Recital 2 a (new)
(2a) It is necessary to ensure that this regulation does not restrict individual mobility and that private vehicles are generally available for purchase. It is also necessary to provide support for manufacturers in the transition to vehicles without internal combustion engines in order to ensure their competitiveness and to protect jobs in this sector. In addition, there is a need to avoid the risk of possible increases in the price of vehicles covered by this regulation driving purchasers towards the second-hand market, thereby effectively undermining the expected emission reduction benefits.

Recital 14
(14) Vehicles with traction batteries, including plugin hybrids and battery electric vehicles, contribute to the decarbonisation of the road transport sector. In order to gain and increase consumer trust in such vehicles, they should be performant and durable. It is therefore important to require that traction batteries retain a good part of their initial capacity after many years of use. That is of particular importance to buyers of second hand electric vehicles to ensure that the vehicle will continue to perform as expected. Monitors of the battery state-of- health should therefore be required for all vehicles that use traction batteries. In addition minimum performance requirements for battery durability of passenger cars should be introduced, taking into account the UN Global Technical Regulation 2247. European research and development support for the production of batteries using less pollutant technologies should also be envisaged. __________________ 47 United Nations Global Technical Regulation on In-vehicle Battery Durability for Electrified Vehicles, UN GTR 22

Recital 15
Recital 15
(15) Tampering of vehicles to remove or deactivate parts of the pollution control systems is a well-known problem. Such practice leads to uncontrolled emissions and should be prevented. Tampering of the odometer, leads to false mileage and hampers the proper in-service control of a vehicle. It is therefore of the utmost importance to guarantee the highest possible security protection of those systems, complete with security certificates and appropriate anti-tampering protection to ensure that neither pollution control systems nor the vehicle odometer can be tampered with. Provision should also be made for an effective system of penalties for car manufacturers that devise and/or make use of control, diagnostic and monitoring systems that falsify readings, thereby appearing to bring them into line with this legislation. The proceeds thereof should be set aside and earmarked for households affected by transport poverty.
Amendment 545 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 11 – paragraph 3 a (new)
Article 11 – paragraph 3 a (new)
3a. The national authorities shall introduce penalties for manufacturers that design, produce and assemble vehicles fitted with defeat devices or mechanisms and for the deliberate falsification of readings to bring them into line with the parameters specified under this legislation. In addition, penalties shall be introduced for interfering and tampering with control, diagnostic and monitoring systems thereby falsifying readings and appearing to bring them into line with this legislation. The proceeds thereof shall be set aside and earmarked for households affected by transport poverty.
