So with Euro7 in 2025 there are requirements on brake and tyre emissions.
I’m all for less dust from the brakes but usually that means they are a harder compound and therefore the disc wears at a higher rate.
Hopefully this doesn’t mean a reduction in brake feel and efficiency but it does appear to mean you couldn’t replace the Euro7 brakes with aftermarket ones anymore.
Same goes for tyres - great if the tyres last longer but surely a harder compound means less ultimate grip.
It will be interesting to see a quality review of a Euro7 performance car.
I’m assuming all this has come about due to the - ooh, aren’t electric cars so clean with emissions - oh hang on, forgot about brake dust and tyre wear from the electric traffic light warriors.
Will be interesting to see how this pans out.

Green brakes anyone?
They don't seem to care about the kids mining the lithium for the batteries, either. But I'm sure in time, they'll be trawling deep sea beds for precious metals - no ecological damage there, obviously.
