AFV are alternative fuel vehicles: electric, LPG, NG-biomethane, E85, biodiesel, hybrid and plug-in vehicles. The average per-km CO 2 emissions for gasoline-fueled cars was 128.62 grams; for diesel, 127.16 However, the preference for diesel seems to be falling, making up just over half the cars sold in 2013.

Yet the growth in oil demand from trucks has outpaced all other sectors—including passenger cars, aviation, industry and petrochemical feedstocks—since 2000 and contributed 40% to global oil demand growth, a similar contribution as cars. The result is that direct CO 2 emissions from road freight transport decline by 2.5

Approximately 32% of the heavy-duty transit vehicles operating in California are diesel-fueled. For agencies that are operating diesel buses, diesel hybrids represent about 50% of bus purchases, even though there is no purchase requirement. Urban bus fleets had to select either a diesel path or an alternative-fuel path.

Moving goods by road consumes about 50% of all diesel produced; 80% of the global net increase in diesel use since 2000 comes from road freight. Ambitious fuel economy and CO 2 emission standards will help widespread deployment of these measures. It is critical that these standards include heavy freight trucks.
