- 4-2 Introduction Global warming has focussed the debate on the environmental compatibility of road traffic on carbon dioxide emissions. Since the beginning of the industrial revolution the CO 2 concentration in the atmosphere has risen by about 30%. With a share of 12 % in anthropogenic CO 2 emissions in Europe, road traffic is one of the main causes of global warming. Limited oil resources and the resulting rises in fuel prices have made fuel consumption a key criterion for new car purchase decisions. The EU has undertaken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 20 % by 2020 compared with the figure for 1990. The Commission has developed a strategy for reducing carbon dioxide emissions caused by. Regulation (EC) No. 443/2009 for the reduction of the CO 2 emissions of new was adopted on 23 April 2009. The objective is to reduce average CO 2 emissions to 95 g/km by 2020. The aim for 2012 is to reach average emissions of 120 grams of CO 2 per kilometre. The target for average CO 2 emissions determined in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 715/2007 is 130 g/km. The gap between the target of 120 g/km for 2012 and the limit of 130 g/km on CO 2 emissions determined during type approval testing is to be bridged by additional measures such as the increased use of fuel from renewable sources, an upper limit on the rolling resistance of tyres and the use of gear shift indicators for consumption-optimized gear-shifting. Regulation (EC) No. 443/2009 provides for a CO 2 limit of 130 g/km for new passenger cars to be introduced step by step by 2015. The limit is to be met by 65% of the new vehicles of each manufacturer in 2012, 75 % in 2013, 80 % in 2014 and 100 % in 2015. For manufacturers whose average fleet emissions exceed the target set, it is proposed to introduce an "excess emissions premium" for each additional gram of carbon dioxide emissions from 2012 onwards. By 2019, this premium is to be increased to 95 euros per gram. The amount of premium payable is to be determined on the basis of average fleet emissions. This value will be calculated on the basis of the number of new registered and the CO 2 emissions measured during type approval testing. Figure 2.1 shows the average fuel consumption of all new vehicles registered in Germany calculated from the CO 2 emissions determined during type approval testing. The diagram clearly shows that the efficiency of the new vehicle fleet has been significantly improved over the past few years. The growing number of vehicles equipped with compression ignition engines, especially in the case of larger, heavier cars, has played a key role in reducing average fuel consumption.

The average CO 2 emissions determined for newly registered in Germany in 2009 over the NEDC were 154.2 g/km. In this context, it should be noted that many small vehicles with low fuel consumption were sold in Germany in 2009 as a result of the German vehicle scrappage scheme. A slight increase in the average CO 2 emissions of newly registered vehicles is therefore to be expected in 2010. In view of the average CO 2 emissions of 154.4 g/km for the first half of the 2010, the automobile industry will need to make considerable efforts to reach the targets set by the European Commission. The basis for the determination of the CO 2 emissions of and light commercial vehicles is Regulation (EC) No. 715/2007. During type approval testing, exhaust emissions are measured on a dynamometer over the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC). The fuel consumption is calculated from the emissions of exhaust gas components (CO 2, CO and THC) containing carbon. No limits on carbon dioxide emissions or fuel consumption are defined in the type approval procedure. The CO 2 emissions and fuel consumption values declared by manufacturer must not exceed the results of type approval testing by more than 4 per cent. The CO 2 emissions and the fuel consumption determined during type approval are influenced by a number of different factors. The mass and driving resistance of the test vehicle play a key role. Other factors such as vehicle preparation before testing may have a significant impact on the test results. Especially the test room temperature and the state of charge of the vehicle battery must be taken into consideration.

- 6 - The engine speed and the gear shift points have a crucial effect on fuel consumption. The driving cycle defined by the Directive includes fixed gear shift points for vehicles equipped with internal combustion engines and manual gearboxes. In contrast, the manufacturer can define gear shift points for vehicles using automatic transmissions and hybrid vehicles with gear shift indicators. This allows such vehicles to be operated at lower engine speeds and to reach lower fuel consumptions over the driving cycle. In view of the rising importance of CO 2 emissions and fuel consumption for consumer's purchase decisions and the excess emissions premiums proposed for manufacturers, the conditions for type approval testing must be defined in such a way that the test results are reproducible and realistic. This research programme investigates the effects of various parameters on the results of type approval testing. /1/, /2/, /3/, /4/, /5/, /6/, /7/, /8/

