COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2017/1152
of 2 June 2017
setting out a methodology for determining the correlation parameters necessary for reflecting the change in the regulatory test procedure with regard to light commercial vehicles and amending Implementing Regulation (EU) No 293/2012
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 510/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 May 2011 setting emission performance standards for new light commercial vehicles as part of the Union’s integrated approach to reduce CO2 emissions from light-duty vehicles (1), and in particular the first subparagraph of Article 8(9) and the third subparagraph of Article 13(6) thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
A new regulatory test procedure for measuring CO2 emissions and fuel consumption from light duty vehicles, the Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP), set out in Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/1151 (2), will replace the New European Test Cycle (NEDC), which is currently used pursuant to Commission Regulation (EC) No 692/2008 (3), with effect starting from 1 September 2017. The WLTP is expected to provide CO2 emission and fuel consumption values that are more representative of real driving conditions. |
|
(2) |
In order to take into account the difference in the level of CO2 emissions measured under the existing NEDC and the new WLTP procedures, a methodology for correlating those values should be provided to allow the determination of the manufacturers’ compliance with their specific CO2 emission targets pursuant to Regulation (EU) No 510/2011. |
|
(3) |
For light commercial vehicles, the WLTP is to be gradually applied in two separate steps, starting with new N1 class I vehicle types from 1 September 2017 and all new N1 class I vehicles from 1 September 2018. The WLTP will be implemented 1 year later for category N1 class II and III, i.e. for new vehicle types from 1 September 2018 and for all new vehicles from 1 September 2019. End-of-series vehicles as defined in point (22) of Article 3 of Directive 2007/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (4) belonging to the latter category N1 class II and III may however remain on the market until 28 February 2021 at the latest in accordance with Article 27 of Directive 2007/46/EC. |
|
(4) |
While it is appropriate to continue verifying compliance with specific emission targets using NEDC based CO2 emission values during the separate steps of gradual application of the WLTP, it is also desirable to ensure that the change to WLTP based targets takes place at the same time for all light duty vehicles. As a consequence, it is necessary to take into account the end-of-series vehicles that will remain on the market until 2021 and attribute a default WLTP CO2 emissions value to those vehicles. That default value should be defined so that it does not affect negatively the manufacturer’s ability to comply with its specific emission target in 2021. |
|
(5) |
Consideration should also be given to the specific situation of manufacturers of incomplete vehicles as defined in Article 3(19) of Directive 2007/46/EC which are type approved in multiple stages. For the purposes of the correlation, it is appropriate to attribute a single correlated NEDC CO2 emissions value to incomplete vehicles belonging to the same road load matrix family as defined in point 5.2 of Sub-Annex 4 to Annex XXI to Regulation (EU) 2017/1151. |
|
(6) |
Moreover, manufacturers should be allowed, in the case of N1 vehicles with a technically permissible maximum laden mass of 3 000 kg or more to have the choice to either derive NEDC road load coefficients from the WLTP tests or to use the tabulated values set out in Table 3 of Annex 4(a) to Regulation UN/ECE No 83 (5). |
|
(7) |
It is desirable to limit the testing burden for both manufacturers and type approval authorities and the possibility to determine the reference NEDC CO2 emission values by way of simulations should therefore be provided. A specific vehicle simulation tool (the correlation tool) has been developed for that purpose. The input data for the correlation tool should not require additional tests but be derived from the WLTP type approval tests. |
|
(8) |
The stringency of the CO2 reduction requirements following the change to WLTP must, in accordance with the fourth subparagraph of Article 13(6) to Regulation (EU) No 510/2011, remain comparable for manufacturers and vehicles of different utility to that defined in Regulation (EU) No 510/2011 by reference to the CO2 emission levels determined in accordance with the NEDC procedure. The correlation procedure should therefore take into account those NEDC test conditions which are explicitly required for granting a type approval. |
|
(9) |
There may be advanced vehicle technologies or specific technology configurations for which the correlation tool might not be able to deliver NEDC CO2 values with sufficient accuracy. In those cases, the manufacturer should have the possibility to perform a physical vehicle test instead. In order to ensure a level playing field, the same NEDC test conditions that have been defined for the correlation tool should apply for those tests. |
