The European Commission proposes to amend the draft EVE mandate in order to avoid overlap in the scope of work with other informal working groups addressing electric vehicle environmental issues. In addition, the EC proposes to extend the mandate duration given its understanding of the complexity, tasks and decision processes involved in meeting its objectives.

EC proposal to delete work on vehicle range and energy consumption testing and a method of stating energy consumption from the scope of the EVE group mandate (since these subjects are being pursued by other GRPE informal groups) and to extend the mandate duration.

Proposal to replace Directive 97/68/EC with an updated and more appropriate regulation, including expansion of the scope to include additional engine categories and to adapt the emission stages last amended in 2004 to the current state of technology. Furthermore, the regulation would address mismatches between emission limits and certain engine categories.
