Ireland ranks in global top 10 for low fuel emissions

According to the European Federation for Transport and Environment, while Peugeot-Citroen tops the league table for fuel-efficient cars, Nissan has made the most rapid progress in cleaning up emissions from its European fleet, with a 12.1% reduction in CO2 emissions last year.
The annual report, which tracks the progress made by car manufacturers to reduce fuel and CO2 emissions, also found Nissan remains the best performer in driving fuel efficiency since EU CO2 limits were proposed in 2008, cutting CO2 by an average of 5.5% annually.
