Fuel Efficiency Ratings

Each New Car displayed in Sandicliffe showrooms has a colour-coded fuel efficiency rating alongside - just like the one below and similar to the ones seen on new fridges and washing machines.

The coding is from band A to G. Bands A and B represent cars that emit the least CO2, as well as having lower car tax. The lower the emission band, the lower the tax you'll pay.

The label is also a guide to the running costs you can expect for that car over a 12,000-mile period. This enables you to compare how much different cars cost to run.

Car Emissions and Running Cost Calculator

In addition to showing the Miles Per Gallon (MPG), the Carbon Dioxide per Kilometer (CO2/KM), and Road Fund Licence costs, the calculator will show you the tax due for company car drivers.
