13a. In recognition of the very high research and development and unit production costs of early generations of very low carbon vehicle technologies to be introduced into the marketplace following the entry into force of this Regulation, which also incorporates specific provisions on a provisional basis aimed at accelerating the introduction to the European Market of ultra low carbon vehicles at their initial stages of commercialisation;

(13) The aim of this Regulation is to create incentives for the car industry to invest in new technologies. The Regulation actively promotes eco-innovation and takes into account future technological developments. In this way, the competitiveness of the European Industry is enhanced and more high-quality jobs created. The Commission may consider the possibility of including eco-innovation measures in the review of test procedures pursuant to Article 14(3) of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007, taking into consideration technical and economic impacts.

Recital 22
(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 2012 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 on a realistic and feasible basis. The amounts of the excess emissions premium should be considered as revenue for the budget of the European Union and used to increase support for CO2 reduction research and innovation activities in the automotive sector.

Article 4 a (new)
Article 4a Ultra low carbon vehicles For the purposes of determining compliance by individual manufacturers of passenger cars with the specific emissions target referred to in Article 4, each ultra low carbon vehicle registered in the European Union shall contribute to the calculation of the manufacturer’s average specific emissions of CO2 on a multiplier basis, to be progressively phased out between the 1 January 2012 and 1 January 2016, as laid down in Annex 1a.

Proposal for a regulation
Article 1
Article 1
Subject matter and objectives Subject matter, objectives and targets This Regulation establishes CO2 emission performance requirements for new passenger cars in order to ensure proper functioning of the internal market and achieve the EU's overall objective that the average new car fleet should achieve CO2 emissions of 120 g CO2/kmof reducing CO2 emissions in the EU, including in the transport sector. The Regulation sets a target, for the new car fleet, of an average 120 g CO2/km as from 1 January 2012. The Regulation sets the average CO2 emissions for new passenger cars at 130 g CO2/km by means of improvement in vehicle motor technology as measured in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 and its implementing measures. This Regulation will be complemented by additional measures corresponding to 10 g/km as part of the Community's integrated approach. The target shall be reviewed by 1 January 2020.
