The committee also voted to limit electronically the top speed of vans to 120 km/h (75 mph). Manufacturers would have to produce, in addition to older, heavier or polluting models, a sufficient number of cleaner—or more fuel efficient—models to achieve a balance of 147g in 2020, or face penalties.

Last July, Automobilwoche sat down for an interview with Duesmann, where he said that the Audi would focus on making cleaner, more efficient, and environmentally friendly engines that could reduce CO2 and pollutant emissions. Audi debuts e-tron GT: 293 mile range, 155 MPH top speed, 590 HP, $99,900 starting price.

Carbon dioxide emissions from road transport in the Netherlands could be reduced by 30% if motorway speed limits in the Netherlands were set at 80 km/h (50 mph). Lower speed limits would also improve air pollution, noise nuisance, possibly congestion and traffic safety. Click to enlarge. mt for delivery vans.

At the same time, CO2 emissions have been reduced by a similar amount. Up to a reference mass of 2380 kg, the complete vehicle has its emission characteristics tested on a chassis dynamometer, with the result being shown in pollutants per km. mph) the diesel engine kicks in. The manufacturer can choose either of these methods.

Along with our project partners, AUDI AG is realizing a method which puts CO2-neutral mobility within reach. Located far from the coastline, they harness wind averaging 30 km/h (19 mph) to produce about 40% more energy than onshore stations. If necessary, this energy can flow from the gas network back to the power grid at any time.

CO2 from cars does not contribute to smog and is not harmful to human health but it is one of the leading contributors to global warming. As a result, the plug-ins burn much less fuel, thereby significantly reducing CO2 emissions. This high-pollution moment is referred to as a cold start.
