BMW Stock and Capital Markets
Between 1995 and 2014, the average CO2 emissions of
the vehicles we sold in Europe fell by 38 %. In 2014,
the
BMW Group’s fleet of new vehicles sold in Europe
(EU-28) consumed an average of 4.9 litres of diesel per
100 km and
6.0 litres of petrol respectively. CO2 emis-
sions
averaged 130 grams per km. In Germany, too,
we led the field among premium-segment manufac-
turers with average CO
2
emissions of 136 grams per
km. In
2014 the BMW Group’s fleet included as many
as 53 models emitting less than 120 grams of CO
2
per
km. Our efficient technologies have given us a com-
petitive edge, particularly in markets where a CO
2
-
based vehicle
tax is levied.
Further information on the subject of sustainability in
the BMW Group is available in our online sustainability
report at: www.bmwgroup.com / sustainability.
The
Sustainable Value Report 2014 was prepared in accord-
ance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI G3.1)
guideline and, at Level A+ (GRI-tested), fulfils the
highest application level of the GRI guideline. It will be
published in conjunction with the Annual Report
2014.
