(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’)44 and 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).

(5) Incorporating the requirements laid down in Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 and Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 into a single Regulation should ensure internal coherence of the system of emission type- approvals for both light and heavy-duty vehicles, while allowing for different emission limits and testing parameters for such vehicles.

(7) It is also necessary to reduce complexity, administrative and implementation costs for manufacturers and authorities and to ensure effective and efficient implementation of the Euro emission standards. Simplification is achieved by eliminating differentThe process of simplification involves removing various application dates for the limits and tests which existed underfound in Euro 6 and Euro VI, by eliminating multiple and complex emission tests where such tests are not needed, by referring toexcessive and convoluted emission tests, referencing relevant standards underfrom existing UN Regulations where applicable, and by ensurestablishing a streamlined and consistentstandardized set of procedures and tests for the various phases of the emission type- approval. all phases of emission type-approval. To this end, it is imperative that this regulatory act upholds the mobility rights of EU citizens, while ensuring freedom of choice in purchasing their preferred vehicle or engine. It is also essential to keep the prices of private and commercial vehicles affordable for citizens and businesses, to maintain industrial competitiveness and innovation, and to support job creation and skill development in the sector. To achieve these goals, the EU should offer dedicated financial resources and programs as the industry transitions towards carbon neutrality.

(7 a) The rising cost of living is the most pressing worry for 93% of European citizens according to the results of the European Parliament’s Autumn 2022 Eurobarometer1a. It is therefore vitally important to ensure affordable new vehicle prices for consumers and businesses as they provide essential mobility, and often represent the primary mode of transportation due to limited public transportation options, particularly in suburban and rural areas. In this context, the Commission's estimates of additional direct costs for vehicle categories appear incomplete, as they neglect to account for the indirect costs to consumers and the increased manufacturing expenditure associated with battery-electric vehicles, particularly battery durability. According to industry analysis, the actual average incremental direct costs of Euro 7, primarily driven by equipment and investment expenditures, significantly exceed the figures presented in the impact assessment. These higher estimates range from €2,000 per passenger car/light-duty vehicle to €12,000 per heavy-duty vehicle, representing a four to tenfold increase compared to the Commission's projections

(7 b) The Commission's impact assessment also overlooks the high indirect costs to consumers resulting from increased fuel consumption, especially for heavy-duty vehicles. These unaccounted outgoings could exceed the total costs reported in the Commission evaluation. Experts in the industry note that meeting the proposed Euro 7 requirements may lead to higher fuel consumption, including additional fuel required to warm up the catalytic converter during cold starts. This results in substantial additional indirect costs for consumers and logistics companies. For example, a heavy-duty vehicle with a mileage of around 1 million kilometres and a fuel consumption rate of 25 litres per 100 kilometres, with diesel priced at €2 per litre, would incur an extra cost of €17,500 over its lifetime due to a 3.5%-point fuel increase. Similarly, the fuel cost increase for passenger cars and light commercial vehicles under Euro 7 would amount to approximately €700 per vehicle1a. Moreover, the impact assessment fails to account for other factors that could escalate costs for consumers, such as new requirements related to reducing tyre abrasion emissions, higher charges associated with battery-electric vehicles, and potential limitations in entry-level vehicle choices for consumers.

(11) There are now technologies available and used widely worldwide that limit evaporative emissions of volatile organic compounds during the use, parking and refuelling of a vehicle with petrol fuel. It is therefore appropriate to set the emission limits for such volatile organic compounds at a lower level and introduce emission limits for the refuelling phase. for new vehicles and Member States may adopt other measures at the national level to ensure that Stage II refuelling controls at petrol stations, in accordance with Commission Directive 2014/99/EU, maintain their efficacy in controlling refuelling of all petrol-run vehicles.

(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 proposdeveloped in the UN WP29 common GRBP/GRPE Task Force on Tyre Abrasion with the view of ensuring consistency in the definition of tyre abrasion limits. Additionally, the report should comprehensively evaluate the impact of the tyre abrasion rate limits and requirements, which will address deficiencies identified in the impact assessment of this Regulation.

(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 through action to deter the advertising, sale and installation of tampering devices. 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 withall Member States should introduce vehicle mileage recording when a vehicle is serviced or during a periodic technical inspection. Accordingly, it is important that new vehicles are designed with appropriate security protection of those systems.

(16) Sensors and other sophisticated strategies installed on vehicles are already used today to detect anomalies on emissions and trigger related repairs through the on-board diagnostic (OBD) system. The OBD system currently in use, however, does not detect accurately or timely the malfunctions and neither does it sufficiently and timely force repairs. As a result, ienhance their functionality in order to detect anomalies on exhaust emissions, store data and trigger the need for related repairs through the on-board diagnostic (OBD) system and the dashboard Malfunction Indicator (MI). It is possible that vehicles emit much more than they are allowed to do. The sensors used up to now for OBD can also be used to moni depending on how promptly drivers or operators and control the emission behaviour of the vehicles on a continuous basis via an on-board monitoring (OBM) system. The OBM will also warn the user to perform repairs of the engine or the pollution control systems when these are needed. It isddress the warning signalled by the MI. In some cases, sensors that have been ordinarily used for OBD can also serve the purpose of monitoring the exhaust emission behaviour of vehicles, thereby enhancing ther efore appropriate to require that such a system is installed and to regulate its technical requirementsficiency and functionality of OBD.

