Renault Kangoo ECO: Green cargo hauling

Renault is really serious about promoting its ECO² label (besides the funny ad). We can arguably say that the ECO² models a re just the base versions with minor tweaks to reduce CO₂ emissions, but the truth is that the French marque is betting hard on reducing those emissions.

Now it's the time for Renault's Kangoo vehicles. The Kangoo is a panel van which is as large as a Golf yet can haul a full Euro-pallet load. It's ugly but it's also effective, and the 70 and 85 HP versions of it can have the ECO² label: They're built in an ISO 14001-certified plant and produce less than 140 g of CO₂ per km. It's also produced with at least 5 percent of recycled plastics and you can even use up to B30 with full warranties.

Surely, this is something Fiat was thinking about too. But their model is smaller.
