ES330 CO2 Emissions Data Needed
I have moved temporarily to Europe (Austria) and had a chance to take my Lexus ES330 with me as a part of the relocation package. However, in order to register the car in Austria I need CO2 (g/km) specification for the car/engine. Can anyone direct me where to get this information?
Thanks,
Tom

I was thinking, in the US, CO emissions is just a helpful data point.
In Europe there are official figures, based on a standard road cycle test, they use for tax strategies. I don't know if it is the same testing across all of Europe but the EU is pretty standardized on automotive stuff. Getting a number like that from the US sources is not likely something compatible with what the Austrian authorities are looking for.
The best way to do this might be to find the most similar european model, with the same basic drivetrain and find its official european CO figures. It might not be exact with different body styles, US tuning etc. but CO is very closely related to fuel economy so it shouldn't be too far off. Was there an ES330 or other Toyota 3.3 FWD sold in Europe anywhere?
