CO2 Targets for New Lorries (Regulation)

In cep’s view, CO₂ targets for lorries do not guarantee that CO₂ emissions caused by road haulage will be reduced to the desired degree. EU-wide CO₂ targets are also based on insufficient data and, in view of the long product cycles applicable to lorries, are too strict. In addition, the financial penalties are disproportionately high and therefore in breach of EU law.
