What Is a Vehicle Carbon Footprint?
A vehicle's carbon footprint is the amount of carbon dioxide it emits due to the fuel burned over the distance travelled. It reflects the environmental impact of transport.
How is it calculated?
How Is It Calculated?
CO₂ = (distance ÷ 100) × consumption × fuel CO₂ factor
Petrol ≈ 2,31 kg CO₂/L, diesel ≈ 2,68 kg CO₂/L.
- Enter the distance, consumption and fuel type.
Frequently Asked Questions
Don't electric vehicles produce any carbon?
There are no direct exhaust emissions; however, there may be an indirect carbon footprint depending on how the electricity used is generated.
