The European emission standards are vehicle emission standards for pollution from the use of new land surface vehicles sold in the European Union and European Economic Area member states and the United Kingdom, and ships in EU waters.[1][2] The standards are defined in a series of European Union directives staging the progressive introduction of increasingly stringent standards.
Euro 7, agreed in 2024 and due to come into force in 2026,[3][4] includes non-exhaust emissions such as particulates from tyres and brakes.[5][6][7][8] Until 2030 fossil fuelled vehicles are allowed to have dirtier brakes than electric vehicles.[9]: 5
