Recital 3
(3) The type-approval requirements relating to emissions from motor vehicles have been gradually and significantly tightened through the introduction and subsequent revision of Euro standards. While vehicles in general have delivered substantial emission reductions across the range of regulated pollutants, this was not the case for NOx emissions from diesel engines or particles for gasoline direct injection engines, installed in particular in light-duty vehicles. Actions for correcting this situation are therefore needed, mostly due to illegal practices that resulted in discrepancies between emissions measured in laboratories and those in real use conditions, including hazardous spikes in particles resulting from cars cleaning their filters. Actions for correcting this situation are therefore needed to ensure Euro 6 standards are met under normal condition of use and to enable Member States to comply with Union air quality standards without further delay, in particular in urban areas.

(8a) The European Parliament’s resolution of 28 March 2019 on recent developments in the ‘Dieselgate’ scandal welcomed the ruling of the General Court, and explicitly asked the Commission not to introduce any new conformity factor in order to ensure Euro 6 standards are not further diluted but are met under normal conditions of use, as originally provided for in Regulation (EC) 715/2007.

(9a) On 11 December 2019, the Commission published its Communication on the European Green Deal, which highlights the need to accelerate the shift to sustainable and smart mobility, including by addressing and tackling all emission sources, and ensuring a clear pathway from 2025 onwards towards zero- emission mobility. To deliver on that ambition, it is essential that the Commission presents, as soon as possible and by June 2021 at the latest, new legislative proposals to introduce more stringent air pollution emissions standards for combustion-engine vehicles, covering all pollutants and all fuels and powertrains under all driving conditions, as well as an action plan on the reconversion of the automotive industry. The Commission should also phase out the sale of new passenger cars and light commercial vehicles with combustion engines by 2035 at the latest, while ensuring rules do not prevent frontrunner countries to apply more stringent measures at national level in order to decarbonise road transport.

Recital 11
Recital 11
(11) In order to contribute to the achievement of the Union’s air quality objectives and to reduce vehicle emissions, the power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFUE) should be delegated to the Commission in respect of the detailed rules on the specific procedures, tests and requirements for type approval. That delegation should include supplementing Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 by such revised rules as well as the test cycles used to measure emissions; the requirements for the implementation of the prohibition on the use of defeat devices that reduce the effectiveness of emission control systems; the measures necessary for the implementation of the obligation of a manufacturer to provide unrestricted and standardised access to vehicle repair and maintenance information; the adoption of a revised measurement procedure for particulates. The delegation should further include amending Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 for the purposes of revising the final conformity factors downwards to reflect technical progress in PEMS and recalibrating the particulate mass based limit values and introducing particle number based limit values. It is of particular importance that the Commission carry out appropriate consultations during its preparatory work, including at expert level, and that those consultations are conducted in accordance with the principles laid down in the Interinstitutional Agreement on Better Law-Making of 13 April 2016. In particular, to ensure equal participation in the preparation of delegated acts, the European Parliament and the Council should receive all documents at the same time as Member States’ experts, and their experts systematically should have access to meetings of Commission expert groups dealing with the preparation of delegated acts.

Recital 14
(14) Since tThe objectives of this Regulation, namely to lay down rules on emissions from motor vehicles in order to contribute to the achievement of the basic air quality objectives, cannot only be sufficiently achieved by the Member States as motorif vehicles with a valid type approval may be marketed across national boundaries but can rather, by reason of the scale and effects of the action, be better achieved at Union level, the Union may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty on European Union. In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Regulation does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve those objectivescombustion engines, including even those with a valid type approval, may be banned.

Those obligations include meeting the emission limits set out in Annex I. For the purposes of determining compliance with the Euro 6 emission limits set out in Table 2 of Annex I, the emission values determined during any valid Real Driving Emissions (RDE) test shall be divided by the applicable conformity factor set out in Table 2a of Annex I. The result shall remain below the Euro 6 emission limits set out in Table 2 of that Annex.;

1. With effect from 2 July 2007, if a manufacturer so requests, the nNational authorities may not, on grounds relating to emissions or fuel consumption of vehicles, refuse to grant EC type approval or national type approval for a new type of vehicle, or may prohibit the registration, sale or entry into service of a new vehicle, including where the vehicle concerned complies with this Regulation, and in particular with the Euro 5 limit values set out in Table 1 of Annex I or with the Euro 6 limit values set out in Table 2 of Annex I, subject to the second subparagraph of Article 4(1).
