In early 2020, UK-based independent testing firm Emissions Analytics published a study claiming that tire particulate wear emissions were 1,000 times worse than exhaust emissions ( earlier post ). As a result, distance-specific mass and number emissions can be derived, which can then be compared to equivalent tire metrics.
It has a range of some 400 km (249 miles). Auckland Transport has also advanced its zero-emissions target from its vehicle exhausts to 2030, from an earlier target of 2040, subject to council funding. The bus is fitted with a Ballard fuel cell and ZF drive system. The bus will be refuelled at the Ports of Auckland with green hydrogen.
The cleaner engine is able to deliver ultra-low NO x by managing exhaust gas temperatures to ensure rapid catalyst light-off and by maintaining aftertreatment temperatures at optimum operating conditions in all driving conditions.
Wear and tear from brakes, tires and road surfaces will soon overtake car exhaust fumes as the leading source of fine particles released into the air by road traffic, according to a new OECD report. Heavy electric vehicles with long-distance batteries could compound the problem even as they slash emissions from engine exhaust.
Volvo Trucks and Deutsche Post DHL Group have signed a cooperation agreement to accelerate the shift to zero-exhaust-emission vehicles. DHL intends to intensify its transition to heavy electric trucks by deploying a total of 44 new electric Volvo trucks on routes in Europe.
kg and permits a driving radius of a good 400 kilometers (249 miles) in the WLTP cycle. The exhaust gas contains significantly less carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides (NO x ), while the share of soot or particulates is minimal. The total CNG tank capacity is currently 115 liters or 17.3 These are added to the fuels.

Today we fix that, with a foursome of distressed Chevrolet FC95 Corvairs in an old-timey boneyard about 30 miles north of Denver, Colorado. Speedway is a couple of miles east of Interstate 25 and sprawls over a large expanse of High Plains land, with a nice view of Longs Peak to the southwest.
exhaust emissions declined by 82% and 49%, respectively. The researchers created maps to measure taxi traffic intensity across the city and used inspection and trip data to approximate taxi-related exhaust emissions of two major sources of air pollution: nitric oxide and particulate matter.
The e-NV200’s homologated NEDC range of 170 km (106 miles) is greater than the average 100-kilometer (62-mile) daily driving distance of more than half the fleets which utilize this class of van; the payload and cargo area is the same as NV200’s. The LCV version still has a cargo volume of 4.2
This new rule directly addresses disproportionate risks and health and pollution burdens affecting these communities and puts California on the path for an all zero-emission short-haul drayage fleet in ports and railyards by 2035, and zero-emission “last-mile” delivery trucks and vans by 2040.
Common Rail injection reduces the generation of particles, while exhaust-gas recirculation (EGR) reduces NO x. This improves the exhaust gas values across a wide speed range. This tank capacity allows 18-tonners to cover some 400 km (49 miles) in distributor urban transport and around 700 km (435 miles) on secondary roads.
The exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system design has been updated to a dual loop (low and high pressure) system. gallon diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) tank is located immediately behind the fuel tank with refill location next to the diesel fuel filler. DEF refills align with oil changes lasting up to 10,000 miles.

Road traffic in Great Britain increased from 255 billion miles traveled in 1990 to 328 billion miles in 2018—an increase of 29%. Emissions of many pollutants that are particularly damaging to health (carbon monoxide, particulate matter and nitrogen oxides) have reduced following increasingly stringent exhaust emission limits.
The 2017 Prius Prime offers an EPA-estimated 133 MPGe (miles per gallon equivalent)—a substantial 26% enhancement over its predecessor model, the Prius Plug-in Hybrid, as a result of greater battery capacity and the improved hybrid system. The EPA-estimated all-electric range is up to 25 miles at up to 84 mph.
This results in an increase in range in the NEDC cycle from 190 km (118 miles) previously to now up to 300 km (186 miles). A key factor in its low emissions is the optimum conversion of the methane in the exhaust gas. High-voltage battery system of the new Volkswagen e-Golf. Click to enlarge. All-electric architecture.
The riders of the Pony Express would ride their horse until it was exhausted, then switch to a fresh horse and continue on. Battery trucks with 120-mile range exist—although are not yet very common. This made it possible to take a letter from coast to coast in only 10 days—a miracle in those days. Click to enlarge.
Freight transportation is a pillar of the US national economy, but while long-haul trucks account for less than 6% of the vehicle miles traveled over US highways, they account for about 40% of the emissions of air polluting particulate matter and about 55% of nitrogen oxides, the precursor to ozone in the atmosphere, the study said.
Key features of the GTD engine include its variable valve timing (VVT), dual-loop exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), intercooler integrated in the intake manifold, the common-rail system that now operates at 29,000 psi (2,000 bar) instead of 26,000 psi (1,800 bar), and a new turbocharger. Variable valve timing. Click to enlarge. New EGR system.

These fuel economy levels are achieved based on a sustained 4%–6% annual reduction of fuel use per mile with incremental technology additions that do not compromise vehicle size or utility at an incremental cost of $800–$1,300 from 2025 to 2030. Starting from a baseline 26 mpg (9.04 l/100 km) in 2025 and to 42–46 mpg (5.6-5.11 Source: ICCT.
A twilight liftoff emphasized and lit up the rocket’s miles-long exhaust plume against a darkening sky, producing a show that – while familiar – was still exceptional. Pilot friend of mine captured the Falcon Heavy launch from 35,000ft 500 miles off the coast! What an insane shot!
