The FCAI is supportive of moves by Government to ensure that Australia continues to have a strong energy future and acknowledges that lower motor vehicle CO2 emissions deliver better fuel efficiency.
However, a whole of Government approach is required to incorporate all associated issues, including fuel quality standards, which have a significant impact on vehicles’ ability to meet both CO2 targets and air pollution emission standards. This approach is recognised as necessary globally by industry and regulators alike.
