What is Euro 7? (2024)

The Euro 7 regulations have undergone some dramatic changes since they were first proposed in 2022. Autovista24 special content editor Phil Curry explains the current iteration of the rules, how they benefit vehicle manufacturers, and how the rules on particulate matter extend beyond the tailpipe.

They really need to stop enshrining things in to law without consent of the people.

[@seantomo]

Yes they should. But they dont really care about the people.

[@hughM9]

Governments make laws. That’s what happens

Euro 8, the air coming out of the exhaust, must be cleaner than the air going into the engine.

[@orionbetelgeuse1937]

in some parts of the world that is already true even for euro 5

Does it mean tyres and brakes will last much longer. It seems that particulates are directly related to wear rate.

All caravaners should be very concerned, for a lot of us this will be the end. The enviro zealots will make it impossible to own a vehicle, thus forfilling their dream no cars.

Most EV's and Hybrids cannot tow all but a very light load. The Toyota Hybrids kick in at low speeds which would mean weight of the car and trailer would be on the battery. People need to stand together, join up with like minded people across Europe and reject current governments, their crazy ideas and vicious attacks of ordinary decent people.

@@kevinclarke9689 But isnt EU commission voted by committee, not by the people? This is ironic because many people actually against BEV so much they switch to hybrids. Yet the real enemy is the euro 7 standards. Euro 7 engines means the cost of most ICE cars will be as expensive as a luxury car

@@Cutie-wk2xxHence the reason why a lot of European car makers jumped to EV production

@@hughM9 Thats what I mean. The reality is many people in western countries says that hybrids are good because theyre not the directly affected by hybrids and ICE vehicles. And Im not posting about global warming and climate change. I mean affected by these vehicles. Mainly Africa and Asia countries. Im from Asia and even to us hybrids are junk.
In reality hybrids are outdated surplus engines euro 2 to euro 4 compliant with a small battery. Thats it. Sure hybrids in western nations sold well but even with that it have surplus. Instead of selling those surplus in Africa and Asia countries like us, legacy auto makers take down the whole car including the ICE engine and sold that engine to us in high markup price.

@@hughM9 So my comment deleted again. And I think dozens more thats deleted on this thread alone. BTW it also affects the thumbs up voting system. The reason you only have 7 upvotes despite on one of the top comments here

The jackboot of net zero ..wef inspired shite..
Car manufacturers throwing them selves over the cliff.

Euro 7 is an wholly unnecessary set of regulations designed to force most cars off the road under the desguise of health and safey. We know what they are up to, why do meekly comply it is time to make your objections known forcibly.

[@tilly0191]

Thought we'd left the eu 🤔

[@hughM9]

The UK has, but the truth is that the UK market alone isn’t big enough for manufacturers to make separate vehicles. In addition the UK government has committed to net zero on emissions, which means it’s effectively on the same path as the EU

A profound statement. What is ?
