(8) In order to achieve a reduction in net greenhouse gas emissions of at least 55 % by 2030 compared to 1990, it is necessary to strengthen the reduction requirements set out in Regulation (EU) 2019/631 of the European Parliament and of the Council25 for both passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. A clear pathway also needs to be set for further reductions beyond 2030 to contribute to achieving the climate neutrality objective by 2050. Without ambitious action on greenhouse gas emission reductions in road transport, higher emission reductions wconsult manufacturers to assess technical developments and supply constraints, as well as the market barriers they may encounter as a result of fluctuations in the automotive market and the general economic conditions. Based on the feedback provided by the vehicle manufacturers, the same consultative approach should be needadopted in other sectors, including sectors where decarbonisation is more challenging. _________________ 25Regulation (EU) 2019/631 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2019 setting CO2 emission performance standards for new passenger cars and for new light commercial vehicles, and repealing Regulations (EC) No 443/2009 and (EU) No 510/2011 (OJ L 111, 25.4.2019, p. 13).

(10) Against that background, new strengthened CO2 emission reduction targets should be set for both new passenger cars and new light commercial vehicles for the period 2030 onwards. Those targets should be set at a level that willthe Commission should adapt its decarbonisation strategy for the transport sector to take account of the reality of the constraints encountered by manufacturers; this would deliver a strong signal to accelerate the uptake of zero- emission vehicles on the Union market and to stimulate innovation in zero-emission technologies in a cost- efficient way.

Recital 19
(19) The values used for the calculation of the specific emission targets and the average specific emissions of a manufacturer are based on data recorded in the type approval documentation and in the certificates of conformity of the vehicles concerned. It is essential for ensuring the effectiveness of the CO2 emission standards that the data used for these purposes is correct. If nevertheless errors are identified in the data, it may not be possible, based on the type approval legislation to correct the type approval documentation or the certificates of conformity that have already been issued, where the data refers to type approvals that have ceased to be valid. In such situations, the Commission should have the power to request that the relevant type approval authorities, or where applicable, manufacturers, issue a statement of correction on the basis of which the values used for determining manufacturers’ performance in meeting their targets can be correctedHowever, manufacturers cannot be held liable in so far as the data recorded in the type approval documentation and certifications of conformity is derived from factory tests, i.e. was collected prior to the registration and entry into service of the vehicles concerned, and thus not under real conditions of use.

Recital 21
Recital 21
(21) In view of the increased overall greenhouse gas emissions reduction objectives and to avoid potential market distorting effects, the reduction requirements for all manufacturers present in the Union market should be aligned, except for those responsible for less than 1 000 new vehicles registered in a calendar year. Consequently, the possibility for manufacturers responsible for between 1 000 and 10 000 passenger cars or between 1 000 and 22 000 light commercial vehicles newly registered in a calendar year to apply for a derogation from their specific emission targets should cease fromontinue after 2030 onwards.
