Foreword
With the latest data on vehicle production, registration, use and taxation, as well as employment
and trade, ACEAs Automobile Industry Pocket Guide provides a map of the European automobile
industry today.
As the key figures of this sixth edition clearly show, the automobile industry is the engine of Europe in terms of its skilled workforce, levels of investment in research and development, the size of its
manufacturing base, as well as its trade and tax contributions.
Today, however, the industry stands at a critical juncture, with the economic crisis having taken a harsh
toll. Since the 2007 peak, vehicle registrations have shrunk by a quarter - down 4.4 million vehicles.
Despite this difficult context, the automotive industry is ready to meet the challenges ahead. It is also
ready to support Europe in its mission growth of boosting industrys share of EU GDP to 20% by 2020.
In order to be able to adapt to changing demands, our sector requires a robust industrial policy. It needs
a supportive regulatory framework that will foster competitiveness, ultimately
stimulating growth, jobs and investment - thereby benefiting the European
economy as a whole.

Vehicle manufacturing is a
strategic industry in the EU,
where 16.2 million cars,
vans, trucks and buses are
manufactured.
Motor vehicles account for over

385 billion in tax contribution
in just 14 EU countries - a vital
source of government revenue.
ACEAs members operate 208

vehicle assembly and production
plants in 22 countries across
Europe.
Europes cars, vans, trucks

and buses are the cleanest, safest
and quietest in the world.
Europe leads the way in clean
production, with decreasing
quantities of water and energy
used to manufacture a vehicle,
and much less CO2 and waste
produced in the process.
22
The European auto industry is

a global player, delivering
6.6 million Made in Europe
vehicles around the world, and
bringing in a 92 billion trade
surplus.
The 839 billion turnover

generated by the automotive
sector represents 6.9% of EU
GDP.
The automobile industry has
ripple effects throughout the
economy, supporting a vast
supply chain and generating an

Europes cars, vans, trucks and buses are the cleanest, safest and quietest in the world.
Europe leads the way in clean production, with decreasing quantities of water and energy used
to manufacture a vehicle, and much less CO2 and waste being produced in the process.
Over the past 30 years, safety technologies have helped halve the number of road deaths, despite
a three-fold increase in traffic.
One car in the 1970s produced as many pollutant emissions as 100 cars today.
The average car engine emits 28 times less carbon monoxide than 20 years ago.
In 2012, 71% of new cars emitted less than 140g of CO2 per kilometre, and more than half of those
less than 120g.
An average new car today consumes 15% less fuel per 100km than 10 years ago.
Noise from passenger cars has been reduced by 90% since 1970.
Pollutant emissions from trucks have been slashed to near-zero levels, down 98% since 1990.
Key figures
Trucks fuel consumption - and therefore CO2 emissions - has decreased by over a third
since 1970.
A modern truck needs just 1 litre of fuel to transport 1 tonne of goods over a distance of 100km.
25 of todays trucks and buses are quieter than one built in 1980.

Europe leads the way in resource-efficient production

European automobile manufacturers have significantly reduced the environmental impact of vehicle production
in recent years.
Long-term strategies to reduce water consumption have made it possible to reduce the water use per car produced by 28.5% from 2005 to 2012. This includes the
increased application of re-circulation technologies for the reuse of water.

As cars are equipped with more and more features to make

them safer, more comfortable and more environmentallyfriendly, the complexity of production increases as well,
which affects energy demand. However, manufacturers
constantly work on improving energy-efficiency. As a
result, total energy consumption over the last years, from
2005 to 2012, decreased by 10.7%. Fluctuation in energy
per car produced can be explained by lower volumes in
production in certain years and weather conditions such
as the harsh winter of 2012.

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) are organic solvents mainly emitted from paintshops. The graph shows the VOC emissions per car produced and the absolute emissions
of all passenger car manufacturers altogether. With new technologies such as water-based paints that replace solvent-based paints, manufacturers have been able to reduce
emissions by 34.8% per vehicle over the last eight years.

The total amount of waste generated by the manufacturing of vehicles went down 3.8% over eight years. The 6.3% increase noted in the waste per unit produced occurs
mainly due to the increasing portion of one-way packaging which is a result of globalisation. Fluctuation both in absolute waste and waste per car, especially in 2008,
can be explained by the occurrence of singular events such as the formation of demolition waste.

CO2 taxation is gaining ground in the EU
CO2 taxation is now well established across the European

Union. 19 EU member states currently apply some form of
CO2 tax to the registration and/or ownership of passenger
cars, up from 17 in 2010. Finland and Greece both changed
their annual circulation tax to a CO2 basis recently.
The 19 EU countries that levy passenger car taxes partially
or totally based on the cars CO2 emissions and/or fuel
consumption are: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Denmark, Finland,
France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Latvia, Luxembourg, Malta,
the Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden
and the United Kingdom.
The European automobile industry welcomes this trend
towards CO2-related car taxation. However, it regrets the
lack of uniformity in the implementation of these taxes.

European auto makers therefore support taxation for

passenger cars that is:
exclusively based on CO2 emissions;
technologically neutral;
linear; and
budget neutral.

Tax incentives help shape demand for electric vehicles
Incentives for electrically-chargeable vehicles are now

applied in all western European countries. The incentives
mainly consist of tax reductions and exemptions, as in
countries such as Belgium and the Netherlands, and
bonus payments and premiums for the buyers of electric
vehicles in Spain, Luxembourg and Portugal.
The European car industry supports the further introduction
of fiscal incentives for fuel efficiency. Tax measures are an
important tool in shaping consumer demand towards fuelefficient cars and help create a market for breakthrough
technologies, notably during the introduction phase.
Innovations generally first enter the market in low volumes
and at a significant cost premium, and this needs to be
offset by a positive policy framework. Electric mobility
will make an important contribution towards ensuring
sustainable mobility. However, advanced conventional
technologies, engines and fuels will play a predominant
role for years to come. Governments must continue to
include these CO2-efficient technologies and solutions in
their overall sustainable mobility policy approach.
