Road transportation in the European Union (EU-27) produced the equivalent of 748 million metric tons of carbon dioxide (MtCO₂e) in 2021. Mobility and travel restrictions brought on by the outbreak of COVID-19 caused emissions to plummet 13 percent in 2020, the biggest annual drop ever. Although emissions rebounded in 2021 as restrictions eased, they remained well below pre-pandemic levels.
