There are means available to further lower exhaust and evaporative emissions from passenger cars and light-duty trucks. Emission requirements may consequently be made more stringent. This could be done by relating to developments in the USA. More stringent requirements are decided in California. The rest of USA is expected to do the same. Road vehicles contribute to a large extent to the air pollution of for example, nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide. Even a large fraction of carbon dioxide emissions comes from traffic. More stringent requirements along the lines presented entail lower nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons emissions. The proposal by the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency upon new exhaust and evaporative emission requirements is presented along with an overview of the consequences for the environment, cost, trade policy, the integration in Western Europe etc. Information is supplied upon emission control technology and rules and regulations. The proposal on emission requirements for light vehicles is one of several in the traffic-area put forward by the Agency. All are summarized in Air-90 action program against air pollution and acidification.
