Technical report on future Euro6 On-Board-Diagnostic requirements
Ricardo has published an independent report and assessment of information to support the necessary legislative process to confirm the future Euro 6 OBD thresholds. The capability of sensor technology and technology currently under development to achieve reliable and robust detection of failures at the Euro 6 OBD thresholds which have been proposed by the Commission, but which the Commission notes should be subject to impact assessment by September 2010, are assessed in the report.
Improving Air Quality
Engine technologies and exhaust after-treatment systems have slashed pollutant emissions like particles and NOx from cars as well as busses, trucks and vans, boosting air quality in towns and cities.
The European Car Industry and the Environmental
The European vehicle manufacturers are technology leaders and constantly improve the environmental performance of their cars, trucks, buses and coaches.
ACEA Euro VI engine correlation test program
ACEA has recently completed a test programme on a number of prototype European engine-aftertreatment systems to develop an emission correlation from today's ETC test cycle applicable in Euro V to the WHTC test cycle that is under consideration for Euro VI. The results of the program have been presented to the European Commission and are available in the attached document.
