Emission regulations and fuel quality requirements will tighten as Europe enters the 1990s. The stiffer emission regulations, particularly in those nations in the European Economic Community (EEC), will more closely resemble those already in effect in the U.S. and Japan. Nations not in the EEC, particularly Austria, Switzerland, Norway, Sweden, and Finland, are also formulating rules that adopt the 1983 U.S. emission standards. Rules and tax incentives have also been introduced to encourage the use of unleaded gasoline in EEC member countries. Details of some of the emission rules for both EEC member and non-member countries are discussed.
