EU rules for the calculation and reporting of recycled content in single-use plastic bottlesfiled 8 Aug 2025PDFsource

The Volkswagen Group anticipates that the rules for calculation, verification and reporting of data on chemically-recycled plastic content in single-use plastic beverage bottles could serve as a blue print for future rules in other sectors. We are therefore participating in this consultation to ensure that automotive-specific considerations are appropriately reflected.

EU-wide end-of-waste criteria for plastic wastefiled 26 Jan 2026PDFsource

The Volkswagen Group fully supports advancing the European Union into a modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy. Therefore, we welcome the Commissions proposal to define criteria for when plastic waste ceases to be waste on the basis of the already existing regulation for steel scrap ((EU) 333/201199).

Batteries – definition of labelling requirementsfiled 13 Jan 2026PDFsource

With the attached position we welcome the Commissions efforts to clarify and streamline labelling requirements and welcome several improvements in the current draft. At the same time, we would like to highlight several points where further adjustments are necessary to ensure the regulation remains practical, proportionate, and aligned with industry realities.

Commission Implementing Regulation on the list for the purposes of Article 26 of Regulation (EU) 2024/1252filed 25 Jul 2025PDFsource

As a manufacturer of cars and batteries, we believe that sector-specific regulations such as the Batteries Regulation and the proposed End-of-Life Vehicles (ELV) Regulation should remain the primary legal instruments driving circularity in our industries. Any circularity measures targeting batteries or motor vehicles, including those related to critical raw materials, must be anchored in these two regulations.
