The day that many auto industry moguls have been secretly dreading for years is fast approaching. After positive initial progress, of late frantic industry attempts to cut fleet average
CO2 emissions from cars in the EU to 95g/km by 2021 appear to have screeched to a sudden halt

CO2 efficiency of domestic champions PSA Group and Renault, could cross the 2021 95/g/km finish line without breaking into sweat. Not so it now seems. AID investigates.
