(3) The European Green Deal combines a comprehensive set of mutually reinforcing measures and initiatives aimed at achieving climate neutrality in the EU by 2050, and sets out a new growth strategy that aims to transform the Union into a fair and prosperous society, with a modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy, where economic growth is decoupled from resource us and vibrant industries that remain world-leaders in their respective segment and global innovation drivers while securing high-paid quality jobs in Europe. It also aims to protect, conserve and enhance the Union's natural capital, and protect the health and well-being of citizens from environment-related risks and impacts. At the same time, this transition affects women and men differently and has a particular impact on some disadvantaged groups, such as older people, persons with disabilities and persons with a minority racial or ethnic background. It must therefore be ensured that the transition is just and inclusive, leaving no one behind.

(7a) In line with Regulation (EU) 2019/631 the emissions of the entire life cycle of vehicles should be taken into account in order to ensure that emissions are reduced in the most effective manner. Given the strengthened target for 2030, it is important to ensure that a methodology of full life-cycle CO2 emissions for vehicles follows suit. It is therefore necessary that the Commission develop no later than December 31, 2023, an harmonized methodology to report the carbon footprint of the life-cycle of vehicles in order to consider the global impact of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles on the environment. This regulation should be reviewed in 2028 to incorporate this harmonized methodology of an extended carbon accounting as new indicator for further reduction targets beyond 2030.

(9) The strengthened CO2 emission reduction requirements should incentivise an increasing share of net zero-emission vehicles and fuels being deployed on the Union market whilst providing benefits to consumers and citizens in terms of air quality and energy savings, as well as ensuring that innovation and employment levels in the automotive value chain can be maintained in Europe and that mobility remains accessible and affordable for everyone. Within the global context, also the EU automotive chain must be a leading actor in the on- going transition towards net zero-greenhouse gas emission mobility and fuels solutions. The strengthened CO2 emission reduction standards armust be technology neutral in reaching the fleet- wide targets that they set. Different technologies are and remain available to reach the zero-emission fleet wide targets. ZLow and zero-emission vehicles currently include battery electric vehicles, fuel-cell and other hydrogen powered vehicles, depending on their respective full lifecycle emissions and technological innovations are continuing. Zero and low-emission vehicles, which also include well performing plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, and vehicles powered by alternative sustainable biofuels and biogases which can continue to play a role in the transition pathway.

(12) The updated New Industrial Strategy26 foresees the co-creation of green and digital transition pathways in partnership with industry, public authorities, social partners and other stakeholders. In this context, a transition pathway should be developed for the mobility ecosystem to accompany the transition of the automotive value chain. The pathway should take particular heed of SMEs in the automotive supply chain, of the consultation of social partners including by Member States, and also build on the European Skills Agenda with initiatives like the Pact for Skills to mobilise the private sector and other stakeholders to up-skill and re-skill Europe’s workforce in view of the green and digital transitions. The appropriate actions and incentives at European and national level to boost the affordability of low- and zero emission vehicles should also be addressed in the pathway. The progress made on this comprehensive transition pathway for the mobility ecosystem should be monitored every two years as part of a progress report to be submitted by the Commission, looking inter alia at the progress in the deployment of low- and zero- emission vehicles, their price developments, deployment of alternative fuels development and infrastructure roll- out as required under the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation, the potential of innovative technologies to reach climate neutral mobility, international competitiveness, investments in the automotive value chain, up-skilling and re- skilling of workers and reconversion of activities. The progress report will also build on the two-yearly progress reports that Member States submit under the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation. The Commission should consult social partners in the preparation of the progress report, including the results in the social dialogue. Innovations in the automotive supply chain are continuing. Innovative technologies such as the production of electro-fuels with air capture, if further developed, could offer prospects for affordable climate neutral mobility. The Commission should therefore keep track of progress in the state of innovation in the sector as part of its progress report. _________________ 26 Commission Communication - Updating the 2020 New Industrial Strategy: Building a stronger Single Market for Europe’s recovery, COM(2021) 350 final of 5 May 2021

(14) Manufacturers should be provided with sufficient flexibility in adapting their fleets over time in order to manage the transition towards low- and zero-emission vehicles in a cost-efficient manner, and it is therefore appropriat. The progressively more ambitious emission reduction targets as set in Regulation (EU) 2019/631 have increased the costs of compliance for manufacturers. It is therefore of the utmost importance to maintain the approach of decreasing target levels in five-year steps.

(15) With the stricter EU fleet-wide targets from 2030 onwards, manufacturers will have to deploy significantly more zero-emission vehicles on the Union market. In that context, the incentive mechanism for zero- and low-emission vehicles (‘ZLEV’) would no longer serve its original purpose and would risk undermining the effectiveness of Regulation (EU) 2019/631. The ZLEV incentive mechanism should therefore be removed as of 2030. Before that date and therefore throughout this decade, the incentive mechanism for ZLEV will continue to support the deployment of vehicles with emissions from zero up to 50 g CO2/km, including battery electric vehicles, fuel-cell electric vehicles using hydrogen and well performing plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. After that date, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles continue to count against the fleet-wide targets that vehicle manufacturers must meetlow- and zero- emission vehicles on the Union market. The incentive mechanism for ZLEV will continue to support the deployment of vehicles with emissions from zero up to 50 g CO2/km.

Article 14a – paragraph 2
In the reporting, the Commission shall consider all factors that contribute to a cost-efficient progress towards climate neutrality by 2050. This includes the deployment of zero- and low-emission vehicles, to be analysed not under a purely tailpipe-emissions-based measurement, but under a holistic life- cycle analysis-based approach to emissions, taking into account also the green-house gas intensity at mineral extraction, production and end-of-life stages, allowing inter alia for the accounting of green steel and recycled materials, as well as the energy mix in the respective Member State of circulation, progress in achieving the targets for the roll-out of recharging and refuelling infrastructure as required under the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation, the potential contribution of innovation technologies and sustainable alternative fuels to reach climate neutral mobility, impact on consumers, progress in social dialogue as well as aspects to further facilitate an economically viable and socially fair transition towards zero emission road mobility.;
Amendment 426 #
The report shall, where appropriate, be accompanied by a proposal for amending this Regulation and identifying a clear pathway for further CO2 emissions reductions by introducing EU fleet-wide targets for new passenger cars fleet and for new light commercial vehicles fleet from 1 January 2035 and from 1 January 2040, based on a LCA methodology developed by the European Commission no later than 31 December 2023.
