Introduction
The intention of this Regulation is to establish uniform provisions concerning the approval of motor vehicles with regard to
the emissions of light-duty vehicles based on the new World harmonized Light vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP) included in
UN GTR No. 15 and the updated Evaporative Emissions test procedure (Type 4 test) which has been developed in UN GTR
No. 19. It will enable Contracting Parties (CPs) to issue and accept approvals based on these new type approval tests.
The WLTP Type 1 test replaces both the current Type 1 test in UN Regulation No. 83 and UN Regulation No. 101, whilst
the updated Evaporative Emissions test procedure (Type 4 test) replaces that currently in UN Regulation No 83.
In addition, this Regulation includes an update to the Type 5 test for verifying the durability of pollution control devices and
updated On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) requirements. These updates are in order to reflect the changes from the previous
NEDC based Type 1 test to the new WLTP Type 1 test. The 04 series introduces new annexes with requirements relating to
in-vehicle battery durability and a new test for range of Pure Electric Vehicles at low temperatures.
The 04 series of this Regulation covers four sets of requirements – termed Level 1A, Level 1B, Level 1C and Level 2. Levels
1A and 1C are based on a four phase test cycle (Low, Medium, High and Extra-High), Level 1B is based on a three phase test
cycle (Low, Medium and High), with different type 1 limits applying to these different levels whilst Level 2 includes a
harmonised procedure which contains the most stringent procedures/limits which shall be subject to full mutual
recognition. The majority of the regulatory text is applicable to all Levels. Where the requirements are specific to either
Level 1A, Level 1B, Level 1C or Level 2 the relevant sections are labelled accordingly. Levels 1A, 1B and 1C in this series of
amendments cover regional requirements and does not require mutual recognition by other Contracting Parties.
The requirements of Level 1C are identical to those for Level 1A, including those marked in this Regulation as ‘Level 1 A
only’, except where specified otherwise.
A type approval to Level 2 in the latest version of this Regulation shall however be accepted by all CPs applying this
Regulation.
1. Scope
This Regulation provides requirements for four levels of approval. One level requires testing using a 4-phase
WLTC (low, medium, high and extra-high as defined in Annex B1) – this is called Level 1A. A second level
requires testing using a 3-phase WLTC cycle (low, medium and high as defined in Annex B1) – this is called
Level 1B. The third level based on Level 1A is a set of reduced requirements to which a Contracting Party may
accept approvals under specified circumstances. The fourth level is a harmonised set of requirements and is
called Level 2.
Where the requirements in this Regulation apply to either Level 1A, Level 1B or Level 2 only, the Regulatory
text uses "Level 1A only", "Level 1B only" or “Level 2 only” to denote the start of the level specific
requirements.
1.1. Scope for Level 1A and Level 1C;
This Regulation applies to the type approval of vehicles of categories M and N with regard to the WLTP Type
1 1
1 test for emissions of gaseous compounds, particulate matter, particle number and to emissions of carbon
dioxide and fuel consumption and/or the measurement of electric energy consumption and electric range and
to the Type 4 test on evaporative emissions.
In addition, this Regulation lays down rules for verifying the durability of pollution control devices’ On-Board
Diagnostic (OBD) systems, On-Board Fuel Consumption Monitoring (OBFCM) devices, battery durability and
electric range at low ambient temperatures.
At the request of the manufacturer, for vehicles of category N between 3.5 and 5 tonnes maximum mass
2
originating from a type of vehicle of category N , the approval authority may grant an emission type-approval
1
if the vehicle meets the requirements for a type of vehicle of category N .

the Type 4 test on evaporative emissions.
In addition, this Regulation lays down rules for verifying the durability of pollution control devices and
On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) systems, On-Board Fuel Consumption Monitoring (OBFCM) devices and battery
durability.
1.3. Scope for Level 2;

1 1
1 test for emissions of gaseous compounds, particulate matter, particle number and to emissions of carbon
dioxide and fuel consumption and/or the measurement of electric energy consumption and electric range and

In addition, this Regulation lays down rules for verifying the durability of pollution control devices, On-Board
Diagnostic (OBD) systems, On-Board Fuel Consumption Monitoring (OBFCM) devices, battery durability and
electric range at low ambient temperatures.

road load, the criteria in paragraph 6.3.2.2. (a) and paragraph 6.3.2.3. (a) shall apply.
If there is a difference, apart from vehicle mass, rolling resistance and aerodynamics, that has a non-negligible
influence on road load, that vehicle shall not be considered to be part of the family unless approved by the
responsible authority.
6.3.4. Road load matrix family
The road load matrix family may be applied for vehicles with a technically permissible maximum laden mass ≥
3,000 kg.
Vehicles with a technically permissible maximum laden mass ≥ 2,500 kg may be part of the road load matrix
family provided the driver seat R-point height is above 850 mm from the ground.
“R-point” means “R” point or “seating reference point” as defined in paragraph 2.4. of Annex 1 to the
Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3.).
Only vehicles which are identical with respect to the following characteristics may be part of the same road
load matrix family:
(a) Transmission type (e.g. manual, automatic, CVT);
(b) Number of powered axles.
6.3.5. Periodically regenerating systems (Ki) family

(c) The test mass of each vehicle in the family shall be less than or equal to the test mass of the vehicle used
for the Ki demonstration test plus 250 kg.
6.3.6. Gas Fuelled Vehicles (GFV) Family
6.3.6.1. GFVs may be grouped into a family of vehicle types fuelled by LPG or NG/biomethane which are then identified
by a parent vehicle. For vehicles which can also be fuelled by liquid fuels, this grouping only applies when the
vehicle is operated in a gas fuelled mode.
6.3.6.2. A GFV parent vehicle is a vehicle that is selected to act as the vehicle on which the self-adaptability of a fuelling
system is going to be demonstrated, and to which the members of a GFV family refer. It is possible to have more
than one parent vehicle in a GFV family.
6.3.6.3. Member of the GFV family
6.3.6.3.1. Only vehicles which share the following essential characteristics with its GFV parent(s) may be grouped in a
GFV family:
(a) It is produced by the same manufacturer;
(b) It is subject to the same emission limits;
(c) If the gas fuelling system has a central metering for the whole engine:
It has a certified power output between 0.7 and 1.15 times that of the GFV parent vehicle;
(d) If the gas fuelling system has an individual metering per cylinder:
It has a certified power output per cylinder between 0.7 and 1.15 times that of the GFV parent vehicle;
(e) If fitted with a catalyst, it has the same type of catalyst i.e. three-way, oxidation, de-NOx;
(f) It has a gas fuelling system (including the pressure regulator) from the same system manufacturer and of
the same type: induction, vapour injection (single point, multipoint), liquid injection (single point,
multipoint);
(g) This gas fuelling system is controlled by an ECU of the same type and technical specification, containing
the same software principles and control strategy. The vehicle may have a second ECU compared to the
GFV parent vehicle, provided that the ECU is only used to control the injectors, additional shut-off
valves and the data acquisition from additional sensors.
6.3.6.3.2. With regard to requirements of paragraph 6.3.6.3.1. (c) and (d):
In the case where a demonstration shows that two gas-fuelled vehicles could be members of the same family
with the exception of their certified power output, respectively P1 and P2 (P1 < P2), and both are tested as if
were parent vehicles the family relation will be considered valid for any vehicle with a certified power output
between 0.7 P1 and 1.15 P2.
6.3.7. Additional requirements for vehicles fuelled by LPG or NG/biomethane
6.3.7.1. The additional requirements for vehicles fuelled by LPG or NG/biomethane are provided in Annex B6.

Annex B6 for criteria emissions, and with the fuel used for the measurement of the net power in accordance
with UN Regulation No. 85.
6.3.7.4. This paragraph applies to Level 1A only.
Notwithstanding the requirement of paragraph 6.3.7.2., mono-fuel gas vehicles will be regarded for the Type 1
test as vehicles that can only run on a gaseous fuel.
6.3.8. Additional requirements for flex fuel vehicles
6.3.8.1. For flex fuel vehicles, the transition from one reference fuel to another between the tests shall take place
without manual adjustment of the engine settings.

If the vehicle tested does not satisfy the requirements of Annex C3, a further random sample of four vehicles
shall be taken from the same family and also subjected without unjustified delay to the Type 4 test described in
Annex C3.
On request of the manufacturer, for CoP tests described in Annex C3 the Permeability Factor (PF) derived at
Type Approval or the Assigned Permeability Factor (APF) may be applied.
The production shall be deemed to conform if the requirements are met for at least three of these vehicles
within 24 months after the initial failed test has been detected.
8.3.4. For CoP tests described in Annex C3 which are performed on a vehicle which has completed a mileage of less
than 20,000 km a canister which has been aged according to paragraph 5.1. of Annex C3 shall be used. This
can be the original canister from the test vehicle or another canister of identical specification. On request of
the manufacturer, for these tests either the Permeability Factor (PF), as defined in the paragraph 5.2. of Annex
C3 which was established at Type Approval for the evaporative family, or the Assigned Permeability Factor
(APF) also defined in the paragraph 5.2. of Annex C3 shall be applied.
8.3.5. On request of the manufacturer, CoP tests described in Annex C3 may be carried out on a vehicle which has
completed a minimum mileage of 20,000 km up to a maximum of 30,000 km with no modifications to the
vehicle other than those described in the test procedure. When the test is carried out on a vehicle which has
completed a mileage of between 20,000 km and 30,000 km, the canister aging shall be omitted and the
Permeability Factor or Assigned Permeability Factor shall not be applied.
Independent of the accumulated mileage of the vehicle, non-fuel background emission sources (e.g. paint,
adhesives, plastics, fuel/vapour lines, tyres, and other rubber or polymer components) can be eliminated
according to paragraph 6.1. of Annex C3.
8.4. Checking the conformity of the vehicle for On-board Diagnostics (OBD)
This paragraph is applicable to Level 1B and 3-phase WLTP Level 2 only

Appendix 2
Verification of conformity of production for Type 1 test — statistical method
1. This Appendix describes the procedure to be used to verify the production conformity requirements for the
Type 1 test for criteria emissions, CO emissions, fuel efficiency and electric energy consumption, as applicable
2
and in accordance with Table 8/1 of this Regulation, for pure ICE, NOVC-HEV, PEV and OVC-HEV and, where
applicable, to determine the OBFCM device accuracy.
Measurements of the criteria emissions, CO emissions, fuel efficiency and electric energy consumption, as
2
applicable and in accordance with Table 8/1 of this Regulation, shall be carried out on a minimum number of
3 vehicles, and consecutively increase until a pass or fail decision is reached. Where applicable, the OBFCM
device accuracy shall be determined for each of the N tests.
2. Criteria emissions
2.1. Statistical procedure and pass/fail criteria
2.1.1. For Level 1A and the criteria emissions from the 4 phases of a WLTP test in Level 2:
For the total number of tests (N) and the measurement results of the tested vehicles, x , x , … x , the average
1 2 N
X and the variance VAR shall be determined:

N – 1
For OVC-HEV, in case of complete charge-depleting Type 1 test, the average emissions over the complete test of
an individual vehicle shall be considered as a single value x.
i
For each total number of tests, one of the three following decisions can be reached for criteria emissions, based
on the criteria emission limit value L according to Table 1A in paragraph 6.3.10. of this Regulation:
(i) Pass the family if X <A · L – VAR
tests

(ii) Fail the family if X >A · L – N – 3 · VAR
tests 13 L
(iii) Take another measurement if:
� �
VAR N – 3 VAR
A · L – ≤ X ≤ A · L – ·
L tests 13 L
For the measurement of criteria emissions the factor A is set at 1.05.
2.1.2. For Level 1B and the criteria emissions from the first 3 phases of a WLTP test in Level 2:
Case A: the manufacturer's production standard deviation is satisfactory.
With a minimum sample size of 3, the sampling procedure is set so that the probability of a lot passing a test
with 40 per cent of the production defective is 0.95 (producer's risk = 5 per cent) while the probability of a lot
being accepted with 65 per cent of the production defective is 0.1 (consumer's risk = 10 per cent).
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 65/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
For each of the criteria emissions given in Table 1B of paragraph 6.3.10. of this Regulation, the following
procedure is used (see Figure 8/1 in paragraph 8.2.3.2. of this Regulation) where:
L = the natural logarithm of the limit value for the criteria emission,
x = the natural logarithm of the measurement for the i-th vehicle of the sample,
i
s = an estimate of the production standard deviation (after taking the natural logarithm of the
measurements),
n = the current sample number.
Compute for the sample the test statistic quantifying the sum of the standard deviations from the limit and
defined as:
If the test statistic is greater than the pass decision number for the sample size given in Table A2/1, the criteria
emission is passed;
If the test statistic is less than the fail decision number for the sample size given in Table A2/1, the pollutant is
failed; otherwise, an additional vehicle is tested and the calculation reapplied to the sample with a sample size
one unit greater.

