Increasingly efficient conventional combustion-engine vehicles will be key in moving towards a low carbon future, according to the GFEI. Far better fuel economy from cost-effective conventional technologies can keep fuel demand steady and save close to half the CO 2 emissions from cars by this date.

The steady tightening of standards will first incentivize combustion efficiency and in parallel speed up the deployment of new low-carbon technologies and fuels, such as vehicles running on low-carbon electricity, hydrogen, compressed natural gas or sustainable biofuels. Credibility requires beginning to implement policies now—i.e.
