Fuel economy requirements and government regulations to reduce the carbon footprint of automobiles have driven vehicle mass reduction strategies in recent years. These strategies have helped the original equipment manufacturer (OEMs) to balance cost, mass, and performance by introducing innovative technologies in materials selection and design, sustainable engineering, and manufacturing. Since lightweighting approaches have close relations with the vehicles’ service life, they have significant effects on reducing automobiles’ CO2 emissions.

近年来，减少汽车碳足迹的燃料经济性要求和政府法规已经推动了车辆质量减少策略。这些战略通过在材料选择和设计、可持续工程和制造方面引入创新技术，帮助原始设备制造商（OEM）平衡成本、质量和性能。汽车轻量化与汽车的使用寿命密切相关，对降低汽车CO2排放具有重要作用。
