The Norwegian Authorities are evaluating the consequences of a reduction of permissible noise emission levels for motor vehicles as part of a strategy to reduce the annoyance of road traffic noise. This report discusses the technical and economical consequences of noise limits of 75/76 dB(A) for passenger cars and 80 dB(A) for heavy vehicles (1985-objectives). Noise control measures on the different vehicle noise sources and their effects on fuel economy, weight, cost, maintenance etc. are evaluated. The effect of stricter limits on the present vehicle market in Norway is also discussed.
