(12) In order to maintain the diversity of the car market and its ability to cater for different consumer needs, CO2 targets for passenger cars should be defined as a function of the utility of the cars on a linear basis. To describe this utility, mass is the most appropriate parameter because it provides a satisfactory correlation with present emissions and would therefore result in more realistic and competitively neutral targets and because data on mass is readily available. Data on the alternative utility parameter of footprint (track width times wheelbase) should, however, be collected in order to facilitate longer-term evaluations of the utility-based approach. In the establishment of the targets, the projected evolution of new cars’ mass until 20125 should be taken into account, and potential incentives to increase vehicle mass just in order to benefit from a consequential increase of the CO2 reduction target should be avoided. Therefore, the possible future autonomous mass increase evolution of vehicles produced by the manufacturers and sold on the EU market should be taken into account when defining the targets for 20125. Finally, differentiation of targets should encourage emissions reductions to be made in all categories of cars while recognising that larger emission reductions can be made for heavier cars.

(22) Manufacturers’ compliance with the targets under this Regulation should be assessed at the Community level. Manufacturers whose average specific emissions of CO2 exceed those permitted under this Regulation should pay an excess emissions premium in respect of each calendar year from 20125 onwards. The premium should be modulated as a function of the extent to which manufacturers fail to comply with their target. It should increase over time. In order to provide a sufficient incentive to take measures to reduce specific emissions of CO2 from passenger cars, the premium should reflect technological costs. The amounts of the excess emissions premium should be considered as revenue for the budget of the European Unionwill be paid into a fund whose revenue must be used to reduce CO2 emissions in road transport and research new energy- efficient technologies.

Article 4
Article 4
For the calendar year commencing 1 January 20125 and each subsequent calendar year, each manufacturer of passenger cars shall ensure that itsn 2015 25 %, in 2016 50 %, in 2017 75 % and in 2018 and each subsequent calendar year 100 % of the average specific emissions of CO2 of the vehicle fleet do not exceed itsthe specific emissions target determined in accordance with Annex I for the manufacturer’s vehicle fleet or, where a manufacturer is granted a derogation under Article 9, in accordance with that derogation. For this purpose CO2 emissions shall be spread over three consecutive years.

Article 7 – paragraph 1
1. In respect of each calendar year from 2012 onward5 or over the following three calendar years for which a manufacturer’s average specific emissions of CO2 exceed its specific emissions target in that year, the Commission shall impose an excess emissions premium on the manufacturer or, in the case of a pool, the pool manager.

3. The excess emissions premium shall be: (a) in relation to excess emissions in the calendar year 2012, 20 euros; (b) in relation to excess emissions in the calendar year 2013, 35 euros; (c) in relation to excess emissions in the calendar year 2014, 60 euros; and (d) in relation to excess emissions in the calendar year 2015 and subsequent calendar years, 95 eurosresemble the premiums that are paid in other sectors of the EU emission trading system and shall not exceed 20 euros per gram.
