This car carbon footprint reference table shows the annual co₂ emissions for a range of annual distance values, assuming a fuel efficiency of 15 km/l and a co₂ per litre of 2.31 kg/l. Every figure is computed with the same engine that powers our Car Carbon Footprint Calculator, so the numbers are exact.
