Die europäische Autoindustrie hat ihre selbst gesteckten Ziele nicht erreicht. Die Emissionsrate ist durch modernere Autos nur um 0,2% gesunken.
Car industry progress on climate grinds to a halt

European carmakers are failing to deliver the lower carbon emissions they pledged to the European Commission in 1998, with emission rates from new cars down by just 0.2% last year, the worst performance on record.
New figures published today by Transport and Environment (T&E), show new cars sold in Europe in 2006 by members of the Association of European Automobile Manufacturers (ACEA) emitted 160g of carbon dioxide (CO2) per kilometre on average, down less than half a gram on the previous year. ACEA, which accounted for 81% of sales in Europe in 2006, committed to reach 140g/km by 2008 but will now almost certainly miss that target.
The 2006 figures for Japanese manufacturers (JAMA) stood at 161g/km followed by Korean (KAMA) producers at 164g/km on average. The overall figure for all carmakers for the average new car sold in Europe in 2006 stands at 160g/km down from 161g/km in 2005, a reduction of 0.7%.
