EURO-III refers to a
pollution control scale used to regulate the emission standards for vehicles in Europe. The
Euro-III norms were introduced in 2000, aimed at reducing harmful emissions such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), and particulate matter (PM) from vehicles. These norms have been adopted by several countries around the world, including India.
Information Booster:
Euro standards are progressively stricter environmental regulations for vehicle emissions, with
Euro-I being the earliest, followed by Euro-II, Euro-III, and so on. Each subsequent stage aims to reduce pollutants to safeguard public health and the environment.
