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. To achieve 450 ppm, WTW LDV CO 2 emissions decrease 25% from 2000 and 34% between 2010 and 2050.
