Following review, CO 2 targets may be adjusted in 2016, to be reviewed every three years. Downsizing, gasoline direct injection (GDI), and start-stop will be the key technologies helping original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) achieve emission targets by 2015. In 2014, any weight increase in new cars will be studied.
