Recommendations by AECC, CLEPA, EUROMOT, and OICA for minimum quality attributes of market fuels (i.e. gasoline and diesel) to be introduced “in parallel, and at the same time, to complement the level of motor vehicle and non-road mobile machinery pollutant emission standards that a country or region may be considering to introduce”.

Revised recommendations by AECC, CLEPA, EUROMOT, and OICA, pursuant to discussions during the GRPE-68 session, for minimum quality attributes of market fuels (i.e. gasoline and diesel) to be introduced “in parallel, and at the same time, to complement the level of motor vehicle and non-road mobile machinery pollutant emission standards that a country or region may be considering to introduce”.

Proposal to enable Contracting Parties to continue to issue type approvals for agricultural tractor and non-road mobile machinery engines according to earlier versions of the Regulation provided such engines are destined for sale in countries that apply the earlier versions. In other words, a manufacturer would be able to obtain approvals in its home country based upon previous sets of requirements that may not be those applied within the home country (but are used in other markets).

The objective of this document is to provide recommendations for the minimum quality of market fuels (i.e. gasoline and diesel) that should be introduced concurrently with the corresponding emissions standards. They complement the motor vehicle and NRMM pollutant emission standards that a country or a region may be considering to introduce.
