MEGA EXPRESS FIVE against its type
Built in 1993, it is 7 years older than the median ro-pax ship on this register, which was built in 2000 (483 vessels with a known build year). At 28,338 gross tonnage it is larger than 63% of the other 470 ro-pax ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 84 ro-pax ships here under the Italy flag, 17.0% of the 493 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 25 other vessels here, 9 of them ro-pax ships. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Genova as port of registry.
Its 26,573 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 12% below the median of 30,062 t among the 417 ro-pax ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 740.5 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 467.6 kg. It logged 2,373 hours at sea against a median of 4,243 hours for its type that year. 16.3% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for ro-pax ships was 6.7%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (64,331 t) and the lowest 2025 (26,573 t). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 58.7% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 5.4% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 0.4%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
