"The average real-world fuel consumption of #PHEVs in Europe is 4.0–4.4 L/100 km for private vehicles and 7.6–8.4 L/100 km for company cars compared to an average of 1.6–1.7 L/100 km in #WLTP type approval ... The average real-world electric driving share is about 45%–49% for private cars and about 11%–15% for company cars. ... In contrast, the official WLTP type-approval procedure assumes the share ... at around 70%–85%"

#Volkswagen: fuck that! The new #Golf 1.5 TSI "eHybrid" (Plug-In-Hybrid) uses a mere 0,3 l/100km of gasoline, that's 333 km with one liter! The Dieselgate was just an appetizer, thanks to #WLTP sorcery we can now claim ANY SHIT!

"The average gap observed between the real-world and the official type-approval average ... fuel consumption ... was 23.7% for petrol cars and 18.1% for diesel cars ... For new plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) ... the real-world CO2 emissions were on average 3.5 times (4 l/100km ...) higher than the type-approval values ... largely because they are not being charged and driven fully electrically as frequently as assumed"

First Commission report on real-world CO2 emissions of cars and vans using data from on-board fuel consumption monitoring devices

Today, the Commission published its first report on the real-world CO2 emissions of new passenger cars and vans. The report is based on data collected in 2021 from fuel consumption monitors installed on-board of these vehicles.
