Iran to stop licensing Euro 3 trucks

Tehran, Iran, January 20

By Mehdi Sepahvand –- Trend:

The Iranian police will stop licensing trucks with Euro 3 and lower emission standards on March 21, according to Deputy Chief of Police Musa Amiri.

Only Euro 4 and higher trucks will receive a license number, he told the IRIB January 20.

Most cars and trucks used in Iran are of Euro 2 and lower emission standards.

Iran has planned to stop producing non-euro standard gasoline and gas oil by March 2021.

In June 2016, Deputy Oil Minister and CEO of the National Iranian Oil Refining and Distribution Company (NIORDC) Abbas Kazemi told Trend that of the 62 million liters per day (mlpd) of domestically produced gasoline, 29 mlpd meets the Euro-4 standard.

“Our largest developing project is the Persian Gulf Star which is operated privately. It is meant to produce 36 mlpd of Euro-4 gasoline as well as 13 mlpd of Euro-4 gas oil,” the deputy minister told Trend.
