DISTANCE LEAVES A HISTORY
Your car’s carbon history
From the day it was built to the journeys still ahead.
Start with your car
Choose its year, make, model and version.
Your years behind the wheel
Your distance is separate from the car’s total odometer.
Adjust individual years
Each year can vary by ±50%. Changes add to or subtract from your total distance.
A decision you can make today
Compare the same journeys over the same years.
The car you would buy today

MY ALLOCATED CO₂
Estimated physical CO₂ across modelled stages. Historical process proxies; see scope below.
Each year has its own footprint
Annual tonnes of CO₂ · select a year for its components and service events.
Explore one car up to 1,000,000 km
Full production counted once, then fuel, energy and discrete service events. This separate vehicle projection does not change your ownership scenario or assume the car will survive this distance.
Sources, assumptions and the meaning of this number
Read the calculation method and source register ↗
CO₂ is a mass of carbon dioxide. CO₂e combines the warming effects of several gases. These results use CO₂-specific factors; methane and other gases still matter, especially for gas fuels, but are not counted as CO₂ to remove. No complete CO₂e total is inferred from this inventory.
AFTER THE JOURNEY
The emissions have a history.
Removal takes time.
Recycling can avoid new emissions. Removing CO₂ already in the atmosphere requires land, biological growth, management and durable storage.
