Methane
– Methane (*) . . . . . . . . kg (approx.) 13
(*) The amount of methane depends on
the outside temperature, the supply pres-
sure, the quality of the gas and the type of
refuelling system. Total cylinder volume
about 77 litres.IMPORTANT Please note that, when us-
ing a fuel like methane, the range can vary
greatly as it depends on the temperature
of the gas in the cylinder as well as on the
vehicle driving and maintenance condi-
tions.Methane heats up during filling and cools
down during driving, undergoing changes
in pressure that reduce the quantity that
can be used.
It should also be pointed out that whilst
the vehicle is being run in (up to around
3,000 km) fuel consumption may be high-
er than the figures given. Recommended fuels

FUEL SYSTEM (methane)
Electronic injection specifically for meth -
ane.
Type: timed, sequential Multipoint.
Injection pressure: approx. 6 bar.
Stoichiometric metering of the air/meth -
ane gas mixture.
The methane injection system is con-
trolled by the dedicated control unit us-
ing the sensors already on the vehicle, in-
cluding the Lambda sensor for controlling
the fuel metering.
IGNITION
Static advance, electronic, integrated with
the injection.ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM
Engine cooling system with pressure re-
duction unit heating circuit subject to ex-
treme cooling during operation.
PERFORMANCE
Top speed in km/h.
Running on petrol:
– Cargo versions: .............................. 157
– Combi versions: ............................. 155
– Qubo versions: ................................ 155
Running on methane: ......................... 149
Modifications or repairs to
the fuel system that are not
carried out properly or do not take
the system technical specifications in-
to account can cause malfunctions
leading to a fire risk.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
N.B.The trip computer data concerning
range, average consumption and instan-
taneous consumption are not available for
this version.
The fuel consumption figures, given in the
table below, are determined on the basis
of the homologation tests laid down by
specific European Directives.The procedures below are followed for
measuring consumption:
– urban cycle: begins with cold starting,
followed by driving simulating the use of
the vehicle in town;
– extra-urban cycle: driving that simulates
using the vehicle out of town with fre-
quent acceleration in all gears; the speed
varies from 0 to 120 km/h;
– combined consumption: determined
through a weighting of about 37% of the
urban cycle and 63% of the extra-urban
cycle.IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic
conditions, weather conditions, driving
style, state of the vehicle in general, trim
level/equipment/
accessories, use of the climate control, ve-
hicle load, presence of a roof rack and oth-
er situations that adversely affect the aero-
dynamics, may lead to consumption figures
that differ from those measured (see
Saving fuel” in the Starting and
driving” chapter in the booklet).
