A study of major car manufacturers' progress in cutting CO2 emissions in the year 2007.
This report is the third T&E has published on the progress Europe’s major car manufacturers have made in reducing CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of new cars. The first report was published in October 2006, followed by a second in November 20072.
This latest report comes at a critical time. Europeans are paying record prices for petrol and diesel, post-Kyoto climate targets are under discussion, and there are increased concerns about Europe’s dependence on imported oil and gas.
Global competitors are bold in pursuing their industrial futures, and so should the EU.
A T&E note outlines why allowing fuels – synthetic or bio – in cars makes no environmental, economic, or industrial sense.
A new T&E briefing sets out how targeted support can help middle and low-income households to access EVs.