Case B: the manufacturer's evidence of production standard deviation is either not satisfactory or not available.
With a minimum sample size of 3, the sampling procedure is set so that the probability of a lot passing a test
with 40 per cent of the production defective is 0.95 (producer's risk = 5 per cent) while the probability of a lot
being accepted with 65 per cent of the production defective is 0.1 (consumer's risk = 10 per cent).
The measurements of the criteria emissions given in Table 1B of paragraph 6.3.10. of this Regulation are
considered to be log normally distributed and shall first be transformed by taking their natural logarithms. Let
m and m denote the minimum and maximum sample sizes respectively (m = 3 and m = 32) and let n denote

Run-in test procedure to determine run-in factors
1. Description of test procedure for the determination of the run-in factors
1.1. The run-in test procedure shall be conducted by the manufacturer, who shall not make any adjustments to the
test vehicles that have an impact on the criteria emissions, CO emissions, fuel efficiency and electric energy
2
consumption. The hardware and relevant ECU calibration of the test vehicle shall conform to the type
approval vehicle. All the relevant hardware that has an impact on the criteria emissions, CO emissions, fuel
2
efficiency and electric energy consumption shall have had no operation prior to the run-in test procedure.
1.2. The test vehicle shall be configured as vehicle H within the CoP family.
If the CoP family has multiple interpolation families, the test vehicle shall be configured as vehicle H of the
interpolation family with the highest expected production volume within the CoP family. At the request of the
manufacturer, and with approval of the responsible authority a different test vehicle may be selected.
1.2.1. Extension of run-in factor
At the request of the vehicle manufacturer and with approval by the responsible authority, the derived run-in
factor for CO emissions, criteria emissions, fuel efficiency and electric energy consumption can be extended
2
to other CoP families.
The vehicle manufacturer shall provide evidence on the justification and technical criteria for merging these
COP families, ensuring that there is a large similarity between those families.
1.3. The test vehicle shall be a new vehicle, or a used test vehicle for which at least all of the following components
are newly installed simultaneously:
(a) Internal combustion engine;
(b) Driveline components (at least, but not limited to, transmission, tyre, axles, etc.);
(c) Brake components;
(d) For Level 1A and Level 2 only: REESSs for EVs;
(e) For Level 1A and Level 2 only: Exhaust system;
and any other component that has a non-negligible influence on criteria emissions, CO emissions, fuel
2
efficiency and electric energy consumption.
For the new vehicle, or the used vehicle for which the above mentioned components have been replaced, the
system odometer of the test vehicle D in km shall be recorded.
s
1.4. At the request of the manufacturer and with approval by the responsible authority, it is allowed to perform the
run-in procedure on multiple test vehicles. In this case, the valid test results of all tested vehicles shall be
considered for the determination of the run-in factors.
1.5. Chassis dynamometer setting
1.5.1. The chassis dynamometer shall be set to the target road load for the test vehicle, according to the procedure
specified in paragraph 7. of Annex B4.
The chassis dynamometer shall be set independently prior to each test before the run-in mileage accumulation
and shall be set once for the post-run-in tests after the run-in mileage accumulation.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 75/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
1.5.2. For Level 1B only:
It is allowed to apply the same dynamometer setting value which was generated during type approval testing
for all testing.
1.6. Before the run-in, the test vehicle shall be tested according to the Type 1 test procedure specified in Annex B6
or Annex B8. The test shall be repeated until three valid test results have been obtained. Drive trace indexes
shall be calculated according to paragraph 7. of Annex B7 and these shall fulfil the criteria specified in
paragraph 2.6.8.3.1.4. of Annex B6. The system odometer setting Di shall be recorded prior to each test.
For Level 1A and Level 2 only:
The signal of the acceleration control position shall be recorded during all tests at a sampling frequency of
10 Hz. It is allowed to use the OBD acceleration control position signal for this purpose. The responsible
authority may request the manufacturer to evaluate this signal to ensure that the test result is performed
correctly.
1.7. After the initial tests, the test vehicle shall be run-in under normal driving conditions. OVC-HEVs shall be
driven predominantly in charge-sustaining operating conditions. The driving pattern, test conditions and fuel
during the run-in shall be in accordance with the manufacturer’s engineering judgement. The run-in distance
shall be less than or equivalent to the distance driven during the run-in of the vehicle which was tested for the
type approval of the interpolation family, in accordance with paragraph 2.3.3. of Annex B6 or paragraph 2. of
Annex B8.
1.8. After the run-in, the test vehicle shall be tested according to the Type 1 test procedure specified in Annex B6 or
Annex B8. The test shall be repeated until the following number of valid test results have been obtained:
For Level 1A, Level 1B and Level 2 criteria emissions: three tests
For Level 1B fuel efficiency and/or electric energy consumption: two tests
Drive trace indexes shall be calculated according to paragraph 7. of Annex B7 and these shall fulfil the criteria
specified in paragraph 2.6.8.3.1.4. of Annex B6.
These tests shall be performed in the same test cell as used for the tests prior to the run-in and by applying the
same chassis dynamometer setting method. If this is not possible, the manufacturer shall justify the reason for
using a different test cell. The system odometer setting D in km shall be recorded prior to each test.
i
1.9. For Level 1A and Level 2 only:
For the determination of the run-in factor for the CO emissions, the coefficients C and C in the following
2 RI const
equation shall be calculated by a least squares regression analysis to four significant digits on all valid tests
before and after the run-in:
M ¼C · lnðD – DÞ + C

Appendix 6
Requirements for vehicles that use a reagent for the exhaust after-treatment system
1. This appendix sets out the requirements for vehicles that rely on the use of a reagent for the after-treatment
system in order to reduce emissions. Every reference in this appendix to 'reagent tank' shall be understood as
also applying to other containers in which a reagent is stored.
For Level 1A and 4-phase WLTP in Level 2 only:
For the purpose of type-approval the manufacturer shall provide the granting approval authority with a signed
declaration of compliance with the reagent requirements. This declaration of compliance replaces the
requirements for testing in accordance with this Appendix at type-approval.
A template for the manufacturer's declaration of compliance with the reagent requirements is laid down in
Appendix 1 of Annex A2.
1.1. The capacity of the reagent tank shall be such that a full reagent tank does not need to be replenished over an
average driving range of 5 full fuel tanks providing the reagent tank can be easily replenished (e.g. without the
use of tools and without removing vehicle interior trim. The opening of an interior flap, in order to gain access
for the purpose of reagent replenishment, shall not be understood as the removal of interior trim). If the reagent
tank is not considered to be easy to replenish as described above, the minimum reagent tank capacity shall be at
least equivalent to an average driving distance of 15 full fuel tanks. However, in the case of the option in
paragraph 3.5., where the manufacturer chooses to start the warning system at a distance which may not be less
than 2,400 km before the reagent tank becomes empty, the above restrictions on a minimum reagent tank
capacity shall not apply.
1.2. In the context of this appendix, the term "average driving distance" shall be taken to be derived from the fuel or
reagent consumption during a Type 1 test for the driving distance of a fuel tank and the driving distance of a
reagent tank respectively.
2. Reagent indication
2.1. The vehicle shall include a specific indicator on the dashboard that informs the driver when reagent levels are
below the threshold values specified in paragraph 3.5.
3. Driver warning system
3.1. The vehicle shall include a warning system consisting of visual alarms that informs the driver when an
abnormality is detected in the reagent dosing, e.g. when emissions are too high, the reagent level is low, reagent
dosing is interrupted, or the reagent is not of a quality specified by the manufacturer. The warning system may
also include an audible component to alert the driver.
3.2. The warning system shall escalate in intensity as the reagent approaches empty. It shall culminate in a driver
notification that cannot be easily defeated or ignored. It shall not be possible to turn off the system until the
reagent has been replenished.
3.3. The visual warning shall display a message indicating a low level of reagent. The warning shall not be the same as
the warning used for the purposes of OBD or other engine maintenance. The warning shall be sufficiently clear
for the driver to understand that the reagent level is low (e.g. "urea level low", "AdBlue level low", or
"reagent low").
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 87/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
3.4. The warning system does not initially need to be continuously activated, however the warning shall escalate so
that it becomes continuous as the level of the reagent approaches the point where the driver inducement system
in paragraph 8. comes into effect. An explicit warning shall be displayed (e.g. "fill up urea"', "fill up AdBlue", or
"fill up reagent"). The continuous warning system may be temporarily interrupted by other warning signals
providing that they are important safety related messages.
3.5. The warning system shall activate at a distance equivalent to a driving range of at least 2,400 km in advance of
the reagent tank becoming empty, or at the choice of the manufacturer at the latest when the level of reagent in
the tank reaches one of the following levels:
(a) A level expected to be sufficient for driving 150 per cent of an average driving range with a complete tank
of fuel; or
(b) 10 per cent of the capacity of the reagent tank,
whichever occurs earlier.
4. Identification of incorrect reagent
4.1. The vehicle shall include a means of determining that a reagent corresponding to the characteristics declared by
the manufacturer and recorded in Annex A1 is present on the vehicle.
4.2. If the reagent in the storage tank does not correspond to the minimum requirements declared by the
manufacturer the driver warning system in paragraph 3. shall be activated and shall display a message indicating
an appropriate warning (e.g. "incorrect urea detected", "incorrect AdBlue detected", or "incorrect reagent
detected"). If the reagent quality is not rectified within 50 km of the activation of the warning system then the
driver inducement requirements of paragraph 8. shall apply.
5. Reagent consumption monitoring
5.1. The vehicle shall include a means of determining reagent consumption and providing off-board access to
consumption information.
5.2. Average reagent consumption and average demanded reagent consumption by the engine system shall be
available via the serial port of the standard diagnostic connector. Data shall be available over the previous
complete 2,400 km period of vehicle operation.
5.3. In order to monitor reagent consumption, at least the following parameters within the vehicle shall be
monitored:
(a) The level of reagent in the on-vehicle storage tank; and
(b) The flow of reagent or injection of reagent as close as technically possible to the point of injection into an
exhaust after-treatment system.
5.4. A deviation of more than 50 per cent between the average reagent consumption and the average demanded
reagent consumption by the engine system over a period of 30 minutes of vehicle operation shall result in the
activation of the driver warning system in paragraph 3., which shall display a message indicating an appropriate
warning (e.g. "urea dosing malfunction", "AdBlue dosing malfunction", or "reagent dosing malfunction"). If the
reagent consumption is not rectified within 50 km of the activation of the warning system then the driver
inducement requirements of paragraph 8. shall apply.
88/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
5.5. In the case of interruption in reagent dosing activity the driver warning system as referred to in paragraph 3.
shall be activated, which shall display a message indicating an appropriate warning. Where the reagent dosing
interruption is initiated by the engine system because the vehicle operating conditions are such that the vehicle's
emission performance does not require reagent dosing, the activation of the driver warning system as referred to
in paragraph 3. may be omitted, provided that the manufacturer has clearly informed the approval authority
when such operating conditions apply. If the reagent dosing is not rectified within 50 km of the activation of
the warning system then the driver inducement requirements of paragraph 8. shall apply.
6. Monitoring NOx emissions
6.1. As an alternative to the monitoring requirements referred to in paragraphs 4. and 5., manufacturers may use
exhaust gas sensors directly to sense excess NOx levels in the exhaust.
6.2. The manufacturer shall demonstrate that use of the sensors referred to in paragraph 6.1. and any other sensors
on the vehicle, results in the activation of the driver warning system as referred to in paragraph 3., the display of
a message indicating an appropriate warning (e.g. “emissions too high — check urea”, “emissions too high —
check AdBlue”, “emissions too high — check reagent”), and the activation of the driver inducement system as
referred to in paragraph 8.3., when the situations referred to in paragraphs 4.2., 5.4., or 5.5. occur.
For the purposes of this paragraph these situations are presumed to occur if the applicable NOx OBD threshold
set out in Table 4 of paragraph 6.8.2. is exceeded.
NOx emissions during the test to demonstrate compliance with these requirements shall be no more than
20 per cent higher than the OBD threshold limits.
7. Storage of failure information
7.1. Where reference is made to this paragraph, non-erasable Parameter Identifiers (PID) shall be stored identifying
the reason for and the distance travelled by the vehicle during the inducement system activation. The vehicle
shall retain a record of the PID for at least 800 days or 30,000 km of vehicle operation. The PID shall be made
available via the serial port of a standard diagnostic connector upon request of a generic scan tool in accordance
with the provisions of paragraph 6.5.3.1. of Appendix 1 to Annex C5. The information stored in the PID shall be
linked to the period of cumulated vehicle operation, during which it has occurred, with an accuracy of not less
than 300 days or 10,000 km.
7.2. Malfunctions in the reagent dosing system attributed to technical failures (e.g. mechanical or electrical faults)
shall also be subject to the OBD requirements in paragraph 6.8. of this Regulation and Annex C5.
8. Driver inducement system
8.1. The vehicle shall include a driver inducement system to ensure that the vehicle operates with a functioning
emission control system at all times. The inducement system shall be designed so as to ensure that the vehicle
cannot operate with an empty reagent tank.
8.1.1. The requirement for a driver inducement system shall not apply to vehicles designed and constructed for use by
the rescue services, armed services, civil defence, fire services and forces responsible for maintaining public
order. Permanent deactivation of the driver inducement system for these vehicles shall only be done by the
vehicle manufacturer.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 89/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
8.2. The inducement system shall activate at the latest when the level of reagent in the tank reaches:
(a) In the case that the warning system was activated at least 2,400 km before the reagent tank was expected
to become empty, a level expected to be sufficient for driving the average driving range of the vehicle with
a complete tank of fuel;
(b) In the case that the warning system was activated at the level described in paragraph 3.5.(a), a level
expected to be sufficient for driving 75 per cent of the average driving range of the vehicle with a
complete tank of fuel;
(c) In the case that the warning system was activated at the level described in paragraph 3.5.(b), 5 per cent of
the capacity of the reagent tank;
(d) In the case that the warning system was activated ahead of the levels described in both paragraph 3.5.(a)
and 3.5.(b) but less than 2,400 km in advance of the reagent tank becoming empty, whichever level
described in (b) or (c) of this paragraph occurs earlier.
Where the alternative described in paragraph 6.1. is utilised, the system shall activate when the irregularities
described in paragraphs 4. or 5. or the NOx levels described in paragraph 6.2. have occurred.
The detection of an empty reagent tank and the irregularities mentioned in paragraphs 4., 5., or 6. shall result in
the failure information storage requirements of paragraph 7. taking effect.
8.3. The manufacturer shall select which type of inducement system to install. The options for a system are described
in paragraphs 8.3.1., 8.3.2., 8.3.3. and 8.3.4. (as applicable).
8.3.1. A "no engine restart after countdown" approach allows a countdown of restarts or distance remaining once the
inducement system activates. Engine starts initiated by the vehicle control system, such as start-stop systems, are
not included in this countdown.
8.3.1.1. In the case that the warning system was activated at least 2,400 km before the reagent tank was expected to
become empty, or the irregularities described in paragraphs 4. or 5. or the NOx levels described in
paragraph 6.2. have occurred, engine restarts shall be prevented immediately after the vehicle has travelled a
distance expected to be sufficient for driving the average driving range of the vehicle with a complete tank of
fuel since the activation of the inducement system.
8.3.1.2. In the case that the inducement system was activated at the level described in paragraph 8.2.(b), engine restarts
shall be prevented immediately after the vehicle has travelled a distance expected to be sufficient for driving
75 per cent of the average driving range of the vehicle with a complete tank of fuel since the activation of the
inducement system.
8.3.1.3. In the case that the inducement system was activated at the level described in paragraph 8.2.(c), engine restarts
shall be prevented immediately after the vehicle has travelled a distance expected to be sufficient for driving the
average driving range of the vehicle with 5 per cent of the capacity of the reagent tank, since the activation of
the inducement system.
8.3.1.4. In addition, engine restarts shall be prevented immediately after the reagent tank becomes empty, should this
situation occur earlier than the situations specified in paragraphs 8.3.1.1., 8.3.1.2., or 8.3.1.3.
8.3.2. A "no start after refuelling" system results in a vehicle being unable to start after re-fuelling if the inducement
system has activated.
8.3.3. A "fuel-lockout" approach prevents the vehicle from being refuelled by locking the fuel filler system after the
inducement system activates. The lockout system shall be robust to prevent it being tampered with.
90/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
8.3.4. This paragraph and sub-paragraphs are applicable to Level 1A only
A "performance restriction" approach restricts the speed of the vehicle after the inducement system activates.
The level of speed limitation shall be noticeable to the driver and significantly reduce the maximum speed of the
vehicle. Such limitation shall enter into operation gradually or after an engine start. Shortly before engine restarts
are prevented, the speed of the vehicle shall not exceed 50 km/h.
8.3.4.1. In the case that the warning system was activated at least 2,400 km before the reagent tank was expected to
become empty, or the irregularities described in paragraphs 4. or 5. or the NOx levels described in
paragraph 6.2. have occurred, engine restarts shall be prevented immediately after the vehicle has travelled a
distance expected to be sufficient for driving the average driving range of the vehicle with a complete tank of
fuel since the activation of the inducement system.
8.3.4.2. In the case that the inducement system was activated at the level described in paragraph 8.2.(b), engine restarts
shall be prevented immediately after the vehicle has travelled a distance expected to be sufficient for driving
75 per cent of the average driving range of the vehicle with a complete tank of fuel since the activation of the
inducement system.
8.3.4.3. In the case that the inducement system was activated at the level described in paragraph 8.2.(c), engine restarts
shall be prevented immediately after the vehicle has travelled a distance expected to be sufficient for driving the
average driving range of the vehicle with 5 per cent of the capacity of the reagent tank, since the activation of
the inducement system.
8.3.4.4. In addition, engine restarts shall be prevented immediately after the reagent tank becomes empty, should this
situation occur earlier than the situations specified in paragraphs 8.3.4.1, 8.3.4.2. or 8.3.4.3.
8.4. Once the inducement system has prevented engine restarts, the inducement system shall only be deactivated if
the irregularities specified in paragraphs 4., 5., or 6. have been rectified or if the quantity of reagent added to the
vehicle meets at least one of the following criteria:
(a) Expected to be sufficient for driving 150 per cent of an average driving range with a complete tank of
fuel; or
(b) At least 10 per cent of the capacity of the reagent tank.
After a repair has been carried out to correct a fault where the OBD system has been triggered under
paragraph 7.2., the inducement system may be reinitialised via the OBD serial port (e.g. by a generic scan tool)
to enable the vehicle to be restarted for self-diagnosis purposes. The vehicle shall operate for a maximum of
50 km to enable the success of the repair to be validated. The inducement system shall be fully reactivated if the
fault persists after this validation.
8.5. The driver warning system referred to in paragraph 3. shall display a message indicating clearly:
(a) The number of remaining restarts and/or the remaining distance; and
(b) The conditions under which the vehicle can be restarted.
8.6. Detailed written information fully describing the functional operation characteristics of the driver inducement
system shall be provided to the Type Approval Authority at the time of approval.
8.7. As part of the application for type approval under this Regulation, the manufacturer shall demonstrate the
operation of the driver warning and inducement systems.

