Calculate vehicle emissions by type
Calculates estimated CO₂e emissions for vehicle travel when the vehicle is identified by type rather than by a specific make and model.
Request format: The supplied CarbonSutra API collection defines the calculation inputs as query parameters for this POST endpoint.
query Parameters
vehicle_typeType of vehicle.
distance_unitDistance unit. Default is km.

fuel_typeFuel type for cars.
include_wttControls inclusion of Well-to-Tank (WTT) emissions. Default: Y.
cluster_nameOptional developer-defined label used to associate the calculation with an emission cluster.

Estimated vehicle emissions.
CO₂e result returned by an emission calculator.
successWhether the request completed successfully.
statusAPI status value.
