(5) The current emission limits for CO and total hydrocarbons (THC) after a cold start at low temperature have been carried over from Euro 3 requirements set out in Directive 98/69/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council4, which appear to be outdated in the light of both existing vehicle technology and air quality needs. In addition, air quality problems and results of vehicle emission measurements suggest the need to introduce an appropriate limit for NOx/NO2 emissions.

(6a) The potential to reduce fuel consumption, and therefore pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions, through efficient driving behaviour, so-called ‘eco- driving’, is insufficiently exploited. This is mainly due to a lack of information or awareness on the part of drivers about how to drive efficiently. The technical means for facilitating eco-driving is focused on two types of in-vehicle systems: fuel consumption meters (FCM) and gear shift indicators (GSI). A FCM is a device providing the driver with accurate information about the real fuel consumption of the vehicle, including instantaneous fuel consumption, average fuel consumption, fuel consumption when idling, lifetime fuel consumption and an estimation of the range of the vehicle based on the current fuel level. A GSI indicates the optimal gear when that is different from the selected gear, and what the driver should do (shift up or down) to minimise fuel consumption. Its purpose is to give the driver of a vehicle with a manual gearbox a visual warning when a gear change is necessary. GSI have already been made mandatory in new passenger cars of category M1 which are fitted with a manual gearbox, but not in any other type of motor vehicle such as light commercial vehicles, trucks or buses. In contrast, no legal requirement exists to fit FCM in any category of motor vehicle at present. Studies show that the potential of eco-driving can be better exploited when using both systems at the same time. Furthermore, FCM could help consumers to buy vehicles with low fuel consumption. This would be pertinent in particular in the case of heavy duty vehicles where no legal requirement exists at present to display the fuel efficiency and CO2 emissions of vehicles offered for sale. FCM and GSI can be installed at small cost for the vehicle manufacturer but are currently often unavailable or sold as part of options packages, which impedes their widespread use. Furthermore, where available, such devices are often installed in ways that are not well suited to facilitate eco-driving (e.g. no permanent visibility, no instantaneous information on fuel consumption, divergence between the fuel consumption displayed and the actual one).

(4) Modern diesel vehicles emit high and increasing amounts of NO2 as a share of the total NOx emissions which were not anticipated when Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 was adopted. Most air quality problems in affected urban areas appear to be related to direct NO2 emissions. On the other hand, diesel vehicles are responsible for the majority of particulate matter emissions from road traffic. Therefore, an appropriate emission limit should be introduced.

Most air quality problems in affected urban areas appear to be related to direct NO2 emissions. ~~Therefore, an appropriate emission limit should be introduced~~While NO is easily converted into NO2 in the atmosphere, a stringent NOx limit, controlled against emission levels observed in real driving conditions, is the most effective way to ensure low NO2 concentrations in the ambient air.

(5) The current emission limits for CO and total hydrocarbons (THC) after a cold start at low temperature have been carried over from Euro 3 requirements set out in Directive 98/69/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council4 , which appear to be outdated in the light of existing vehicle technology and air quality needs. In addition, air quality problems and results of vehicle emission measurements suggest the need to introduce an appropriate limit for NOx/NO2 emissions. ~~Therefore~~Causing 41% of NOx emissions, traffic is by far the main source of these emissions. Especially, the high efficiency of state-of- the-art motors is due to higher combustion temperatures which, in turn, produce higher amounts of NOx. NO2, on the other hand, is responsible for ozone formation, acid rain and irritation of the human respiratory system. Consequently, revised emission limits should be introduced pursuant to Article 14(5) of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007. __________________ 4 Directive 98/69/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 October 1998 relating to measures to be taken against air pollution by emissions from motor vehicles and amending Council Directive 70/220/EEC (OJ L 350, 28.12.1998, p. 1).

(6a) The potential to reduce fuel consumption, and therefore pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions, through efficient driving behaviour, is insufficiently exploited. This is mainly due to a lack of information or awareness on the part of drivers about how to drive efficiently. Fuel consumption meters (FCM) and gear shift indicators (GSI) effectively facilitate efficient driving when used at the same time. It is therefore appropriate to introduce those systems as a requirement for the type-approval of motor vehicles in Regulation (EC) No 661/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council5a. __________________ 5aRegulation (EC) No 661/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 July 2009 concerning type-approval requirements for the general safety of motor vehicles, their trailers and systems, components and separate technical units intended therefor (OJ L 200, 31.7.2009, p. 1).

(6a) The potential to reduce fuel consumption, and therefore pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions, through efficient driving behaviour, so-called 'eco- driving', is insufficiently exploited. This is mainly due to a lack of information or awareness on the part of drivers about how to drive efficiently. The technical means for facilitating eco-driving is focused on two types of in-vehicle systems: fuel consumption meters (FCM) and gear shift indicators (GSI).

Amendment 33 #

Recital 6 b (new)

(6b) In accordance with the Commission's impact assessment, mandatory installation of fuel consumption meters would not put big burden on vehicle manufacturers. They can be installed at small cost, the biggest part of it links to the displaying of the information. Currently FCM are often unavailable or sold as part of optional packages, which impedes their widespread use. Furthermore, where available, such devices are often installed in ways that are not well suited to facilitate eco-driving (e.g. no permanent visibility, no instantaneous information on fuel consumption, divergence between the fuel consumption displayed and the actual one). At the same time, widespread availability of FCM could help vehicle users to decrease the emissions level and to monitor the fuel consumption. It would empower consumers when it comes to purchasing vehicles. Finally, consumers would be able to make the decision, particularly when buying used vehicles, on the basis of realistic information on fuel consumption.

Manufacturers may charge reasonable and proportionate fees for access to vehicle repair and maintenance information covered by this Regulation; a fee is not reasonable or proportionate if it discourages access by failing to take into account the extent to which the independent operator uses it. 2. Manufacturers shall make available vehicle repair and maintenance information including transactional services such as reprogramming or technical assistance on an hourly, daily, monthly, and yearly basis, with fees for access to such information varying in accordance with the respective periods of time for which access is granted. In addition to time-based access, manufacturers may offer transaction- based access, for which fees are charged per transaction and not based on the time for which access is granted. Where both access systems are offered by manufacturers, independent repairers shall choose a preferred access system, either time-based or transaction-basedis replaced by the following: "Article 7 Access to vehicle repair and maintenance information Manufacturers shall provide free access to vehicle repair and maintenance information covered by this Regulation.".
