CO2 Emissions from New Vehicles (Global)*
In fiscal 2021, CO2  emissions in Nissan’s main markets of Japan, the U.S., 
Europe, and China were 42.5% lower than fiscal 2000 levels, as measured 
by Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE).
In particular, fuel efficiency has improved compared to fiscal 2020 due to 
the introduction of new models in China and Europe.

Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE, JC08 Mode) in Japan
In fiscal 2021, the corporate 
average fuel economy in Japan 
was 23.6 km/L.
Higher sales of e-POWER Nissan 
Note/Note Aura and other 
e-POWER vehicles contributed to 
the 2% improvement over fiscal 
2020.
* Provisional values calculated in-house; some models include WLTC mode fuel consumption values.
Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) 
in the United States
In fiscal 2021, the corporate 
average fuel economy (CAFE) 
of Nissan’s passenger cars in 
the US was 41.7 mpg, a 2.4% 
improvement over fiscal 2020, 
owing to the release of new 
models and an improved model 
mix. In the light-duty truck 
segment, the release of new 
models increased the CAFE 3.4%, from 29.7 mpg to 30.7 mpg.

In 2021, average vehicle CO2 
emissions in Europe are expected 
to be exacerbated by the change 
in evaluation mode from NEDC to 
WLTP. 
On the other hand, as an 
individual company and an 
alliance pool, we have complied 
with the EU CO2 emission 
regulations that applied to 2020 and beyond.

In 2021, average fuel

was 9% worse than in

change from NEDC to WLTP. 
In case of on same NEDC test 
cycle, fuel consumption was 
improved about 8% thanks to 
e-POWER model launch.

EVs
In 2021, vehicle numbers 
increased due to the launch of 
the all-new Qashqai in Europe.
In fiscal 2021, e-POWER sales 
volume increased thanks to 
strong sales of the new Note and 
the launch of the new Sylphy in 
China.
In Japan, where customers' interest in electrified vehicles 
is relatively high, e-POWER models account for 35.7% 
of total shipments in Japan. Combined with electric and 
hybrid vehicles, entire electrified vehicles account for 
66.4%, almost two-thirds of the total. This trend is expected 
to continue, given the strong sales of the new Nissan 
Sakura Kei-EV, which went on sale in FY2022. We see 
this as a situation where more sustainable product lines 
are becoming the core of Nissan's business in pursuit of 
environmental values.

Global Energy Consumption
The total energy consumption of our global corporate activities during fiscal 
2021 was 7.495 million MWh, 2% decrease from fiscal 2020. This reduction 
was primarily due to the promotion of energy-saving activities at facilities 
and a decline in total production volume. Production sites globally accounted 
for 6.875 million MWh★ of total energy consumption.

Scope 3 Emissions by Category
We conducted a study based on standards such as the Corporate Value 
Chain（Scope3）Accounting and Reporting Standard from the GHG Protocol 
and found that about 90％ of our Scope3 emissions were from the use of 
sold products.
For the fiscal 2021 study, we updated the basis of calculation* for the 
purchased goods and services which account for about 8% of Scope3 
emissions, to make it close the actual amount of raw material used.

Automotive Shredder Residue to Landfill Ratio
After removing ferrous and nonferrous metals from ELVs, in accordance with 
the End-of-Life Vehicle Recycling Law in Japan, the ratio of ASR taken to 
landfills for final disposal was zero in fiscal 2021 as same as 2020’s result. 
This was achieved by enhancing recycling capability through the acquisition 
of additional facilities that comply with the law.
Material Ratio
In 2021, ferrous metals accounted for 60% of the materials used in our 
automobiles by weight. Nonferrous metals made up another 14% and resins 
15%, with miscellaneous materials making up the final 12%. To further 
reduce our use of natural resources, we are advancing initiatives to expand 
the use of recycled materials in each of these categories.
Recovered Bumpers
The number of bumpers collected 
in fiscal 2021 was 93,000, and 
the recovery rate decreased by 
4.2 points.
Resource Dependency: Achievements in Reuse
Proper Use of Regulated Chemical Substances
Nissan revised its standard 
for the assessment of hazards 
and risks in the Renault-Nissan 
Alliance, actively applying 
restrictions to substances not 
yet covered by regulations 
but increasingly subject to 
consideration around the 
world. As a result, the number 
of substances covered by 
the Nissan Engineering Standard in fiscal 2021 rose to 5,304. These 
steps are thought to be necessary for future efforts in the repair, reuse, 
remanufacture, and recycle loop for resources.

Strengthening Our Business Foundations to 
Address Environmental Issues
Global Top-Selling Model’s Life Cycle Improvements
We have been expanding the application of the LCA method and enhancing 
the understanding of the environmental impact of our products in quantitative 
terms, especially our best-selling models worldwide. Coverage on a unit basis has 
reached approximately 80% of models globally and approximately 90% in Europe.
With the Qashqai and Rogue (X-trail), for example, improvements in internal 
combustion engine efficiency and vehicle weight reduction have led to both 
enhanced safety features and lower CO2 emissions.

LCA Comparison of EV Models
Compared to conventional vehicles of the same class in Japan, the Nissan 
LEAF results in approximately 32% lower CO2 emissions during its life cycle.
The “Nissan Ariya” launched in 2022 achieves both further improvement of 
EV product performance and reduction of environmental impact. It extends 
EV driving range and reduces lifecycle CO2 emissions by approximately 18%
compared to same segment gasoline-powered models in Japan.
Nissan will keep reducing the environmental impact from the entire life cycle
of electric vehicles.

gases but also a variety of chemicals amid growing societal concerns over 
air quality and ocean acidification and eutrophication. Our compared to 
conventional gasoline engine significantly more environmentally friendly, 
achieving 11% and 27% emission reductions for all targeted chemical 
substances and achieving environmental benefits throughout its lifecycle.

with unionized operations (only countries with consolidated vehicle assembly 
plant) is 70% (7/10 countries).

Traffic Safety
Enhancements to Nissan’s Safety Technology and 
External Ratings Received
Intelligent Emergency Braking* is available on nearly all vehicle categories 
sold in Japan, including EVs and commercial vehicles, and standard on all 
major models. In North America and Europe also, Intelligent Emergency 
Braking is available on key models.
Our vehicles have earned high safety ratings on many public and 
governmental tests held in various regions. In particular in Japan, from 
fiscal 2020 JNCAP (Japan New Car Assessment Program) commenced 
comprehensive assessments in its “Car Safety Performance” evaluations 
encompassing the three assessment areas of collision performance ratings, 
preventative safety performance ratings, and automatic accident emergency 
call devices. To receive the highest score of five stars, high scores must 
be achieved in each assessment area (automatic accident emergency call 
devices are a fitment requirement). Following on from the Nissan DAYZ in 
fiscal 2020, in “Car Safety Performance 2021” for fiscal 2021 the Nissan 
ROOX, Note/Note Aura, and Nissan Kicks received five stars, a testament 
to their overall safety performance. Furthermore, a certification system 
for advanced safety technology was launched by the Ministry of Land, 
Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism in fiscal 2018. In fiscal 2020, the 
scope of devices subject to this system was expanded, and by fiscal 2021 
10 models and 29 types equipped with intelligent emergency braking and 
pedal misapplication prevention devices (Nissan DAYZ, Nissan ROOX, 
Note, Serena, Nissan LEAF, March, Clipper series, and Elgrand) had been 
approved.
