EU – determination of the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of medium and large lorries and large busses - Proposal for a New Regulation

 

The Technical Committee on Motor Vehicles (TCMV) of the European Commission has published a revision the proposal (Annexes) for a new Regulation amending Regulation (EU) 2017/2400 as regards the determination of the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of medium and heavy lorries and heavy buses and to introduce electric vehicles and other new technologies.

The proposal introduces a new subject matter. This Regulation complements the legal framework for the type-approval of motor vehicles and engines with regard to emissions established by Regulation (EU) No 582/2011 by laying down the rules for issuing licenses to operate a simulation tool with a view to determining CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of new vehicles to be sold, registered or put into service in the Union and for operating that simulation tool and declaring the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption values thus determined.

The proposal also introduces changes in the scope, definitions, vehicle groups and other points of the Regulation.

This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
