(3) In order to facilitate the introduction of natural gas vehicles the current total hydrocarbons (THC) emission limit should be increased and the effect of methane emissions should be taken into account and expressed as a CO2 equivalent for regulatory and consumer information purposes.

(4) Modern diesel vehicles emit high and increasing amounts of NO2 as a share of the total NOx emissions which were not anticipated when Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 was adopted. Most air quality problems in affected urban areas appear to be related to direct NO2 emissions. On the other hand, diesel vehicles are responsible for the majority of particulate matter emissions from road traffic. Therefore, an appropriate emission limit should be introduced.

Recital 5
(5) The current emission limits for CO and total hydrocarbons (THC) after a cold start at low temperature have been carried over from Euro 3 requirements set out in Directive 98/69/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council4, which appear to be outdated in the light of existing vehicle technology and air quality needsthe requisite optimal air quality, which will not endanger public health. In addition, air quality problems and results of vehicle emission measurements suggest the need to introduce an appropriate limit for NOx/NO2 emissions. Therefore, revised emission limits, including for modern diesel vehicles, should be introduced pursuant to Article 14(5) of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007. __________________ 4 Directive 98/69/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 October 1998 relating to measures to be taken against air pollution by emissions from motor vehicles and amending Council Directive 70/220/EEC (OJ L 350, 28.12.1998, p. 1).

(6) The emission limit set for NH3 in Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council5 is a requirement designed to limit the slip of ammonia from NOx after treatment technologies which use a urea reagent for the reduction of NOx. The application of the NH3 limit value should therefore only be applied to those technologies and not to positive ignition engines or, for even stronger reasons, to natural gas-fuelled vehicles. __________________ 5 Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 June 2009 on type-approval of motor vehicles and engines with respect to emissions from heavy duty vehicles (Euro VI) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information and amending Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 and Directive 2007/46/EC and repealing Directives 80/1269/EEC, 2005/55/EC and 2005/78/EC (OJ L 188, 18.7.2009, p. 1).
