The U.S. market is the world's biggest polluter

The U.S. auto market is the biggest polluter in the world, as reflected in the consulting firm JATO Dynamics, reporting that average CO2 emissions of vehicles sold during the first quarter there were 268 grams per kilometer, double those recorded in Europe and Japan.

And is that according to the document, the average in the country of the Rising Hall during the same period are at 130.8 g / km of C02, while in the Old World were 140.3 g / km C02.

JATO President Americas, David Mitchell, explained that U.S. consumers need to conduct a reassessment "fundamental" in their car buying preferences, due to increased fuel prices, among other things.

However, the report indicates that fuel prices remain low in the United States from other countries. Hence, this market remains dominated by petrol vehicles, which account for 81.9% of the total.
