This new Regulation amends Regulation (EU) 2018/858 of the European Parliament and of the Council and repeals Regulations (EC) No 715/2007 and (EC) No 595/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council, Commission Regulation (EU) No 582/2011, Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/1151, Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/2400 and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/1362.
Euro 7 establishes common technical requirements and administrative provisions for the emission type-approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles, systems, components, and separate technical units, with regard to their CO₂ and pollutant emissions, fuel and electric energy consumption and battery durability.
Furthermore, the regulation lays down rules for the emission type-approval, conformity of production, in-service conformity, market surveillance of on-board monitoring systems, durability of pollution control systems and traction batteries, as well as security provisions to limit tampering and cybersecurity measures, and rules for the accurate determination of CO₂ emissions, electric range, fuel, and electric energy consumption and energy efficiency.