- 7-3 Project Implementation 3.1 Investigation Programme This research programme investigated the effects of various factors on the carbon dioxide emissions and fuel consumption determined during type approval testing. For this purpose the CO 2 emissions and the fuel consumption of 6 were determined with reference to the variations in the different parameters allowed by the Directive. The first step was to measure the exhaust emissions and fuel consumption of the test vehicles as delivered. The various parameters were then varied in order to determine their influence on the test results. The measurements focussed on the vehicle mass used for the measurements, the load setting of the dynamometer, the driving cycle with the tolerances permitted and shift points used, vehicle preparation and the influence of battery charge state, The following factors were investigated: variation of the inertia mass variation of the driving resistance on the dynamometer influence of the driver, by using the tolerances in the driving cycle preparation of the test vehicle optimized measurement variation in gear shifting automatic start-stop function partially discharged starter battery ( low battery ) The various measurements and the conditions taken into consideration are presented and explained in the following paragraphs. Basic measurements: Initially, the exhaust emissions and the fuel consumption of the vehicles in delivery condition were measured on a dynamometer and the test results were compared with the values declared by the manufacturers. The measurements were based on the inertia mass and the load setting used for type approval testing. During testing the driving cycle was followed as closely as possible. Before the tests were started, the temperature of the vehicles was set to 22 C and the battery was fully charged. /9/ The following parameters relevant to the current type approval procedure were varied: Inertia mass: A key parameter for determining CO 2 emissions and fuel consumption is the equipment of the test vehicle and the vehicle mass. In Directive 92/21/EEC, Annex II, Art. 2.3 the

- 8 - mass of load in excess is declared as the the difference between the technically permissible maximum laden mass and the mass in running order increased by the mass of the conventional load. The mass of the load in excess may include the mass of optional equipment, e.g. sunroof, air conditioning, coupling device. Many manufacturers take advantage of this definition and determine the CO 2 emissions using a lower vehicle mass without consideration of this optional equipment. To evaluate the influence of the vehicle mass on CO 2 emissions, the inertia mass was increased by 2 classes in comparison to the value used during type approval testing. This means an extra weight of about 220 kg (500 lbs) due to better equipment. Within the framework of this programme, the measurements with increased inertia mass compared to the base test can be seen as representing a worst case scenario. Table 3.1 shows the relationship between unladen mass, reference mass and inertia mass of the test vehicles. /10/, /11/ Unladen mass [kg] Reference mass [kg] Inertia mass [kg] [lbs] 1,055 < UM 1,165 1,080 < RM 1,190 1,130 2,500 1,165 < UM 1,280 1,190 < RM 1,305 1,250 2,750 1,280 < UM 1,395 1,305 < RM 1,420 1,360 3,000 1,395 < UM 1,505 1,420 < RM 1,530 1,470 3,250 1,505 < UM 1,615 1,530 < RM 1,640 1,590 3,500 1,615 < UM 1,735 1,640 < RM 1,760 1,700 3,750 1,735 < UM 1,845 1,760 < RM 1,870 1,810 4,000 1,845 < UM 1,955 1,870 < RM 1,980 1,930 4,250 Table 3.1: Unladen mass, reference mass and inertia mass in accordance with ECE Regulation No. 83 (excerpt) Driving resistance: The driving resistance of the test vehicle has a decisive impact on the results of exhaust emission tests for type approval. To determine the driving resistance of a vehicle, the energy change during coast-down is measured on a test track. The test vehicle is first accelerated, then the gearbox is shifted to neutral and deceleration times for a number of different speed intervals are measured. The driving resistance of the vehicle at different speeds can be determined from these coast-down times. The vehicle mass, the rotating masses, resistances in the power train, the rolling resistance and the aerodynamic resistance of the vehicle are determined under realistic driving conditions. For later tests, the dynamometer is adjusted to obtain the same deceleration times as on the test track. This allows the driving resistance measured under real driving conditions to be simulated on the test track. For the setting of the driving resistance curve on the dynamometer, tolerances of ±5 % in the higher speed

- 9 - range (120 km/h to 40 km/h) and ±10 % in the lower speed range (20 km/h) are permitted. The results of driving resistance measurements on the test track are strongly influenced by the equipment of the test vehicle. Especially the tyres play a major role. It was not possible to carry out any coast-down tests as part of the program. The influence of driving resistance was therefore investigated by making maximum use of the permissible tolerances and reducing the load setting of the dynamometer by 20 % at 20 km/h and by 10 % in the upper speed range of 40 km/h to 120 km/h compared with the type approval setting. Figure 3.1 shows the driving resistance value for type approval determined on the test track, the dynamometer setting for the basic test and the reduced load setting as an example for one test vehicle. Driving Resistance 25.0 20.0 Power [kw] 15.0 10.0 5.0 0.0 0 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 Speed [km/h] Driving Resistance Dynamometer Setting Reduced Load Figure 3.1: Driving resistance, dynamometer setting and reduced load

