Facts

  • Porsche reduces fuel consumption – and consequently CO2 emissions – by 1.7 per cent annually.
  • The vehicle inventory in Germany and Europe accounts for less than 12% of CO2 emissions – with Porsche vehicles contributing less than 1 per mill.
  • Based on the relationship between engine power output (g/km/hp) and CO2 emissions, Porsche with its vehicle range is one of the manufacturers with the lowest emissions.
  • Protecting the environment is one of our key corporate objectives. Porsche has a specific environmental policy and environmental management systems.
  • Porsche environmental management systems are independently tested and certified.
  • 1.7% of group revenues are invested primarily in measures to reduce fuel consumption.
  • By 2012 average fuel consumption – and thereby the CO2 emissions of all Porsche models – will be reduced by up to 20 %.
  • With the new Cayenne, consumption from everyday use has already been reduced by around 15% due to direct fuel injection (DFI).
  • From 2008, all Porsche sports cars will meet the requirements of the EURO 5 emissions standards which do not come into effect until September 2009.
  • Designing engines to be driven on up to 10% ethanol (up to 25 % depending on the country) further reduces CO2 emissions.
  • By the end of the decade, Porsche will offer a Cayenne with a hybrid engine that will reduce fuel consumption by up to 25 %. A hybrid version of the Panamera will also be available.
  • Owing to its alternative power unit concept, the Cayenne Hybrid will consume less than 9 litres of fuel per 100 kilometres (31 mpg).
