AUTO ASPIRE against its type
Built in 2022, it is 14 years newer than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 35,667 gross tonnage it is smaller than 94% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 6 vehicle carriers here under the Portugal flag, 0.8% of the 713 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 98 other vessels here, 4 of them vehicle carriers. United European Car Carriers is linked to 2 vessels on this register. The returns for 2022–2025 all give Madeira as port of registry.
Its 12,776 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.8 times the median of 7,074 t among the 514 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 186.8 kg CO₂, 40% below the type median of 309.1 kg. It logged 5,410 hours at sea against a median of 1,639 hours for its type that year. 8.4% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 3.1%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (14,754 t) and the lowest 2022 (1,403 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 64 in 2023 to 56 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 236 of 423 qualifying vehicle carriers by EEOI, at the 56th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 51.7; this vessel reported 54.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 234,587,036 tonne-miles over 68,410 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 810.3% higher than in 2022, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 9.5% while distance sailed fell 3.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 6.6%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
