COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2023/2502

of 7 September 2023

amending Regulation (EU) 2019/631 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the adjustment of the mass values of new passenger cars and new light commercial vehicles

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2019/631 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2019 setting CO2 emission performance standards for new passenger cars and for new light commercial vehicles, and repealing Regulations (EC) No 443/2009 and (EU) No 510/2011 (1), and in particular Article 14(2) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

In accordance with Regulation (EU) 2019/631, the Union fleet-wide average mass in running order used for the purpose of calculating the specific emission targets of carbon dioxide (CO2) for each manufacturer of new light commercial vehicles (the M0 value) is to be adjusted regularly until 2024 to take into account changes in the average mass of the new light commercial vehicles registered in the Union.

(2)

Based on the data in Annexes I to IV to Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/973 (2), Annexes I and II to Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2022/2087 (3) and Annexes I to III to Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/1623 (4), the average mass in running order of new light commercial vehicles registered in the calendar years 2019, 2020 and 2021, weighted according to the number of new registrations in each of those years, was 1 875,07 kg. The M0 value for the calendar year 2024 referred to in Part B, point 4, of Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2019/631 should therefore be equal to that value.

(3)

In accordance with Regulation (EU) 2019/631, as of 2025, the average test mass of all new passenger cars and new light commercial vehicles (the TM0 values) are to be used for the purpose of calculating the specific emissions reference targets for each manufacturer of new passenger cars and each manufacturer of light commercial vehicles. The TM0 values to be used for the calculation are to be regularly adjusted to the respective average test mass of all new registered passenger cars and new registered light commercial vehicles.

(4)

The indicative TM0 values for 2025 should be calculated as the respective average test mass of all new passenger cars and all new light commercial vehicles registered in the calendar year 2021. Based on the data in Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/1623, the average test mass of all new passenger cars registered in the calendar year 2021 was 1 609,6 kg, and the average test mass of all new light commercial vehicles registered in the calendar year 2021 was 2 163,0 kg. The indicative TM0 values for the calendar year 2025 referred to in Part A, point 6.2.1, and Part B, point 6.2.1, of Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2019/631, should therefore be equal to those values.

(5)

Regulation (EU) 2019/631 should therefore be amended accordingly,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2019/631 is amended as follows:

(1)

in Part A, point 6.2.1, the entry TM0 is replaced by the following:

‘TM0 is 1 609,6 kg in 2025 and the value in kilograms (kg) determined in accordance with Article 14(1), point (d), in the other calendar years.’;

(2)

in Part B, point 4, the entry M0 is replaced by the following:

‘M0 is 1 766,4 in 2020, 1 825,23 in 2021, 2022 and 2023, and 1 875,07 in 2024’;

(3)

in Part B, point 6.2.1, the entry TM0 is replaced by the following:

‘TM0 is 2 163,0 kg in 2025 and the value in kilograms (kg) determined in accordance with Article 14(1), point (d), in the other calendar years.’.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
