GFEI’s global targets and capacity building support policies for vehicle efficiency and electrification. Our new report on GFEI’s ZERO pathway sets out key actions to secure global fleet transformation to zero carbon vehicles by 2050.
In this film GFEI partner ICCT‘s Drew Kodjak explains the vital role vehicle efficiency will continue to play in getting us to our Paris targets for CO2, even as we electrify the global fleet.
For ten years the Global Fuel Economy Initiative (GFEI) has assisted policy makers in promoting greater fuel economy.
Using the skills and expertise of the GFEI partners - IEA, UNEP, ITF, ICCT, UC Davis and the FIA Foundation - GFEI are able to establish a baseline in each country; present policy options and case studies; and enable all stakeholders to engage in the policy process.
The Global Fuel Economy Initiative (GFEI) was founded in 2009 with the purpose of promoting and supporting government action to improve energy efficiency of the global light-duty vehicle fleet.
Ever since, GFEI has highlighted how cost-effective investments to improve light-duty fuel economy lead to multiple benefits, including saving fuel, money and reducing CO2 emissions.
Provide data and research analysis of fuel economy potentials by country and region
In-country capacity-building support for national and regional policy-makers
Outreach and awareness campaign raising to stakeholders (e.g. vehicle manufacturers)
GFEI celebrates its tenth year. Read about the success of the past decade and the future of the Initiative in an increasingly motorised world.
In-country support is a central part of GFEI’s approach to achieve its efficiency targets, and has had a significant impact on overall fuel economy.
Raising global awareness of the importance of the contribution of vehicles to climate change is a key component of GFEI’s work.

This important new report from GFEI partner the International Transport Forum (ITF) – Low Carbon Global Road Freight: Moving Beyond Fuel Economy Standards' – models the range of interventions set against baseline Road freight transport system efficiencies, highlighting how efficiencies could be doubled by 2050 by combining fuel economy standards with targeted logistical policies.
