BMW tops the chart in global CO2 cuts
November 6, 2009 by Matt Brogan
For the second year running BMW has cut its average CO2 emissions per car by more than any other automotive manufacturer.
According to an independent report published by the European Federation for Transport and Environment, the average reduction across the industry was 3.3 per cent, while BMW more than trebled that amount with 10.2 per cent.
BMW’s success in reducing CO2 is thanks primarily to its EfficientDynamics programme which incorporates a wide variety of fuel-saving and emissions-reducing measures across the whole vehicle range as standard. Many of its competitors sell fuel efficiency packages as options.
As further recognition of the class-leading position BMW Group vehicles command courtesy of EfficientDynamics technologies, the marque has scooped two more prestigious awards. The UK fleet industry presented the BMW Group with Fleet Car Manufacturer of the Year and the Industry Innovation Award.
BMW has also been named the “Most sustainable car company in the world” in the latest Dow Jones Sustainability Index for the fifth year in a row. Since its inception in 1999 BMW is the only automotive organisation to have featured every year on the index.

Well done BMW!!
The Giant German Teuton storms on !!!
Not surprised……………
I think the Japanese should start to worry, Germans seem to be re emerging as the engineering marvels they were in the past, reliability across all German Brands is picking up and they lead the field in many areas.
Congratulations BMW! And people think BMWs are just for tossers, those people who think that are the jealous ones in the world!
