Sound Level of Motor Vehicles (Regulation)

Lowering noise limit values creates innovation incentives for vehicle producers to develop quieter vehicles. The proposed reduction targets of a total of three or four decibel in connection with the relatively short adjustment periods of two to five years leads to an increase in vehicle prices. Cars with a high power to mass ratio index should not be granted preferential treatment, since noise impact is not dependent on this ratio. The material core provisions of the legal act must not be amended by the Commission through delegated acts since they constitute essential provisions.
