Be it Euro 1 0r 6, thats the maximum accepted in EU - (your link referred).  What I am implying actually, was the standard set (latest being 2009) and no matter which Euro # you are producing (diesel Euro 0-6) the allowable emmission has to meet the required standard.  As per your link (I concur), however "sulphur-free" do not mean it is free of sulphur. Fuel can never be free of it as decreasing the sulphur content will also decrease the lubricity of the fuel (minimize the content of sulphur is the only solution), thus additives have to be added (more cost) to make it commercially viable. So, a standard is put in place (with the max of 10ppm / S) ...  My reasoning of the Euro 1-6 is just to highlight what "Euro 0 -6" stands for and that is "the acceptable emmision of NOx, THC, NMHC, CO, CO2 and other PM" regulated for new vehicles (be it Modified or Non-Modified :4<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />. If you look at the spec-sheet closely, these emmission are mandatory items that has to meet the standard set. No S is noted as it has been the industry understanding to comply to the set requirement without question .... :4:  Cheers bro and I do stand corrected (sharing is caring) :top:.</blockquote>
