Summary Today Air Quality Targets for PM cannot be met in all areas of EU. Combustion engines remain major share of powertrains even beyond 2020. Key focus of long term powertrain development is low CO 2 and thus GDI market share will increase. New GPF concepts for GDI applications have been developed: Effective PN reduction in different test cycles and under real driving conditions. GPF concepts show no significant impact on CO 2 emission during NEDC and other more dynamic drive cycles. GPF with integrated TWC activity for additional gas conversion works for extensive travel distance at least up to 160,000. Slide 22
