dc.description.abstractThis research is conducted to survey the carbon dioxide emission from passenger car. Passenger car is one of the largest shares of internal combustion engine vehicle on the road today. Therefore, they are also responsible for a large proportion of the environmental pollution such as the greenhouse gas emission. In this study four cars of different ages were tested experimentally for their carbon dioxide (CO2) emission using the universal emission analyzer machine. Based on the experimental results, carbon dioxide emission index is proposed. The index number will be a good indicator of CO2 emission level. From this research, it is clear that the age of the car plays a significant role of carbon dioxide emitted. Generally, older car emits more carbon dioxide compared to newer car for the same period of usage. This research also highlights some solutions to reduce CO2 emission from passenger cars. There are some possible general solutions to reduce this emission. Using alternative means of transport and wellmaintannace of cars are just some of these solutions.en_US
