Amendment to Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 (+4 more) on type-approval of motor vehicles with respect to emissions from light passenger and commercial vehicles (Euro 5 and Euro 6) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information, amending Directive 2007/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council, Commission Regulation (EC) No 692/2008 and Commission Regulation (EU) No 1230/2012

This regulation sets the technical requirements for the type-approval of light passenger and commercial vehicles. It focuses on limiting harmful emissions to improve air quality and ensures that independent repairers have access to the necessary vehicle maintenance information.

This affects vehicle manufacturers, automotive repair shops, and consumers. It mandates stricter emission limits (Euro 5 and Euro 6) for new cars and vans sold within the EU.
