In recent decades many countries have taken actions to reduce toxic emissions from cars and, especially, reduce risks to public health. Research indicates a statistically significant relationship between carbon monoxide (CO) and respiratory diseases. Regulations were vital to set targets and standards that fostered the technological improvement of automobiles. The goal of this research was to analyze the role of regulation as an inductor to automotive environmental technologies in the reduction of toxic emissions from light vehicles manufactured in Brazil. A qualitative descriptive research with a documentary base was carried out. The diffusion of these technologies in Brazil shows a chronological gap between the implementation phases of the European regulations and Program for the Control of Air Pollution from Automotive Vehicle (PROCONVE). Research results show that regulation has fostered the diffusion of environmental technological innovation, with the introduction of electronic fuel injection, catalytic converter and engine improvement. According to the changes identified, legislation leads to a technological balancing process among car manufacturers with a scale gain, in order to promote the diffusion of environmental technologies to reduce emissions of toxic gases.
