Plug-in hybrid electric cars: Market development, technical analysis and CO₂ emission scenarios for Germany | oeko.de https://www.oeko.de/publikation/plug-in-hybrid-electric-cars-market-development-technical-analysis-and-co2-emission-scenarios-for-germany/?tx_form_formframework%5Baction%5D=perform&tx_form_formframework%5Bcontroller%5D=FormFrontend&cHash=a62639613b1b32b10cc69f6c55e52bd4
This study examines the deviation of real-world CO₂ emissions of plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) from type-approval values, the driving factors of these deviations, and implications for achieving the German climate protection targets for transport by 2030. Following a comprehensive market analysis, the energy consumption for typical vehicle configurations under various conditions is calculated using a vehicle simulation model. Using the model results, the expected real-world tailpipe emissions for the PHEV fleet up to the year 2030 are determined.
