EURO IV is a set of emission standards applying to new road vehicles sold in the EU from 2005 or later. It limits diesel passenger car emissions to 0.25 g/km of NOx and 0.025 g/km of Particulate Matter (PM), petrol cars to 0.08 g/km NOx and Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) to 3.5 g/kWh of NOx and 0.02 g/kWh of PM.

Though no specific technology is mandated to meet the requirements, the reductions in emissions are typically achieved through the use of either Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) or Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) technologies. Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR): Gaseous or liquid ammonia is added to the flue gas stream and is absorbed onto a catalyst. ... Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) was an early and primitive automobile emissions-control device that was used from the late 1960s through the early 1980s. ...
For heavy duty diesel trucks Euro IV will be succeeded by Euro V, to be introduced in 2008 and coming into force in 2009. For passenger cars, a Euro V standard is not set yet but is currently considered by the European Commission in the proposed regulation COM(2005) 683 final.
