It aims at obtaining the views of individuals and organisations on the relevance and impact of the proposed strategy and legislation. The results will feed into the Commission's decision making on EU regulations for cars, vans and Heavy Duty Vehicles.
The car and van Regulations set CO2 emission standards for new vehicles when they are sold. The Commission intends to propose revisions to these Regulations for car and van emissions for 2020.
