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

Green Car Congress

MARCH 19, 2018

The current decline is ales of diesel light duty vehicle in Europe does not put EU CO 2 targets out of reach of automakers, according to a new analysis by the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT). Hybrid electric vehicles can provide efficiency gains over diesel power trains at lower CO 2 abatement costs.

At 48 volts, a VTES electric supercharger will transform 7kW of battery power into a highly boosted charge of air for downsized gasoline and diesel engines. There will be no torque deficit or other tradeoffs from essential engine downsizing and higher gearing, which now dominates the development of internal combustion engines.

JUNE 15, 2011

EVs will likely account for approximately 8% of new car sales in Europe by 2020, supported by consumers’ higher willingness to pay for green technologies, the region’s high emissions standards, and high gasoline and diesel fuel taxes. BCG sees fewer levers available for diesel-fueled ICEs, which are already optimized.

SEPTEMBER 21, 2009

All-electric cars with the range of modern day petrol or diesel-equipped engines are still 20 years away, says Mercedes-Benz research and development boss Thomas Weber. Getting to twice or three times that is still some way off, and that’s why Mercedes-Benz intend to pursue the hybrid route in the meantime, he explains.
