Every company seems to be working towards being more ecologically friendly these days, and Porsche is no exception. My favorite car company has been doing a lot to drop their CO2 emissions and make their vehicles greener.
Here are a few things they’ve done in recent years to make Porsches affect the environment less.
Porsche has become very dedicated to protecting the environment, and they’ve even made it one of their corporate objectives. They make certain all of their environmental systems are independently examined, tested, and certified. Because of this, Porsche has learned how to make its vehicles produce very little CO2 emissions. The entire collection of vehicles in Europe account for about 12% of all CO2 emissions, but Porsche’s cars actually contribute less than 1 per mill of those emissions. They have some of the lowest emissions of all vehicles produced around the world.
But Porsche isn’t happy with that amount. Every year, they manage to reduce vehicle fuel consumption and CO2 emissions by another 1.7 percent or more. Their goal by 2012 is to drop their average fuel consumption by at least 20%. That’s a huge commitment, but I have no doubt that they’ll be able to do it. The new Cayenne, for example, has already dropped its fuel consumption by 15% over the previous model because of its new direct fuel injection method.
Porsche is one of the few car companies really dedicated to creating hybrids and lowering their CO2 emissions, and they keep coming up with bigger and better plans for doing so.
