Volkswagen just missed CO2 targets
Source: Heise.de added 21st Jan 2021The Volkswagen Group slightly missed the European Union’s fleet targets for carbon dioxide emissions (CO 2 ) last year. In the pool formed with smaller manufacturers for CO 2 billing, the average emissions of newly sold cars were 99, 8 grams per kilometer driven and thus 0.5 grams above the weight-specific target value, as Volkswagen announced on Thursday in Wolfsburg.
In the fourth quarter, however, there will be no further negative impact on earnings for the group because provisions were made early on. The EU Commission has yet to officially confirm the emission values. Volkswagen boss Herbert Diess had already announced that the targets could be missed by less than a gram. The Volkswagen core brand VW was able to reduce its CO 2 emissions by 22 Percent compared to the year 2019. The growing supply of electric cars, which are included in the statistics with zero grams of CO 2 , should make a noticeable contribution to this.
Around 22 Percentage is said to have decreased fleet consumption at Volkswagen’s core brand VW.

In the EU, stricter requirements for CO 2 emissions have applied since last year. Industry-wide, this should be an average of 95 grams per kilometer driven. Every car manufacturer has individual goals to meet depending on the market position and the weight of the cars produced. If the real values differ, penalties are imminent: Per vehicle sold and average gram of CO 2 are too much 95 Euro due.
