In 2022, Sixt reported greenhouse gas emissions from its vehicle fleet at approximately 0.162 kg CO2e per kilometre driven. This figure reflects the average emissions associated with their operations, although specific total emissions data for Scope 1, 2, and 3 are not disclosed. The company has shown a slight improvement in emissions intensity compared to 2021, where the average emissions were about 0.15 kg CO2e per kilometre. Sixt has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, indicating a lack of formalised commitments to reduce emissions at this time. The absence of disclosed emissions data and reduction strategies suggests that Sixt may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. Overall, while Sixt has made some progress in emissions intensity, the company currently lacks detailed emissions reporting and formal reduction commitments, which are critical for aligning with industry standards and addressing climate change effectively.
Climate goals typically focus on 2030 interim targets and 2050 net-zero commitments, aligned with global frameworks like the Paris Agreement and Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to ensure alignment with global climate goals.
Sixt has not publicly committed to specific 2030 or 2050 climate goals through the major frameworks we track. Companies often set interim 2030 targets and long-term 2050 net-zero goals to demonstrate measurable progress toward decarbonization.
