As both EV adoption increases and internal combustion engine vehicles have become more fuel efficient, states are seeking to offset lost revenue from the gas tax. With states enacting new kWh taxes on EVs and EV charging, we want to make sure you have the right information. Similar to Iowa, Montana introduced a $0.03

Two new reports—one on technology, the other on policy— released by the International Energy Agency (IEA) outline pathways to improve the fuel efficiency of combustion-engined road vehicles by 50% by the middle of the century, saving as much as four-fifths of current annual global oil consumption. Technology Roadmap.

More than 90% of such vehicles are powered by internal combustion engines burning oil-derived fuels. The researchers found that focusing on the behavioral aspects of consumers in vehicle purchase decisions is key to encouraging the rapid uptake of plug-in hybrid vehicles, battery-electric vehicles, and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.

Because changes in fuel economy take a long time to percolate through the entire fleet, an 18% reduction in fuel used by vehicles purchased in a given year (due to a 20% improvement in their fuel economy) would result in only about a 1% reduction of the fuel used by the entire fleet.

Increasingly efficient conventional combustion-engine vehicles will be key in moving towards a low carbon future, according to the GFEI. While this would be paid back by fuel savings, Fulton assues that to sell the cars, the full $500 billion would need to be offered as incentives to prospective buyers.

As a result, BCG concludes, the electric car faces stiff competition from ICEs (internal combustion engines) and, based solely on total cost of ownership (TCO) economics, will not be the preferred option for most consumers. BCG finds that ICE technologies can reduce CO 2 emissions up to 40% at a cost as low as $50 per percentage of reduction.

Significant engineering work will needed to produce an approach that results in fuel efficiency standards that are cost effective and that accurately represent the effects of fuel consumption reducing technologies. Within vehicle classes, there may be certain subclasses of vehicles (e.g.,
