Division Explanatory note:F1

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

The OBD thresholds set out in the table are subject to a review to be conducted by the Commission by 1 September 2014 . Where the thresholds appear to be not technically feasible, their values or the mandatory date of application are to be amended accordingly, considering the effects of other new requirements and tests that will be introduced for Euro 6 vehicles. Where the review shows an environmental need as well as technical feasibility and a net monetised benefit, more stringent values need to be adopted and OBD threshold limits for particle numbers or, where applicable, other regulated pollutants introduced. In doing so, appropriate lead time for introducing the technical developments has to be given to the industry.
