Separate consultations from the European Commission focus on the emissions performance of light-duty and heavy-duty vehicles.
The consultation on the revision of regs 443/2009 and 510/2011 on setting CO2 emission performance standards for light duty vehicles (new cars and vans) will establish post-2020 targets. It will also consider the measurement of emissions and the introduction of a utility parameter, which is a way to differentiate between manufacturers’ fleets.
The consultation on the preparation of legislation on monitoring/reporting of heavy-duty vehicle (HDVs) fuel consumption and CO2 emissions will inform plans to set fuel efficiency standards and a carbon dioxide monitoring scheme (already in place for cars and vans) for HDVs.
