With this type of engine, reaching the target of 120 g of CO2/km seems realistic by 2012-2013 for high-performance vehicles, with a strong reduction in fuel consumption for the whole vehicle range, MCE-5 suggests. This constitutes a strong response to the durability problem of highly downsized high-loaded engines. Click to enlarge.

The industry needs to consider the technology that will prepare them to meet these low carbon and ultra-low emission requirements. Currently there is on-going discussion for Euro-VII limits, which is likely to introduce CO 2 reporting combining engine test results with a whole vehicle approach to fuel consumption. —Andy Dickinson.
