The Automotive industry is becoming «greener»…
Global vehicle sales growth will be driven by green cars (Hybrids, EVs and alternate fuels)
…in a highly regulated environment with conflicting requirements…
Pedestrian safety, air-conditioning, crash-test requirements lead to added weight and thus increase CO2 emissions
…in which CO2 reduction has become the key driver…
…with the risk of not meeting CO2 targets being very real.
By 2020, in Europe, each OEM that fails to meet a fleet average of 95 gCO2/km will be fined 95€/gCO2 x total annual vehicles sold
