Article 1 Subject matter and objectives
1. This Regulation establishes CO 2 emissions performance requirements for new passenger cars and for new light commercial vehicles in order to contribute to achieving the Union's target of reducing its greenhouse gas emissions, as laid down in Regulation (EU) 2018/842, and the objectives of the Paris Agreement and to ensure the proper functioning of the internal market. 3. This Regulation will, until 31 December 2024, be complemented by additional measures corresponding to a reduction of 10 g CO 2 /km as part of the Union's integrated approach referred to in the Commission's communication of 7 February 2007 entitled ‘Results of the review of the Community Strategy to reduce CO 2 emissions from passenger cars and light-commercial vehicles’. 4. From 1 January 2025, the following EU fleet-wide targets shall apply: (a) for the average emissions of the new passenger car fleet, an EU fleet-wide target equal to a 15 % reduction of the target in 2021determined in accordance with point 6.1.1 of Part A of Annex I; (b) for the average emissions of the new light commercial vehicles fleet, an EU fleet-wide target equal to a 15 % reduction of the target in 2021 determined in accordance with point 6.1.1 of Part B of Annex I. 5. From 1 January 2030, the following EU fleet-wide targets shall apply: (a) for the average emissions of the new passenger car fleet, an EU fleet-wide target equal to a 55 % reduction of the target in 2021 determined in accordance with point 6.1.2 of Part A of Annex I; (b) for the average emissions of the new light commercial vehicles fleet, an EU fleet- wide target equal to a 50 % reduction of the target in 2021 determined in accordance with point 6.1.2 of Part B of Annex I. 5a. From 1 January 2035, the following EU fleet-wide targets shall apply: (a) for the average emissions of the new passenger car fleet, an EU fleet-wide target equal to a 100 % reduction of the target in 2021 determined in accordance with Part A, point 6.1.3, of Annex I; (b) for the average emissions of the new light commercial vehicles fleet, an EU fleet-wide target equal to a 100 % reduction of the target in 2021 determined in accordance with Part B, point 6.1.3, of Annex I. 6. From 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2029, a zero- and low-emission vehicles' benchmark equal to a 25 % share of the fleet of new passenger cars and equal to a 17 % share of the fleet of new light commercial vehicles shall apply in accordance with points 6.3 of Parts A and B of Annex I, respectively.
Article 2 Scope
2. A previous registration outside the Union made less than three months before registration in the Union shall not be taken into account. 3. This Regulation shall not apply to special purpose vehicles as defined in Part A, point 5, of Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2018/858 . 4. Article 4, points (b) and (c) of Article 7(4), Article 8 and points (a) and (c) of Article 9(1) shall not apply to a manufacturer which, together with all of its connected undertakings, is responsible for fewer than 1 000 new passenger cars or for fewer than 1 000 new light commercial vehicles registered in the Union in the previous calendar year, unless that manufacturer applies for and is granted a derogation in accordance with Article 10.
Article 4 Specific emissions targets
For the purposes of the first subparagraph, point (c), where the specific emissions target determined in accordance with point 6.3 of Part A or B of Annex I is negative, the specific emissions target shall be 0 g/km. 2. In the case of light commercial vehicles, where the specific emissions of CO 2 of the completed vehicle are not available, the manufacturer of the base vehicle shall use the specific emissions of CO 2 of the base vehicle for determining its average specific emissions of CO 2 . 3. For the purposes of determining each manufacturer's average specific emissions of CO 2 , the following percentages of each manufacturer's new passenger cars registered in the relevant year shall be taken into account: — 95 % in 2020, — 100 % from 2021 onwards.
Amendment rationale: CONTEXT OF THE PROPOSAL Reasons for and objectives of the proposal Regulation (EU) 2019/631 1 sets CO 2 emission performance standards for new passenger cars and light commercial vehicles . It is a key contribut ion to achieve the objective s set in the EU climate law, including the 2050 climate neutrality and the 2030 target to reduce economy-wide CO 2 emissions by 55% compared to 1990. The automotive industry is of key importance for the EU economy and accounts for over 7% of the EU's GDP. It provides jobs - directly or indirectly, in manufacturing, sales, maintenance, construction and transport and transport services - to around 13 million Europeans. The automotive sector is undergoing a structural transformation including changes in clean and digital technologies, in particular the shift towards zero-emission vehicles. The CO 2 standards provide long-term certainty and predictability for investors along the value chain, therefore enabling such sectoral transformation, while allowing sufficient lead time for a fair transition. The regulation requires that the annual EU fleet-wide average CO 2 emissions from new cars and new vans are reduced in five-year intervals. In 2025, a target of 15% reduction of CO 2 compared to 2021 values starts applying in each year for the 2025–2029 period. Each year, the average CO 2 emissions and the specific CO 2 emissions target for each manufacturer are established, based on the EU fleet-wide target, in order to evaluate the manufacturers’ performance in complying with their targets. Manufacturers exceeding their specific emissions target pay an excess emission premium of €95 per g/km for each new vehicle registered. I n the context of the Strategic Dialogue on the Future of the Automotive Industry that took place in Q1 2025 and as announced in the Commission Automotive Action Plan of 5 March 2025, the proposal concerns a targeted change of the Regulation (EU) 2019/631 to provide manufacturers with an additional flexibility as regards their compliance obligations , by provid ing for a three-year compliance period for 2025, 2026 and 2027 , instead of an annual period . The targeted amendment introduces such additional flexibility for manufacturers while maintaining the level of ambition of the emissions reduction target. To maintain regulatory certainty and predictability, it is essential that this one-off flexibility to allow compliance over a three-year compliance period is agreed between the European Parliament and Council swiftly and without delay. 
