Summary

In recent years, there has been a global trend toward adopting increasingly stricter vehicle fuel efficiency standards. Europe now has the most stringent fuel economy standards in the world. In terms of the Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards, which are sales-weighted averages that must be achieved by each automobile manufacturer, the European Union (EU) reduced the target from 130 grams of CO2 per kilometer (g/km) by 2015 to 95 g/km by 2021. This means that in only six years, each automaker must reduce CO2 emissions by as much as 27 percent, posing a major challenge to the automotive industry.
