amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1152 to clarify and simplify the correlation procedure and to adapt it to changes to Regulation (EU) 2017/1151

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 510/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 May 2011 setting emission performance standards for new light commercial vehicles as part of the Union's integrated approach to reduce CO2 emissions from light duty vehicles (1), and in particular the third subparagraph of Article 13(6) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Based on the experience gained from the implementation of Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/1151 (2) and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1152 (3), it has become evident that certain elements of the latter Regulation should be amended. |

(1)

Based on the experience gained from the implementation of Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/1151 (2) and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1152 (3), it has become evident that certain elements of the latter Regulation should be amended.

| (2) | It is necessary to complement the existing method for defining the end-points of the interpolation line used for calculating the NEDC CO2 emission value of an individual vehicle. Those end-points, which are represented by a test vehicle with the highest CO2 emission values, and test vehicle with the lowest values, should be defined so that the difference between the two test vehicles high and low is equal to or higher than 5 g CO2/km. |

It is necessary to complement the existing method for defining the end-points of the interpolation line used for calculating the NEDC CO2 emission value of an individual vehicle. Those end-points, which are represented by a test vehicle with the highest CO2 emission values, and test vehicle with the lowest values, should be defined so that the difference between the two test vehicles high and low is equal to or higher than 5 g CO2/km.
