speaking of car pollution, heres a funfact you guys probably didnt know:

You need ~30 trucks (with EuroVI engine) to pollute as much as one regular car.
A EuroVI truck that drives through a city with high pollution actually cleans the air.


I hate you.

All I know is that a relatively modern car can't even kill you, with those exhaust fumes that is. Sad

How boring!

Also fuck emissions, it's not like I'm gonna kill the planet driving my hungry V8.

tl;dr:

20 y-old Golf 1.6i gasoline car makes 0.678g/km NOx and 2.499g/km CO2
10 y-old Skoda 1.9TDI diesel car makes 0.262g/km NOx and 0.014g/km CO2

Euro 6 diesel NOx limit is 0.08g/km

brand new Renault Megane Experience (1461cc) produces 0.991g/km - 12 times the limit (made in 2016, tested in January 2017)
brand new Fiat 500X CityLook Popstar (1598cc) produces 1.153g/km - 14 times the limit (made in 2015, tested in December 2015)
brand new Qashqai N-Connecta DCI CVT (1598cc) produces 1.46g of NOx per kilometre. That is more than 18 times Europe's 0.08g/km limit
brand new Mercedes C250 AMG Line Premium DA produces 0.080g/km of NOx in real-world driving, so it complies with the regulations outside the lab as well as inside.
brand new VW Tiguan (the SE-L BiTDI SCR 4MOTION Blue Motion Technology, to give it its full name) even comes in at 0.076g/km, just below the 0.08g/km limit.
