It is with mixed emotions that we have to report the reduction of Dirty emissions from the Land Rover Freelander.
Previously we have gleefully enthused in posts such as Freelander is Back just how dirty the 4x4 can be and were delighted when the opportunity to feature dirty jodhpur clad posh totty promoting land rover came our way and although Dirty Jugs didn't have an exclusive on this we do believe we focussed on the main issue.
It is unsurprising that team D J is a little taken aback with the latest press release from Land Rover announced that the new Freelander features a revolutionary Stop Start system that not only improves fuel efficiency but reduces CO2 emissions.
Time for My Freelander to brush up on the Stop Start technology to add more helpful instructions to owners that want to maintain and service their Freelander themselves.
The crux of Stop-Start is that the engine reacts when it suspect that it is not needed - when the vehicle is standing in traffic, in neutral and the clutch out it simple shuts itself off. Any indication that the driver wants to resume the journey - hey presto it starts again - thereby elimintating unecessary pollution and saving fuel.
