Regulations and growing demand for low-emission vehicles have accelerated the race to reduce tailpipe emissions. Given the significant expectations of reducing carbon emissions, manufacturers in the automotive industry need to deliver greener cars at competitive costs and a reduced carbon footprint. Defining a decarbonization strategy requires a detailed understanding of the carbon footprint of all materials, manufacturing processes, buy parts, transportation, etc., and levers to decarbonize. Building an actionable decarbonization roadmap requires executives to understand the cost and carbon impact of levers to set the right targets.

Calculating product costs and carbon footprint early in design is crucial. It helps make informed decisions that reduce costs, enhance sustainability, and meet consumer expectations, resulting in more efficient delivery of new, innovative, and environmentally friendly products, ensuring profitability.

Learn how to develop products for a targeted cost and carbon footprint with a calculation engine that helps you develop a cost structure based on engineering knowledge and integrated data content.
