The proposed revisions to the preferred option canvassed in the Consultation Impact Analysis are: - Revised headline targets for Type 2 (light commercial) vehicles (210g/km NEDC in 2025, reducing gradually each year to 110g/km NEDC in 2029).- Changes to the definition of a Type 2 vehicle, to include off-road passenger (MC category) vehicles with a body on frame chassis and a rated towing capacity over 3,000kg.- The proposed CO2 emissions targets for 2025 will only apply to vehicles supplied between 1 July 2025 and 31 December 2025.The Bill also contains a range of secondary obligations that vehicle suppliers must comply with working in tandem with the Road Vehicle Standards Act 2018 (RVSA) to establish a streamlined framework for suppliers bringing vehicles to Australia. The Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications and the Arts (the department) is already the regulator for the RVSA, and the Bill adapts these powers to enforce the NVES. The Bill also enables the creation of rules to support the regulatory framework.
