The Automaker Rankings report examines the emissions of both global warming and smog-forming pollution from of the automakers. To develop the ranking, UCS averaged the per-mile emissions for each light-duty vehicle sold by each automaker. Source: UCS. Click to enlarge. Source: UCS. Click to enlarge. Methodology.

This year’s forecast recognizes an industry trend for slightly bigger engine sizes in Europe and China as automakers adapt powertrain strategies to tackle updated emissions regulations developed for real-world driving conditions. The global turbo business is expected to reach almost $12 billion in industry sales in 2021.

Additionally, suggested one of the speakers, advanced SIDI (spark-ignited, direct-injection) engines can take light-duty market share back from diesels in Europe based on the same trends. However, prior to the remarks on climate change and the regulatory response, he spent a few minutes discussing the efforts on urban pollution—e.g.,

The initiative intends to accelerate the widespread deployment of significantly improved fuels and vehicles (passenger to light truck to heavy duty commercial vehicles) by 2030. High-research octane number (RON) fuels are known to enable more efficient, higher-performance SI operation via engine downsizing and boosting. Earlier post.)

Groundbreaking research in the last 10 years has identified combustion engine strategies that—especially if optimized to run on new fuels—would offer significantly higher efficiency and produce fewer engine-out pollutants than current engines. Fuel research will focus on low-GHG advanced biofuel/petroleum blends.

It is a high octane fuel with combustion characteristics that allow engines specifically designed for methanol fuel to match the best efficiencies of diesels while meeting current pollutant emission regulations. It is a safe fuel. The toxicity (mortality) is comparable to or better than gasoline. Performance of methanol FFVs—i.e.,
