It refers to the exhuast emission of vehicles. Euro 4 is the 'cleanest' and does the least harm to the environment whereas euro 1 is most harmful to the environment. As far as I know, most of the cars introduced in about the last 5 years complys with euro 4 standard. For commercial vehicles, most of the vehicles registered before 2007 were of euro 1, 2 and 3 standard. After that it was euro 4 and it was this reason that caused CAT C COE to plunge to $1 in early 2007.

i tot the last 5 yrs is Euro 3 standard?

Most of the petrol cars introduced today are already euro 5 standard, especially continental cars. In europe, manufacturers have to comply with the euro 5 laws implemented by their government. From what I know, most of the benz like E class comply with euro 5 standard but I am not very sure with japanese car.

 

Anyway, I am very sure that cars registered after Jan 2007 are euro 4 vehicles as gahment introduced a law which required dealers to bring in only euro 4 vehicles.

The higher standard,the lower the C.O. output[cleaner].

If not wrong, SG required standard for petrol car is still Euro 2. Only diesel requires Euro 4.
