Notes: VKT = vehicle kilometres travelled; VFM = vehicle fleet model; LCV = light commercial vehicle; HCV = heavy commercial vehicle; t = tonnes (1,000 kg).
Percentages are based on vehicle kilometres travelled by vehicle class in the Ministry of Transport Vehicle Fleet Emissions Model (VFEM). Model outputs were provided by Stuart Badger in August 2007. VKT for all petrol HCVs and buses have been added to petrol LCVs (because these classes are not included in the NZTER).