OJ L, 26.6.2026
9. Information requirements
9.1. The manufacturer shall provide all owners of new vehicles with clear written information about any exhaust
aftertreatment system which uses a reagent. This information shall state that if such an exhaust aftertreatment
system is not functioning correctly, the driver shall be informed of a problem by the driver warning system and
that the driver inducement system shall consequentially result in the vehicle being unable to start.
9.2. The instructions shall indicate requirements for the proper use and maintenance of vehicles, including the proper
use of consumable reagents.
9.3. The instructions shall specify if consumable reagents have to be replenished by the vehicle driver between
normal maintenance intervals. They shall indicate how the vehicle driver should replenish the reagent tank. The
information shall also indicate a likely rate of reagent consumption for that type of vehicle and how often it
should be replenished.
9.4. The instructions shall specify that use of, and replenishing of, a required reagent of the correct specifications is
mandatory for the vehicle to comply with its certificate of conformity.
9.5. The instructions shall state that it may be a criminal offence to use a vehicle that does not consume any reagent if
it is required for the reduction of emissions.
9.6. The instructions shall explain how the warning system and driver inducement systems work. In addition, the
consequences of ignoring the warning system and not replenishing the reagent shall be explained.
10. Operating conditions of the after-treatment system
Manufacturers shall ensure that any exhaust aftertreatment system which uses a reagent retains its emission
control function during all ambient conditions, especially at low ambient temperatures. This includes taking
measures to prevent the complete freezing of the reagent during parking times of up to 7 days at 258 K (-15 °C)
with the reagent tank 50 per cent full. If the reagent is frozen, the manufacturer shall ensure that the reagent shall
be liquefied and ready for use within 20 minutes of the vehicle being started at 258 K (-15 °C) measured inside
the reagent tank.

8. Cycle modification
This paragraph shall not apply to OVC-HEVs, NOVC-HEVs and NOVC-FCHVs.
However, at the request of the manufacturer and with approval of the responsible authority, the downscaling
procedure described in paragraph 8.2. of this annex may be applied for a NOVC-HEV using the maximum rated
engine power as the maximum vehicle power rating on the applicable WLTP test cycle where the electric
machine does not impact the maximum vehicle power.
258/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
In the case that the voltage of the traction REESS of a NOVC-HEV is less than 60V, the manufacturer shall supply
technical evidence to the responsible authority that the electric machine does not impact the maximum vehicle
power on the applicable WLTP test cycle .
In the case that the voltage of the traction REESS of a NOVC-HEV is equal to or greater than 60V, the
manufacturer shall demonstrate to the responsible authority that the electric machine does not impact the
maximum vehicle power on the applicable WLTP test cycle . Examples of such demonstration could include:
torque/power profiles delivered from the engine and electric machine; electric machine operating envelopes;
power curves; or other appropriate information to demonstrate the power delivery.
8.1. General remarks
Driveability problems may occur for vehicles with power to mass ratios close to the borderlines between Class 1
and Class 2 vehicles, or between Class 2 and Class 3 vehicles, or for very low powered vehicles in Class 1.
Since these problems are related mainly to cycle phases with a combination of high vehicle speed and high
accelerations rather than to the maximum speed of the cycle, the downscaling procedure shall be applied to
improve driveability.
8.2. This paragraph describes the method to modify the cycle profile using the downscaling procedure. The modified
vehicle speed values calculated according to paragraphs 8.2.1. to 8.2.3. shall be rounded according to
paragraph 6.1.8. of this Regulation to 1 place of decimal in a final step.
8.2.1. Downscaling procedure for Class 1 cycles

8.2.2. Downscaling procedure for Class 2 cycles
This paragraph is applicable to Level 1A and Level 2 only;
Since the driveability problems are exclusively related to the extra high speed phases of the Class 2 and Class 3
cycles, the downscaling is related to those time periods of the extra high speed phases where driveability
problems are expected to occur (see Figures A1/15 and A1/16).

8.4. Additional requirements (as applicable)
For different vehicle configurations in terms of test mass and driving resistance coefficients, downscaling shall
be applied individually.
If, after application of downscaling, the vehicle’s maximum speed is lower than the maximum speed of the
cycle, the process described in paragraph 9. of this annex shall be applied with the applicable cycle.
If the vehicle cannot follow the speed trace of the applicable cycle within the tolerance at speeds lower than its
maximum speed, it shall be driven with the accelerator control fully activated during these periods. During
such periods of operation, speed trace violations shall be permitted.
9. Cycle modifications for vehicles with a maximum speed lower than the maximum speed of the cycle specified in
the previous paragraphs of this annex
9.1. General remarks
This paragraph applies to vehicles that are technically able to follow the speed trace of the applicable cycle
specified in paragraph 1. of this annex (base cycle) at speeds lower than its maximum speed, but whose
maximum speed is limited to a value lower than the maximum speed of the base cycle for other reasons. For
the purposes of this paragraph, the applicable cycle specified in paragraph 1. shall be referred to as the "base
cycle" and is used to determine the capped speed cycle.
In the cases where downscaling according to paragraph 8.2. of this annex is applied, the downscaled cycle shall
be used as the base cycle.
The maximum speed of the base cycle shall be referred to as v .

ðv – vÞ
a ¼ j + 1 j ;
j 3:6 × ðt – tÞ

end
The acceleration value at second t (second 1611 for class 1 cycle and second 1800 for class 2 and 3 cycles) may
end
be set to 0 in order to avoid empty cells.
kr is a factor taking the inertial resistances of the drivetrain during acceleration into account and is set to 1.03.
3.2. Determination of engine speeds
For any v < 1:0 km/h, it shall be assumed that the vehicle is standing still and the engine speed shall be set to
j
n .The gear lever shall be placed in neutral with the clutch engaged except 1 second before beginning an
idle
acceleration from standstill where first gear shall be selected with the clutch disengaged.
For each v ≥ 1:0km/h of the cycle trace and each gear i, i ¼ 1to ng the engine speed, n , shall be calculated
j i,j
using the following equation:
n ¼ðn=vÞ × v
i;j i j
The calculation shall be performed with floating point numbers; the results shall not be rounded.
3.3. Selection of possible gears with respect to engine speed
The following gears may be selected for driving the speed trace at v:
j
(a) All gears i < ng where n ≤ n ≤ n ;
vmax min_drive i,j max1
(b) All gears i ≥ ng where n ≤ n ≤ n ;
vmax min_drive i,j max2
(c) Gear 1, if n < n .

