null ANNEX I DETERMINATION OF CO2 EMISSIONS AND FUEL CONSUMPTION 1.SCOPE This Directive applies to the measurement of carbon dioxide (CO2)emissions and fuel consumption of motor vehicles of categories M1 and N1.It does not apply to a type of N1 vehicle if both: the engine type fitted to that type of vehicle has received type-approval pursuant to Directive 88/77/EEC, and the total annual worldwide production of N1 vehicles of the manufacturer is less than 2000 units. 2.APPLICATION FOR EC TYPE-APPROVAL 2.1. The application for EC type-approval pursuant to Article 3 (4) of Directive 70/156/EEC for a vehicle type with regard to CO2 emissions and fuel consumption shall be submitted by the manufacturer. 2.2. A model for the information document is given in Annex II to Directive 70/220/EEC. When already available, the type-approval number will also be reported. When appropriate, copies of other type-approvals with the relevant data are provided to enable extension of approvals in accordance with point 11. At the request of the technical service in charge of the tests or the manufacturer, complementary technical information could be considered for specific vehicles which are particularly fuel efficient. 2.3. For the test described in point 6, a vehicle representative of the vehicle type to be approved will be submitted when the technical service responsible for the type-approval tests carries out the tests itself. For M1 and N1 vehicles, type-approved with respect to their emissions according to Directive 70/220/EEC, the technical service will check during the test that this vehicle conforms to the limit values applicable to that type, as described in Directive 70/220/EEC. 3.GRANTING OF EC TYPE-APPROVAL 3.1. If the relevant requirements are satisfied, EC type-approval pursuant to Article 4 (3) of Directive 70/156/EEC shall be granted. 3.2. A model for the EC type-approval certificate is given in Annex II. 3.3. An approval number in accordance with Annex VII to Directive 70/156/EEC shall be assigned to each vehicle type approved. The same Member State shall not assign the same number to another vehicle type. 4.GENERAL REQUIREMENTS 4.1. The CO2 emissions are measured during the test cycle simulating the urban and extra-urban driving patterns as described in Appendix 1 of Annex III to Directive 70/220/EEC, as last amended. 4.2. The results of the test must be expressed as carbon dioxide emissions in g/km rounded to the nearest whole number. 4.3.

The CO2 value adopted as the type-approval value shall be the value declared by the manufacturer if the value measured by the technical service does not exceed the declared value by more than 4 %. The measured value can be lower without any limitations. 6.5.2. If the measured value of CO2 exceeds the manufacturer's declared CO2 value by more than 4 %, then another test is run on the same vehicle.When the average of the two test results does not exceed the manufacturer's declared value by more than 4 %, then the value declared by the manufacturer is taken as the type-approval value. 6.5.3. If the average still exceeds the declared value by more than 4 %, a final test is run on the same vehicle.The average of the three test results is taken as the type-approval value.
7.CALCULATION OF FUEL CONSUMPTIONS 7.1. The fuel consumptions are calculated from the emissions of hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide calculated in accordance with paragraph 6. 7.2. The fuel consumption, expressed in litres per 100 km (in the case of petrol, LPG or diesel) or in m3 per 100 km (in the case of NG), is calculated by means of the following formulae:Repeat for petrol and gaseous fuel in the case of a vehicle that can run either on petrol or on a gaseous fuel. Vehicles that can be fuelled with both petrol and a gaseous fuel, but where the petrol system is fitted for emergency purposes or starting only and of which the petrol tank cannot contain more than 15 litres of petrol will be regarded for the test as vehicles which can only run a gaseous fuel. (a)for vehicles with a positive ignition engine fuelled with petrol: FC = 0,1154/D × 0,866 × THC + 0,429 × CO + 0,273 × CO2 (b)for vehicles with a positive ignition engine fuelled with LPG: FCnorm = 0,1212/0,538 × 0,825 × THC+0,429 × CO+0,273 × CO2If the composition of the fuel used for the test differs from the composition that is assumed for the calculation of the normalised consumption, on the manufacturer's request a correction factor cf may be applied as follows:The correction factorcf, which may be applied, is determined as follows:where: nactualthe actual H/C ratio of the fuel used (c)for vehicles with a positive ignition engine fuelled with NG: FCnorm = 0,1336/0,654 × 0,749 × THC+0,429 × CO+0,273 × CO2 (d)for vehicles with a compression ignition engine: FC = 0,1155/D × 0,866 × THC+0,429 × CO+0,273 × C02 In these formulae: FCthe fuel consumption in litre per 100 km (in the case of petrol, LPG or diesel) or in m3 per 100 km (in the case of NG) THCthe measured emission of total hydrocarbons in g/km COthe measured emission of carbon monoxide in g/km CO2the measured emission of carbon dioxide in g/km Dthe density of the test fuel at 15 °C. 8.AMENDMENTS TO APPROVALS 8.1. In the case of amendments to approvals granted pursuant to this Directive the provisions of Article 5 of Directive 70/156/EEC shall apply. 