flag Australia’s vehicle emissions dipped slightly in 2024 due to more electric and hybrid cars, but remain far above U.S. and European levels.

flag Australia’s vehicle fleet became slightly cleaner in 2024, with light vehicle emissions dropping 1.5% to 190.8g/km, driven by rising sales of hybrids, plug-in hybrids, and electric vehicles. flag New vehicle emissions fell 3.9% to 156.3g/km, with over 600,000 hybrids and 240,000 electric vehicles on the road by early 2025. flag Despite progress, emissions remain 34% higher than in Europe and above those in the US and Canada, hindered by larger vehicle sizes, longer lifespans averaging nearly 19 years, and higher emissions in rural areas.
