Vans and CO2

T&E believes the proposal should contain the following three key points:

1. The short-term target should be set at 160 g/km by 2015.

2. The 2020 target should be set at 125 g/km. This represents a 38% reduction based on 2007 levels, and matches in ambition the 40% reduction required for cars to achieve 95 g CO₂/km by 2020.

3. Vans should be equipped with speed limiters set at 100 km/h. This would reduce on-road CO₂ emissions by a further 8%.
