The Coordinating Research Council (CRC) is a non-profit organization that directs, through committee action, engineering and environmental studies on the interaction between automotive/other mobility equipment and petroleum products. The Sustaining Members of CRC are the American Petroleum Institute (API) and a group of automobile manufacturer members (Stellantis, Mercedes Benz, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Nissan, Toyota, and Volkswagen). CRC research programs are managed by six technical committees (Advanced/Vehicle/Fuel/Lubricants, Atmospheric Impacts, Emissions, Performance, Aviation and Sustainable Mobility.)
