Recital 9
(9) The strengthened CO2 emission reduction requirements should incentivise an increasing share of zero- and low- emission vehicles being deployed on the Union market whilst providing benefits to consumers and citizens in terms of air quality and energy savings, as well as ensuring that innovation in the automotive value chain can be maintained. Within the global context, also the EU automotive chain must be a leading actor in the on- going transition towards zero-emission mobility. The strengthened CO2 emission reduction standards are technology neutral in reaching the fleet-wide targets that they set. Different technologies are and remain available to reach the zero-emission fleet wide target. Zero-emission vehicles currently include battery electric vehicles, fuel-cell and other hydrogen powered vehicles, and technological innovations are continuing. Zero and low-emission vehicles, which also include well performing plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, can continue to play a role in the transition pathway.

(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 will deliver a strong signal to accelerate the uptake of zero- and low-emission vehicles on the Union market and to stimulate innovation in zero- and low-emission technologies in a cost- efficient way.

Recital 11
(11) The targets in the revised CO2 performance standards should be accompanied by a European strategy to address the challenges posed by the scale- up of the manufacturing of zero- and low- emission vehicles and associated technologies, as well as the need for up- and re-skilling of workers in the sector and the economic diversification and reconversion of activities. Where appropriate, financial support should be considered at the level of the EU and Member States to crowd in private investment, including via the European Social Fund Plus, the Just Transition Fund, the Innovation Fund, the Recovery and Resilience Facility and other instruments of the Multiannual Financial Framework and the Next Generation EU, in line with State aid rules. The revised environmental and energy state aid rules will enable Member States to support business to decarbonize their production processes and adopt greener technologies in the context of the New Industrial Strategy.

Recital 14
(14) Manufacturers should be provided with sufficient flexibility in adapting their fleets over time in order to manage the transition towards zero- and low-emission vehicles in a cost-efficient manner, and it is therefore appropriate to maintain the approach of decreasing target levels in five-year step. The approach of decreasing target levels in five-year steps should be therefore perceived as an expression of high political ambitions but not without risk, knowing that passenger cars are produced and designed in at least five-year cycles, and light commercial vehicles even longer. Frequent changes of key requirements may have a significant negative impact on employment and vehicle production costs, in particular for SMEs in the automotive supply chain as they have lower technical potential and a smaller budget for changing their production model, and thus reduce the availability of new vehicles for final consumers.
