This directive updates rules on hazardous substances in vehicles that have reached the end of their life. It focuses on specific exemptions for lead and its compounds in certain vehicle parts, aiming to balance environmental protection with industrial needs.

The changes affect the motor industry, particularly manufacturers and recyclers of vehicles. It revises Annex II of the End-of-Life Vehicles Directive, impacting waste management processes for vehicles containing these specific lead components.
