BRIEFING JUNE 2016 CcaOr2s emissions in the EU: from new passenger Car manufacturers’ performance in 2015 The purpose of this briefing paper is to provide a summary of CO2 emissions levels of new passenger cars in the European Union (EU) in 2015. The briefing is based on the preliminary dataset recently released by the European Environment Agency (EEA) on monitoring CO2 emissions from new passenger cars in the EU. The EEA data show that the mandatory emission reduction target set by the EU legislation for 2015 has been met on average. New cars sold in the EU in 2015 had average CO2 emissions of 119.6?g?CO2 /km, which was 8% below the 2015 target, and 3% lower than in 2014. As a follow-up to the previous year’s briefing,1 this paper details manufacturers’ performance in terms of CO2 emissions reduction, fuel and technology trends, and market share. The paper focuses on differences between Member States, as well as between the major manufacturer groups. It also discusses the impact of the supercredit provision on the average CO2 emissions values of manufacturer groups. All manufacturer groups met their mandatory CO2 emission limits in 2015, and some of them are well on their way to reaching the 2020/21 target. The 2020/21 target requires an additional reduction of approximately 27% in average CO2 emissions compared to 2015 levels. PSA Group and Toyota-Daihatsu have average CO2 emissions levels that 1 Zacharof, N., Tietge, U., and Mock, P., “CO2 emissions from new passenger cars in the EU: Car manufacturers’ performance in 2014,” The International Council on Clean Transportation.
