De eerste plannen hiervoor werden in het najaar van 2017 aangekondigd en vervolgens min of meer doorgewuifd door de lidstaten en EU-organen. De regeling is in januari 2020 ingegaan (voor nieuwe typegoedkeuringen), is sinds begin 2021 van kracht voor alle nieuwe voertuigen en is bedoeld als testfase tot 2026. Gedurende deze periode zal jaarlijks een rapport verschijnen ….  Read More

The system comes in 2021 and the OBFCM then undergoes a five-year trial. Then it is checked whether the results are satisfactory. And only then would it be possible to discuss additional taxes for inefficient drivers. At present it is not yet technically possible for this data to be supplied to the EU. For now, the only punishment for ….  Read More

From 2021, the EU Commission will be required to monitor real fuel consumption for cars and light commercial vehicles. Automakers then need to record the actual ….  Read More