Revised version (Article 4 Specific emissions targets):
For the purposes of the first subparagraph, point (c), where the specific emissions target determined in accordance with point 6.3 of Part A or B of Annex I is negative, the specific emissions target shall be 0 g/km. 1a. By way of derogation from paragraph 1, for the three-year period comprising the calendar years 2025 to 2027, a manufacturer, including when it is a member of a pool, shall ensure that its average specific emissions of CO 2 over that period do not exceed its specific emissions target over that period. Those average specific emissions of CO 2 shall be calculated as the average over the three-year period of the annual average specific emissions of CO 2 weighted according to the number of newly registered vehicles for the manufacturer in each calendar year. The specific emissions target shall be calculated as the average over the three-year period of the annual specific emissions targets determined in accordance with point 6.3 of Part A or Part B of Annex I or, where a manufacturer is granted a derogation under Article 10, in accordance with that derogation, weighted according to the number of newly registered vehicles for the manufacturer in each calendar year. For each calendar year in which a manufacturer was included in a pool, the annual average specific emissions of CO 2 and the annual specific emissions target to be used for those calculations shall be the values for that pool. 2. In the case of light commercial vehicles, where the specific emissions of CO 2 of the completed vehicle are not available, the manufacturer of the base vehicle shall use the specific emissions of CO 2 of the base vehicle for determining its average specific emissions of CO 2 . 3. For the purposes of determining each manufacturer's average specific emissions of CO 2 , the following percentages of each manufacturer's new passenger cars registered in the relevant year shall be taken into account: — 95 % in 2020, — 100 % from 2021 onwards.
Article 5 Super-credits
In calculating the average specific emissions of CO 2 , each new passenger car with specific emissions of CO 2 of less than 50 g CO 2 /km shall be counted as: — 2 passenger cars in 2020, — 1,67 passenger cars in 2021, — 1,33 passenger cars in 2022, — 1 passenger car from 2023, for the year in which it is registered in the period from 2020 to 2022, subject to a cap of 7,5 g CO 2 /km over that period for each manufacturer, as calculated in accordance with Article 5 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1153.
Article 6 Pooling
1. Manufacturers, other than manufacturers which have been granted a derogation under Article 10, may form a pool for the purposes of meeting their obligations under Article 4. 3. Where the proposed pool manager fails to meet the requirement to pay any excess emissions premium imposed on the pool in accordance with Article 8, the Commission shall notify the manufacturers. 4. Manufacturers included in a pool shall jointly inform the Commission of any change of pool manager or of its financial status, in so far as this may affect its ability to meet the requirement to pay any excess emissions premium imposed on the pool in accordance with Article 8, and of any changes to the membership of the pool or the dissolution of the pool. 6. Paragraph 5 shall not apply where all the manufacturers included in the pool are part of the same group of connected manufacturers. 7. Except where notification is given under paragraph 3 of this Article, the manufacturers in a pool in respect of which information is filed with the Commission shall be considered as one manufacturer for the purposes of meeting their obligations under Article 4. Monitoring and reporting information in respect of individual manufacturers as well as any pools will be recorded, reported and made available in the central register referred to in Article 7(4). 8. The Commission may specify, by means of implementing acts, the detailed conditions that shall apply for a pooling arrangement set up pursuant to paragraph 5 of this Article. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 16(2).

