OICA has changed its logo. To reflect, in a modern logo, the future auto-mobility, based on the new technologies of connectivity. The logo contains graphically the OICA acronym and contains several auto-related symbols, reflecting a start/stop button, a (steering) wheel and connectivity.
Since 1994, OICA compiles worldwide data on automobile production, sales, registrations, trade, and other industry activities. Also data on vehicle fleets, in terms of number of vehicles on the road, are published regularly (though not on an annual basis). These data are compiled under the leadership of experts at the French association CCFA and are […]

Two main types of hybrid-electric vehicles exist, and they have different advantages and different applications, but both have fuel efficiency advantages over conventional internal combustion engined vehicles.
Parallel hybrids can run simply on battery power when zero emissions are required – say in the city – and purely on their parallel internal combustion engine for higher […]

Battery Powered Electric Vehicles have been around in limited quantities for some time and have useful applications for inner city use because of their zero local emissions, but if the energy to recharge the batteries is generated using fossil fuels, there is no overall environmental advantage. In addition, the limited range provided by even the […]
Hydrogen is often called the fuel of the future because it contains no Carbon (and therefore produces no CO2) and it can be made from water.
However there are considerable problems to be overcome:
the amount of energy required to make it, by separating the Hydrogen and Oxygen in water,
its highly explosive nature when mixed with […]
BioDiesel is a transport fuel oil made mainly from organic vegetable oils by a production process called trans-esterification. General feedstocks for such an oil are soybean or rapeseed.
All modern diesel engines can run on up to 5% bio-diesel and higher concentrations up to 10% can be used in some vehicles, subject to limits set by […]
