Based on a three-year study of toxic and environmentally relevant pollutants from gasoline direct injection (GDI) engines, Swiss researchers have concluded that some GDI engines emit just as many soot particles as unfiltered diesel cars did in the past. Further, the GDI particles carry numerous carcinogenic substances.

The presence of ammonia was first discovered in the upper troposphere in 2016 using the analysis of averaged MIPAS (Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding) infrared limb-emission spectra. There are no factories or farms, and planes are thought to make up most of the pollutants in this area. —Neil Donahue.

The GMR is the first study to assess the global performance of the transport sector and the progress made toward four main objectives: universal access, efficiency, safety, and green mobility. The GMR report focuses on two primary impacts: climate change and air and noise pollution. Non-Annex I countries averaged 4.8% from 2008–2012.

Due to the ICE vehicles combustion, the world is suffering from air pollution and its related problems. It is based on the project that was done from August 2013 to Jan 2016 to understand consumer preferences for the use of electric vehicles in terms of socio-economic variables such as gender, age, income, education and region.

In fact, policies aimed at cutting carbon emissions improve air quality by a similar amount as policies specifically targeting air pollution. The study is the most detailed assessment to date of the interwoven effects of climate policy on the economy, air pollution, and the cost of health problems related to air pollution.
