Exempting aerodynamic devices from future HGV type-approval legislation
There is currently a window of opportunity to make changes to the HGV type approval legislation.
Decarbonising the transport sector has been established as a key priority of European Union transport policy. Within this context, the objective of this paper is to assess how the type approval legislation for heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) can be changed to allow for more aerodynamic design without harming road safety. The report also assesses the potential CO2 emissions savings of such a change.
