Over the past seven years, we’ve built extensive expertise on this topic — by visiting Umweltzones across Germany and by staying in close contact with tens of thousands of customers.Thanks to this, we’ve gathered a complete picture of how the system works in practice: from first-time confusion to local exceptions you only discover once you’re on the road.
