Abstract

As CO₂ regulations of passenger vehicles in each country are getting more stringent, battery electric vehicle and fuel cell electric vehicle are more attractive to OEMs due to zero CO₂ emission based on tank-to-wheel and super credit.  Also a dozen cities and several countries have announced that ICE vehicles will be phased out or banned. But no countries have passed a law banning the ICE vehicles, yet. In order to truly reduce CO₂ emission from passenger vehicles globally, CO₂ regulation on passenger vehicles based on well-to-wheel or life cycle assessment (LCA) should be considered. This talk will touch the global CO₂ and exhaust emissions regulations, outlook for future powertrains mix in 2030.  Internal combustion engines including HEV will be mainstream in the future. Several key technologies which substantially improve the engine thermal efficiency will be introduced. Further designed fuels or PtX (Power-to-X) fuels based on CO₂ neutral electrical energy should be developed to improve more engine efficiency and reduce harmful emissions, then internal combustion engines will produce near zero CO₂ emission.