|
(10) |
In order to ensure comparable stringency, it is necessary to make certain adjustments to the calculation of the eco-innovation savings referred to in Article 12 of Regulation (EU) No 510/2011. However, the framework conditions for that modality are considered not to be directly dependent on the applicable test procedure, and, should, as a consequence, be maintained without adjustments, including the cap set for the eco-innovation savings. |
|
(11) |
It is important to ensure that procedural tolerances and correlation tool outputs are applied as intended and not as a means to artificially lower the CO2 emission values used for target compliance purposes. Therefore, a limited number of random physical tests should be performed with a view to verifying that the input data and the NEDC reference values based on the correlation tool output are correctly determined. If it is found, as a result of a random test, that a manufacturer has declared an NEDC CO2 value for the purpose of the type approval that is lower than the tolerance permitted in the measurement result or if incorrect input data has been provided, it should be possible for the Commission to determine and apply a correction factor to increase the average specific emissions of a manufacturer. This should also act as a disincentive for any abuse or overexploitations of measurement tolerances. |
|
(12) |
The monitoring of CO2 emission values is regulated in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 293/2012 (6). The provisions of that Implementing Regulation need to be adjusted to the new test procedure. It is also appropriate to align the monitoring provisions for light commercial vehicles with the monitoring provisions for passenger cars set out in Commission Regulation (EU) No 1014/2010 (7). With the WLTP, a specific CO2 emission value will be calculated and recorded in the certificate of conformity of each individual vehicle and those values should be monitored in addition to already existing data parameters. Therefore, Implementing Regulation (EU) No 293/2012 should be amended accordingly. |
|
(13) |
In view of the required extensive adaptations of vehicle registration and CO2 monitoring systems, it is appropriate to provide Member States with the possibility to gradually introduce the new monitoring parameters in 2017 and require the complete new dataset from 2018 only. The 2017 data to be reported should include as a minimum the data required for target compliance purposes and for preventing abuse of the correlation procedure. |
|
(14) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Climate Change Committee, |

ANNEX I
1. INTRODUCTION
This Annex sets out the methodology for determining the NEDC CO2 value of individual N1 vehicles.
2. DETERMINATION OF THE NEDC CO2 VALUE FOR THE WLTP INTERPOLATION FAMILY
2.1. Correlation tool
The type approval authority shall ensure that the NEDC CO2 values to be used as reference for the purpose of Section 3 are determined by way of simulations in accordance with the provisions set out in this Annex.
The Commission shall provide a simulation tool for that purpose (hereinafter the ‘correlation tool’) in the form of downloadable, executable, software. The Commission shall also provide guidance on the capacity of the correlation tool to simulate vehicles with advanced technologies, and, where necessary, recommend the use of physical measurements instead of simulations.
2.1.1. Access to the correlation tool
The correlation tool shall be installed on a computer of the type approval authority or, where applicable, the technical service, following the instructions provided on the following website:
[http://ec.europa.eu/clima/policies/transport/vehicles/cars/documentation_en.htm]
The type approval authority shall ensure that the correlation tool is operated in accordance with the requirements of this Regulation and the user instructions set out in the user manual (1).
Support to the approval authorities and technical services using the correlation tool for the purpose of this Regulation shall be provided by the Commission on request. Requests for support shall be addressed to the following functional mailbox (2):
co2mpas@jrc.ec.europa.eu
The correlation tool shall be accessible to other users, however, support shall only be provided to those users within the limits of available resources.
2.1.2. Designation of correlation tool users
Member States shall inform the Commission of the respective contact points responsible for executing the correlation tool runs at the approval authority and, where applicable, at the technical services. Only one contact point per authority or service shall be appointed. The information provided to the Commission shall include the following (the name of the organisation, the name of the person responsible, the postal address, the email address and the telephone number). This information shall be sent to the following functional mailbox (3):
EC-CO2-LDV-IMPLEMENTATION@ec.europa.eu
Electronic signing keys for the purpose of the execution of the correlation tool shall be provided only at the request of the contact point (4). The Commission shall publish guidance on the procedure to follow for such requests.
