Light-duty motor vehicles

Informe técnico para el establecimiento del estándar de eficiencia energética de vehículos motorizados livianos (Technical Report for establishing the energy efficiency standard for light-duty motor vehicles) (57 pages, in Spanish)

Law No. 21.305 on energy efficiency, published on 13 February 2021, provides, inter alia, for the establishment of energy efficiency standards for light-, medium- and heavy-duty vehicles (Article 7). The Ministry of Energy must therefore set standards which will consist of energy efficiency targets, in kilometres per litre of gasoline equivalent, in average terms for all individual approval certificates issued or certificates of compliance with Supreme Decree No. 55 of 1994 of the Ministry of Transport and Telecommunications, or that replacing it, as appropriate.