- 10 - Influence of the driver: The New European Driving Cycle (NEDC), as amended by Directive 98/69/EC, defines certain tolerances on the driving curve. The deviation from the target curve must not exceed ±2 km/h or ±1.0 seconds. CO 2 emissions can be improved if specially trained drivers make full use of these tolerances. Manufacturers are allowed to use their own drivers and dynamometers The drivers can be trained in the special features of the test vehicles and can follow instructions given by the development department. To evaluate the impact of the driver's influence, attempts were made to make the maximum possible use of the permitted tolerances on the driving curve. Conditioning: Before starting the measurement over the NEDC the test vehicle has to be parked at ambient temperatures for six hours to simulate a cold start. Before the measurements are started, the deviation between the oil temperature and the temperature of the room must be no more than 2 C. For CO 2 emission measurements, the test vehicle can be conditioned to a temperature between 20 C and 30 C. If the upper limit is used, the higher oil temperature can minimize the friction loss during cold starts. If maximum use is made of the permitted tolerances, lower fuel consumption can therefore be expected. The influence of the soak temperature was investigated by placing the vehicle in a soak room with an ambient temperature of 28 C for at least 6 hours. The oil temperature at the start of the measurements was between 28 C and 30 C. Optimized measurement (best case) In order to assess the leeway allowed by current type approval testing regulations, all the optimization measures described above were combined for these measurements. The same inertia mass as during type approval testing was used. The driving resistance was reduced, the permitted tolerances on the driving curve were utilized and the vehicles were conditioned at an ambient temperature of 28 C for at least six hours before the tests were started. In addition, investigations were made of certain parameters which are currently of no importance for type approval but may possibly provide new information for future regulations. Gear shift points: In the case of vehicles with automatic transmissions and hybrid vehicles equipped with a gear shift indicator, the manufacturer is allowed to determine the gear shift points to be used in the NEDC. In contrast, the gear shift points for vehicles with manual transmissions are laid down in the Directive although the driving curve with gear shift points and the engine speed/road speed relationship are not always in line with the characteristics of the vehicle. Utilizing gear shift indicators (GSI) and the elimination of the shift points from the driving curve would be one possibility of adapting the driving curve to the state of the art.

- 11 - Start-stop system: The number of modern vehicles with automatic start-stop system is steadily growing. With a system of this type the engine is stopped automatically when the vehicle comes to a standstill and the clutch is disengaged; when the clutch is re-engaged, the engine is automatically started. The objective of a start-stop system is to reduce fuel consumption and emissions. In order to assess the influence of an automatic start-stop system, measurements were made with the system activated and de-activated. State of charge (SOC) of the battery: Ancillary systems such as air conditioning systems, heaters, power-assisted steering pumps etc. remain deactivated for type approval testing. It is therefore difficult to assess actual fuel consumption because the manufacturer only indicates that additional equipment may lead to higher fuel consumption. Another factor which affects the results is the state of charge (SOC) of the battery which is subject to deterioration over the battery lifetime. In many cases, the battery is charged during conditioning prior to type approval testing to ensure that the vehicle needs to generate as little electric power as possible during the tests. To assess the influence of additional electrical equipment and the deterioration of battery charge, measurements were made with a battery discharged to a level where the battery had to be charged during the CO 2 measurement and higher energy output was required from the internal combustion engine. The objective of the investigation is to evaluate the influence of different parameters on the measurement of CO 2 emissions and fuel consumption during type approval testing. Proposals for the future development of the directive concerning CO 2 emissions testing of as part of type approval testing were made on the basis of the test results.

