At the start of 2005 the global car population was approximately 700 million cars. At that time new car production was in the order of 50 million cars per year. China and India will double these figures within the near future. Cars produce about a quarter of a tonne (1 tonne approximately equals 1.102 US tons) of carbon dioxide (CO 2) for every 100 litres (26 US gallons) of fuel consumed. A car consuming 50 litres of fuel per week will produce about 1 tonne of CO 2 every 2 months. Cars produced a significant proportion of the greenhouse gas inventory. The majority of the car population is powered by spark ignition (S.I.) engines. HCCI can displace S.I. and thus the AAE will have a major impact by reducing both fuel consumption and the production of automotive greenhouse gas. A 60% reduction in fuel consumption results in a 60% reduction in carbon dioxide. The reduction in fuel consumption and carbon dioxide will prevail for all of the car's working life...
