Citroen DS5 Hybrid is 'Best Eco Car' at Scottish Car of the Year Awards 2012

Citroen's distinctively styled flagship, DS5, has been named 'Best Eco Car' at the Scottish Car of the Year Awards, as voted for by the Association of Scottish Motoring Writers. 'Out greening' three other contenders to the title, the DS5 Hybrid4 stood apart
from the competition with its innovative and ecologically considerate drivetrain, which delivers impressive performance combined with fuel and CO2 efficiency. The advanced, 200 hp full hybrid diesel powertrain combines several technologies to deliver outstanding CO2 emissions as low as 91 g/km.

"Making the most of every drop of fuel is the perpetual quandary of car makers. Whilst some try to go further by skimping on equipment or driving pleasure Citroen DS5 offers all this and much more. It uses ingenious hybrid technology to cut emissions and boost economy, yet it also has all the style and glamour associated with the iconic name," said John Murdoch, President at the Association of Scottish Motoring Writers.
