BITRE | Working paper 73<br />

The ‘high fuel intensity’ scenario assumes that, by the end <strong>of</strong> the projection period:<br />

• new passenger cars are 15 per cent less fuel efficient than for the base case trend<br />

improvement, <strong>and</strong> new LCVs are 10 per cent less fuel efficient than for the base<br />

case trend improvement<br />

• the fuel consumption rate <strong>and</strong> average load parameters for rigid trucks change<br />

over time such that the average freight task efficiency <strong>of</strong> the fleet improves by 0.2<br />

per cent per annum slower than the base case trend improvement (in megajoules<br />

per tonne kilometre terms)<br />

• the fuel consumption rate <strong>and</strong> average load parameters for articulated trucks<br />

change over time such that the average freight task efficiency <strong>of</strong> the fleet improves<br />

by 0.5 per cent per annum slower than the base case trend improvement (in<br />

megajoules per tonne kilometre terms)<br />

• the average fuel intensity for all other transport fleets is 10 per cent above the<br />

base case trend.<br />
