No, we do not stutter. We were also not fine, atomized or too much CO2 the brain. The car is really so: Panda Panda. The mini-Fiat is currently the smallest car in the natural gas market and misses his owner at the pump constantly new happiness.
Usually you buy a car, without even remotely wondering about it: Yes, where I fill up really? Dispensers are available on almost every street corner. The supply is protected around the clock. The purchase of a natural gas car is however a completely different process. First you click on the website www.gibgas.de to a beautifully and everything about what is probably the cleanest alternative of driving. And in addition, where you can fill up on his doorstep.

He is currently the smallest series-gas car in the world. In his car stuck bottom two gas tanks that can hold 13 kilograms squeezed so-called CNG (compressed natural gas), such as natural gas is known scientifically. is a normal gasoline tank, it also yet. For all cases. Thus, the Panda Panda is bivalent because his engine just tolerate both, gasoline or natural gas. Generally, however, should be given gas. Finally, it protects the environment and even your wallet. Who would have thought that you can drive it in modern times with 3.50 € for 100 miles? Hello! Something no other car, not even the new smart diesel. And it still has the Panda Panda the green ribbon around. For anything other than hydrogen burns as clean as natural gas in the engine. Zero particulate matter, 23 percent less CO2 (114 g / km) than a comparable gasoline engines and up to 80 percent less hydrocarbons. Who the little ones with lead foot driving around the corners, the rewards of the 1.2-liter four-cylinder with around four kilos consumption per 100 kilometers. And the cost just only between three and 3.50 €, depending on where is fueled. The price per kilo sprinkled 65-95 cents per kilo.

A little practice it in the Panda Panda waiver only, it is about pure power. Natural gas has less energy content than gasoline. Thus, the power of the engine falls from 60 to 52 hp. Flott from the traffic light you come to while away, but mostly, the car in front slow anyway. And somehow, this eco-Panda animated and not the grass. The everyday things like shopping or go to school the children work with him very well.
Only on the freeway there is a lack of power to the Panda. The Little should better stay away from the left lane. Fiat is officially at 140 km / h top speed, but it needs light-years until he actually arrived there. Even small inclines let the car get tired. His favorite tempo swings themselves between 100 and 120 km / hr.
greater than its reputation Inside, the Panda Panda except for the lack of rev counter and a small switch to natural gas or gasoline can not be distinguished from its normal engine counterparts. The seating position and the overview are the best, even the steering wheel height adjustment. It does not feel like a small car. Front and side airbags, ABS, an electric power steering and electric windows and central locking are standard on board.

Do not squint at the comparable gasoline version, the 3200 Euro cheaper. This is the Fiat Panda with fuel costs of 6.90 Euro/100 km, so twice as much as of natural gas equivalent. In any case, should first be sought from the local gas supplier. Sometimes there are grants on the new car purchase or vouchers for refueling. Really good it goes to the Italians, already the biggest gas fans in Europe. No wonder. Your state is 1,500 euros to the purchase and when the car less than 120 grams of CO2 per kilometer blows in the air, be paid an additional 500 €.
740 gas stations (as at end March) are now scattered all over Germany. A quarter of them already have the new nozzles. Filling up work so that similar light as the diesel or gasoline, only takes a few minutes. 54 772 natural gas vehicles were for Germany Early 2007 in Flensburg registered.
