Recital 1
(1) The European Strategy for Low- Emission Mobility sets a clear ambition: by mid-century,In order to meet the commitments taken by the Union at the 21st Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the decarbonisation of the transport sector needs to be accelerated and greenhouse gas emissions from transport will need to be at least 60% lower than in 1990 and be firmly on the path towards zero by 2050. Emissions of air pollutants from transport that harm our health need also to be drastically reduced without delayby causing the premature death of more than 400.000 Europeans per year and pollute the environment need also to be drastically reduced without delay. This requires a further reduction of emissions from conventional combustion engines after 2020 as well as the deployment of zero- and low-emission heavy duty vehicles, which will need to be developed, produced and marketed in order to achieve a substantial share of the market in the Union by 2030.

(1a) The deployment of zero-emission heavy duty vehicles should contribute to the solution of major urban mobility problems. While being essential for reducing CO2 emissions from road transport, the promotion of such vehicles by manufacturers is also crucial for the effective reduction of air pollutants and excessive noise levels in cities and urban areas.

(3) This Regulation is part of the third "Europe on the Move" Package, which delivers on the new industrial policy strategy of September 201721 , and is designed to complete the process of enabling the Union to reap the full benefits of the modernisation and decarbonisation of mobility. The aim of the Package is to make European mobility safer and more accessible, European industry more competitive, European jobs more secure, and the mobility system to be cleaner and better adapted to the imperative of tackling climate changesector to be firmly on the path towards zero emission by mid-century in line with the Paris Agreement. This will require the full commitment of the Union, Member States and stakeholders, not least in strengthening efforts to reduce CO2 emissions and air pollution. _________________ 21 Investing in a smart, innovative and sustainable Industry A renewed EU Industrial Policy Strategy, COM(2017) 0479 final

(15) A binding reduction target should be set for 2025 as a relative reduction based on the average CO2 emissions of those heavy-duty vehicles in 2019, reflecting the deployment of readily available cost-effective technologies for conventional vehicles. The 2030 target should be considered aspirational and the final target should be determinedA reduction target should be also be set for 2030, pursuant to a review to be carried out in 2022 as there are more, taking into account the current uncertainties on the uptake of more advanced technologies which are not yet readily available.

(21) Contrary to cars and vans, zero- and low-emission heavy-duty vehicles are not yet available on the market, except for buses. A dedicated mechanism, in the form of super credits, should therefore be introduced to facilitatIn order to guarantee a smooth transition towards zero-emission mobility. This will and to provide incentives for the development and, the deployment and the sale on the Union market of zero- and low- emission heavy-duty vehicles that would complement demand-side instruments, such as the Clean Vehicle Directive 2009/33/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council26 , binding minimum shares of zero- and low-emission vehicles in a manufacturer's fleet of new heavy duty vehicles should be set for 2025 and 2030. _________________ 26 Directive 2009/33/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 April 2009 on the promotion of clean and energy-efficient road transport vehicles as amended by Directive …/…/EU [COM(2017) 653 final] (OJ L 120, 15.5.2009, p. 5).

(24) In designing the incentive mechanism for the deployment of zero- emission heavy-duty vehicles, also smaller lorries, buses and coaches that are not subject to the CO2 emission targets under this Regulation should be included. These vehicles also have significant benefits in terms of helping to address air pollution problems in cities. However, it should be noted by virtue of the significant benefits that zero- emission buses are already on the market and are incentivised through demand-side measures such as public procurement. In order to ensure that the incentives are well balanced between the different types of vehicles, the savings resulting from the zero-emission smaller lorries, buses and coaches should therefore also be subject to a capmodels of such vehicles can generate to help solving the problems caused by air pollution in cities and urban areas.

(27) In case of non-compliance with its specific emission target in any of the years 2025 to 2029, a manufacturer should also have the possibility to acquire a limited emission debt. However, by 2029 manufacturers should clear any remaining emission debt by 2025 and by 2029.

Recital 31
(31) It is essential for achieving the CO2 reductions pursuant to this Regulation that the CO2 emissions of heavy-duty vehicles in use and on road are in conformity with the values determined pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 and its implementing measures. It should therefore be possible for the Commission to take into account, in the calculation of the average specific emissions of a manufacturer, any systematic non-conformity found by type approval authorities with regard to the CO2 emissions of heavy-duty vehicles in use and on road. Third party independent testing of vehicles in use and on road should be introduced.

(33) The effectiveness of the targets set out in this Regulation in reducing CO2 emissions is strongly dependent on the representativeness of the methodology used for determining the CO2 emissions. In line with the Opinion of the Scientific Advice Mechanism (SAM)27 as regards light duty vehicles, it is appropriate also in the case of heavy-duty vehicles to put in place a mechanism to assess the real-world representativeness of the CO2 emissions and energy consumption values determined pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2017/2400. The Commission should have the powers to ensure the public availability of such data and, where necessary, develop the procedures needed for identifying and collecting the data required for such assessments. Where a significant gap is identified between real-world emissions values and those determined in accordance with Regulation (EU) n° 2017/2400, the Commission should be empowered to adapt the 2019 reference emissions as well as the specific emissions targets used for the purpose of compliance with the present Regulation. _________________ 27 High Level Group of Scientific Advisors, Scientific Opinion 1/2016 “Closing the gap between light-duty vehicle real-world CO2 emissions and laboratory testing”

Article 6a Binding minimum share of zero- and low- emission vehicles on manufacturers 1. In order to ensure the smooth transition towards zero-emission mobility in this sector, and to provide incentives for the development and deployment of the Union market and infrastructure for zero- and low-emission heavy-duty vehicles, this Regulation sets a binding minimum share of zero- and low-emission vehicles in a manufacturer’s fleet of new heavy-duty vehicles as follows: (a) 10 % as of 1 January 2025; (b) 35 % as of 1 January 2030. 2.
