The average car purchased in 2023 emits higher levels of carbon dioxide (CO₂) than its 2013 equivalent. This is due to the large proportion of SUVs in the mix, which tend to be bigger and heavier. (english.elpais.com)

It says "2013 equivalent", referring to average car bought in 2023.

But that doesn't matter, because it's not the headline of the article, but OP editorializing it.

It's also not technology. It'd be nice if one of the "technology" communities actually focused on technology and scientific development, not business news or whatever Elon Musk is doing today.
