Amendment 105 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 7 a (new)
Paragraph 7 a (new)

Amendment 118 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 8
Paragraph 8
8. Considers that clearer price signals toacross all transport modes reflecting better the polluter-pays and user- pays principles are essential in ensuring fairness and a level-playing field for different transport modes in Europe;
Amendment 120 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 8 a (new)
Paragraph 8 a (new)
8a. Each transport mode should cover its marginal costs, both for infrastructure wear and tear (“user pays”) and for external costs, e.g. for air pollution and noise (“polluter pays”). Applying the user-pays and polluter principles EU-wide will help address the current charging discrepancy between the transport modes;
Amendment 167 #

Amendment 171 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 12
Paragraph 12
12. Considers that autonomous vehicles canould be an important asset in improving the efficiency of transport; insists, however, that autonomous vehicles should be electric, shared, and include smart measures to mitigate increasing ustechnologically neutral and sustainable;
Amendment 186 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 13 a (new)
Paragraph 13 a (new)

Stresses the importance of investing in optimal hinterland connections in order to decrease the ecological footprint of hinterland transport by encouraging the use of multimodal connections, sustainable rail transport, inland shipping, real time transport data and IT applications along the corridors in the Trans-European Transport Network;
Amendment 189 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 13 a (new)
Paragraph 13 a (new)
13a. The contribution of Intelligent Transport Management System (ITS) to a more environmentally friendly transport system should be taken in consideration within future regulation;
Amendment 217 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 15
Paragraph 15
15. Considers that an obligation for fuel suppliers to reduce the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of energy supplied through renewable electricity, sustainable advanced biofuels or synthetic fuels would be the most effective approach for reducing the climate impact of road transport and stress that a result based strategy combining all alternative energy sources and technologies is essential in order to facilitate the transition to zero-emissions transport;
Amendment 219 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 15
Paragraph 15
15. Considers that an obligation for fuel suppliers to reduce the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of energy supplied through renewable electricity, hydrogen, sustainable conventional and advanced biofuels or, synthetic fuels or other low carbon fuels (e.g. CNG, LNG) would be the most effective approach for reducing the climate impact of road transport;
Amendment 247 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 17 a (new)
Paragraph 17 a (new)
17a. Encourages the Commission to develop objective criteria for the recognition of advanced biofuels to stimulate innovation and the market uptake;
Amendment 264 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 18
Paragraph 18
18. Urges the Commission and the Member States to limitprioritize European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI), Trans- European Transport network (TEN-T), Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) and Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) financing to initiatives that contribute to climate action and air quality;
Amendment 277 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 18 a (new)
Paragraph 18 a (new)
18a. Stresses that low-emission transport should be supported by research programmes to allow continued investment in green and innovative technology and operational improvements;
Amendment 319 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 21
Paragraph 21
21. Calls for new standards for CO2 emissions from cars and vans to be set for 2025 and 2030 on the basis of a linear trajectory and at a level corresponding to an annual improvement of at least 6-8 %, corresponding to 70 g New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) in 2025 and 50g NEDC in 203030. The new standards should be calculated as a percentage reduction from the 2021 WLTP values. A mid-term review in 2025 needs to be employed to evaluate the state of low-emission vehicles on the market in order to ambitiously adjust the 2030 targets if appropriate;
Amendment 326 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 22
Paragraph 22
22. Insists that the future Union CO2 standards for vehicles should also be measurbe based ion a real-world driving test in order to inform consumers, ensure the accuracy of test procedures and avoid test cycle beatingthe WLTP lab test cycle together with a complementary on-road test allowing for a 110% non-conformity threshold of the measured lab results;
Amendment 330 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 23
Paragraph 23
23. Reiterates its call for a revision of car labelling to improve consumer information and for the public procurement rules to incentivise clean vehicles; stresses that car labelling should be based on a comparative CO2 footprintscheme derived from the WLTP lab test and the complementary on- road test to ensure realistic information for consumers;
Amendment 345 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 24
Paragraph 24
24. Calls for the Commission to introduce a minimumurgently set ambitious targets for the share of electric vehicles for all manufacturers of at least 25 % for 2025market uptake of those vehicles that have been proven through Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies to have the lowest climate and environmental impact;
Amendment 350 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 24 a (new)
Paragraph 24 a (new)
24a. Emphasises the benefits for the European economy of an early transition to those vehicles that the LCA findings have found to have the lowest climate impact. This transition will ensure European carmakers remain competitive on the global stage ensuring existing jobs and while creating new ones;
Amendment 359 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 25
Paragraph 25
25. Expects the Commission to come forward with a proposal for CO2 standards for heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs) for 2025 without further delay and based on a solid basis determined by VECTO tool, as well as for CO2 certification to allow for differentiation in road-user charging;
Amendment 361 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 25
Paragraph 25
25. Expects the Commission to come forward with a proposal for CO2 standards for heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs) for 2025 without further delaybased on the implementation of the VECTO tool no later than 2020 , as well as for CO2 certification to allow for differentiation in road-user charging;

Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 28 a (new)
Paragraph 28 a (new)
28a. Urges Member States to speed up the implementation of the Single European Sky, as current fragmentation are causing longer flight times, delays, extra fuel burn and great CO2 emissions;
Amendment 455 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 31
Paragraph 31
31. Stresses that, all modes of transport have to contribute to the reduction of CO2 emissions in accordance with the UNFCCC Paris Agreement, and that the adoption of clear targets to reduce international maritime emissions through the IMO is a matter of great priority, and in the absence of an ambitious international agreement on an emissions reduction objective for the shipping sector and IMO measures to mitigate emissions in the international maritime sector, the Un by 2023, the Commission should consider incorporateing international shipping into the Emissions Trading System from 2023; ;
