I-4. Transition of Energy Consumption in the Transportation Sector

Factors for the Increase in Energy Consumption
for Private Passenger Vehicles

Energy consumption for private passenger vehicles marked a drastic 63% increase over 12 years from FY1990.
The trend is mainly attributed to the increase in household ownership of passenger vehicles extending total driving distance and increased vehicle weights, compromising actual fuel economy.
