SMMT New Car CO2 Report Launch Event SMMT, London 18 April 2012
Event outline Welcome and introductions by Paul Everitt, Chief Executive, SMMT and Dan Milmo, Industrial Editor, The Guardian. Overview of SMMT’s New Car CO2 Report 2012 by Matt Croucher, Economics Manager, SMMT. Comments from Richard Bruce, Director, UK government’s Office for Low Emission Vehicles and Doug Parr, Chief Scientist, Greenpeace UK. Open Q&A session chaired by Dan Milmo, Industrial Editor, The Guardian.
Overview of SMMT’s New Car CO2 Report 2012 Matthew Croucher – mcroucher@smmt.co.uk 18 April 2012
Making significant progress, but challenges ahead Average new car CO2 – 1997-2011 (SMMT) UK average new car CO2 – 138.1g/km in 2011. Continuous improvement, pace picked up in last 4 years.
Influences on CO2 emissions Technological measures to deliver lower CO2–emitting vehicles Improvements in internal combustion engine (ICE). Development of alternatively fuelled vehicles (AFV). Other influences – aerodynamics, light weighting, efficient tyres etc. Non-test cycle measures, eg gear shift indicators and satellite navigation devices.
2011: A break-through year – breaking 140g/km Diesel share by segment (SMMT) Registrations of AFVs (SMMT) Diesel cars outsell petrol (diesels 15-20% lower CO2 emitting). Alternatively fuelled cars break 25,000 registrations. ‘Mainstream’ electric vehicles on sale. All segments post reductions in average CO2 emissions.
Distribution of the new car market by CO2 New car market by CO2 bands (SMMT) Shift into lower CO2 emitting vehicles. 46.8% of the market below 130g/km and 3.4% below 100g/km, compared with 0.9% and 0% in 2000.
Distribution of the new car market by VED bands New car market by VED bands (SMMT) ‘E’ band most populated in 2011, was ‘G’ band in 2000. 3.4% of the market in ‘A’ band in 2011, was 0.0% in 2000. Just 0.6% of market in top band in 2011, was 4.8% in 2000. Note all data split by current 13 band VED system
Light commercial vehicle (LCV) performance Average UK new car and LCV market distribution by CO2 – 2011 (SMMT) SMMT developing LCV CO2 database. UK average new LCV CO2 – estimated to be 199.2g/km in 2011. LCV face EU CO2 targets – 175g/km in 2014-17, 147g/km by 2020.
Making real world improvements CO2 emissions from all cars in use (DECC) Total CO2 from all cars in use down. – 2010 down 10.2% on 2000 and 3.3% on 2009. Faster fleet replacement aids CO2 reductions from all cars in use.
Challenges ahead Average UK new car and car in use CO2 , and pan EU targets to 2020 (SMMT/EU) EU new car CO2 targets – 130g/km in 2012-15, 95g/km by 2020. Market acceptance of ultra-low carbon vehicles, especially AFVs. Integrated approach needed to support shift to lower carbon fleet.
