Tank-to-Wheel Emissions

Emissions produced during the operation of a vehicle, measuring only the direct tailpipe emissions from fuel combustion, excluding upstream fuel production.

In practice

Tank-to-wheel is the tailpipe figure for a petrol or diesel vehicle. It is simpler to measure but ignores the fuel supply chain, so it is used only where the standard allows that boundary.
