The Australian Government Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications and the Arts, is consulting on a ‘New Vehicle Efficiency Standard’ for light passenger and commercial vehicles supplied by manufacturers to Australia from 2025.

The consultation Impact Analysis evaluates the costs and benefits of three possible approaches with varying levels of stringency.This notification is to provide early notice of this upcoming measure and provide the opportunity for Members to make comments on the consultation Impact Analysis. An addendum notification will be issued in the near future to provide further detail on the proposed legislation to implement this measure, once it is introduced in the Australian Parliament. A full comment period will be provided with this future notification and there will be the opportunity for those comments to be taken into consideration in finalisation of the measure.
