S ão Paulo - Conama, the National Environment Council of Brazil, published the resolution 490, which regulates the P8 phase of Proconve, Program for Air Pollution Control of Automotive Vehicles. Equivalent to Euro 6, the new emission laws for trucks and buses will begin to be applied in January 2022, for new approvals, and in January 2023, for all models produced by the industry. In other words: from January 2022, every new project entering the production line should comply with Euro 6 emission standards. The following year, all trucks and buses produced in Brazil should have technologies that regulate their emissions to the new indexes. According to a statement published on the MMA website (Ministry of Environment) Brazil could eliminate 99% of the pollutant emissions, helping reduce the risks of diseases. The P8 phase also includes items such as deterioration factors and the emissions monitoring according to the vehicle’s life cycle.
