Globally, the transport sector is the second-largest source of CO2 emissions, with private road transportation accounting for the majority of these emissions. In this study, we use a structural model and a novel dataset of the French new and used car markets to estimate the determinants of private car demand and price sensitivity. Our findings demonstrate that targeting low-income households is effective from both distributive and environmental perspectives.

Urban green spaces improve quality of life, but may reduce car space. We first propose a theoretical model to analyze this trade-off. Positive global willingness-to-pay (WTP) is observed for scenarios that improve biodiversity and air cooling with minimal loss of car space, while negative WTP arises when car space is greatly reduced without substantial environmental benefits.
Le transport de voyageurs en France représente plus de 20 % des émissions nationales de gaz à effet de serre.
