T&E also analyses a report by the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association (ACEA) which again looked at ways to reduce road transport’s greenhouse gas emissions. In the paper ACEA asked specific trade associations what they could do to reduce road transport emissions. At the same time the vehicle manufacturers did not propose any further CO2 standards for vehicles after 2021 or any further improvements in the efficiency of vehicles. Here T&E reviews some of the key assumptions of the ACEA study.
