Recital 1 a (new)
Recital 1 a (new)
(1a) Introducing a further target of 50 g CO2/km for 2025 will help to ensure that the fuel efficiency of passenger cars will continue to improve beyond 2020, the economy will be less vulnerable towards oil price shocks and ultra-low carbon vehicles will penetrate the market in significant numbers to help meet the targets set out in the Commission's "Roadmap for moving to a competitive low carbon economy in 2050"1. _____________________ 1 COM(2011)0112.

(1c) This Regulation should recognise the potential harm for the industry of introducing a 2025 target at a later date, which would disturb the planning reliability needed to reach an ambitious 2025 target.

Recital 2 a (new)
(2a) Manufacturers' compliance with the targets under this Regulation should be assessed at Union 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 adjusted according to 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 and the likely upper marginal costs of compliance with this Regulation. The amounts of the excess emissions premium should be considered as revenue for the general budget of the Union.

(2b) The cost estimates of achieving the 95 g CO2/km target in 2020 are considerably lower than initial projections. Achieving that target is deemed feasible and hence no phase-in is deemed necessary for the date of application of this Regulation.

(3) In recognition of the high research and development and unit production costs of early generations of ultra-low carbon vehicles it is appropriate to accelerate and facilitate, on an interim basis and to a limited extent, the process of their introduction into the Union market at their initial stages of commercializationset a limit value for 2025 now, in order to provide planning certainty.

Recital 8 a (new)
(8a) Some alternative fuels offer significant reductions in CO2 emissions, but it is now coming to be acknowledged that if the entire life cycle is taken into account CO2 emissions from these alternative fuels could be higher than those from conventional fuels. Emissions from all alternative fuels which are linked to upstream energy generation should therefore be taken into account, since the market share of these fuels is increasing.

Recital 12
(12) The power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union should be delegated to the Commission in order to supplement the rules on derogations from the specific emissions targets, to amend data requirements for the purpose of monitoring of CO2 emissions and to adjust the formulae for calculating the specific CO2 emissions in Annex I to changes in the vehicle massfootprint value and the regulatory test procedure for the measurement of specific CO2 emissions referred to in Regulation (EC) No 715/2007. It is of particular importance that the Commission carry out appropriate consultations during its preparatory work, including at expert level. The Commission, when preparing and drawing up delegated acts, should ensure a simultaneous, timely and appropriate transmission of relevant documents to the European Parliament and to the Council.

Recital 13 a (new)
(13a) The Commission should consider new modalities for reaching the long-term target, in particular the slope of the curve, the utility parameter and the excess emissions premium scheme. For the sake of social equity and sustainability, there should be no utility parameter and slope from 2025 onwards.
