Thought i might post this interesting article posted by Eurol, a Dutch lubricant manufacturer.
This is regarding the manufacturer requirements for the upcoming Euro7 standards and how this will also put stricter requirements on the engine oil.

These upcoming Euro7 standards will probably "kill" a lot more fun cars/engines with their supertight emission restrictions for multiple pollutants compared to the older simpler standards.
Also the need for the vehicle to self monitor/test and comply with these standards for 200.000kms has to be a massive engineering challenge because i guess they basically will have to warrant this for all those years.
The added complexity will probably make new cars "even worse" reliability wise and this will also drive up the production costs and make smaller/cheaper harder to bring to the market similair as to the requirements for lane keep assists and auto braking "killed" some of the smaller models.
Dont get me wrong i like clean air
. But as someone with some experience on the ecu programming/tuning scene i can see this will be a big task.