2.1.3. Annual up-date of the correlation tool
The performance of the correlation tool shall be continuously reviewed, taking into account information provided, in particular, by the contact persons referred to in point 2.1.2. Where appropriate, the Commission shall prepare a new version of the tool to be released annually on 1 September. The new version shall not affect the validity of results provided by previous versions.
The new version may be applied for the purpose of the procedure set out in Section 3 from the date of its release. With the agreement of the type approval authority or the technical service, the previous version of the correlation tool may, however, continue to be used during a maximum period of 2 months following the release of the new version.
The version used as well as the operating system of the computer on which the correlation tool has been run by the type approval authority or technical service shall be indicated in the correlation tool output report.
Where the applicability of the new version requires the adjustment of any provisions set out in this Regulation, the release of the new version shall not take place until the Regulation has been amended accordingly.
2.1.4. Ad-hoc adjustments of the correlation tool
Notwithstanding point 2.1.3, in case of serious malfunctioning of the correlation tool for the purpose of the procedure set out in Section 3, a new version of the tool shall be prepared and released as soon as possible following the detection of the malfunction. The new version shall apply from the date of its release and shall not affect the validity of results provided by previous versions.
Where the applicability of the new version requires the adjustment of any provisions set out in this Regulation, the release of the new version shall not take place until the Regulation has been amended accordingly.
2.2. Identification of the WLTP test results to be used for the purpose of defining the input data for the simulation model
The input data for the correlation tool simulations shall be taken from the relevant WLTP test results for vehicle H and, where applicable, vehicle L as defined in accordance with point 4.2.1.2 of Sub-Annex 4 to Annex XXI to Regulation (EU) 2017/1151. Where more than one WLTP type approval test of vehicle H or L is performed in accordance with Table A6/2 of Annex XXI to that Regulation, the following test results shall be used for the purpose of determining the input data:
|
(a) |
In the case two type approval tests are performed, the test results with the highest combined CO2 emissions shall be used; |
|
(b) |
In the case three type approval tests are performed, the test results with the median combined CO2 emissions shall be used. |
2.3. Determination of the input data and conditions for the operation of the correlation tool
The test conditions referred to in Annex XII to Regulation (EC) No 692/2008 shall be taken into account in the correlation tool simulations, including the precisions provided for in points 2.3.1 to 2.3.8 of this Annex.
The physical vehicle measurements referred to in Section 3 shall be performed in accordance with the conditions referred to in that Regulation, with the precisions given in this Annex, and, where applicable, the input data defined in point 2.4.
2.3.1. Determination of the NEDC vehicle inertia
2.3.1.1. NEDC reference mass of vehicle H, and where applicable of vehicle L, and of the representative vehicle of a road load matrix family in the case of completed vehicles
The NEDC reference mass of vehicles H and L of the WLTP interpolation family and vehicle R of the WLTP road load matrix family shall be determined as follows:
Where,
MRO is the mass in running order as defined in Article 3(g) of Regulation (EU) No 510/2011 for vehicle H, L and R respectively.
The reference mass to be used as input for the simulations and, where applicable, for a physical vehicle test, shall be the inertia value set out in Table 3 of Annex 4a to UN/ECE Regulation No 83 which is equivalent to the reference mass, RM, determined in accordance with this point and shall be referred to as TMn,L, TMn,H and TMn,R.
2.3.1.2. NEDC reference mass of the representative vehicle of a road load matrix family in the case of incomplete vehicles to be submitted to multi-stage type approval
In the case of incomplete N1 vehicles, the NEDC reference mass (RMn,MSV) of the representative vehicle in the road load matrix family shall be determined as follows:
Where,
MRO is as defined in point 2.3.1.1, and
DAM is as defined in Section 5 of Annex XII to Regulation (EC) No 692/2008.
