not realy, they give the car manufacturs recommended amount.
Always pays to dilute in the ratio of the product supplier, so long as that is equal to or greater than the manufacturer.
Rember its not just anti freeze its also an anti corrisve, lubricant and aids cooling .

got the information from my haynes manual guys

cooling system : ethylene glycol based antifreeze with corrosion inhibiotr

50 % antifreeze mixture protects down to -37 oc
55% antifreeze mixture protects down to -45oc

diesel model all model 7.1 litres
1.0 and 1.1 litre engines 5.7 litres
1.4 litre engines 5.5 litres
1.6 8v engine 5.8 litrees
1.6 16v engines 6.1 litres

hopes this helps
