Ford Mondeo with LPG drive
The medium-sized Ford Mondeo can be ordered with liquid petroleum gas drive (LPG) based on the Flexifuel version that can also be driven with petrol or ethanol, making it a triple-fuel vehicle, Ford Germany has announced.
The Mondeo is fitted with a two-litre Duratec engine with an output of 107 kW/145 hp when driven with petrol. In the LPG mode, power is slightly reduced to 104 kW/141 hp.
The LPG tank is fitted in the spare wheel compartment with the vehicle retaining its normal 70 litre petrol tank, giving it a total range of more than 1,000 kilometres using both fuel modes.
The car sells for 27,500 euros (35,400 dollars) on the German market.
