CO2 Limits on Cars and Light Commercial Vehicles (Regulation)

Additionally, stricter CO₂ limits do not give any guarantee that CO₂ emissions will be reduced to the desired degree. In order to achieve CO ₂ reduction targets in road transport, reliably and efficiently, the EU should incorporate refineries and fuel importers into an emissions trading system. In principle, a system of incentives for low-emission vehicles is preferable to a quota for electric vehicles, but rather than de facto focussing support on battery-powered vehicles, a genuinely technology-neutral approach should be taken.
