dc.description.abstractThe rapid urbanisation and economic growth has led to unprecedented increase in CO 2 emissions, which led to a vital global issue due partly to the rise in demand from the transport sector. In the years ahead, the transport services demand is likely to increase further, which lead to intensification in CO 2 emissions as well. The transportation sector in Malaysia contributes for about 28% of total CO 2 emissions, of which 85% of it goes to road transportation mode. This has led to a great interest in how the CO 2 emissions in this sector can effectively be reduced. Using a multiple regression model and datasets from 1990 to 2015, this study aimed to examine factors that influence the CO 2 emissions in Malaysia. Key factors of CO 2 emissions, i.e., fuel consumption (FC), distance travel (DT), fuel efficiency (FE), and fuel price (FP) were investigated for the road transport sector. The findings demonstrated that the impact of factors on CO 2 emissions were varies in each technology vehicles. These findings not only contributes to enhancing the current literature, but also provide insights for policy maker in Malaysia to design policy instruments for road transport sector. � 2018 Authors.en_US
