When does the AdBlue tank need to be filled up? Also of note, the size of the AdBlue tank varies according to model. As with fuel, several factors affect AdBlue consumption, including vehicle type, engine power, weather conditions and driving style. But they will have to top up the AdBlue tank when required. The SCR technology on Blue dCi cars changes nothing for the driver. * AdBlue is a trademark of the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA).
The new SCR emission control system has no impact on engine performance, but requires a slight change in habits, as AdBlue needs to be topped up regularly. This last transforms NOx into inoffensive nitrogen and water vapor, as shown in the diagram below: On diesel engines, the oxidation catalyst located on the exhaust line will now be equipped with this technology, which works with a urea-based liquid solution called AdBlue*. Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technology “cleans” exhaust gases to reduce NOx emissions and eliminate virtually all fine particles. The technology will be gradually implemented across all Dacia and Renault ranges in the coming weeks. The technology reduces the pollutant emissions of engines with absolutely no impact on performance! As Groupe Renault is using a urea-based solution called AdBlue, it is changing the name of the diesel engines in question to Blue dCi.Īlready rolled out on Groupe Renault light commercial vehicles, SCR technology is now being fitted on the group’s passenger cars, starting in June 2018 with Dacia Duster in two power versions, Blue dCi 95 and Blue dCi 115. Groupe Renault is modernizing its diesel engines with an SCR system considered as the most effective nitrogen oxide (NOx) post-treatment solution.
