Is a Euro 5 truck really more polluting than a Euro 6 truck? Are the emissions from a Euro 5 truck really harmful to the environment? What is the difference between a Euro 5 truck and a Euro 6 truck?<\/span><\/p>\n

The European Union has for several years now introduced standards to classify vehicles according to their emissions<\/b>. <\/span><\/p>\n

Euro 2, Euro 5, Euro 6, are now part of the common language of all motorists, but few know exactly what they mean; trucks<\/b> also meet this standard, which is constantly evolving. <\/span><\/p>\n

For example, our fleet<\/a><\/b><\/span> is entirely Euro 5 or Euro 6, and will be entirely Euro 6 by the end of 2020, to be environmentally friendly<\/b>. <\/span> <\/p>\n

The standard that regulates euro 6 trucks<\/span><\/h2>\n

To understand what a truck’s requirements are to fall into the Euro 6 category, it is necessary to look at the Sept. 1, 2014, European legislation<\/b>, which was created to drastically reduce emissions, including from trucks and buses. <\/span><\/p>\n

It is in the text of the law that the emission levels within which vehicles must fall are contained. Compared with the Euro 5 standard, the Euro 6 standard for trucks is particularly stringent: nitrogen oxide emissions are reduced by about 80 percent, while particulate emissions are reduced by 66 percent<\/b>. <\/span><\/p>\n

The law obviously distinguishes between different types of trucks based on weight, and for each category it imposes a cap on emissions. <\/span><\/p>\n

This table<\/a> summarizes the allowed parameters according to vehicle type.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The Euro 6 regulation then has some subclasses: 6a, 6b, 6c and 6d-TEMP and 6d. Each of these corresponds to a new revision of one or more European standards; the latest in a temporal sense is 6d<\/b>, which is mandatory for cars type-approved from January 1, 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n

Theenvironmental impact<\/b> of a Euro 6 truck is significantly less than that of a Euro 5, but this is not the only advantage: maintenance costs, due to technological standards, are also much lower and components more durable. <\/span><\/p>\n

According to various analyses, the TCO <\/b>(Total Cost of Ownership) of a Euro 6 truck is significantly lower than that of a Euro 5, even with a small “flaw,” which is that the introduced anti-pollution devices have their own weight, and thus slightly reduce the carrying capacity.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
