Posted May 11, 2023 at 11:05 am



The Euro VI standard that seeks to reduce emissions of polluting gases or also called nitrogen oxides (NOx), establishing 80 mg/km of NOx for diesel engines and 60 mg/km of NOx for gasoline engines. In Colombia through law 1972 of 2019, informs that "since January 1, 2023, land mobile sources with diesel cycle engine that are manufactured, assembled or imported to the country, with national operation range, will have to comply with the maximum permissible limits of emission of air pollutants corresponding to Euro VI technologies, However, unions such as FEDETRANSCARGA and Camioneros de Colombia mention that Colombia does not have the infrastructure for the circulation of a modern fleet that runs on gas and even less on electricity, in addition to the time required to fill the fuel completely in a tractor-trailer with gas vs. with common fuel.
