CO2 emissions & fuel consumption: in-service verification (Reg 2019/631)

This regulation establishes the rules and criteria for verifying that passenger cars and light commercial vehicles actually meet their official CO2 emission and fuel consumption targets while in real-world use. This ensures that manufacturers are delivering the environmental performance promised during the initial certification process.

This affects vehicle manufacturers and regulatory bodies. It ensures that the automotive industry remains compliant with EU climate goals by preventing discrepancies between laboratory tests and actual road performance.
