"We must aim to reduce the level of CO emissions as much as possible, and therefore it is very important to set an emissions target for vehicles given their negative impact on the environment and human health. However, the proposal put forward in the resolution to raise the emissions target for new light commercial vehicles, setting the same target that is applied to cars, is primarily being debated due to the measures envisaged to achieve this objective and their impact on van manufacturers. The proposal to install speed limiters in cars would have a negative impact on businesses and would reduce their competitiveness in the international market. Furthermore, van manufacturers would have to increase their prices, given the costs endured. Therefore, before taking such important decisions, we should carry out extensive scientific research, proving that the introduction of speed limiters would significantly reduce the level of CO emissions. We must also create a clear and adequate credit mechanism and outline promotional initiatives. I believe that in order to increase the competitiveness of European car manufacturers, greater attention should be paid to stimulus measures."@en1
