Additionally, suggested one of the speakers, advanced SIDI (spark-ignited, direct-injection) engines can take light-duty market share back from diesels in Europe based on the same trends. However, prior to the remarks on climate change and the regulatory response, he spent a few minutes discussing the efforts on urban pollution—e.g.,

Light trucks. This approach would allow credit trading among all vehicles a manufacturer produces, both cars and light trucks, as well as between companies. Eligible innovative technologies include those that are used in one or more current vehicle models, but that are not yet in widespread use in the light-duty fleet.