The reference mass to be used as input to the simulations and, where applicable, for a physical vehicle test, shall be the inertia value set out in Table 3 of Annex 4a to UN/ECE Regulation No 83 which is equivalent to the reference mass RM, determined in accordance with this point and shall be referred to as TMn,R
2.3.2. Determination of the pre-conditioning effect
In preparing the chassis-dynamometer for the execution of a type-approval test, the vehicle is pre-conditioned in order to reach similar conditions to those used in the coast-down test. The pre-conditioning procedure used in the WLTP test differs from that used for the purpose of NEDC so that, with equal road loads, the vehicle is considered subject to higher forces under the WLTP. That difference shall be set at 6 Newton and that value shall be used for the calculation of the NEDC road loads in accordance with point 2.3.8.
2.3.3. Ambient conditions referred to in point 3.1.1 of UN/ECE Regulation No 83
For the purpose of the correlation tool, the test cell temperature shall be set at 25 °C.
Also in the case of a physical vehicle measurement pursuant to Section 3, the test cell temperature shall be set at 25 °C. However, on request by the manufacturer, the test cell temperature may be set at a value between 20 to 25 °C for the physical measurement.
2.3.4. Determination of the initial battery state of charge
The initial battery state of charge shall be set to at least 99 % for the purpose of the correlation tool test. The same shall apply in the case of a physical vehicle test.
2.3.5. Determination of the difference in tyre pressure prescriptions
According to point 6.6.3 of Appendix 3 to Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2017/1151 the lowest recommended tyre pressure for the vehicle test mass shall be used during the coast down for the road load determination, while this is not specified in the NEDC. For the purpose of determining the tyre pressure to be taken into account for the purpose of calculating the NEDC road load in accordance with point 2.3.8, the tyre pressure shall, taking into account the different tyre pressure per vehicle axle, be the average between the two axles of the average between the minimum and maximum tyre pressure permitted for the selected tyres on each axle for the NEDC reference mass of the vehicle. The calculation shall be carried out for vehicle H, and where applicable, for vehicles L and R in accordance with the following formulae:
For vehicle H:
For vehicle L:
For vehicle R:
Where,
|
Pmax, |
is the average of the maximum tyre pressures of the selected tyres for the two axles; |
|
Pmin, |
is the average of the minimum tyre pressures of the selected tyres for the two axles. |
The corresponding effect in terms of resistance applied to the vehicle shall be calculated using the following formulae for vehicles H, L and R:
For vehicle H:
For vehicle L:
For vehicle R:
2.3.6. Determination of the tyre tread depth (TTD)
According to point 4.2.2.2 of Sub-Annex 4 to Annex XXI to Regulation (EU) 2017/1151 the minimum tyre tread depth is 80 % for the WLTP test, while pursuant to point 4.2 of Appendix 7 to Annex 4a to UN/ECE Regulation No 83, the minimum allowed tyre tread depth for the purpose of the NEDC test is 50 % of the nominal value. That results in an average difference of 2 mm in tread depth between the two procedures. The corresponding effect in terms of the resistance applied to the vehicle shall be determined for the purpose of the NEDC road load calculation in point 2.3.8 in accordance with the following formulae for vehicles H, L and R:
For vehicle H:
For vehicle L:
For vehicle R:
Where,
RMn,H, RMn,L or RMn,R are the reference masses of vehicle H, L and R determined in accordance with point 2.3.1.1.
2.3.7. Determination of the inertia of rotating parts
For the purpose of the correlation tool:
During the simulation of the WLTP test four rotating wheels shall be considered, while for the purpose of the NEDC tests only two rotating wheels shall be considered. The effect this has on the forces applied to the vehicle shall be taken into account in accordance with the formulae set out in point 2.3.8.1.1(a)(3).
The acceleration and deceleration forces in the correlation tool shall be calculated for the NEDC simulation by considering the inertia of only two rotating wheels.
For the purpose of a physical test:
During the WLTP coastdown setting, coastdown times shall be transferred to forces and vice versa by taking into account the applicable test mass plus the effect of rotational mass (3 % of the sum of the MRO and 25 kg). For the NEDC coastdown setting, coastdown times shall be transferred to forces and vice versa by neglecting the effect of rotational mass (only the NEDC vehicle inertia calculated in point 2.3.1 is used).
