Abstract Today, mobility of goods and people is powered predominantly by oil. Most cars and motorbikes burn gasoline; most trucks and buses burn diesel fuel; and trains, ships, and aircraft typically burn other petroleum-derived fuels. To lower greenhouse gas emissions, it is crucial to deploy technologies that reduce emissions from the transportation sector—and from on-road vehicles in particular—quickly and at large scale. For example, Figure 8-1 shows the share of fuel use by vehicle type in the United States, with cars, light trucks, buses, and trucks making up on-road vehicles.
