Abgasnorm
In 1989 the first European emission standards were introduced voluntarily by a number of European nations, ahead of the legal deadline of July 1992. This meant that the 2CV was withdrawn from sale in Austria, Denmark, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and The Netherlands—the latter one of the car's largest remaining markets. That year the three leading markets for the 2CV were West Germany (7866), France (5231) and the UK (3200).
