Think the commercial is still Euro6 ie no stop/start or DEF as opposed to the SE/HSE etc which have these and are Euro6b compliant

Now I am confused! I know the Commercial is still at 213g/km, rather than 203, but had no idea that the car version had arrived at 6b. Are you sure about this?

Would seem I'm talking P h and should read the stuff before I spout it
Here's a quote from the MY16 brief as regards the commercial version -
The EU6b emissions standard has been achieved with the introduction of a Diesel Exhaust Fluid
(DEF) after-treatment system to all diesel cars which sprays the DEF solution into the exhaust
system to neutralise harmful gases, specifically CO2 and nitrogen oxide. This in turn reduces
emissions of nitrogen oxide by half compared to the EU5 standard. DEF is an aqueous urea
solution made with 32.5% high-purity urea and 67.5% deionized water.
The N1 Commercial derivative (Commercial SE in the UK) is not affected by the transition to
EU6b until one year later. Therefore at 16MY these vehicles will retain EU5 status and will not be
fitted with the EU6b system. They will therefore continue with the same fuel economy and CO²
figures at 15MY (SDV6 188kw = 213g/km).

Well done, thats cleared that up then.
Either way it feels quite a bit sharper. My old one is pretty quick but does feel lazy on take off by comparison?

Think I'm confusing myself but I'll plead incompetence due to several Estrellas' consumed at dinner
