GLOVIS SUNLIGHT against its type
Built in 2017, it is 9 years newer than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 72,269 gross tonnage it is larger than 91% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 62 vehicle carriers here under the Marshall Islands flag, 8.7% of the 713 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 461 other vessels here, 40 of them vehicle carriers. The returns for 2018–2025 all give MAJURO as port of registry.
Its 9,746 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 38% above the median of 7,074 t among the 514 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 345.8 kg CO₂, 12% above the type median of 309.1 kg. It logged 1,870 hours at sea against a median of 1,639 hours for its type that year. 4.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 3.1%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (11,050 t) and the lowest 2021 (889 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 24 in 2018 to 18 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 77 of 423 qualifying vehicle carriers by EEOI, at the 18th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 51.7; this vessel reported 38.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 253,814,583 tonne-miles over 28,188 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 13.1% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 74.9% while distance sailed rose 82.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 4.0%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
