About this guide

As global regulations tighten and supply chains come under increasing scrutiny, automotive manufacturers face urgent pressure to address embedded CO₂ emissions. This whitepaper dives into the critical levers for carbon reduction— transparency, carbon pricing, and supplier development—and shows how they can be turned into competitive advantages.

From Scope 3 emissions to the implications of CBAM (Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism), the paper offers strategic guidance and a concrete case study on how manufacturers can integrate CO₂ into sourcing decisions with bottom-up product costing.

Your takeaways at a glance

  • Why upstream (Scope 3) emissions dominate the automotive carbon footprint—and what to do about it

  • How to use carbon pricing to turn sustainability into a business case and prepare for future regulations

  • How leading manufacturers evaluate supplier CO₂ emissions and incentivize cleaner production

  • What CBAM means for automotive sourcing, and how to mitigate its financial impact with smart data

  • How bottom-up costing supports faster, smarter decisions on both price and CO₂
