Greenpeace spots a dangerous miscalculation

According to a new Greenpeace study, the car industry’s sales plans for more passenger cars with combustion engines are incompatible with the climate target of 1.5 degrees.

According to the study, Toyota, VW and Hyundai/Kia want to sell at least twice as many diesel and petrol cars as their remaining CO2 budget would allow. The study shows that the planned overproduction for the entire car industry is about 400 million internal combustion cars – about five times the number of cars produced worldwide in 2021.
