The Gillard Labor Government will cut emissions on our roads by introducing new mandatory carbon dioxide emission standards for all new light vehicles, including cars, from 2015.
This is part of the Gillard Labor Government’s plan to make positive change to how we live, work and travel.
The 15 million light vehicles on Australian roads contribute more than 10 per cent of our nation’s total greenhouse gas emissions.
Modelling undertaken indicates that the new standards could save 2.6 million tonnes of carbon dioxide annually.
