Due to increased test numbers, JATO has a larger and more robust sample of vehicles from which to calculate the volume-weighted impact on NEDC-correlated CO2 values under WLTP testing. Significant progress is still needed for AFVs to plug the gap left by the declining diesel market, if the trend towards gasoline vehicles continues.
