Reducing the emission of CO2 in motor vehicles is becoming an increasingly important goal and will lead to an increase in manufacturing and development costs.
On the other hand, higher CO2 emissions will lead to additional costs for automobile buyers, for example as a result of CO2 taxation and from the additional costs incurred by automobile manufacturers in the form of CO2 certificate trading or compensation payments.
The attached paper tries to determine how much can be expended for electrical equipment and electronics to make a reduction in CO2 feasible. This commercial analysis is supported by data and illustrated using several examples. In advance it can be said that, with the help of a few demand-driven applications, a realistic and commercial CO2 reduction of approximately 20 grams of CO2 per km can be achieved.
A high figure that is worth taking a closer look at.
