The increased occurrence of meteorological disasters, as an effect of climate change, but also health hazards due to bad air quality in urban areas, resulted in stricter limits for pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions of passenger cars. Concerning the containment of global warming to 2 °C above the average temperature before industrialization, the European legislator demands the automotive industry to assume responsibility to reduce the CO2 emissions in road transport. For new passenger cars the fleet-averaged CO2 emission limit was set to 95 g/km for the year 2020 [1].