9.CONFORMITY OF PRODUCTION FOR CO2 EMISSIONS 9.1. As a general rule, measures to ensure the conformity of production with regard to CO2 emissions from vehicles is checked on the basis of the description in the type-approval certificate set out in Annex II to this Directive and in accordance with the provisions of Article 10 of Directive 70/156/EEC.If the authority is not satisfied with the auditing procedure of the manufacturer, then points 2.4.2 and 2.4.3 of Annex X to Directive 70/156/EEC shall apply. 9.1.1. If a vehicle type has had one or several extensions, the tests will be carried out on the vehicle(s) described in the information package which accompanied the first type-approval application. 9.1.1.1. Conformity of the vehicle for the CO2 test. 9.1.1.1.1. Three vehicles are randomly taken in the series and are tested as described in paragraph 6 of this Annex. 9.1.1.1.2. If the authority is satisfied with the production standard deviation given by the manufacturer, according to Annex X to Directive 70/156/EEC, the tests are carried out according to point 9.2 of this Annex.If the authority is not satisfied with the production standard deviation given by the manufacturer according to Annex X to Directive 70/156/EEC, the tests are carried out according to point 9.3 of this Annex. 9.1.1.1.3. The production of a series is regarded as conforming or non-conforming, on the basis of tests on the three sampled vehicles, once a pass or fail decision is reached for CO2, according to the test criteria applied in the appropriate table.If no pass decision and/or no fail decision is reached for CO2, a test is carried out on an additional vehicle (see Figure I/8). 9.1.1.2. Notwithstanding the requirements of point 5.1.1 of this Annex, the tests will be carried out on vehicles which have not travelled any distance. 9.1.1.2.1. However, at the request of the manufacturer, the tests will be carried out on vehicles which have been run-in a maximum of 15000 km.In this case, the running-in procedure will be conducted by the manufacturer who shall undertake not to make any adjustments to those vehicles. 9.1.1.2.2. If the manufacturer asks to conduct a running-in procedure ("x" km, where x ≤ 15000 km), it may be carried out as follows: the emission of CO2 will be measured at zero and at "x" km on the first tested vehicle (which can be the type-approval vehicle), the evolution coefficient of the emission between zero and "x" km will be calculated as follows:It may be less than one, the following vehicles will not be subjected to the running-in procedure, but their zero km emissions will be modified by the evolution coefficient, EC.In this case, the values to be taken will be: the value at "x" km for the first vehicle, the values at zero km multiplied by the evolution coefficient for the following vehicles. 9.1.1.2.3. As an alternative to this procedure, the car manufacturer can use a fixed evolution coefficient EC of 0,92 and multiply all values of CO2 measured at zero km by this factor. 9.1.1.2.4. The reference fuels described in Annex IX and Annex IXa to Directive 70/220/EEC, as last amended, shall be used for testing. 9.2.Conformity of production when manufacturer's statistical data is available 9.2.1. The following sections describe the procedure to be used to verify the CO2 conformity of production requirements when the manufacturer's production standard deviation is satisfactory. 9.2.2. With a minimum sample size of three the sampling procedure is set so that the probability of a lot passing a test with 40 % of the production defective is 0,95 (producer's risk = 5 %), while the probability of a lot being accepted with 65 % of the production defective is 0,1 (consumer's risk = 10 %). 9.2.3. The following procedure is used (see Figure I/8).Let L be the natural logarithm of the CO2 type-approval value: xithe natural logarithm of the measurement for the i-th vehicle of the sample; san estimate of the production standard deviation (after taking the natural logarithm of the measurements); nthe current sample number. 9.2.4. Compute for the sample, the test statistic quantifying the sum of the standardized deviations to the limit and defined as: 1s Σi =1nL - xi 9.2.5. Then: if the test statistic is greater than the pass decision number for the sample size given in Table I/ - /9.2.5, a pass decision is reached, if the test statistic is less than the fail decision number for the sample size given in Table I/ - /9.2.5, a fail decision is reached, otherwise, an additional vehicle is tested according to point 6 of this Annex and the procedure is applied to the sample with one unit more.

