Environment related objective
To protect the environment make amendments to national approval schemes for Fuel Consumption and CO2 emissions information
Measure description Coverage of the measure
The draft regulations make amendments to national approval schemes for Small-series type approval and Individual approval, which were set up in 2009 as foreseen under Article 23 and 24 of Directive 2007/46/EC on road vehicle approval. The national approval schemes offer manufacturers who sell low volumes of vehicles and sell them only into the UK, an alternative to obtaining European Whole Vehicle Type Approval (ECWVTA) . The regulations include provisions for accepting national approvals from other member states, in line with Articles 23-6, 23-7 and 24-6 of the Directive which specify the Mutual Recognition procedures which must be followed. The technical standards for the national approval schemes have been updated to cover the latest EU regulations on Emissions and Safety, and are closely based on the requirements in the relevant EC Directives.

In addition we are proposing an amendment to passenger car fuel consumption regulations, in order to implement Commission Recommendation of 31.5.2017 on the use of fuel consumption and CO2 emission values type-approved and measured in accordance with the World Harmonised Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP) when making information available for consumers pursuant to Directive 1999/94/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council around the introduction of WLTP testing.
