of all new car sales in 2017, exceeded their specific emission targets for 2017. The demand for passenger cars has been the main contributing factor to the trend in CO 2 emissions since 2000: when demand decreases, the emissions follow.

The SMP model calculates 2000?2050 The Ford team updated the SMP model with historical data for 2000, 2005, and 2010, and extended the model to calculate the total CO 2 emissions (tonnes) and the TTW (tank-to-wheel) emission rate (g CO 2 /km) for the new vehicle fleet. They converted from an absolute amount to scale relative to 2000.

These ongoing improvements mean average CO 2 is still a third (-33.1%) lower than in 2000. More than a fifth of new car models now available are zero-emission capable, yet they make up just 5% of sales. to a new low of 165.4 For pure battery-powered vehicles, take-up is even lower (0.5%). in 2017 to 119,821 units.

An analysis of sales- and activity-weighted fuel efficiency for new jet aircraft from 1960 to 2008 shows that while aircraft efficiency has doubled since 1960, advancements in the efficiency of commercial aircraft have stagnated in the last two decades. But little improvement has come in the past two decades. Source: ICCT. Click to enlarge.
