Factors Influencing Emissions

These factors determine the estimated volume of CO₂ emissions your vehicle produces in one year.
Annual mileage
The more kilometers you drive, the higher the level of emissions generated.
Fuel type
Each fuel type has a different CO₂ emission coefficient per liter or kilowatt.
Consumption efficiency
More efficient vehicles consume less and emit less CO₂.
Electric propulsion
Electric vehicles do not emit CO₂ directly, but may have an indirect impact depending on the energy source.
Driving style
Sudden acceleration, frequent braking, and aggressive driving can increase fuel consumption and, consequently, emissions.
Vehicle maintenance
A well-maintained vehicle with clean filters and correct tire pressure operates more efficiently and produces fewer emissions.

Frequently Asked Questions About CO₂ Emissions
Common questions about vehicle emissions and environmental impact.

How are vehicle CO₂ emissions calculated?

Emissions are calculated by multiplying your annual mileage by fuel consumption per 100 km, then multiplying by the CO₂ emission factor for your fuel type (e.g., 2.31 kg CO₂/liter for gasoline).

Which fuel type produces the least CO₂?

Electric vehicles produce zero direct emissions. Among combustion fuels, LPG produces the least CO₂ per liter (1.51 kg), followed by gasoline (2.31 kg) and diesel (2.68 kg).

How can I reduce my vehicle's emissions?

Drive at steady speeds, maintain proper tire pressure, keep the engine well-maintained, reduce unnecessary weight, and consider switching to a more efficient or electric vehicle.

Do electric vehicles really have zero emissions?

Electric vehicles produce zero direct (tailpipe) emissions. However, total lifecycle emissions depend on how the electricity is generated. In Moldova, the energy mix includes both renewable and fossil fuel sources.
