GRANDE ITALIA against its type

Built in 2001, it is 7 years older than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 37,726 gross tonnage it is smaller than 90% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 19 vehicle carriers here under the Italy flag, 2.7% of the 713 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 54 other vessels here, 20 of them vehicle carriers. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Palermo as port of registry.

Its 20,667 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.9 times the median of 7,074 t among the 514 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 281.4 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 309.1 kg. It logged 5,272 hours at sea against a median of 1,639 hours for its type that year. 6.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 3.1%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (21,208 t) and the lowest 2019 (15,458 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 65 in 2018 to 81 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