- 12-3.2 Selection of Test Vehicles The objective of the investigation is to evaluate the influence of different parameters on the measurement of CO 2 emissions and fuel consumption during type approval testing. The investigations therefore concentrated on the influence of the various parameters rather than on an assessment of the vehicles selected. In order to investigate the range of effects of the various parameters, different vehicle designs were considered. The choice of vehicles was based on a number of different criteria. State-of-the-art vehicles were selected for the investigations and vehicles equipped with spark-ignition and compression-ignition engines were considered. The selection of the test vehicles was based on the vehicle registration statistics of KBA (the German Federal Office for Motor Traffic). /7/, /8/, /12/ New passenger car registrations in Germany 4,0 Registrations [million ] 3,5 3,0 2,5 2,0 1,5 1,0 0,5 0,0 All Diesel 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 Figure 3.2: New passenger car registrations in Germany from 1990 to 2008, Source: KBA Figure 3.2 shows the percentage of diesel vehicles in newly registered in Germany from 1990 to 2008. In 2009 the proportion of diesel vehicles dropped to 30.7 % as a result of the German car scrappage incentive, which led to an increase in sales of smaller and less expensive vehicles. In the first few months of 2010, the share of diesel stabilized at approx. 40 %. For this programme, it was decided that 50 % of the test vehicles should be powered by diesel engines. /9/, /10/

- 13 - Different displacement classes were taken into account. The investigation was also intended to cover vehicles produced by different manufacturers. The objective was to choose representative test vehicles. Figure 3.3 shows the percentage share of different car manufacturers in new vehicle registrations in the Federal Republic of Germany in 2009.

- 14 - After the vehicles had been delivered, checks were made to ensure compliance with the specified servicing intervals (using the service manuals) and to ensure that the vehicles were in proper condition. Before tests on the dynamometer were started, the on-board diagnosis systems were read out. No errors were stored in the diagnosis system memories of any of the vehicles. 3.3 Performance of the Investigations The type approval testing cycle, the New European Driving Cycle, as amended by Directive 98/69/EC, was used for the investigations. The NEDC consists of two sections (Figure 3.4). At first the test vehicle is conditioned to ambient temperatures between 20 and 30 C for at least six hours. The actual driving cycle begins with a cold engine start. In accordance with Directive 98/69/EC, sampling starts immediately after the engine is started, followed by the EC urban cycle (780 sec) and the extra-urban driving cycle (400 sec). The emission values measured during the two sections are combined to form a single result. The distance driven is about 11 km, at an average speed of 33.6 km/h and a maximum speed of 120 km/h. 140 120 Urban driving cycle Extra-urban driving cycle Speed [km/h] 100 80 60 40 20 0 0 200 400 600 800 1000 1200 Time [s] Figure 3.4: Speed-time-gradient of the NEDC During the measurements on the dynamometer, the emissions of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), nitrogen oxides (NO X ) und carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) are recorded (modal measurement).

- 35-5 Evaluation 5.1 Parameters affecting CO 2 measurements Table 5.1 provides an overview of the deviations of the CO 2 emissions from the results of the basic measurement determined by varying the different parameters for the individual test vehicles. The results of the urban driving cycle (UDC), the extra-urban driving cycle (EUDC) and the entire New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) are shown separately. The effects of the individual parameters on the results of the CO 2 measurements are presented and explained in the following paragraphs.

- 37-5.1.1 Basic Measurement In Figure 5.1, the carbon dioxide emissions determined in the basic measurements are compared with the values declared by the manufacturers. 200.0 180.0 Petrol vehicle Diesel vehicle 160.0 CO2 emissions [g/km] 140.0 120.0 100.0 80.0 60.0 40.0 20.0 0. 1 2 3 4 5 6 Vehicle Values declared by manufacturer Basic measurement Figure 5.1: Comparison of CO 2 emissions determined by basic measurement with values declared by the manufacturers The graph clearly shows that the values determined by the basic measurement were higher than those declared by the manufacturers for all the test vehicles, even though the same inertia mass and load settings were used as for the type approval tests. In this context, it should be noted that the CO 2 emissions and fuel consumption values declared by the manufacturer are allowed to deviate about 4 percent from the results of type approval testing. In the case of vehicles 2 (OPEL CORSA) and 4 (PEUGEOT 207HDI), the results of the basic measurements are within the permitted tolerance range. For vehicle 1 (VW GOLF) the air conditioning compressor could not be deactivated completely as in the type approval procedure, but was driven with zero output by a swash plate. It was also not possible to switch off the daytime running lights of the Golf for testing. The additional energy consumption of the air conditioning compressor and the lights may have caused the increase in CO 2 emissions compared with the manufacturer's declared values. In the case of vehicles 5 (AUDI A4 TDI) and 6 (MERCEDES C200 CDI) the CO 2 emissions determined by the basic measurements were more than 10 % in excess of - 37 -
