(12) Non-exhaust emissions consist of particles emitted by tyres and brakes of vehicles. Emissions from tyres is estimated to be the largest source of microplastics to the environment. As shown in the Impact Assessment, it is expected that by 2050, non-exhaust emissions will constitute up to 90% of all particles emitted by road transport, because exhaust particles will diminish due to vehicle electrification. Those non-exhaust emissions should therefore be measured and limited. The Commission should prepare a report on tyre abrasion by the end of 2024 to review the measurement methods and state-of-the- art in order to propose tyre abrasion limitsmeasurement methods and state-of-the-art in order to propose tyre abrasion limits will need to be examined on the basis of recommendations, analysis reports and real-condition tests offered by tyre manufacturers, in order to make sure that the abrasion limits set in the Commission’s report are realistic and attainable.

(13) Regulation (EU) 2019/2144 of the European Parliament and of the Council46 regulates gear shift indicators (GSI), whose main purpose is to minimise fuel consumption of a vehicle when a driver follows its indications. However, the pollutant emission requirements in real use, including when following the GSI, should be addressed in this Regulation so as to not stigmatise drivers as a result of their driving style, the type of engine or gear box in their vehicle, or the age of the vehicle. __________________ 46 Regulation (EU) 2019/2144 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 November 2019 on type-approval requirements for motor vehicles and their trailers, and systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles, as regards their general safety and the protection of vehicle occupants and vulnerable road users, amending Regulation (EU) 2018/858 of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Regulations (EC) No 78/2009, (EC) No 79/2009 and (EC) No 661/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Commission Regulations (EC) No 631/2009, (EU) No 406/2010, (EU) No 672/2010, (EU) No 1003/2010, (EU) No 1005/2010, (EU) No 1008/2010, (EU) No 1009/2010, (EU) No 19/2011, (EU) No 109/2011, (EU) No 458/2011, (EU) No 65/2012, (EU) No 130/2012, (EU) No 347/2012, (EU) No 351/2012, (EU) No 1230/2012 and (EU) 2015/166 (OJ L 325, 16.12.2019, p. 1).

(16) Sensors installed on vehicles are already used today to detect anomalies on emissions and trigger related repairs through the on-board diagnostic (OBD) system. The OBD system currently in use, however, does not detect accurately or timely the malfunctions and neither does it sufficiently and timely force repairs. As a result, it is possible that vehicles emit much more than they are allowed to do. The sensors used up to now for OBD can also be used to monitor and control the emission behaviour of the vehicles on a continuous basis via an on-board monitoring (OBM) system. The OBM will also warn the user to perform repairs of the engine or the pollution control systems when these are needed. It is therefore appropriate to require that such a system is installed and to regulate its technical requirements. Given the semiconductor supply challenges and the current crisis linked to inflation and rising production costs in industry, it is therefore appropriate to consult stakeholders in the automotive sector on the additional costs that such a system could create for drivers, before considering making it obligatory.

(17) Manufacturers may opt to produce vehicles which comply with lower emission limits or with better battery durability than what is required in this Regulation, or which include advanced options including geofencing and adaptive controls. Consumers and national authorities should be able to identify such vehicles through appropriate documentation. An environmental vehicle passport (EVP) should therefore be made available.

(18) In case the Commission makes a proposal for registering after 2035 new light-duty vehicles running exclusively on CO2 neutral fuels outside the scope of the CO2 fleet standards, and in conformity with Union law and the Union’s climate neutrality objective, this Regulation will need to be amended to include the possibility to type approve such vehicles and set a sufficient transition period for all stakeholders in the automotive sector to get organised and get to grips with the amendments to the regulation.

(25) It is important to grant Member States, national type-approval authorities and economic operators enough time to prepare for the application of the new rules introduced by this Regulation. The date of application should therefore be deferred. While; for light duty vehicles the date of application should be as soon as technically possible, foras well as heavy duty vehicles and trailers the date of application may therefore be further delayed by two years, since the transition to zero-emission vehicles will be longer for heavy duty vehicles.
