Stage 1 remapping in Haringey
More than half of Haringey households had no car in the 2021 Census: 52.7% across the council area, against 23.3% for England and Wales, and only 13.7% of working residents drove to work. Diesel is a small share of what is kept, too. At the end of June 2026, 13.9% of privately kept cars in the Haringey council area were diesel, one of the lowest shares of the 104 largest towns we cover, with petrol on 68.6%. Stage 1 remapping applies to turbocharged petrol engines as well as diesels: it is a software change to the fuel, boost and timing settings, kept within the engine's limits. In town traffic the benefit is smoother pull at low revs rather than outright speed.

Driving in and around Haringey
The borough runs from high ground around Highgate and Muswell Hill down to flat land by the River Lea, so a local round can include steep climbs. That is where a diesel van's extra mid-range torque shows: fewer downshifts and less strain with a load on board. Haringey's council area had 2,477 privately kept vans at the end of June 2026, 89% of them diesel. London's ULEZ covers the whole borough and charges cars and vans daily, and a remap does not change whether a vehicle pays. The A1, A10, A406 and A503 are among the main roads. In 2025 MOT tests across N postcodes, the Ford Transit and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter led the diesel vans, and the Mercedes-Benz E Class led the cars.