With a minimum sample size of three the sampling procedure is set so that the probability of a lot passing a test with 40 % of the production defective is 0,95 (producer's risk = 5 %), while the probability of a lot being accepted with 65 % of the production defective is 0,1 (consumer's risk = 10 %). 9.3.3. The measurement of CO2 is considered to be log normally distributed and should first be transformed by taking the natural logarithms. Let m0 and m denote the minimum and maximum sample sizes respectively (m0 = 3 and m = 32) and let n denote the current sample number. 9.3.4. If the natural logarithms of the measurements in the series are x1, x2, …, xj and L is the natural logarithm of the CO2 type-approval value, then define: dj = xj - L d-n = 1n Σj = 1n dj and: Vn2 = 1n Σj = 1ndj - d-n2 9.3.5. Table I/ - /9.3.5 shows values of the pass (An) and fail (Bn) decision numbers against current sample number. The test statistic is the ratio d-n /Vn and shall be used to determine whether the series has passed or failed as follows: for m0 ≤ n ≤ m: pass the series ifd-n/Vn ≤ An, fail the series ifd-n/Vn ≥ Bn, take another measurement if An <d-n/Vn < Bn. 9.3.6.Remarks The following recursive formulae are useful for computing successive values of the test statistic: d-n = 1 - 1n d-n - 1 + 1n dn Vn2 = 1 - 1n Vn2 - 1 + d-n - dn2n - 1 n = 2, 3, …; d-1 = d1; V1 = 0

10.SPECIAL PROVISIONS 10.1. In the future, vehicles with special fuel efficient technologies may be offered which could be submitted to complementary testing programmes. These would be specified at a later stage which can be claimed by the manufacturer in order to demonstrate the advantages of the solution. 11.EXTENSION OF APPROVAL 11.1. The type-approval can be extended to vehicles from the same type or from a different type differing with regard to the following characteristics of Annex II, if the CO2 emissions measured by the technical service do not exceed the type-approval value by more than 4 % for vehicles of category M1 and 6 % for vehicles of category N1: reference mass, maximum authorised mass, type of bodywork: for M1: saloon, hatchback, station wagon, coupé, convertible, multipurpose vehicle for N1: lorry, van, overall gear ratios, engine equipment and accessories. 11.2.Extension of approval of vehicles of category N1 within a family: 11.2.1. For vehicles of category N1 that are approved as members of a vehicle family using the procedure in Annex I, point 12.2, the type-approval can be extended to vehicles from within the same family only if the technical service estimates that the fuel consumption of the new vehicle does not exceed the fuel consumption of the vehicle on which the family's fuel consumption is based.Approvals may also be extended to vehicles which: are up to 110 kg heavier than the family member tested, provided that they are within 220 kg of the lightest member of the family, have a lower overall transmission ratio than the family member tested due solely to a change in tyre sizes and conform with the family in all other respects. 11.2.2. For vehicles of category N1 that are approved as members of a vehicle family using the procedure in Annex I, point 12.3, the type-approval can be extended to vehicles from within the same family without additional testing only if the technical service estimates that the fuel consumption of the new vehicle falls within the limits made up of those two vehicles in the family that have the lowest and the highest fuel consumption, respectively. 12.APPROVAL OF VEHICLES OF CATEGORY N1 WITHIN A FAMILY Vehicles of category N1 can be approved within a family as defined in 12.1 using one of the two alternative methods described in 12.2 and 12.3. 12.1.N1 vehicles may be grouped together into a family for the purposes of this Directive if the following parameters are identical or within the specified limits: 12.1.1.Identical parameters are: manufacturer and type as defined in Annex II, section I, point 0.2, engine capacity, emission control system type, fuel system type as defined in Annex II, point 1.5.2. 12.1.2.The following parameters have to be within the following limits: transmission overall ratios (no more than 8 % higher than the lowest) as defined in Annex II, point 1.6.3, reference mass (no more than 220 kg lighter than the heaviest), frontal area (no more than 15 % smaller than the largest), engine power (no more than 10 % less than the highest value). 12.2.A vehicle family, as defined in 12.1, can be approved with CO2 emission and fuel consumption data that are common to all members of the family. The technical service must select for testing the member of the family which the service considers to have the highest CO2 emission. The measurements are performed as described in point 6, and the results according to the method described in 6.5 are used as type-approval values that are common to all members of the family. 12.3.Vehicles that are grouped in a family as defined in 12.1 can be approved with individual CO2 emission and fuel consumption data for each of the family members. The technical service selects for testing the two vehicles, which the service considers to have the highest and the lowest CO2 emissions respectively. The measurements are performed as described in point 6. If the manufacturer's data for these two vehicles falls within the tolerance limits described in 6.5, the CO2emissions declared by the manufacturer for all members of the vehicle family can be used as type-approval values. If the manufacturer's data do not fall within the tolerance limits, the results according to the method described in 6.5 are used as type-approval values and the technical service shall select an appropriate number of other family members for additional tests.