(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 possiblefor new types should be 36 months from the adoption of all corresponding implementing and delegated acts enacted in accordance with this Regulation, for heavy -duty vehicles and trailers the date of application may be further delayed by two yearsfor new types should be 48 months from the adoption of all corresponding implementing and delegated acts enacted in accordance with this Regulation, since the transition to zero and low-emission vehicles will be longera major technological challenge requiring additional lead time for heavy -duty vehicles.

(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’)44 and 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).

Simplification is achieved by eliminating differentThe process of simplification involves removing various application dates for the limits and tests which existed underfound in Euro 6 and Euro VI, by eliminating multiple and complex emission tests where such tests are not needed, by referring toexcessive and convoluted emission tests, referencing relevant standards underfrom existing UN Regulations where applicable, and by ensurestablishing a streamlined and consistentstandardized set of procedures and tests for the various phases of the emission type- approval. all phases of emission type-approval. To this end, it is imperative that this regulatory act upholds the mobility rights of EU citizens, while ensuring freedom of choice in purchasing their preferred vehicle or engine. It is also essential to keep the prices of private and commercial vehicles affordable for citizens and businesses, to maintain industrial competitiveness and innovation, and to support job creation and skill development in the sector. To achieve these goals, the EU should offer dedicated financial resources and programs as the industry transitions towards carbon neutrality.

(7a) The rising cost of living is the most pressing worry for 93% of European citizens according to the results of the European Parliament’s Autumn 2022 Eurobarometer1a. It is therefore vitally important to ensure affordable new vehicle prices for consumers and businesses as they provide essential mobility, and often represent the primary mode of transportation due to limited public transportation options, particularly in suburban and rural areas. In this context, the Commission's estimates of additional direct costs for vehicle categories appear incomplete, as they neglect to account for the indirect costs to consumers and the increased manufacturing expenditure associated with battery-electric vehicles, particularly battery durability. According to industry analysis, the actual average incremental direct costs of Euro 7, primarily driven by equipment and investment expenditures, significantly exceed the figures presented in the impact assessment. These higher estimates range from €2,000 per passenger car/light-duty vehicle to €12,000 per heavy-duty vehicle, representing a four to tenfold increase compared to the Commission's projections

(7b) The Commission's impact assessment also overlooks the high indirect costs to consumers resulting from increased fuel consumption, especially for heavy-duty vehicles. These unaccounted outgoings could exceed the total costs reported in the Commission evaluation. Experts in the industry note that meeting the proposed Euro 7 requirements may lead to higher fuel consumption, including additional fuel required to warm up the catalytic converter during cold starts. This results in substantial additional indirect costs for consumers and logistics companies. For example, a heavy-duty vehicle with a mileage of around 1 million kilometres and a fuel consumption rate of 25 litres per 100 kilometres, with diesel priced at €2 per litre, would incur an extra cost of €17,500 over its lifetime due to a 3.5%-point fuel increase. Similarly, the fuel cost increase for passenger cars and light commercial vehicles under Euro 7 would amount to approximately €700 per vehicle1a. Moreover, the impact assessment fails to account for other factors that could escalate costs for consumers, such as new requirements related to reducing tyre abrasion emissions, higher charges associated with battery-electric vehicles, and potential limitations in entry-level vehicle choices for consumers.

(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 proposdeveloped in the UN WP29 common GRBP/GRPE Task Force on Tyre Abrasion with the view of ensuring consistency in the definition of tyre abrasion limits.

(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 through action to deter the advertising, sale and installation of tampering devices. 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 withall Member States should introduce vehicle mileage recording when a vehicle is serviced or during a periodic technical inspection. Accordingly, it is important that new vehicles are designed with appropriate security protection of those systems.

(16) Sensors and other sophisticated strategies installed on vehicles are already used today to detect anomalies on emissions and trigger related repairs through the on-board diagnostic (OBD) system. The OBD system currently in use, however, does not detect accurately or timely the malfunctions and neither does it sufficiently and timely force repairs. As a result, ienhance their functionality in order to detect anomalies on exhaust emissions, store data and trigger the need for related repairs through the on-board diagnostic (OBD) system and the dashboard Malfunction Indicator (MI). It is possible that vehicles emit much more than they are allowed to do. The sensors used up to now for OBD can also be used to moni depending on how promptly drivers or operators and control the emission behaviour of the vehicles on a continuous basis via an on-board monitoring (OBM) system. The OBM will also warn the user to perform repairs of the engine or the pollution control systems when these are needed. It isddress the warning signalled by the MI. In some cases, sensors that have been ordinarily used for OBD can also serve the purpose of monitoring the exhaust emission behaviour of vehicles, thereby enhancing ther efore appropriate to require that such a system is installed and to regulate its technical requirementsficiency and functionality of OBD.
