TABLE 10-5 Carbon Dioxide Emissions by Type of Highway Vehicle: 2002
Excel | CSV | Graphic Version
| TgCO2Eq | Percent | |
|---|---|---|
| Passenger cars | 636.9 | 45.4 |
| Light-duty trucks | 465.5 | 33.2 |
| All other trucks | 292.4 | 20.8 |
| Buses | 8.3 | 0.6 |
| Total highway | 1,403.1 | 100.0 |
KEY: TgCO2Eq = teragrams of carbon dioxide equivalent. A teragram = 1 trillion grams.
NOTE: Alternative fuel vehicle emissions are allocated to the specific vehicle types in which they were classified (i.e., passenger cars, light- duty trucks, and other trucks and buses).
