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.,

Volkswagen Group to begin equipping TSI and TFSI engines with gasoline particulate filters from June 2017

Green Car Congress

This will reduce particulate emissions from the direct injection gasoline engines by up to 90%. Although gasoline direct injection (GDI) enables downsizing with its increased power and lower fuel consumption, it also results in higher particulate emissions. 2016) “Vehicular Emissions in Review,” SAE Int.
