In 2022, the company recorded emissions of about 9,169,000 kg CO2e, with 4,169,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 5,525,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. The emissions for 2021 were approximately 7,822,000 kg CO2e, including 2,898,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 4,923,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. Despite these figures, Vertu Motors has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The company does not appear to have cascaded any emissions data from a parent organization, and there are no reported commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. Overall, while Vertu Motors has made strides in tracking its emissions, further transparency regarding reduction strategies and commitments would enhance its climate action profile.
