GRANDE CALIFORNIA against its type
Built in 2021, it is 13 years newer than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). It is one of 19 vehicle carriers here under the Italy flag, 2.7% of the 713 on the register. Grimaldi Lines is linked to 24 vessels on this register.
Its 14,885 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.1 times the median of 7,074 t among the 514 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 364.5 kg CO₂, 18% above the type median of 309.1 kg. It logged 2,569 hours at sea against a median of 1,639 hours for its type that year. 2.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 3.1%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (26,244 t) and the lowest 2025 (14,885 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 67 in 2022 to 75 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 7 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 317 of 423 qualifying vehicle carriers by EEOI, at the 75th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 51.7; this vessel reported 73.5.
Across the 4 ranked vessels operated by Grimaldi Lines, the median percentile is 68. This vessel is less efficient than its own fleet median.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 202,604,464 tonne-miles over 40,836 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 43.3% lower than in 2022, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 30.9% while distance sailed fell 32.9%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 3.0%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
