Govern emissions and EV claims across every market.
Carbon neutrality commitments, EV lifecycle claims, and recycled materials positioning all governed through one system of record.
Automotive sustainability claims carry the highest regulatory and reputational stakes
Forward-looking commitments without governance
Your sustainability report commits to carbon neutral manufacturing by 2030. Your marketing team is claiming 'on track to net-zero' in investor materials. But the ECGT now requires future environmental commitments to have independent monitoring and public implementation plans. The gap between the commitment and the claim is ungoverned.
Lifecycle claims cross multiple regulations
An EV lifecycle emissions claim touches EU vehicle emissions regulations, ECGT environmental marketing rules, national advertising standards in every market, and emerging battery passport requirements. No single team has visibility across all of these.
Supplier data changes faster than marketing
Your recycled aluminium content claim was accurate at launch, but your supplier changed the alloy composition mid-production. The marketing claim is still live on your configurator, media pack, and dealer materials across 30 markets.
From emissions data to published claim, governed
EV and emissions claim governance
Govern range claims, lifecycle emissions comparisons, and charging efficiency statements with linked test data and regulatory context per market.
Net-zero commitment tracking
Register your published climate commitments with scope, baseline year, and interim milestones. When marketing claims reference these commitments, alignment is checked automatically.
Supply chain evidence linking
Link supplier certifications, material composition data, and lifecycle assessments directly to the claims they substantiate. When supplier data changes, affected claims surface.
Multi-market regulatory mapping
A single emissions claim may trigger different regulations in the EU, UK, US, China, and DACH markets. Every claim shows the applicable regulatory framework per jurisdiction.
Scenario: a carbon neutrality commitment claim
An automotive OEM publishes a carbon neutrality target in its sustainability report. The communications team then references this commitment in investor materials and marketing.
“Carbon neutral manufacturing across all European plants by 2028”
Commitment is registered
The sustainability team registers the carbon neutrality commitment in the Governance Codex with the specific scope (manufacturing only, not supply chain), the baseline year, interim milestones, and the published implementation plan.
Communications drafts a claim
The communications team drafts 'Carbon neutral manufacturing across all European plants by 2028' for an investor presentation and press release. The claim enters the governance workflow with target jurisdictions EU, UK, and DACH.
Regulatory signals flag two issues
First: under the ECGT, future environmental performance claims require independent monitoring and public implementation plans. Second: the German Federal Court has ruled that 'carbon neutral' claims require clear explanation in the advertisement itself. Both signals surface with the applicable regulatory references.
Evidence gaps are identified
The platform shows that the independent monitoring report has not been linked to the claim, and the public implementation plan referenced in the sustainability report has not been updated since the previous year. Evidence completeness: 45%.
Claim is revised and approved
The sustainability team updates the implementation plan and links the latest monitoring report. The communications team revises the claim to include the specific scope and methodology. Legal approves with the full governance trail exported for the next audit cycle.
The regulations that matter for your team
ECGT Directive
Future environmental performance claims need a public implementation plan and regular independent verification. Product climate-neutrality claims cannot rely on offsetting outside the product's value chain. Applies from 27 September 2026.
National frameworks
German case law has required clearer explanation for some climate-neutral claims, and Deutsche Umwelthilfe remains an active claimant in automotive greenwashing disputes.
CMA Green Claims Code
Claims must consider the full lifecycle. The CMA requires that environmental claims are not misleading by omission.
