A large majority of people support stronger EU air pollution rules for carmakers to make vehicles as clean as possible, a newshows. More than three-quarters of those polled said, when asked, that manufacturers should be legally obliged to reduce emissions from new cars as much as technically feasible. YouGov, commissioned by Transport & Environment , surveyed more than 8,000 people in seven EU countries: Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Poland, Romania and Czechia.
There is also broad support for carmakers being required to reduce vehicle emissions at all times and not just under ideal driving conditions. More than three-quarters of people surveyed agree that cars should meet minimum legal pollution limits no matter how, when and where they are driven.Current pollution limits do not apply on short city trips — when cars stop and start more frequently — or when accelerating fast, despite the engines emitting more.