OJ L, 26.6.2026
"Undefined" covers any status of the clutch between disengaged and engaged, depending on the individual engine
and transmission design. In such a case, the real engine speed may deviate from the calculated engine speed.
With regard to the definition of n in paragraph 2 (k) the requirements (a) to (c) specified above can be
min_drive
expressed as follows for deceleration phases:
During a deceleration phase, gears with n > 2 shall be used as long as the engine speed does not drop below
gear
n .
min_drive
Gear 2 shall be used during a deceleration phase within a short trip of the cycle (not at the end of a short trip) as
long as the engine speed does not drop below (0.9 × n ).
idle
If the engine speed drops below n , the clutch shall be disengaged.
idle
If the deceleration phase is the last part of a short trip shortly before a stop phase, the second gear shall be used as
long as the engine speed does not drop below n . This requirement shall be applied to the whole deceleration
idle
phase ending at standstill.
A deceleration phase is a time period of more than 2 seconds with a vehicle speed ≥ 1.0 km/h and with strictly
monotonic decrease of vehicle speed (see paragraph 4. of this annex).
3.4. Calculation of available power
For each engine speed value n of the full load power curve as specified in paragraph 2 (h) of this annex the available
k
power, P , shall be calculated using the following equation:
available_k
P ¼ P ðn Þ × ð1 – ðSM + ASMÞÞ
availablek wot k
where:
P is the power available at n at full load condition from the full load power curve;
wot k
SM is a safety margin accounting for the difference between the stationary full load condition power curve
and the power available during transition conditions. SM shall be set to 10 per cent;
ASM is an additional power safety margin which may be applied at the request of the manufacturer.
When requested, the manufacturer shall provide the ASM values (in per cent reduction of the wot power) together
with data sets for P (n) as shown by the example in Table A2/1. Linear interpolation shall be used between
wot
consecutive data points. ASM is limited to 50 per cent.
The application of an ASM requires the approval of the responsible authority.

The lowest final possible gear is i .
min
4. Additional requirements for corrections and/or modifications of gear use
The initial gear selection shall be checked and modified in order to avoid too frequent gearshifts and to ensure
driveability and practicality.
An acceleration phase is a time period of more than 2 seconds with a vehicle speed ≥ 1.0 km/h and with strictly
monotonic increase of vehicle speed. A deceleration phase is a time period of more than 2 seconds with a vehicle
speed ≥ 1.0 km/h and with strictly monotonic decrease of vehicle speed. A constant speed phase is a time period of
more than 2 seconds with a constant vehicle speed ≥ 1.0 km/h.
The end of an acceleration/deceleration phase is determined by the last time sample in which the vehicle speed is
higher/lower than the vehicle speed of the previous time sample. In this context the end of a deceleration phase
could be the beginning of an acceleration phase. In this case the requirements for acceleration phases overrule the
requirements for deceleration phases.

OJ L, 26.6.2026
Corrections and/or modifications shall be made according to the following requirements:
The modification check described in paragraph 4.(a) of this annex shall be applied to the complete cycle trace twice
prior to the application of paragraphs 4.(b) to 4.(f) of this annex.
(a) If a one step higher gear (n+1) is required for only 1 second and the gears before and after are the same (n) or
one of them is one step lower (n – 1), gear (n + 1) shall be corrected to gear n.
Examples:
Gear sequence i - 1, i, i - 1 shall be replaced by:
i - 1, i - 1, i - 1;
Gear sequence i - 1, i, i - 2 shall be replaced by:
i - 1, i - 1, i - 2;
Gear sequence i - 2, i, i - 1 shall be replaced by:
i - 2, i - 1, i - 1.
If, during acceleration or constant speed phases or transitions from constant speed to acceleration or
acceleration to constant speed phases where these phases only contain upshifts, a gear is used for only one
second, the gear in the following second shall be corrected to the gear before, so that a gear is used for at
least 2 seconds.
Examples:
Gear sequence 1, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3 shall be replaced by:
1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3.
Gear sequence 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6 shall be replaced by:
1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6.
This requirement shall not be applied to downshifts during an acceleration phase or if the use of a gear for just
one second follows immediately after such a downshift or if the downshift occurs right at the beginning of an
acceleration phase. In these cases, the downshifts shall be first corrected according to paragraph 4.(b) of this
annex.
Example:
Gear sequence 4, 4, 3, 4, 5, 5, 5, where the first second or the third second determines the start of an
acceleration phase and where paragraph 4.(b) does not apply in the further course of the acceleration phase,
shall be replaced by:
4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5.
However, if the gear at the beginning of an acceleration phase is one step lower than the gear in the previous
second and the gears in the following (up to five) seconds are the same as the gear in the previous second but
followed by a downshift, so that the application of paragraph 4.(c) would correct them to the same gear as at
the beginning of the acceleration phase, the application of paragraph 4.(c) should be performed instead.
Example:
For a speed trace sequence
19.6 18.3 18.0 18.3 18.5 17.9 15.0 km/h
with an initial gear use of
3 3 2 3 3 2 2,
the gears in the fourth and fifth second shall be corrected to a one step lower gear (which would be done by an
application of paragraph 4.(c)) instead of a correction of the gear at the beginning of the acceleration phase
(second three), so that the correction results in the following gear sequence
3 3 2 2 2 2 2
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 277/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
Furthermore, if the gear in the first second of an acceleration phase is the same as the gear in the previous
second and the gear in the following seconds is one step higher, the gear in the 2ndsecond of the acceleration
phase shall be replaced by the gear used in the first second of the acceleration phase.
Example:
For a speed trace sequence
30.9 25.5 21.4 20.2 22.9 26.6 30.2 km/h
with an initial gear use of
3 3 2 2 3 3 3,
the gear in the fifth second (the 2ndsecond of the acceleration phase) shall be corrected to a one step lower
gear in order to ensure the use of a gear within the acceleration phase for at least two seconds, so that the
correction results in the following gear sequence
3 3 2 2 2 3 3
Gears shall not be skipped during upshifts within acceleration phases.
However, an upshift by two gears is permitted at the transition from an acceleration phase to a constant speed
phase if the duration of the constant speed phase exceeds 5 seconds.
(b) If a downshift is required during an acceleration phase or at the beginning of the acceleration phase, the gear
required during this downshift shall be noted (i ). The starting point of a correction procedure is defined by
DS
either the last previous second when i was identified or by the starting point of the acceleration phase if all
DS
time samples before have gears > i . The highest gear of the time samples before the downshift determines
DS
the reference gear i for the downshift. A downshift where i = i – 1 is referred to as a one step downshift,
ref DS ref
a downshift where i = i – 2 is referred to as a two step downshift, a downshift where i = i – 3 is referred
DS ref DS ref
to as a three step downshift. The following check shall then be applied.
(i) One step downshifts
Working forward from the starting point of the correction procedure to the end of the acceleration phase, the
latest occurrence of a 10 second window containing i for either 2 or more consecutive seconds, or 2 or
DS
more individual seconds, shall be identified. The last usage of i in this window defines the end point of the
DS
correction procedure. Between the start and end of the correction period, all requirements for gears greater
than i shall be corrected to a requirement of i .
DS DS
From the end of the correction period (in case of 10 second windows containing i for either 2 or more
DS
consecutive seconds, or 2 or more individual seconds) or from the starting point of the correction procedure
(in case that all 10 second windows contain i only for one second or some 10 second windows contain no
DS
i at all) to the end of the acceleration phase all downshifts with a duration of only one second shall be
DS
removed.
(ii) Two or three step downshifts
Working forward from the starting point of the correction procedure to the end of the acceleration phase, the
latest occurrence of i shall be identified. From the starting point of the correction procedure all
DS
requirements for gears greater than or equal to i up to the latest occurrence of i shall be corrected to
DS DS
(i + 1).
DS

OJ L, 26.6.2026
(iii) One step downshifts and two step and/or three step downshifts
If one step downshifts as well as two step and/or three step downshifts occur during an acceleration phase,
three step downshifts shall be corrected before two or one step downshifts are corrected and two step
downshifts shall be corrected before one step downshifts are corrected. In such cases, the starting point of
the correction procedure for the two or one step downshifts is the second immediately following the end of
the correction period for the three step downshifts and the starting point of the correction procedure for the
one step downshifts is the second immediately following the end of the correction period for the two step
downshifts. If a three step downshift occurs after a one or two step downshift, it shall overrule these
downshifts in the time period before the three step downshift. If a two step downshift occurs after a one step
downshift, it shall overrule the one step downshift in the time period before the two step downshift.

The modification check described in paragraph 4.(c) of this annex shall be applied to the complete cycle trace
twice prior to the application of paragraphs 4.(d) to 4.(f) of this annex.
(c) If gear iis used for a time sequence of 1 to 5 seconds and the gear prior to this sequence is one step lower and
the gear after this sequence is one or two steps lower than within this sequence or the gear prior to this
sequence is two steps lower and the gear after this sequence is one step lower than within the sequence, the

(d) No upshift to a higher gear shall be performed within a deceleration phase.
(e) No upshift to a higher gear at the transition from an acceleration or constant speed phase to a deceleration
phase shall be performed if one of the gears in the first two seconds following the end of the deceleration
phase is lower than the upshifted gear or is gear 0.
Example:
If v ≤ v and v < v and gear i = 4 and gear (i + 1 = 5) and gear (i + 2 = 5), then gear (i + 1) and gear (i + 2)
i i+1 i+2 i+1
shall be set to 4 if the gear for the phase following the deceleration phase is gear 4 or lower. For all following
cycle trace points with gear 5 within the deceleration phase, the gear shall also be set to 4. If the gear following
the deceleration phase is gear 5, an upshift shall be performed.
If there is an upshift during the transition and the initial deceleration phase by 2 gears, an upshift by 1 gear
shall be performed instead. In this case, no further modifications shall be performed in the following gear use
checks.
(f) Other gear modifications for deceleration phases
A downshift to first gear is not permitted during deceleration phases. If such a downshift would be necessary
in the last part of a short trip just before a stop phase, since the engine speed would drop below n in 2nd
idle
gear, gear 0 shall be used instead and the gear lever shall be placed in neutral and the clutch shall be engaged.
If the first gear is required in a time period of at least 2 seconds immediately before a deceleration to stop, this
gear should be used until the first sample of the deceleration phase. For the rest of the deceleration phase, gear
0 shall be used and the gear lever shall be placed in neutral and the clutch shall be engaged.
If during a deceleration phase the duration of a gear period (a time sequence with constant gear) between two
gear periods of 3 seconds or more is only 1 second, it shall be replaced by gear 0 and the clutch shall be
disengaged.
If during a deceleration phase the duration of a gear period between two gear periods of 3 seconds or more is
2 seconds, it shall be replaced by gear 0 for the 1stsecond and for the 2ndsecond with the gear that follows
after the 2 second period. The clutch shall be disengaged for the 1stsecond.
Example: A gear sequence 5, 4, 4, 2 shall be replaced by 5, 0, 2, 2.
This requirement shall only be applied if the gear that follows after the 2 second period is > 0.
If several gear periods with durations of 1 or 2 seconds follow one another, corrections shall be performed as
follows:
A gear sequence i, i, i, i - 1, i - 1, i - 2 or i, i, i, i - 1, i - 2, i - 2 shall be changed to i, i, i, 0, i - 2, i - 2.
A gear sequence such as i, i, i, i - 1, i - 2, i - 3 or i, i, i, i - 2, i - 2, i - 3 or other possible combinations shall be
changed to i, i, i, 0, i - 3, i - 3.
This change shall also be applied to gear sequences where the acceleration is ≥ 0 for the first 2 seconds and <
0 for the 3rdsecond or where the acceleration is ≥ 0 for the last 2 seconds.
For extreme transmission designs, it is possible that gear periods with durations of 1 or 2 seconds following
one another may last up to 7 seconds. In such cases, the correction above shall be complemented by the
following correction requirements in a second step.
A gear sequence j, 0, i, i, i - 1, k with j > (i + 1) and k ≤ (i – 1) but k > 0 shall be changed to j, 0, i - 1, i - 1, i - 1,
k, if gear (i – 1) is one or two steps below i for second 3 of this sequence (one after gear 0).
max
If gear (i – 1) is more than two steps below i for second 3 of this sequence, a gear sequence j, 0, i, i, i - 1, k
max
with j > (i + 1) and k ≤ (i –1) but k > 0 shall be changed to j, 0, 0, k, k, k.
286/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
A gear sequence j, 0, i, i, i-2, k with j > (i + 1) and k ≤ (i – 2) but k > 0 shall be changed to j, 0, i - 2, i - 2 , i - 2,
k, if gear (i – 2) is one or two steps below i for second 3 of this sequence (one after gear 0).
max
If gear (i – 2) is more than two steps below i for second 3 of this sequence, a gear sequence j, 0, i, i, i - 2, k
max
with j > (i + 1) and k ≤ (i – 2) but k > 0 shall be changed to j, 0, 0, k, k, k.
In all cases specified above in this sub-paragraph (paragraph 4.(f) of this annex), the clutch disengagement
(gear 0) for 1 second is used in order to avoid too high engine speeds for this second. If this is not an issue
and, if requested by the manufacturer, it is allowed to use the lower gear of the following second directly
instead of gear 0 for downshifts of up to 3 steps. The use of this option shall be recorded.
If the deceleration phase is the last part of a short trip shortly before a stop phase and the last gear > 0 before
the stop phase is used only for a period of up to 2 seconds, gear 0 shall be used instead and the gear lever shall
be placed in neutral and the clutch shall be engaged.
Examples: A gear sequence of 4, 0, 2, 2, 0 for the last 5 seconds before a stop phase shall be replaced by 4, 0,
0, 0, 0. A gear sequence of 4, 3, 3, 0 for the last 4 seconds before a stop phase shall be replaced by 4, 0, 0, 0.
5. Final requirements
(a) Paragraphs 4.(a) to 4.(f) inclusive of this annex shall be applied sequentially, scanning the complete cycle trace
in each case. Since modifications to paragraphs 4.(a) to 4.(f) inclusive of this annex may create new gear use
sequences, these new gear sequences shall be checked twice and modified if necessary.
(b) After the application of paragraph 4.(b) of this annex, a downshift by more than one gear could occur at the
transition from a deceleration or constant speed phase to an acceleration phase.
In this case, the gear for the last sample of the deceleration or constant speed phase shall be replaced by gear 0
and the clutch shall be disengaged. If the “suppress gear 0 during downshifts” option according to paragraph
4.(f) of this annex is chosen, the gear of the following second (first second of the acceleration phase) shall be
used instead of gear 0.
(c) In order to enable the assessment of the correctness of the calculation, the checksum of v*gear for v ≥
1.0 km/h, rounded according to paragraph 6.1.8. of this Regulation to four places of decimal, shall be
calculated and recorded.
6. Calculation tools
Examples of gear shift calculating tools can be found in the UN GTR No. 15 webpage on the UNECE website.(1)FThe
following tools are provided:
(a) ACCESS based tool;
(b) Matlab code tool;
(c) NET framework tool;
(d) Python based tool.
These tools were validated by the comparison of calculation results between the ACCESS tool, the Matlab code, the
.NET framework code and the Python based tool for 115 different vehicle configurations supplemented by
additional calculations for 7 of them with additional options like "apply speed cap" "suppress downscaling",
"choose other vehicle class cycle" and "choose individual n values".
min_drive
The 115 vehicle configurations cover extreme technical designs for transmission and engines and all vehicle classes.
All four tools deliver identical results with respect to gear use and clutch operation and although only the text in
Annexes B1 and B2 is legally binding the tools have achieved a status that qualifies them as reference tools.

