Consumers must be able to trust data provided to inform their purchasing decisions. That is why the government pushed in Europe for the recently agreed changes to the way emissions are measured.

I am pleased that real driving emissions will be measured from 2017 but, in the meantime, officials are retesting the emission performance of the most popular vehicles in Great Britain. We will publish a report of this work in spring 2016.
