Mobility has traditionally been synonymous with freedom and progress and is closely tied to the economic progress of every country and continent. Over the past 50 years, there has been a trend of constant growth in mobility for both people and goods. Climate change and the energy crisis have however made a rethinking of the concept of mobility itself essential.
Today, in fact, the automotive industry is being called upon to make its contribution to keep emissions of greenhouse gases at a stable level and to play an active role in the research and development of solutions for a more sustainable mobility.
The Fiat Group believes that only an integrated approach - which must also involve energy producers, consumers and government - can guarantee that effective, long-lasting results are achieved.
Consistent with this, in the development of new products the Group is committed to further reducing CO₂ emissions and fuel consumption, as well as promoting the use of energy from alternative and renewable sources.
These objectives represent the guiding principles behind the Group’s new environmental Guidelines.
