fuel taxes increased between 2012 and 2015 in some large countries, and first steps towards removing lower tax rates on diesel compared to gasoline are taken, but apart from that there are no signs that the polluter pays principle determines the energy tax landscape more strongly in 2015 than in 2012. of emissions.

CO 2 emissions from transportation sector by scenario in the study. The key to obtaining significant reductions in transportation-related GHG emissions is to increase the cost of driving. The economy-wide CO 2 prices applied increase the cost of driving only marginally with respect to the business-as-usual case.

More research, development, and demonstration studies are needed to lay the foundation for such a long-term transformation. There are many options available for reducing the fuel, energy, and GHG emissions impacts of LDVs. However, the flexibility and lower costs of PHEVs appear to trump this simplicity, certainly in the nearer term.

The total cost of purchasing and driving one—the cost of ownership—has fallen nearly to parity with a typical gasoline-fueled car. Most automotive manufacturers say they plan to use renewable energy in the future, but for now, most battery production relies on electric grids largely powered by fossil fuels.
