Back up cameras are not mandatory until May 2022 in the EU.

Cars designed at least three years before they are shipped - so May 2022 might as well be tomorrow in car time.

Ah. Not only does our car (VW from 2016) not have one, I don't think I have ever been in a car that had a backup camera.

Reading in this thread that it's impossible to even buy a car without it is very surprising to me.

We're already only a few months away from 2022, most (if not all) carmakers present on the EU market have included back-up cameras in their vehicles. I know that my brother's Dacia Logan built in 2019 already had one.

Backup cameras have been an optional extra for a long time sure, but I don't think I'm aware of any car that actually comes standard with one. Well, maybe a Mercedes-Benz S-Class. I do have a backup camera in my 10-year-old Benz, but I imagine that the original owner paid a four-digit amount of euros for it back in the day.