Revised version (Article 8 Excess emissions premium):
1. In respect of each calendar year, the Commission shall impose an excess emissions premium on a manufacturer or pool manager, as appropriate, where a manufacturer's average specific emissions of CO 2 exceed its specific emissions target. By way of derogation from the first subparagraph, with respect to the calendar years 2025 to 2027, the Commission shall impose an excess emissions premium on any manufacturer whose average specific emissions of CO 2 over those three years exceed its specific emissions target over the period 2025 to 2027. 2. The excess emissions premium under paragraph 1 shall be calculated using the following formula: (Excess emissions × EUR 95) × number of newly registered vehicles. For the purposes of this Article, the following definitions shall apply: — ‘excess emissions’ means the positive number of grams per kilometre by which a manufacturer's average specific emissions of CO 2 , taking into account CO 2 emissions reductions due to innovative technologies approved in accordance with Article 11, exceeded its specific emissions target in the calendar year or part thereof to which the obligation under Article 4 applies, rounded to the nearest three decimal places, and — ‘number of newly registered vehicles’ means the number of new passenger cars or new light commercial vehicles counted separately of which it is the manufacturer and which were registered in that period according to the phase-in criteria as set out in Article 4(3). 3. The Commission shall determine, by means of implementing acts, the means for collecting excess emissions premiums imposed under paragraph 1 of this Article. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 16(2). 4. The amounts of the excess emissions premium shall be considered as revenue for the general budget of the Union.
Article 9 Publication of performance of manufacturers
2. The list published under paragraph 1 of this Article shall also indicate whether the manufacturer has complied with the requirements of Article 4 with respect to the preceding calendar year.
Article 10 Derogations for certain manufacturers
3. Where the Commission considers that the manufacturer is eligible for a derogation applied for under paragraph 1 and is satisfied that the specific emissions target proposed by the manufacturer is consistent with its reduction potential, including the economic and technological potential to reduce its specific emissions of CO 2 , and taking into account the characteristics of the market for the type of passenger car or light commercial vehicle manufactured, the Commission shall grant a derogation to the manufacturer. The application shall be submitted at the latest by 31 October of the first year in which the derogation shall apply. 4. An application for a derogation from the specific emissions target calculated in accordance with points 1 to 4 and 6.3 of Part A of Annex I may be made for the years until and including the calendar year 2028 by a manufacturer which is responsible, together with all of its connected undertakings, for between 10 000 and 300 000 new passenger cars registered in the Union per calendar year. Such application may be made by a manufacturer in respect of itself or in respect of itself together with any of its connected undertakings. An application shall be made to the Commission and shall include: (b) in relation to applications referring to points 1 to 4 of Part A of Annex I, a target which is a 45 % reduction on the average specific emissions of CO 2 in 2007 or, where a single application is made in respect of a number of connected undertakings, a 45 % reduction on the average of those undertakings' average specific emissions of CO 2 in 2007; (c) in relation to applications referring to point 6.3 of Part A of Annex I to this Regulation, a target applicable in the calendar years 2025 to 2028 which is the reduction specified in point (a) of Article 1(4) of this Regulation on the target calculated in accordance with point (b) of this paragraph taking into account the CO 2 emissions measured pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2017/1151. Where information on a manufacturer's average specific emissions of CO 2 does not exist for the year 2007, the Commission shall determine an equivalent reduction target based upon the best available CO 2 emissions reduction technologies deployed in passenger cars of comparable mass and taking into account the characteristics of the market for the type of car manufactured. That target shall be used by the applicant for the purposes of point (b) of the second subparagraph. The Commission shall grant a derogation to the manufacturer where it is demonstrated that the criteria for the derogation referred to in this paragraph have been met. 5. A manufacturer which is subject to a derogation in accordance with this Article shall notify the Commission immediately of any change which affects or may affect its eligibility for a derogation. 6. Where the Commission considers, whether on the basis of a notification under paragraph 5 or otherwise, that a manufacturer is no longer eligible for the derogation, it shall revoke the derogation with effect from 1 January of the next calendar year and shall notify the manufacturer thereof. 7. Where the manufacturer does not attain its specific emissions target, the Commission shall impose the excess emissions premium on the manufacturer, as set out in Article 8. 8. The Commission is empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 17 laying down rules to supplement paragraphs 1 to 7 of this Article, as regards the interpretation of the eligibility criteria for derogations, the content of the applications, and the content and assessment of programmes for the reduction of specific emissions of CO 2 . The Commission is also empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 17 to amend Part A of Annex I for the purpose of setting out the calculation formulae of the derogation targets referred to in point (c) of the second subparagraph of paragraph 4 of this Article. 9. Applications for a derogation, including the information supporting it, notifications under paragraph 5, revocations under paragraph 6, any imposition of an excess emissions premium under paragraph 7 and measures adopted pursuant to paragraph 8, shall be made publicly available, subject to Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council ( 1 ).
