The next generation car and fuel initiative sets two targets; the improvement of the energy efficiency and the decrease of the dependence on oil. As a means to achieve these targets, five technologies were chosen: the next generation battery, a fuel cell, a clean diesel, the biotechnology fuel, and ITS. The checkpoints for each technology until 2030 are installed, and progress has been confirmed. These strategic points are described in this report.%21世紀に入り,エネルギー問題や地球温暖化問題に関する世界情勢は一変した.石油の高騰や,地球温暖化が原因と考えられる異常気象が発生し,従来の自動車や自動車燃料のあり方に大きな変化をもたらした.環境・エネルギー情勢の大きな変化とそれに伴う自動車燃料や自動車技術の多様化に対応するためには,わが国が進むべき目標と手段を官民で共有し,その戦略に基づき官民が一体となって取り組んでいく必要がある.
