The impact assessment provides a qualitative and quantitative analysis to underpin the revision of the roadworthiness package. It explains the analytical methods used and acknowledges the limitations and uncertainties of the available data and findings. While it clearly identifies the problems and their drivers, further quantification of their scale would have benefited the problem description. Furthermore, even though the IA presents a sufficient range of policy options, they are partially cumulative and therefore not entirely distinct alternatives. The IA duly assesses the main economic, social and environmental impacts of the options, but further explanations of certain methodological choices (e.g. the calculation of administrative costs for citizens) would have strengthened the analysis. The justification of the choice of the preferred option could have been more robust, as it scored highest on the coherence criterion, while other options performed better in terms of effectiveness and efficiency. In this context, information on the views of stakeholder groups on the options would have been helpful. Overall, the stakeholder consultation shows some shortcomings. For instance, stakeholders were not consulted on all policy measures – such as citizens on the testing of older vehicles – and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), despite being significantly affected, do not appear to have been sufficiently targeted. Finally, it appears that the proposals are mostly in line with the preferred option of the IA. Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP
