New EU regulations impose stricter limits on particulate emissions from electric vehicles compared to internal combustion engine vehicles. The Euro 7 standard, effective from November 2026, will require electric vehicles to adhere to lower particulate emission limits due to their heavier weight and associated wear. This change reflects the recognition that electric vehicles, while not emitting exhaust gases, still contribute to pollution through tire and brake wear. As a result, they will no longer be classified as zero-emission vehicles.