ANNEX B4
Road load and dynamometer setting
1. Scope
This annex describes the determination of the road load of a test vehicle and the transfer of that road load to a
chassis dynamometer.
2. Terms and definitions
2.1. For the purpose of this document, the terms and definitions given in paragraph 3. of this Regulation shall
have primacy. Where definitions are not provided in paragraph 3. of this Regulation, definitions given in
ISO 3833:1977 "Road vehicles -- Types -- Terms and definitions" shall apply.
2.2. Reference speed points shall start at 20 km/h in incremental steps of 10 km/h and with the highest reference
speed according to the following provisions:
(a) The highest reference speed point shall be 130 km/h or the reference speed point immediately above

the request of the manufacturer and with approval of the responsible authority, the highest reference
speed may be increased to the reference speed point immediately above the maximum speed of the
next higher phase, but no higher than 130 km/h; in this case road load determination and chassis
dynamometer setting shall be done with the same reference speed points;
(b) If a reference speed point applicable for the cycle plus 14 km/h is more than or equal to the maximum
vehicle speed v , this reference speed point shall be excluded from the coastdown test and from
max
chassis dynamometer setting. The next lower reference speed point shall become the highest reference
speed point for the vehicle.
2.3. Unless otherwise specified, a cycle energy demand shall be calculated according to paragraph 5. of Annex B7
over the target speed trace of the applicable driving cycle.
2.4. f , f , f are the road load coefficients of the road load equation F = f + f × v + f × v2determined according to

Coastdown times shall be transferred to forces and vice versa by taking into account the applicable test mass
plus m. This shall apply to measurements on the road as well as on a chassis dynamometer.
r
2.5.3. Application of rotational mass for the inertia setting
If the vehicle is tested on a dynamometer in 4WD operation, the equivalent inertia mass of the chassis
dynamometer shall be set to the applicable test mass.

approximately the same as that of the vehicle with its mass in running order. In the case of Category N
vehicles or passenger vehicles derived from Category N vehicles, the additional masses shall be located in a
representative manner and shall be justified to the responsible authority upon their request. The weight
distribution of the vehicle shall be recorded and shall be used for any subsequent road load determination
testing.

measured according to paragraph 3.1. of this annex. Only those atmospheric conditions measured during
coastdown time measurements and/or torque measurement shall be used for checking data validity and
corrections.
4.1.1.1. Permissible wind conditions when using stationary anemometry and on-board anemometry
4.1.1.1.1. Permissible wind conditions when using stationary anemometry

direction), the wind speed and direction shall be measured at the opposite parts of the test track.
The wind conditions during run pairs shall meet all of the following criteria:
(a) Wind speed shall be less than 5 m/s over a 5 second moving average period;
(b) Peak wind speeds shall not exceed 8 m/s for more than 2 consecutive seconds;

4.2.1.1. Requirements for test vehicle selection
310/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
4.2.1.1.1. Without using the interpolation method
A test vehicle (vehicle H) with the combination of road load relevant characteristics (i.e. mass, aerodynamic
drag and tyre rolling resistance) producing the highest cycle energy demand shall be selected from the family
(see paragraphs 6.3.2. and 6.3.3. of this Regulation).
If the aerodynamic influence of the different wheels within one interpolation family is not known, the
selection shall be based on the highest expected aerodynamic drag. As a guideline, the highest aerodynamic
drag may be expected for wheels with (a) the largest width, (b) the largest diameter, and (c) the most open
structure design (in that order of importance).
The wheel selection shall be performed additional to the requirement of the highest cycle energy demand.
4.2.1.1.2. Using an interpolation method
At the request of the manufacturer, an interpolation method may be applied.
In this case, two test vehicles shall be selected from the family complying with the respective family
requirement.
Test vehicle H shall be the vehicle producing the higher, and preferably highest, cycle energy demand of that
selection, test vehicle L the one producing the lower, and preferably lowest, cycle energy demand of that
selection.
All items of optional equipment and/or body shapes that are chosen not to be considered when applying the
interpolation method shall be identical for both test vehicles H and L such that these items of optional
equipment produce the highest combination of the cycle energy demand due to their road load relevant
characteristics (i.e. mass, aerodynamic drag and tyre rolling resistance).
In the case where individual vehicles can be supplied with a complete set of standard wheels and tyres and in
addition a complete set of snow tyres (marked with 3 Peaked Mountain and Snowflake – 3PMS) with or
without wheels, the additional wheels/tyres shall not be considered as optional equipment.
4.2.1.1.2.1. The following requirements between vehicles H and L shall be fulfilled for the road load relevant
characteristics:
(a) To allow extrapolating road load coefficients:
(i) If f is below f* or above f as defined in paragraph 3.2.3.2.2.4. of Annex B7 while
0_ind 0_L 0_H
performing the calculation in paragraph 3.2.3.2.2.4. of Annex B7, the following minimum
differences between H and L are required:
Rolling resistance of at least 1.0 kg/tonne and a mass of at least 30 kg; in case of RR between 0
and 1.0, the minimum of the mass difference is replaced with 100 kg instead of 30 kg;
(ii) If f is below f* or above f as defined in paragraph 3.2.3.2.2.4. of Annex B7 while
2_ind 2_L 2_H
performing the calculation in paragraph 3.2.3.2.2.4. of Annex B7, the following minimum
difference between H and L is required:
Aerodynamic drag (C × A) of at least 0.05 m2. If the manufacturer can demonstrate that the
D f
results after an extrapolation are still rational, the minimum criteria in points (i) to (iii) above can
be waived.
(b) For each road load characteristic (i.e. mass, aerodynamic drag and tyre rolling resistance) as well as for
the road load coefficients f and f , the value of vehicle H shall be higher than that of vehicle L,
0 2
otherwise the worst case shall be applied for that road load relevant characteristic. At the request of the
manufacturer and upon approval by the responsible authority the requirements of this point can be
waived.

OJ L, 26.6.2026
4.2.1.1.2.2. To achieve a sufficient difference between vehicle H and vehicle L on a particular road load relevant
characteristic, or in order to fulfil criteria of paragraph 4.2.1.1.2.1. of this annex, the manufacturer may
artificially worsen vehicle H, e.g. by applying a higher test mass.

4.2.1.2.1. Requirements for applying the interpolation family without using the interpolation method
For the criteria defining an interpolation family, see paragraph 6.3.2. of this Regulation.
4.2.1.2.2. Requirements for applying the interpolation family using the interpolation method are:
(a) Fulfilling the interpolation family criteria listed in paragraph 6.3.2. of this Regulation;
(b) Fulfilling the requirements in paragraphs 2.3.1. and 2.3.2. of Annex B6;
(c) Performing the calculations in paragraph 3.2.3.2. of Annex B7.
4.2.1.2.3. Requirements for applying the road load family
4.2.1.2.3.1. At the request of the manufacturer and upon fulfilling the criteria of paragraph 6.3.3. of this Regulation, the
road load values for vehicles H and L of an interpolation family shall be calculated.
4.2.1.2.3.2. Test vehicles H and L as defined in paragraph 4.2.1.1.2. of this annex shall be referred to as H and L for the

purpose of the road load family.
4.2.1.2.3.3. The difference in cycle energy demand between H and L of the road load family shall be at least 4 per cent
R R
and shall not exceed 35 per cent based on H over a complete WLTC Class 3 cycle.

If more than one transmission is included in the road load family, a transmission with the highest power
losses shall be used for road load determination.
4.2.1.2.3.4. If the road load delta of the vehicle option causing the friction difference is determined according to
paragraph 6.8. of this annex, a new road load family shall be calculated which includes the road load delta in

"Applying the road load
family" and application of
paragraph 4.2.1.3.1. of
this annex.
4.2.1.3.1. Deriving road loads of an interpolation family from a road load family
Road loads H and/or L shall be determined according to this annex.
R R
The road load of vehicle H (and L) of an interpolation family within the road load family shall be calculated
according to paragraphs 3.2.3.2.2. to 3.2.3.2.2.4. inclusive of Annex B7 by:
(a) Using H and L of the road load family instead of H and L as inputs for the equations;
R R
(b) Using the road load parameters (i.e. test mass, Δ(C ×A) compared to vehicle L , and tyre rolling
D f R
resistance) of vehicle H (or L) of the interpolation family as inputs for the individual vehicle;
(c) Repeating this calculation for each H and L vehicle of every interpolation family within the road load
family.
The road load interpolation shall only be applied on those road load-relevant characteristics that were
identified to be different between test vehicle L and H . For other road load-relevant characteristic(s), the
R R
value of vehicle H shall apply.
R
H and L of the interpolation family may be derived from different road load families. If that difference
between these road load families comes from applying the delta method, refer to paragraph 4.2.1.2.3.4. of
this annex.
4.2.1.4. Application of the road load matrix family
A vehicle that fulfils the criteria of paragraph 6.3.4. of this Regulation that is:
(a) Representative of the intended series of complete vehicles to be covered by the road load matrix family
in terms of estimated worst C value and body shape; and
D
(b) Representative of the intended series of vehicles to be covered by the road load matrix family in terms
of estimated average of the mass of optional equipment
shall be used to determine the road load.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 313/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
In the case that no representative body shape for a complete vehicle can be determined, the test vehicle shall
be equipped with a square box with rounded corners with radii of maximum of 25 mm and a width equal to
the maximum width of the vehicles covered by the road load matrix family, and a total height of the test
vehicle of 3.0 m ±0.1 m, including the box.
The manufacturer and the responsible authority shall agree which vehicle test model is representative.
The values of the vehicle parameters test mass, tyre rolling resistance and frontal area of both a vehicle H and
M
L shall be determined in such a way that vehicle H produces the highest cycle energy demand and vehicle
M M
L the lowest cycle energy from the road load matrix family. The manufacturer and the responsible authority
M
shall agree on the vehicle parameters for vehicles H and L .
M M
The road load of all individual vehicles of the road load matrix family, including H and L , shall be calculated
M M
according to paragraph 5.1. of this annex.
4.2.1.5. Movable aerodynamic body parts
Movable aerodynamic body parts on the test vehicles shall operate during road load determination as
intended under WLTP Type 1 test conditions (test temperature, vehicle speed and acceleration range, engine
load, etc.).
Every vehicle system that dynamically modifies the vehicle’s aerodynamic drag (e.g. vehicle height control)
shall be considered to be a movable aerodynamic body part. Appropriate requirements shall be added if
future vehicles are equipped with movable aerodynamic items of optional equipment whose influence on
aerodynamic drag justifies the need for further requirements.
4.2.1.6. Weighing
Before and after the road load determination procedure, the selected vehicle shall be weighed, including the
test driver and equipment, to determine the arithmetic average mass m . The mass of the vehicle shall be
av
greater than or equal to the test mass of vehicle H or of vehicle L at the start of the road load determination
procedure.
4.2.1.7. Test vehicle configuration

(f) to avoid unrepresentative parasitic drag, brake adjustment.
4.2.1.8.3. Wheel alignment
Toe and camber shall be set to the maximum deviation from the longitudinal axis of the vehicle in the range
defined by the manufacturer. If a manufacturer prescribes values for toe and camber for the vehicle, these
values shall be used. At the request of the manufacturer, values with higher deviations from the longitudinal
axis of the vehicle than the prescribed values may be used. The prescribed values shall be the reference for all
maintenance during the lifetime of the vehicle.
Other adjustable wheel alignment parameters (such as caster) shall be set to the values recommended by the
manufacturer. In the absence of recommended values, they shall be set to the arithmetic average of the range
defined by the manufacturer.
Such adjustable parameters and set values shall be recorded.
4.2.1.8.4. Closed panels
During the road load determination, the engine compartment cover, luggage compartment cover, manually-
operated movable panels and all windows shall be closed.
4.2.1.8.5. Vehicle coastdown mode
If the determined dynamometer settings cannot meet the criteria described in paragraphs 8.1.3. or 8.2.3. of
this annex due to non-reproducible forces, the vehicle shall be equipped with a vehicle coastdown mode. The
vehicle coastdown mode shall be approved and its use shall be recorded by the responsible authority.

