This statistic displays the average carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from new passenger cars in the European Union (EU-28), by fuel type in grams of carbon dioxide per kilometer (g CO2/km). It shows that emissions for both diesel and petrol decreased in 2016 from the previous year by 2.4 and 0.8 g CO2/km respectively.
