Amendments to EU Regulation on Heavy Vehicle CO2 Emissions Determination Published
On February 20, 2025, the European Commission published an EU Amending Regulation, (EU) 2025/258, which introduces amendments to the EU Regulation on the determination of the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of medium and heavy trucks and heavy buses; (EU) 2017/2400. The amendments introduced by (EU) 2025/258 are predominantly to cover new technologies that are being developed and deployed to improve the CO2 emissions performance and fuel consumption of heavy duty vehicles, such as hydrogen fuelled vehicles, vehicles fitted with high efficiency 'wheel ends', vehicles equipped with multiple drivetrains which are capable of operating independently and vehicles which are capable of recharging whilst they are in motion.

Updated Chinese Standard on the Fuel Consumption Limits for Heavy Duty Vehicles Published
The Chinese government have recently published an updated version of the Chinese Standard on the maximum permissible fuel consumption limits for heavy duty vehicles, GB 30510-2024, which specifies fuel consumption limits for all types of heavy duty vehicle that are around 10% lower than the limits specified in the previous version of this Standard. In addition to these reduced fuel consumption limits, the updated standard also introduces criteria to define the variations in vehicle specification that are permitted within a vehicle type and a formula for converting fuel consumption values, in L/100km, into CO2 emissions values, in g/km.
