(5) In its 2014 Communication on a Strategy for reducing Heavy-Duty Vehicles’ fuel consumption and CO2 emissions13, the Commission recognised that a prerequisite to introducing such measures is a regulated procedure for the determination of CO2 emissions and fuel consumption. __________________ 13 COM(2014) 285 final. In this respect, the Commission announcement in its 2017 Mobility Package ‘Europe on the move’13a to propose heavy-duty vehicle standards by the first half of 2018 is urgently expected in order to decide on vital new standards. __________________ 13 COM(2014) 285 final. 13a https://ec.europa.eu/transport/modes/road /news/2017-05-31-europe-on-the-move_en

(7) Information on a vehicle’s performance in terms of CO2 emissions and fuel consumption should be made publicly available to enable all vehicle operators to take well-informed purchasing decisions. All vehicle manufacturers will be able to compare their vehicles’ performance with those of other makes. This will increase the incentives for innovation and therefore increase competitiveness. That information will also provide policy makers at Union and Member State level with a sound basis for developing policies to promote the uptake of more energy-efficient vehicles. Making information publicly available will also allow for independent verification testing and the conduct of market research and comparisons, which will increase the reliability of the VECTO tool and spur innovation and competitiveness. It is therefore appropriate that the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption values determined for each new heavy-duty vehicle pursuant to Commission Regulation (EU) […/…]15 [Opoce to include correct reference] are monitored, reported to the Commission and made available to the public. __________________ 15 Commission Regulation (EU) […/…] implementing Regulation (EU) No 595/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the determination of CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of heavy-duty vehicles and amending Directive 2007/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and Commission Regulation (EU) No 582/2011 (OJ L…,..,..).

(8) In order to acquire a complete knowledge on the configuration of the heavy-duty vehicle fleet in the Union, its development over time and potential impact on CO2 emissions, it is appropriate to monitor and report, report and make publicly available data on the registration of all new heavy-duty vehicles and all new trailers, including data on the efficiency of powertrains and engines as well as the relevant bodywork and components.

Recital 10
Recital 10
(10) Technical data essential for determining the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption performance of a vehicle should be publicly available to increase the transparency of the vehicle specifications and the related performance, and to foster competition among manufacturers. Only data that are sensitive on the grounds of personal data protection and fair competition should not be published. However, it is clearly in the public interest that technical data essential for determining and evaluating the performance of vehicles is available. Such data should therefore not be exempt from public access.

(11a) After taking stock of the experience gained with the Vehicle Energy Consumption calculation Tool (VECTO) and together with a proposal for CO2 standards in HDVs early 2018, the Commission should come forwards with legislative proposals for real driving emissions (RDE) tests for heavy-duty vehicles.