(*) Only for 4 phase WLTP calculation of individual vehicles: In case the actual RRC value is lower than this value, the
actual rolling resistance value of the tyre or any higher value up to the RRC value indicated here shall be used for
interpolation.
If the interpolation method is applied to rolling resistance, the actual rolling resistance values for the tyres
fitted to the test vehicles L and H shall be used as input for the interpolation method. For an individual
vehicle within an interpolation family, the RRC value for the energy efficiency class of the tyres fitted shall be
used.
In the case where individual vehicles can be supplied with a complete set of standard wheels and tyres and in
addition a complete set of snow tyres (marked with 3 Peaked Mountain and Snowflake – 3PMS) with or
without wheels, the additional wheels/tyres shall not be considered as optional equipment.
4.2.2.2. Tyre condition
Tyres used for the test shall:
(a) Not be older than 2 years after the production date;
(b) Not be specially conditioned or treated (e.g. heated or artificially aged), with the exception of grinding in
the original shape of the tread;
(c) Be run-in on a road for at least 200 km before road load determination;
(d) Have a constant tread depth before the test between 100 and 80 per cent of the original tread depth at
any point over the full tread width of the tyre.
After measurement of tread depth, the driving distance shall be limited to 500 km. If 500 km are exceeded,
the tread depth shall be measured again.
4.2.2.3. Tyre pressure
The front and rear tyres shall be inflated to the lower limit of the tyre pressure range for the respective axle for
the selected tyre at the coastdown test mass, as specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
4.2.2.3.1. Tyre pressure adjustment
If the difference between ambient and soak temperature is more than 5 °C, the tyre pressure shall be adjusted
as follows:
(a) The tyres shall be soaked for more than 1 hour at 10 per cent above the target pressure;
316/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
(b) Prior to testing, the tyre pressure shall be reduced to the inflation pressure as specified in
paragraph 4.2.2.3. of this annex, adjusted for difference between the soaking environment temperature
and the ambient test temperature at a rate of 0.8 kPa per 1 °C using the following equation:
Δp ¼0:8 × ðT – T Þ

(c) Between the pressure adjustment and the vehicle warm-up, the tyres shall be shielded from external
heat sources including sun radiation.
4.2.3. Instrumentation
Any instruments shall be installed in such a manner as to minimise their effects on the aerodynamic
characteristics of the vehicle.
If the effect of the installed instrument on (C × A) is expected to be greater than 0.015 m2, the difference in
D f
the value of (C × A) of the vehicle with and without the instrument shall be measured in a wind tunnel
D f
fulfilling the criteria in paragraph 3.2. of this annex. The corresponding difference shall be subtracted from
f . At the request of the manufacturer, and with approval of the responsible authority, the determined value
2
may be used for similar vehicles where the influence of the equipment is expected to be the same.
4.2.4. Vehicle warm-up
4.2.4.1. On the road
Warming up shall only be performed by driving the vehicle.
4.2.4.1.1. Before warm-up, the vehicle shall be decelerated with the clutch disengaged or an automatic transmission
placed in neutral by moderate braking from 80 to 20 km/h within 5 to 10 seconds. After this braking, there
shall be no further actuation or manual adjustment of the braking system.
At the request of the manufacturer and upon approval of the responsible authority, the brakes may also be
activated after the warm-up with the same deceleration as described in this paragraph and only if necessary.
4.2.4.1.2. Warming up and stabilization
All vehicles shall be driven at 90 per cent of the maximum speed of the applicable WLTC. The vehicle may be
driven at 90 per cent of the maximum speed of the next higher phase (see Table A4/3) if this phase is added to

4.3. Measurement and calculation of road load using the coastdown method
The road load shall be determined by using either the stationary anemometry (paragraph 4.3.1. of this annex)
or the on-board anemometry (paragraph 4.3.2. of this annex) method.
4.3.1. Coastdown method using stationary anemometry
4.3.1.1. Selection of reference speeds for road load curve determination
Reference speeds for road load determination shall be selected according to paragraph 2.2. of this annex.
4.3.1.2. Data collection
During the test, elapsed time and vehicle speed shall be measured at a minimum frequency of 10 Hz.
4.3.1.3. Vehicle coastdown procedure
4.3.1.3.1. Following the vehicle warm-up procedure described in paragraph 4.2.4. of this annex and immediately prior
to each coastdown run, the vehicle shall be accelerated to 10 to 15 km/h above the highest reference speed
and shall be driven at that speed for a maximum of 1 minute. After that, the coastdown run shall be started
immediately.
4.3.1.3.2. During a coastdown run, the transmission shall be in neutral. Any movement of the steering wheel shall be
avoided as much as possible, and the vehicle brakes shall not be operated.
4.3.1.3.3. The test shall be repeated until the coastdown data satisfy the statistical precision requirements as specified in
paragraph 4.3.1.4.2. of this annex.
318/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
4.3.1.3.4. Although it is recommended that each coastdown run should be performed without interruption, if data
cannot be collected in a single run for all the reference speed points, the coastdown test may be performed
with coastdown runs where the first and last reference speeds are not necessarily the highest and lowest
reference speeds. In this case, the following additional requirements shall apply:
(a) At least one reference speed in each coastdown run shall overlap with the immediately higher speed
range coastdown run. This reference speed shall be referred to as a split point;
(b) At each overlapped reference speed, the average force of the immediately lower speed coastdown run
shall not deviate from the average force of the immediately higher speed coastdown run by ±10 N or
± 5 per cent, whichever is greater;
(c) Overlapped reference speed data of the lower speed coastdown run shall be used only for checking
criterion (b) and shall be excluded from evaluation of the statistical precision as defined in
paragraph 4.3.1.4.2. of this annex;
(d) The overlapped speed may be less than 10 km/h but shall not be less than 5 km/h. In this case, overlap
criterion (b) shall be checked by either extrapolating the polynomial curves for the lower and higher
speed segment to a 10 km/h overlap, or by comparing the average force in the specific speed range.
4.3.1.3.5. It is recommended that coastdown runs should be conducted successively without undue delay between runs.
If there is a delay between runs (e.g. for a driver break, checking vehicle integrity, etc.), the vehicle shall be
warmed up again as described in paragraph 4.2.4. and the coastdown runs shall be re-commenced from this
point.
4.3.1.4. Coastdown time measurement
4.3.1.4.1. The coastdown time corresponding to reference speed vas the elapsed time from vehicle speed (v + 5km=h)

4.3.1.4.3. If during a measurement in one direction any external factor or driver action occurs that obviously influences
the road load test, that measurement and the corresponding measurement in the opposite direction shall be
rejected. All the rejected data and the reason for rejection shall be recorded, and the number of rejected pairs
of measurement shall not exceed 1/3 of the total number of measurement pairs. In the case of split runs, the
rejection criteria shall be applied at each split run speed range.

Due to uncertainty of data validity and for practical reasons, more than the minimum number of run pairs
required in paragraph 4.3.1.4.2. of this annex may be performed, but the total number of run pairs shall not
exceed 30 runs including the rejected pairs as described in this paragraph. In this case, data evaluation shall
be carried out as described in paragraph 4.3.1.4.2. of this annex starting from the first run pair, then
including as many consecutive run pairs as needed to reach the statistical precision on a data set containing
no more than 1/3 of rejected pairs.

4.3.2. Coastdown method using on-board anemometry
The vehicle shall be warmed up and stabilised according to paragraph 4.2.4. of this annex.
4.3.2.1. Additional instrumentation for on-board anemometry
The on-board anemometer and instrumentation shall be calibrated by means of operation on the test vehicle
where such calibration occurs during the warm-up for the test.
4.3.2.1.1. Relative wind speed shall be measured at a minimum frequency of 1 Hz and to an accuracy of 0.3 m/s. Vehicle
blockage shall be accounted for in the calibration of the anemometer.
4.3.2.1.2. Wind direction shall be relative to the direction of the vehicle. The relative wind direction (yaw) shall be
measured with a resolution of 1 degree and an accuracy of 3 degrees; the dead band of the instrument shall
not exceed 10 degrees and shall be directed towards the rear of the vehicle.
4.3.2.1.3. Before the coastdown, the anemometer shall be calibrated for speed and yaw offset as specified in ISO
10521-1:2006(E) Annex A.
4.3.2.1.4. Anemometer blockage shall be corrected for in the calibration procedure as described in ISO
10521-1:2006(E) Annex A in order to minimise its effect.
4.3.2.2. Selection of vehicle speed range for road load curve determination
The test vehicle speed range shall be selected according to paragraph 2.2. of this annex.
4.3.2.3. Data collection
During the procedure, elapsed time, vehicle speed, and air velocity (speed, direction) relative to the vehicle,
shall be measured at a minimum frequency of 5 Hz. Ambient temperature shall be synchronised and sampled
at a minimum frequency of 0.1 Hz.
4.3.2.4. Vehicle coastdown procedure
The measurements shall be carried out in run pairs in opposite directions until a minimum of ten consecutive
runs (five pairs) have been obtained. Should an individual run fail to satisfy the required on-board
anemometry test conditions, that pair, i.e. that run and the corresponding run in the opposite direction, shall
be rejected. All valid pairs shall be included in the final analysis with a minimum of 5 pairs of coastdown runs.
See paragraph 4.3.2.6.10. of this annex for statistical validation criteria.
The anemometer shall be installed in a position such that the effect on the operating characteristics of the
vehicle is minimised.
The anemometer shall be installed according to one of the options below:
(a) Using a boom approximately 2 metres in front of the vehicle’s forward aerodynamic stagnation point;
(b) On the roof of the vehicle at its centreline. If possible, the anemometer shall be mounted within 30 cm
from the top of the windshield;
(c) On the engine compartment cover of the vehicle at its centreline, mounted at the midpoint position
between the vehicle front and the base of the windshield.
322/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
In all cases, the anemometer shall be mounted parallel to the road surface. In the event that positions (b) or (c)
are used, the coastdown results shall be analytically adjusted for the additional aerodynamic drag induced by
the anemometer. The adjustment shall be made by testing the coastdown vehicle in a wind tunnel both with
and without the anemometer installed in the same position as used on the track. The calculated difference
shall be the incremental aerodynamic drag coefficient C combined with the frontal area, which shall be
D
used to correct the coastdown results.
4.3.2.4.1. Following the vehicle warm-up procedure described in paragraph 4.2.4. of this annex and immediately prior
to each coastdown run, the vehicle shall be accelerated to 10 to 15 km/h above the highest reference speed
and shall be driven at that speed for a maximum of 1 minute. After that, the coastdown run shall be started
immediately.
4.3.2.4.2. During a coastdown run, the transmission shall be in neutral. Any steering wheel movement shall be avoided
as much as possible, and the vehicle’s brakes shall not be operated.
4.3.2.4.3. Although it is recommended that each coastdown run be performed without interruption, if data cannot be
collected in a single run for all the reference speed points the coastdown test may be performed with
coastdown runs where the first and last reference speeds are not necessarily the highest and lowest reference
speeds. For split runs, the following additional requirements shall apply:
(a) At least one reference speed in each coastdown run shall overlap with the immediately higher speed
range coastdown run. This reference speed shall be referred to as a split point;
(b) At each overlapped reference speed, the average force of the immediately lower speed coastdown run
shall not deviate from the average force of the immediately higher speed range coastdown run by ±10
N or ±5 per cent, whichever is greater;
(c) Overlapped reference speed data of the lower speed coastdown run shall be used only for checking
criterion (b) and shall be excluded from evaluation of the statistical precision as defined in
paragraph 4.3.1.4.2. of this annex;
(d) The overlapped speed may be less than 10 km/h but shall not be less than 5 km/h. In this case, overlap
criterion (b) shall be checked by either extrapolating the polynomial curves for the lower and higher
speed segment to a 10 km/h overlap, or by comparing the average force in the specific speed range.
4.3.2.4.4. It is recommended that coastdown runs should be conducted successively without undue delay between runs.
If there is a delay between runs (e.g. for a driver break, checking vehicle integrity, etc.), the vehicle shall be
warmed up again as described in paragraph 4.2.4. and the coastdown runs shall be re-commenced from this
point.

