(4) The technical requirements for the type-approval of motor vehicles, engines and replacement parts with regard to emissions (‘emission type-approval’) are currently set out in two Regulations that apply to emission type-approval for light- duty and heavy-duty vehicles respectively, i.e. Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council (‘Euro 6’)44and Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council (‘Euro VI’)45. The reason for having two Regulations was that the emissions of heavy-duty vehicles were checked based on engine testing, while for light-duty vehicles the basis was whole vehicle testing. Since then, methodologies have been developed that allow testing of both light- and heavy-duty vehicles on the road. It is therefore no longer necessary to base type-approval on engine testing. _________________ 44 Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 June 2007 on type-approval of motor vehicles with respect to emissions from light passenger and commercial vehicles (Euro 5 and Euro 6) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information (OJ L 171, 29.6.2007, p. 1). 45 Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 June 2009 on type-approval of motor vehicles and engines with respect to emissions from heavy duty vehicles (Euro VI) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information and amending Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 and Directive 2007/46/EC and repealing Directives 80/1269/EEC, 2005/55/EC and 2005/78/EC (OJ L 188, 18.7.2009, p. 1).

(8) In order to ensure that the emissions for both light and heavy duty vehicles are limited in real life, testing vehicles in real conditions of use with a minimumrelevant set of restrictions, boundaries and other driving requirements and not only in the laboratory is required. This on-road testing should exclude biased driving and rare driving conditions.

(12) Non-exhaust emissions consist of particles emitted by tyres and brakes of vehicles. Emissions from tyres is estimated to be the largest source of microplastics to the environment. As shown in the Impact Assessment, it is expected that by 2050, non-exhaust emissions will constitute up to 90% of all particles emitted by road transport, because exhaust particles will diminish due to vehicle electrification. Those non-exhaust emissions should therefore be measured and limited. The Commission should prepare a report on tyre abrasion by the end of 2024 to review the measurement methods and state-of-the- art in order to propose tyre abrasion limitscurrently under discussion in the relevant working groups of the UN World Forum for Harmonisation of Vehicle Regulations (WP29).

(18) In case the CommissionThe decarbonisation of the transport sector requires a technologically open framework. The Commission should thus deliver on its promise to makes a proposal for registering after 2035 new light-dutynew vehicles running exclusively on CO2 neutral fuels outside the scope of the CO2 fleet standards, and in conformity with Union law and the Union’´s climate neutrality objective, t. This Regulation will need to be amended to include the possibility to type approve such vehicles. should introduce the possibility for manufacturers to designate vehicles equipped with internal combustion engines running on CO2 neutral fuels, either exclusively or as a blend. For the purpose of the CO2 fleet standards for light and heavy duty vehicles, the CO2 tailpipe emissions from vehicles running exclusively on CO2 neutral fuels should be considered zero.

Recital 25
(25) It is important to grant Member States, national type-approval authorities and economic operators enough time to prepare for the application of the new rules introduced by this Regulation. The date of application should therefore be deferred. While for light duty vehicles the date of application should be as soon as technically possible, for heavy duty vehicles and trailers the date of application may be further delayed by two years, since the transition to zero-emission vehicles will be longer for heavy duty vehicles until all relevant secondary legislation has been adopted. Additionally, from this point in time, three years lead time for new types and five years lead time for all types enables a smooth transition.
