In addition to strict fuel and emission standards, reducing
greenhouse gas emissions will require passenger cars and
light-duty trucks to have improved aerodynamics, fuel-efficient
tires, and reduced weight. In support of the California Air
Resources Board's Advanced Clean Cars program, these technologies
were assessed for their potential in reducing carbon dioxide
(CO₂) emissions and increasing fuel economy in future
passenger vehicles. Model year 2014 vehicles were studied to
determine the extent to which these load reducing technologies
have already been applied. Using manufacturer-reported
information, the aerodynamic drag and tire rolling resistance
were estimated for each vehicle model. Vehicle curb weight was
combined with other vehicle specifications to evaluate the weight
of each vehicle. For more go to the announcement at:
