EU Commission Gives Industry More Leeway On CO2 Emissions

EU Commission Gives Industry More Leeway On CO2 Emissions

Perhaps learning from the mistake it made in severely regulating passenger car powertrains, the EU Commission’s recent CO2 fleet regulation proposal leaves the door open (at least in principle) for internal combustion engines. Deputy Managing Director of the VDMA, Hartmut Rauen, was quoted as saying: “It is right to revise the CO2 standards for heavy-duty vehicles in line with the ‘Fit for 55’ targets. The narrow ban on thinking and combustion engines has now given way to a more open space for technology and innovation.” One option that will now be on the table is the use of eFuels, which are CO2 neutral and can be efficiently distributed using existing fossil fuel infrastructure.

With a 119-inch wheelbase, the 9120 is a long tractor. That was a good thing from the weight balance and ride comfort standpoints, but made for a wide turning circle. This tractor weights more than nine tons before weight are added. It came standard with AWD and an 18-speed partial power shift transmission. This one has already lived a life of hard work but is not done yet. The rear dual radial tires make this a tractor that’s still up to long days in the field with big implements and tough ground. It’s seen here on AGCO Dealer J.L. Wannamacher’s lot in Ottoville, Ohio.
