Researchers at Jilin University (China) have investigated the effect of gasoline components on fuel economy, combustion and emissions in a GDI (gasoline-direct-injection) engine. The team subsequently followed up this first study with a second, exploring the effects in a PFI (port-fuel-injection) engine. —Han et al.

DOE published a final rule on 12 June 2000. The PEF adopted by DOE in the 2000 Final Rule is based, in part, on the existing regulatory approach which provides procedures determining the petroleum-equivalent fuel economy of non-EV alternative fueled vehicles. DOE has not updated this since the June 2000 Final Rule.

Because diesel cars typically consume less fuel than gasoline equivalents they emit, on average, 15-20% less CO 2. These ongoing improvements mean average CO 2 is still a third (-33.1%) lower than in 2000. million strong new car market still powered, wholly or in part, by gasoline or diesel. to a new low of 165.4
