What is a carbon footprint?

It measures your impact on climate change in tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) per year.

  • Our carbon footprint shows a car's CO2 emissions in tons per year, along with the CO2 emitted in producing and distributing the fuel.
  • Your choice of vehicle has the biggest impact on your carbon footprint.
Automobiles account for over half (51%) of the CO2 emissions from a typical household.
* Does not include CO2 from public transportation and air travel.
