Passenger cars in Denmark emitted almost six million metric tons of carbon dioxide (MtCO₂) in 2022. This was the lowest figure recorded since 1993. Car emissions in Denmark plummeted 12 percent in 2020 due to COVID-19 restrictions. However, unlike total EU-27 car emissions, which rebounded sharply in the following years, those in Denmark remained below pre-pandemic levels.
