mpg, or 16%, since 2004. The positive trend beginning in 2005 reverses a long period of increasing CO 2 emissions and decreasing fuel economy from 1987 through 2004. emissions have moved through four phases: A rapid decrease from 1975 through 1981; A slower decrease until reaching a valley in 1987; A gradual increase until 2004; and.
Based on the final Trends data through MY 2012, CO 2 emissions have decreased by 85 g/mi, or 18%, since MY 2004, and fuel economy has increased by 4.3 Light trucks (pickups, minivans/vans, and truck SUVs), accounted for 36% of all light-duty vehicle production in MY 2012, the second lowest level since 1993. mpg, or 22%.

The Trends report has been published annually since 1975 and covers all passenger cars, sport utility vehicles, minivans, and all but the largest pickup trucks and vans. Chrysler-Fiat had the highest CO2 emissions and lowest fuel economy, followed by GM.
Several dozen prototypes on 15-passenger van since 2004; now in second generation development; no production plans. The resulting fuel efficiency improvements mean lower CO2 emissions and less fossil fuel consumption and, therefore, less pollution. Daimler/Mercedes Took over Daimler/Chrysler Sprinter PHEV program.
