Yes.

Cars burn up petrol, diesel, LPG and so forth.

When burning hydrocarbons, they will react with oxygen to form water and CO2.

Unfortunately this is not the case. Not all fuel is converted to CO2 and H2O.

Some is converted to CO (carbon monoxide, very poisonouss) and some doesnt burn at all or is converted to a shorter chained hydrocarbon.

Its the car exhaust catalyst's job to convert these (and other) substances to CO2.

What cars produce less Co2?

Hybrid cars produce less carbon dioxide because they run partially on an electric motor and partially on a gasoline engine. Therefore a hybrid will produce less CO2 than a car that relies solely on a gasoline powered engine.


The fastes co2 car in the world?

Petrol cars produce CO2 as a combustion by-product, so it might be said that whatever the fastest car in the world is the fastest CO2 car. There are no cars powered by CO2 - obviously - as any chemical reaction starting with CO2 needs energy to produce another substance. There might be a car somewhere powered by compressed CO2, but this will stop moving when it runs out of pressure. Consequently the fastest CO2 car is a parked car.


Do hybrid cars pollute the air?

They are gas powered and produce the same CO2 and pollution as any other gas powered unit. They just produce a little bit less of it.

No. It's formula is CO2. One carbon and two oxygen. Cars produce water i think but I'm not sure how.


Which are producing more carbon dioxide cars or factories?

Cars produce more carbon dioxide than factories on a global scale. Transportation is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions, accounting for a significant portion of total CO2 emissions globally. While factories also emit CO2, the collective contribution of cars is higher due to the sheer number of vehicles on the roads.
