JATO: new car CO2 emissions rise for the first time in a decade in Europe; diesel down, gasoline up, SUVs up

Green Car Congress

This rise in average CO 2 emissions correlates with a decrease in demand for diesel cars across Europe—which produce lower CO 2 emissions than gasoline cars—and the rising popularity of SUVs, which emit higher average CO 2 emissions of 133.0 g/km, compared to gasoline cars, which had an average of 123.4 g/km CO 2 emitted.

ICCT: decline in diesel sales will have negligible impact on attainment of European CO2 emission standards

Green Car Congress

Other technologies—such as efficiency improvements in gasoline engines as well as the rollout of hybrid electric power trains—offer more compelling and cost-effective pathways to reducing CO 2 emissions from European passenger cars, the ICCT says. For instance, hybrid electric vehicles and diesel cars in the small (e.g.,

EEA: average CO2 emissions from new cars and new vans in Europe increased in 2018

Green Car Congress

This is the first increase in average CO 2 emissions from new vans since the regulation came into force in 2011, following a sharp decrease in 2017. Moreover, the market penetration of zero- and low-emission vehicles, including electric cars, remained slow in 2018. g CO 2 /km) are now very close to those of gasoline cars (123.4

EIA: US energy-related CO2 emissions down 2.4% in 2011 while GDP rose

Green Car Congress

The US Energy Information Administration (EIA) reported that after an increase in 2010 of 3.3%, energy-related carbon dioxide emissions in the US in 2011 decreased by 2.4% (136 million metric tons), while GDP grew by 1.8%. Emissions in 2011 were 526 million metric tons (9%) below the 2005 level. mpg) from 2010 to 2011.

EEA: average CO2 emissions from new cars and new vans in Europe increased again in 2019

Green Car Congress

The market penetration of electric cars remained slow in 2019. Several factors affected this emission increase, including an increase in the average mass and only a limited increase of the share of electric vans (BEV sand PHEV) from 0.8% g CO 2 /km) are now very close to those of gasoline cars (127.6 g CO 2 /km—0.5

EPA trends report sees record levels of average new vehicle fuel economy and CO2 emissions for MY 2012; role of new gasoline vehicle technologies

Green Car Congress

EPA projects advanced transmissions (6+ speeds and CVTs), gasoline direct injection (GDI) systems, and turbocharged engines will be installed on at least 15% of all MY 2013 vehicles. The majority of the emissions and fuel savings from current vehicles, EPA noted, is due to new gasoline vehicle technologies. Click to enlarge.

EPA annual report on CO2, fuel economy and technology trends finds 2012 heading for all-time best; rapid adoption of new technologies

Green Car Congress

Adjusted CO 2 emissions and adjusted fuel economy, MY 1975-2011. Data for MY 2011 are final; data for MY 2012 are preliminary and based on projected vehicle production values provided to EPA by manufacturers. The fleet-wide average real world MY 2011 personal vehicle CO 2 emissions value is 398 g/mi and average fuel economy is 22.4
