The given graph shows the nitrogen oxide emissions produced by four vehicles. Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.
The line graph illustrates the
emission
of nitrogen oxide in grams per kilometre by various types of vehicles
such
as lorries, buses, and petrol or diesel
cars
over the speed of 10 to 130 kilometres per hour.
Overall
, the data are fluctuating a little for the
cars
but remained fairly constant for the rest.
Firstly
, lorries and buses stayed in a similar status across the speed. Buses had the lowest
emission
of all at 7g/
km
at 10kph and
then
at 5g/
km
at 130kph.
This
was followed by lorries at just above 10g/
km
at the beginning and around 12g/
km
at the end
.
On the contrary
, diesel
cars
emit the highest at 40
g
/
km
at 10
kph
,
while
a petrol car emits about 33g/
km
at the same speed. The numbers
then
decrease rapidly to around 25g/
km
for diesel
cars
at 60kph before sharply rising to the highest
emission
at 42g/
km
at 130kph. The same goes for petrol
cars
as the
emission
declined to about 16g/
km
at 90kph but
then
rose to around 25g/
km
at 130kph.