2.3.2.1. Vertical force
In addition to the requirement of paragraph 7.3.3.1.3. of Annex B4, the restraint system shall be designed so
that the vertical force imposed on the vehicle is minimised and is the same during the chassis dynamometer

3.1. System specification
3.1.1. Overview
3.1.1.1. A full flow exhaust dilution system shall be used. The total vehicle exhaust shall be continuously diluted
with ambient air under controlled conditions using a constant volume sampler. A critical flow venturi
(CFV) or multiple critical flow venturis arranged in parallel, a positive displacement pump (PDP), a subsonic
venturi (SSV), or an ultrasonic flow meter (UFM) may be used. The total volume of the mixture of exhaust
and dilution air shall be measured and a continuously proportional sample of the volume shall be collected
for analysis. The quantities of exhaust gas compounds shall be determined from the sample concentrations,
corrected for their respective content of the dilution air and the totalised flow over the test period.
3.1.1.2. The exhaust dilution system shall consist of a connecting tube, a mixing device and dilution tunnel, dilution
air conditioning, a suction device and a flow measurement device. Sampling probes shall be fitted in the
dilution tunnel as specified in paragraphs 4.1., 4.2. and 4.3. of this annex.

3.1.1.3. The mixing device referred to in paragraph 3.1.1.2. of this annex shall be a vessel such as that illustrated in
Figure A5/3 in which vehicle exhaust gases and the dilution air are combined so as to produce a
homogeneous mixture at the sampling position.
3.2. General requirements
3.2.1. The vehicle exhaust gases shall be diluted with a sufficient amount of ambient air to prevent any water
condensation in the sampling and measuring system at all conditions that may occur during a test.
3.2.2. The mixture of air and exhaust gases shall be homogeneous at the point where the sampling probes are
located (see paragraph 3.3.3. of this annex). The sampling probes shall extract representative samples of the
diluted exhaust gas.
3.2.3. The system shall enable the total volume of the diluted exhaust gases to be measured.
3.2.4. The sampling system shall be gas-tight. The design of the variable dilution sampling system and the
materials used in its construction shall be such that the concentration of any compound in the diluted
exhaust gases is not affected. If any component in the system (heat exchanger, cyclone separator, suction
device, etc.) changes the concentration of any of the exhaust gas compounds and the systematic error
cannot be corrected, sampling for that compound shall be carried out upstream from that component.
3.2.5. All parts of the dilution system in contact with raw or diluted exhaust gas shall be designed to minimise
deposition or alteration of the particulate or particles. All parts shall be made of electrically conductive
materials that do not react with exhaust gas components, and shall be electrically grounded to prevent
electrostatic effects.
3.2.6. If the vehicle being tested is equipped with an exhaust pipe comprising several branches, the connecting
tubes shall be connected as near as possible to the vehicle without adversely affecting their operation.
3.3. Specific requirements

temperature above the dew point. This may be assumed to be achieved if the tube is heated to 70 °C;
360/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
(b) Not cause the static pressure at the exhaust outlets on the vehicle being tested to differ by more than
±0.75 kPa at 50 km/h, or more than ±1.25 kPa for the duration of the test from the static pressures
recorded when nothing is connected to the vehicle exhaust pipes. The pressure shall be measured in
the exhaust outlet or in an extension having the same diameter and as near as possible to the end of
the tailpipe. Sampling systems capable of maintaining the static pressure to within ±0.25 kPa may be
used if a written request from a manufacturer to the responsible authority substantiates the need for
the tighter tolerance;
(c) No component of the connecting tube shall be of a material that might affect the gaseous or solid
composition of the exhaust gas. To avoid generation of any particles from elastomer connectors,
elastomers employed shall be as thermally stable as possible and have minimum exposure to the
exhaust gas. It is recommended not to use elastomer connectors to bridge the connection between
the vehicle exhaust and the connecting tube.
3.3.2. Dilution air conditioning
3.3.2.1. The dilution air used for the primary dilution of the exhaust in the CVS tunnel shall pass through a medium
capable of reducing particles of the most penetrating particle size in the filter material by ≥ 99.95 per cent,
or through a filter of at least Class H13 of EN 1822:2019. This represents the specification of High
Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters. The dilution air may optionally be charcoal-scrubbed before being
passed to the HEPA filter. It is recommended that an additional coarse particle filter be situated before the
HEPA filter and after the charcoal scrubber, if used.
3.3.2.2. At the vehicle manufacturer's request, the dilution air may be sampled according to good engineering
practice to determine the tunnel contribution to background particulate and particle levels, which can be
subsequently subtracted from the values measured in the diluted exhaust. See paragraph 2.1.3. of Annex B6.
3.3.3. Dilution tunnel
3.3.3.1. Provision shall be made for the vehicle exhaust gases and the dilution air to be mixed. A mixing device may
be used.
3.3.3.2. The homogeneity of the mixture in any cross-section at the location of the sampling probe shall not vary by
more than ±2 per cent from the arithmetic average of the values obtained for at least five points located at
equal intervals on the diameter of the gas stream.
3.3.3.3. For PM and PN emissions sampling, a dilution tunnel shall be used that:
(a) Consists of a straight tube of electrically-conductive material that is grounded;
(b) Causes turbulent flow (Reynolds number ≥ 4,000) and be of sufficient length to cause complete
mixing of the exhaust and dilution air;
(c) Is at least 200 mm in diameter;
(d) May be insulated and/or heated.
3.3.4. Suction device
3.3.4.1. This device may have a range of fixed speeds to ensure sufficient flow to prevent any water condensation.
This result is obtained if the flow is either:
(a) Twice as high as the maximum flow of exhaust gas produced by accelerations of the driving cycle; or
(b) Sufficient to ensure that the CO concentration in the dilute exhaust sample bag is less than 3 per cent
2
by volume for petrol and diesel, less than 2.2 per cent by volume for LPG and less than 1.5 per cent by
volume for NG/biomethane.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 361/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
3.3.4.2. Compliance with the requirements in paragraph 3.3.4.1. of this annex may not be necessary if the CVS
system is designed to inhibit condensation by such techniques, or combination of techniques, as:
(a) Reducing water content in the dilution air (dilution air dehumidification);
(b) Heating of the CVS dilution air and of all components up to the diluted exhaust flow measurement
device and, optionally, the bag sampling system including the sample bags and also the system for the
measurement of the bag concentrations.
In such cases, the selection of the CVS flow rate for the test shall be justified by showing that condensation
of water cannot occur at any point within the CVS, bag sampling or analytical system.
3.3.5. Volume measurement in the primary dilution system
3.3.5.1. The method of measuring total dilute exhaust volume incorporated in the constant volume sampler shall be
such that measurement is accurate to ±2 per cent under all operating conditions. If the device cannot
compensate for variations in the temperature of the mixture of exhaust gases and dilution air at the
measuring point, a heat exchanger shall be used to maintain the temperature to within ±6 °C of the
specified operating temperature for a PDP CVS, ±11 °C for a CFV CVS, ±6 °C for a UFM CVS, and ±11 °C for
an SSV CVS.
3.3.5.2. If necessary, some form of protection for the volume measuring device may be used e.g. a cyclone separator,
bulk stream filter, etc.
3.3.5.3. A temperature sensor shall be installed immediately before the volume measuring device. This temperature
sensor shall have an accuracy of ±1 °C and a response time of 1 second or less at 62 per cent of a given
temperature variation (value measured in water or silicone oil).
3.3.5.4. Measurement of the pressure difference from atmospheric pressure shall be taken upstream from and, if
necessary, downstream from the volume measuring device.
3.3.5.5. The pressure measurements shall have a precision and an accuracy of ±0.4 kPa during the test. See
Table A5/5.
3.3.6. Recommended system description
Figure A5/3 is a schematic drawing of exhaust dilution systems that meet the requirements of this annex.
The following components are recommended:
(a) A dilution air filter, which may be pre-heated if necessary. This filter shall consist of the following
filters in sequence: an optional activated charcoal filter (inlet side), and a HEPA filter (outlet side). It is
recommended that an additional coarse particle filter be situated before the HEPA filter and after the
charcoal filter, if used. The purpose of the charcoal filter is to reduce and stabilize the hydrocarbon
concentrations of ambient emissions in the dilution air;
(b) A connecting tube by which vehicle exhaust is admitted into a dilution tunnel;
(c) An optional heat exchanger as described in paragraph 3.3.5.1. of this annex;
(d) A mixing device in which exhaust gas and dilution air are mixed homogeneously, and which may be
located close to the vehicle so that the length of the connecting tube is minimized;
(e) A dilution tunnel from which particulate and, if applicable, particles are sampled;
362/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
(f) Some form of protection for the measurement system may be used e.g. a cyclone separator, bulk
stream filter, etc.;
(g) A suction device of sufficient capacity to handle the total volume of diluted exhaust gas.
Exact conformity with these figures is not essential. Additional components such as instruments, valves,
solenoids and switches may be used to provide additional information and co-ordinate the functions of the
component system.
Figure A5/3
Exhaust dilution system
3.3.6.1. Positive displacement pump (PDP)
A positive displacement pump (PDP) full flow exhaust dilution system satisfies the requirements of this
annex by metering the flow of gas through the pump at constant temperature and pressure. The total
volume is measured by counting the revolutions made by the calibrated positive displacement pump. The
proportional sample is achieved by sampling with pump, flow meter and flow control valve at a constant
flow rate.
3.3.6.2. Critical flow venturi (CFV)
3.3.6.2.1. The use of a CFV for the full flow exhaust dilution system is based on the principles of flow mechanics for
critical flow. The variable mixture flow rate of dilution and exhaust gas is maintained at sonic velocity that
is directly proportional to the square root of the gas temperature. Flow is continually monitored, computed
and integrated throughout the test.
3.3.6.2.2. The use of an additional critical flow sampling venturi ensures the proportionality of the gas samples taken
from the dilution tunnel. As both pressure and temperature are equal at the two venturi inlets, the volume of
the gas flow diverted for sampling is proportional to the total volume of diluted exhaust gas mixture
produced, and thus the requirements of this annex are fulfilled.
3.3.6.2.3. A measuring CFV tube shall measure the flow volume of the diluted exhaust gas.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 363/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
3.3.6.3. Subsonic flow venturi (SSV)
3.3.6.3.1. The use of an SSV (Figure A5/4) for a full flow exhaust dilution system is based on the principles of flow
mechanics. The variable mixture flow rate of dilution and exhaust gas is maintained at a subsonic velocity
that is calculated from the physical dimensions of the subsonic venturi and measurement of the absolute
temperature (T) and pressure (P) at the venturi inlet and the pressure in the throat of the venturi. Flow is
continually monitored, computed and integrated throughout the test.
3.3.6.3.2. An SSV shall measure the flow volume of the diluted exhaust gas.
Figure A5/4
Schematic of a subsonic venturi tube (SSV)
3.3.6.4. Ultrasonic flow meter (UFM)
3.3.6.4.1. A UFM measures the velocity of the diluted exhaust gas in the CVS piping using the principle of ultrasonic
flow detection by means of a pair, or multiple pairs, of ultrasonic transmitters/receivers mounted within the
pipe as in Figure A5/5. The velocity of the flowing gas is determined by the difference in the time required
for the ultrasonic signal to travel from transmitter to receiver in the upstream direction and the
downstream direction. The gas velocity is converted to standard volumetric flow using a calibration factor
for the tube diameter with real time corrections for the diluted exhaust temperature and absolute pressure.
3.3.6.4.2. Components of the system include:
(a) A suction device fitted with speed control, flow valve or other method for setting the CVS flow rate
and also for maintaining constant volumetric flow at standard conditions;
(b) A UFM;
(c) Temperature and pressure measurement devices, T and P, required for flow correction;
(d) An optional heat exchanger for controlling the temperature of the diluted exhaust to the UFM. If
installed, the heat exchanger shall be capable of controlling the temperature of the diluted exhaust to
that specified in paragraph 3.3.5.1. of this annex. Throughout the test, the temperature of the air/
exhaust gas mixture measured at a point immediately upstream of the suction device shall be within
±6 °C of the arithmetic average operating temperature during the test.

