This low emission zone has been abolished. No environmental badge is required for any type of vehicle to enter. Environmental badges that have already been issued remain valid for all other low emission zones in Germany.
Mannheim introduced a low-emissions zone back in 2008 and has gradually tightened the conditions for the emissions class. The aim of the zone is to avoid an increase in emissions by preventing vehicles from entering that are least environmentally friendly. As of January 1, 2013, only German and foreign drivers with a valid green plaque placed on the windscreen can visit Mannheim.
From 1.1. 2013, all drivers need a green plaque to enter Mannheim. Entrance is therefore allowed only to vehicles that produce a minimum level of air pollution that falls under the Euro 4 (diesel) or Euro 1 (petrol) emissions classes. Failure to comply with these rules is punished in Germany with a fine of 100 €.
The Mannheim low-emissions zone includes the central parts of the city, including Quadrate, Oststadt, Schwetzingerstadt, Neckarstadt and Jungbusch.
