The increased pressure to further focus on vehicle emissions and fuel efficiency performance has driven the US and other countries to evaluate the adequacy of their fuel and vehicle standards. A 10 ppm average gasoline sulfur limit is likely in the US by the fall of 2015, while we expect Beijing to implement a 10 ppm limit as early as 2012.

In Helsinki, Finland, two driverless buses were employed last year—one of the first programs of its kind. The research found that “traffic emissions were reduced by one-third, and 95 percent less space was required for public parking,” and the vehicle fleet necessary would only be 3 percent of today’s fleet.
