Diesel has played a major role in the European Union’s efforts to reduce CO 2 emissions from the automotive fleet; the market share of fuel-efficient new diesel cars in the European Union has remained above 50% since 2010. This projected shift in market share has raised some concerns over the cost of attainting CO 2 emission targets.
