Paragraph 1
Paragraph 1
1. Calls on the Commission to come forward with a 202530 target for cars (in the range of 68-78 gr CO2/km) and vans (in the range of 105-120 gr CO2/km) to be calculated based on the new Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Procedures (WLTP)and vans to be calculated as a percentage reduction from 2021 values. The proposal should also include 2025 mid-term review that takes into consideration the market uptake and deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure;

Paragraph 1
1. Calls on the Commission to come forward with a 202530 target for cars (in the range of 68-78 gr CO2/km) and vans (in the range of 105-120 gr CO2/km) to be calculated based on the nNew Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Procedures (WLTP)European Driving Cycle (NEDC). The targets for cars and vans have to be linked to the market penetration of alternative powered vehicles;
Amendment 67 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 1 a (new)
Paragraph 1 a (new)
1a. Stresses that a percentage rate of reduction should be conditional on a gain in market share for alternative propulsion systems. This means that, the greater the number of vehicles approved with zero emissions or very low emissions, the more ambitious the percentage fleet target can be, and vice versa. The principle of technology neutrality should be respected.
Amendment 74 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 2
Paragraph 2
2. Welcomes the introduction of the new WLTP; underlines the need, however, to develop a more transparent and realistic on-road test procedure to reflect real fuel consumption and CO2 emissions complemented by fuel consumption meters on vehiclesconsider other variables different from fuel consumption (e.g. traffic conditions, road infrastructure, climate conditions, status of vehicles) when judging on vehicle performance;
Amendment 81 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 3
Paragraph 3
3. Calls on the Commission to adopt antake ambitious mandate for coordinated actions supporting the market uptake of electricalternatively powered vehicles and callputs for a long-term European initiative on next generation batteries in this regardward guiding recommendations to Members States to implement fiscal incentives for zero and low-emission vehicles, whilst also calling on member states to fully transpose and implement the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure directive (COM 2014/94);
Amendment 106 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 4
Paragraph 4
4. Calls for a transparent pan-EU labelling system, which would provide consumers with comparable data on the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions of cars placed on the market;
Amendment 109 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 4 a (new)
Paragraph 4 a (new)
4a. Calls on the Commission to undertake the ongoing transition from the old test cycle NEDC to the new WLTP in accordance with the principle of ‘comparable effort’. A car fleet which in 2021 meets the 95 g target under the NEDC in accordance with the law must also comply with the law after conversion to the WLTP;
Amendment 112 #

Paragraph 4 a (new)
Paragraph 4 a (new)
4a. Calls on the Commission to recognise the increasing importance of embedded emissions by incorporating incentives for life cycle emissions accounting;
Amendment 116 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 4 b (new)
Paragraph 4 b (new)
4b. Calls on the Commission, in CO2 regulation after 2020, in so far as possible to take account of all technological approaches to reduce CO2 emissions on the roads. Regulation should particularly take account of the possibilities afforded by the latest alternative fuels (electrofuels; synthetic fuels; power to gas, power to liquid);
Amendment 122 #

Paragraph 5
Paragraph 5
5. Urges the Commission to come up with a proposal on the certification, monitoring and reporting of heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs) by the end of 2017 and ambitious 2025 CO2 targets by the beginning of 2018end of 2018 based on a solid basis;

Amendment 156 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 8
Paragraph 8
8. Regretalizes, in this regard, the adoption of high conformity factors for NOx emissions is a temporary need but recognises that a NOx conformity factor of 1.0 and a measurement instrument error margin on 0.5 is already in EU law for a second RDE Step applicable from January 2020 and urges the Commission to start to review the conformity factors in 2017error margin of the measurement instruments in 2017; This review is subject to the condition that all PEMS equipment used for testing will be certified to guarantee the achievable error margin in NOx emission testing and that all authorities, technical services and third parties performing RDE tests are accredited as having the appropriate qualifications to run RDE tests according to the legislation and any further Guidance the Commission may issue;
Amendment 196 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 12 a (new)
Paragraph 12 a (new)
12a. Urges Member States to speed up the implementation of the Single European Sky, as current fragmentations are causing longer flight times, delays, extra-fuel burn and greater CO2 emissions;
Amendment 198 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 12 a (new)
Paragraph 12 a (new)
12a. Stresses that specific incentives for the deployment of sustainable alternative fuels should be given to transport modes where so far no alternative to liquid fuel exists (e.g. aviation, lorries and coaches); these incentives should be reflected in the recast of the Renewable Energy Directive as well as be included in Integrated National Energy and Climate Plans, as foreseen in the proposed Regulation on Governance of the Energy Union;
Amendment 220 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 14
Paragraph 14
14. Calls for more stringent limits than those proposed in the recast of the Renewable Energy Directive in order to phase down first generation biofuels by 2030 and achieveaintaining the 7% cap on 1st generation biofuels, agreed in Directive (EU) 2015/1513, to provide market stability, investor certainty and to create the conditions for an ambitious and successful long-term decarbonisation of the transport sector;
