Commission Directive 1999/100/EC of 15 December 1999 adapting to technical progress Council Directive 80/1268/EEC relating to the carbon dioxide emissions and the fuel consumption of motor vehicles (Text with EEA relevance)
L 334/36 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 28. 12. 1999 COMMISSION DIRECTIVE 1999/100/EC of 15 December 1999 adapting to technical progress Council Directive 80/1268/EEC relating to the carbon dioxide emissions and the fuel consumption of motor vehicles (Text with EEA relevance) THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, (4) The measures provided for in this Directive are in the Committee for accordance with the opinion of Adaptation to Technical by established Directive 70/156/EEC, Progress Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, Having regard to Council Directive 70/156/EEC of 6 February 1970 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the type-approval of motor vehicles and their trailers (1), as last amended by Directive 98/91/EC of the Euro- pean Parliament and of the Council (2), and in particular Article 13(2) thereof, Having regard to Council Directive 80/1268/EEC of 16 December 1980 relating to the carbon dioxide emissions and the fuel consumption of motor vehicles (3), as last amended by Commission Directive 93/116/EC (4), and in particular Article 3 thereof, Whereas: (1) (2) Directive 80/1268/EEC is one of the separate Directives of the EC type-approval procedure which was estab- lished by Directive 70/156/EEC. Consequently, the provisions laid down in Directive 70/156/EEC relating to vehicle systems, components and separate technical units apply to this Directive. In Directive 98/69/EC of the European Parliament and Council of 13 October 1998 relating to measures to be taken against air pollution from motor vehicles and amending Council Directive 70/220/EEC (5), the type I test cycle for emission measurement was amended by abolishing the initial 40 seconds of engine idle time. It is necessary to align the test cycle for the measurement of CO2 emissions and fuel consumption in Directive 80/ 1268/EEC accordingly. (3) With a view to the monitoring of CO2 emissions in the framework of the Community strategy to reduce CO2 emissions of passenger cars, it is appropriate to intro- duce into Directive 80/1268/EEC new technical require- ments regarding the measurement of CO emissions and fuel consumption for the EC type-approval of gas-fuelled vehicles (LPG and NG). In this respect, it is appropriate to follow the technical requirements adopted by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe in its Regulation No 101 (6). 2 HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE: Article 1 Annexes amended in accordance with the Annex to this Directive. to Directive 80/1268/EEC are hereby I and II Article 2 1.