Article 11 Eco-innovation
1. Upon application by a supplier or a manufacturer, CO 2 savings achieved through the use of innovative technologies or a combination of innovative technologies (‘innovative technology packages’) shall be considered. Such technologies shall be taken into consideration only if the methodology used to assess them is capable of producing verifiable, repeatable and comparable results. The total contribution of those technologies to reducing the average specific emissions of CO 2 of a manufacturer may be up to: — 7 g CO 2 /km until 2024; — 6 g CO 2 /km from 2025 until 2029; — 4 g CO 2 /km from 2030 until and including 2034. The Commission is empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 17 in order to amend this Regulation by adjusting downwards the values of the cap referred to in the third subparagraph of this paragraph with effect from 2025 onwards to take into account technological developments while ensuring a balanced proportion of the level of that cap in relation to the average specific emissions of CO 2 of manufacturers. With effect from 1 January 2025, the criterion referred to in point (d)(i) of the first subparagraph shall not apply with regard to efficiency improvements for air conditioning systems. 3. A supplier or a manufacturer that applies for a measure to be approved as an innovative technology or innovative technology package shall submit a report, including a verification report undertaken by an independent and certified body, to the Commission. In the event of a possible interaction of the measure with another innovative technology or innovative technology package already approved, that report shall mention that interaction and the verification report shall evaluate to what extent that interaction modifies the reduction achieved by each measure. 4. The Commission shall attest the reduction achieved on the basis of the criteria set out in paragraph 2.
Article 12 Real-world CO 2 emissions and fuel or energy consumption
1. The Commission shall monitor and assess the real-world representativeness of the CO 2 emissions and fuel or energy consumption values determined pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 715/2007. Furthermore, the Commission shall regularly collect data on the real-world CO 2 emissions and fuel or energy consumption of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles using on-board fuel and/or energy consumption monitoring devices, starting with new passenger cars and new light commercial vehicles registered in 2021. The Commission shall ensure that the public is informed of how that real-world representativeness evolves over time. The Commission shall process the data received under the first subparagraph to create anonymised and aggregated datasets, including per manufacturer, for the purposes of paragraph 1. The vehicle identification numbers shall be used only for the purpose of that data processing and shall not be retained longer than needed for that purpose. 3. In order to prevent the real-world emissions gap from growing, the Commission shall, no later than 1 June 2023, assess how real-world fuel and energy consumption data collected pursuant to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/392 ( 2 ) may be used to ensure that the vehicle CO 2 emissions and fuel or energy consumption values determined pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 remain representative of real-world emissions over time for each manufacturer. The Commission shall monitor and report annually on how the gap referred to in the first subparagraph evolves from 2021 onwards and shall, as soon as sufficient data is available, and no later than 31 December 2026, publish a report setting out a methodology for a mechanism to adjust the average specific emissions of CO 2 of the manufacturer as of 2030 using real-world data collected pursuant to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/392, and assessing the feasibility of such a mechanism. The Commission shall submit that report to the European Parliament and to the Council, including, where appropriate, proposals for follow-up measures, such as legislative proposals to put such a mechanism in place. 4. The Commission shall adopt, by means of implementing acts, the detailed procedure for collecting and processing the data referred to in paragraph 2 of this Article. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 16(2).
Article 13 Verification of the CO 2 emissions of vehicles in-service
1. Manufacturers shall ensure that the CO 2 emission and fuel consumption values recorded in the certificates of conformity correspond to the CO 2 emissions from, and fuel consumption of, vehicles in-service as determined in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2017/1151. 2. Following the entry into force of the procedures referred to in the first subparagraph of paragraph 4, type-approval authorities shall verify for those vehicle families for which they are responsible for the type-approval, on the basis of appropriate and representative vehicle samples, that the CO 2 emission and fuel consumption values recorded in the certificates of conformity correspond to the CO 2 emissions from, and fuel consumption of, vehicles in-service as determined in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2017/1151 while considering, inter alia, available data from on-board fuel and/or energy consumption monitoring devices. Type-approval authorities shall also verify the presence of any strategies on board or relating to the sampled vehicles that artificially improve the vehicle's performance in the tests performed for the purpose of type-approval by, inter alia, using data from on-board fuel and/or energy consumption monitoring devices. 3. Where a lack of correspondence of CO 2 emission and fuel consumption values or the presence of any strategies artificially improving a vehicle's performance is found as a result of the verifications performed pursuant to paragraph 2, the responsible type-approval authority shall, in addition to taking the necessary measures set out in Chapter XI of Regulation (EU) 2018/858, ensure the correction of the certificates of conformity. Where the data in the type-approval documentation may not be corrected under Regulation (EU) 2018/858, the responsible type-approval authority shall issue a statement of correction with the corrected data and transmit that statement to the Commission and the parties concerned. 4. The Commission shall determine, by means of implementing acts, the procedures for performing the verifications referred to in paragraph 2 of this Article. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 16(2). The Commission is empowered, prior to adopting the implementing acts referred to in the first subparagraph of this paragraph, to adopt a delegated act in accordance with Article 17 in order to supplement this Regulation by setting out the guiding principles and criteria for defining the procedures referred to in the first subparagraph of this paragraph.
