Fuel economy

A more stringent standard for fuel economy (WLTP) was introduced from September 2017, and this model was not required to undergo that test. Its fuel economy measured under the previous test system was 44 - 61 mpg. However these figures are less likely to be achievable in real world driving and so should never be compared to another car's mpg which was measured under the newer, more realistic WLTP system.

The most frugal engine is the 1.6-litre diesel mated to the automatic gearbox. This variant returns 61.4mpg on an average run. Insurance groups span from 15 to 22 while Chrysler dealers should be competitive and won’t be as expensive as the more well-established premium brands like Volkswagen.

The lowest emitting car in the Delta range is the 1.6-litre diesel mated to the automatic gearbox. It emits 120g/km of CO2.

The Chrysler Delta should fare quite well. The car is based on the platform of latest generation of the Fiat Bravo so any niggles will have hopefully been resolved.
