"Mr President, I would like to congratulate Mr Sacconi on the work he has done and the results his work has achieved.
The proposal that we are now examining has two main aims: to reach a limit of 95 grams per kilometre by 2020 through technological improvements in new vehicles, and to achieve an additional reduction by improving other systems or components, such as tyres or air conditioning, and promoting more economical driving styles.
We support the agreement because it is balanced. It helps to make a significant reduction in CO
emissions and preserves the competitiveness of the European car industry.
We are working towards an ambitious agreement for 2020. What we are asking of the car industry is comparable to what we have asked of other production sectors, and now the industry itself needs to draw up its strategy to achieve the targets set.
Europe now produces one-third of all the cars manufactured worldwide. If we want to retain this privileged position, we must ensure that our cars are the cleanest and the safest of all. We will therefore have to invest in innovation and in promoting the renewal of our vehicle fleet."@en1