OJ L, 26.6.2026
Figure A5/5
Schematic of an ultrasonic flow meter (UFM)
3.3.6.4.3. The following conditions shall apply to the design and use of the UFM type CVS:
(a) The velocity of the diluted exhaust gas shall provide a Reynolds number higher than 4,000 in order to
maintain a consistent turbulent flow before the ultrasonic flow meter;
(b) An ultrasonic flow meter shall be installed in a pipe of constant diameter with a length of 10 times the
internal diameter upstream and 5 times the diameter downstream;
(c) A temperature sensor (T) for the diluted exhaust shall be installed immediately before the ultrasonic
flow meter. This sensor shall have an accuracy of ±1 °C and a response time of 0.1 seconds at
62 per cent of a given temperature variation (value measured in silicone oil);
(d) The absolute pressure (P) of the diluted exhaust shall be measured immediately before the ultrasonic
flow meter to within ±0.3 kPa;
(e) If a heat exchanger is not installed upstream of the ultrasonic flow meter, the flow rate of the diluted
exhaust, corrected to standard conditions, shall be maintained at a constant level during the test. This
may be achieved by control of the suction device, flow valve or other method.
3.4. CVS calibration procedure
3.4.1. General requirements
3.4.1.1. The CVS system shall be calibrated by using an accurate flow meter and a restricting device and at the
intervals listed in Table A5/4. The flow through the system shall be measured at various pressure readings
and the control parameters of the system measured and related to the flows. The flow metering device (e.g.
calibrated venturi, laminar flow element (LFE), calibrated turbine meter) shall be dynamic and suitable for
the high flow rate encountered in constant volume sampler testing. The device shall be of certified accuracy.
3.4.1.2. The following paragraphs describe methods for calibrating PDP, CFV, SSV and UFM units using a laminar
flow meter, which gives the required accuracy, along with a statistical check on the calibration validity.
3.4.2. Calibration of a positive displacement pump (PDP)
3.4.2.1. The following calibration procedure outlines the equipment, the test configuration and the various
parameters that are measured to establish the flow rate of the CVS pump. All the parameters related to the
pump are simultaneously measured with the parameters related to the flow meter that is connected in
series with the pump. The calculated flow rate (given in m3/min at pump inlet for the measured absolute
pressure and temperature) shall be subsequently plotted versus a correlation function that includes the
relevant pump parameters. The linear equation that relates the pump flow and the correlation function
shall be subsequently determined. In the case that a CVS has a multiple speed drive, a calibration for each
range used shall be performed.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 365/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
3.4.2.2. This calibration procedure is based on the measurement of the absolute values of the pump and flow meter
parameters relating the flow rate at each point. The following conditions shall be maintained to ensure the
accuracy and integrity of the calibration curve:
3.4.2.2.1. The pump pressures shall be measured at tappings on the pump rather than at the external piping on the
pump inlet and outlet. Pressure taps that are mounted at the top centre and bottom centre of the pump
drive head plate are exposed to the actual pump cavity pressures, and therefore reflect the absolute pressure
differentials.
3.4.2.2.2. Temperature stability shall be maintained during the calibration. The laminar flow meter is sensitive to inlet
temperature oscillations that cause data points to be scattered. Gradual changes of ±1 °C in temperature are
acceptable as long as they occur over a period of several minutes.
3.4.2.2.3. All connections between the flow meter and the CVS pump shall be free of leakage.
3.4.2.3. During an exhaust emissions test, the measured pump parameters shall be used to calculate the flow rate
from the calibration equation.
3.4.2.4. Figure A5/6 of this annex shows an example of a calibration set-up. Variations are permissible, provided that
the responsible authority approves them as being of comparable accuracy. If the set-up shown in
Figure A5/6 is used, the following data shall be found within the limits of accuracy given:

major maintenance.

3.5.1. General requirements
3.5.1.1. The total accuracy of the CVS sampling system and analytical system shall be determined by introducing a
known mass of an emissions gas compound into the system whilst it is being operated under normal test
conditions and subsequently analysing and calculating the emission gas compounds according to the
equations of Annex B7. The CFO method described in paragraph 3.5.1.1.1. of this annex and the
gravimetric method described in paragraph 3.5.1.1.2. of this annex are both known to give sufficient
accuracy.
The maximum permissible deviation between the quantity of gas introduced and the quantity of gas
measured is ±2 per cent.
3.5.1.1.1. Critical flow orifice (CFO) method

2 3 8
A known mass of pure carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide or propane gas shall be introduced into the CVS
system through the calibrated critical orifice. If the inlet pressure is high enough, the flow rate qwhich is
restricted by means of the critical flow orifice, is independent of orifice outlet pressure (critical flow). The
CVS system shall be operated as in a normal exhaust emissions test and enough time shall be allowed for
subsequent analysis. The gas collected in the sample bag shall be analysed by the usual equipment (see
paragraph 4.1. of this annex) and the results compared to the concentration of the known gas samples. If
deviations exceed ±2 per cent, the cause of the malfunction shall be determined and corrected.
3.5.1.1.2. Gravimetric method
The gravimetric method weighs a quantity of pure gas (CO, CO , or C H ).
2 3 8
The weight of a small cylinder filled with either pure carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide or propane shall be
determined with a precision of ±0.01 g. The CVS system shall operate under normal exhaust emissions test
conditions while the pure gas is injected into the system for a time sufficient for subsequent analysis. The
quantity of pure gas involved shall be determined by means of differential weighing. The gas accumulated
in the bag shall be analysed by means of the equipment normally used for exhaust gas analysis as described
in paragraph 4.1. of this annex. The results shall be subsequently compared to the concentration figures
computed previously. If deviations exceed ±2 per cent, the cause of the malfunction shall be determined
and corrected.

Figure A5/11
Alternative particulate sampling probe configuration
4.2.1.2. General requirements
4.2.1.2.1. The sampling probe for the test gas flow for particulate shall be arranged within the dilution tunnel so that a
representative sample gas flow can be taken from the homogeneous air/exhaust mixture and shall be
upstream of a heat exchanger (if any).
4.2.1.2.2. The particulate sample flow rate shall be proportional to the total mass flow of diluted exhaust gas in the
dilution tunnel to within a tolerance of ±5 per cent of the particulate sample flow rate. The verification of
the proportionality of the particulate sampling shall be made during the commissioning of the system and
as required by the responsible authority.

components of the particulate sampling system to achieve this is permitted.
In the event that the 52 °C limit is exceeded during a test where periodic regeneration event does not occur,
the CVS flow rate shall be increased or double dilution shall be applied (assuming that the CVS flow rate is
already sufficient so as not to cause condensation within the CVS, sample bags or analytical system).
4.2.1.2.4. The particulate sample shall be collected on a single filter mounted within a holder in the sampled dilute
exhaust gas flow.

the particulate. All parts shall be made of electrically conductive materials that do not react with exhaust
gas components, and shall be electrically grounded to prevent electrostatic effects.

exchanger and a temperature control device as specified in paragraphs 3.3.5.1. or 3.3.6.4.2. of this annex,
so as to ensure that the flow rate in the system is constant and the sampling rate accordingly proportional.

response time (t – t ) of 15 seconds or less.
90 10

exhaust flow rates through the filter shall be of a higher accuracy.
4.2.1.2.9. All data channels required for the measurement of PM shall be logged at a frequency of 1 Hz or faster.
Typically, these would include:

ep
defined in paragraph 3.3.2. of Annex B7 in the equation is not measured directly but determined by
differential flow measurement.
The accuracy of the flow meters used for the measurement and control of the double diluted exhaust
passing through the particulate sampling filters and for the measurement/control of secondary dilution air
shall be sufficient so that the differential volume V shall meet the accuracy and proportional sampling
ep
requirements specified for single dilution.
The requirement that no condensation of the exhaust gas occur in the CVS dilution tunnel, diluted exhaust
flow rate measurement system, CVS bag collection or analysis systems shall also apply in the case that
double dilution systems are used.
4.2.1.2.11. Each flow meter used in a particulate sampling and double dilution system shall be subjected to a linearity
verification as required by the instrument manufacturer.

4.2.2.3. Elimination of static electricity effects
The effects of static electricity shall be nullified. This may be achieved by grounding the balance through

For stainless steel calibration weights, a density of 8,000 kg/m3 shall be used. If the material of the
calibration weight is different, its density shall be known and be used. International Recommendation

5.5.1.1. The analyser shall be calibrated in the most common operating range following the manufacturer's
specifications using zero and calibration gas (the NO content of which shall amount to approximately
80 per cent of the operating range and the NO concentration of the gas mixture shall be less than 5 per
2
cent of the NO concentration). The NOx analyser shall be in the NO mode so that the calibration gas does

annex. The indicated concentration (d) shall be recorded.
5.5.1.4. The NOx analyser shall be subsequently switched to the NOx mode, whereby the gas mixture (consisting of
NO, NO , O and N ) now passes through the converter. The indicated concentration (a) shall be recorded.

5.5.1.7. The per cent efficiency of the NOx converter shall be calculated using the concentrations a, b, c and d
determined in paragraphs 5.5.1.2. to 5.5.1.5. inclusive of this annex using the following equation:

5.7.1.1. The responsible authority shall ensure the existence of a calibration certificate for the PNC demonstrating
compliance with a traceable standard within a 13-month period prior to the emissions test. Between
calibrations either the counting efficiency of the PNC shall be monitored for deterioration or the PNC wick
shall be routinely changed every 6 months if recommended by the instrument manufacturer. See
Figures A5/16 and A5/17. PNC counting efficiency may be monitored against a reference PNC or against at
least two other measurement PNCs. If the PNC reports particle number concentrations within ±10 per cent
of the arithmetic average of the concentrations from the reference PNC, or a group of two or more PNCs,
the PNC shall subsequently be considered stable, otherwise maintenance of the PNC is required. Where the
PNC is monitored against two or more other measurement PNCs, it is permitted to use a reference vehicle
running sequentially in different test cells each with its own PNC.

ANNEX B6
Type 1 test procedures and test conditions
1. Description of tests
1.1. The Type 1 test is used to verify the emissions of gaseous compounds, particulate matter, particle number,
CO emission, fuel consumption, electric energy consumption and electric ranges over the applicable WLTP
2
test cycle and OBFCM accuracy (where applicable).
1.1.1. The tests shall be carried out according to the method described in paragraph 2. of this annex or
paragraph 3. of Annex B8 for pure electric, hybrid electric and compressed hydrogen fuel cell hybrid
vehicles. Exhaust gases, particulate matter and particle number shall be sampled and analysed by the
prescribed methods.
1.1.2. When the reference fuel to be used is LPG or NG/biomethane, the following provisions shall apply
additionally.
1.1.2.1. Exhaust emissions approval of a parent vehicle
1.1.2.1.1. The parent vehicle should demonstrate its capability to adapt to any fuel composition that may occur across
the market. In the case of LPG there are variations in C3/C4 composition. In the case of NG/biomethane
there are generally two types of fuel, high calorific fuel (H-gas) and low calorific fuel (Lgas), but with a
significant spread within both ranges; they differ significantly in Wobbe index. These variations are
reflected in the reference fuels.
1.1.2.1.2. In the case of vehicles fuelled by LPG, NG/biomethane, the parent vehicle(s) shall be tested in the Type 1 test
on the two extreme reference fuels of Annex B3. In the case of NG/biomethane, if the transition from one
fuel to another is in practice aided through the use of a switch, this switch shall not be used during type
approval. In such a case on the manufacturer's request and with the agreement of the approval authority
the pre-conditioning cycle referred in paragraph 2.6. of this annex may be extended.
1.1.2.1.3. The vehicle is considered to conform if, under the tests and reference fuels mentioned in paragraph
1.1.2.1.2. of this annex, the vehicle complies with the emission limits.
1.1.2.1.4. In the case of vehicles fuelled by LPG or NG/biomethane, the ratio of emission results "r" shall be
determined for each pollutant as follows:
Type(s) of fuel Reference fuels Calculation of "r"
LPG and petrol or LPG only Fuel A r¼ B
A
Fuel B
NG/biomethane and petrol or NG/ Fuel G
20

1.1.2.2. Exhaust emissions approval of a member of the family:
For the type approval of a mono fuel gas vehicle and bi fuel gas vehicles operating in gas mode, fuelled by
LPG or NG/Biomethane, as a member of the family, a Type 1 test shall be performed with one gas reference
fuel. This reference fuel may be either of the gas reference fuels. The vehicle is considered to comply if the
following requirements are met:
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 401/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
1.1.2.2.1. The vehicle complies with the definition of a family member as defined in paragraph 6.3.6.3. of this
Regulation;
1.1.2.2.2. If the test fuel is reference fuel A for LPG or G20 for NG/biomethane, the emission result shall be multiplied
by the relevant factor "r" calculated in paragraph 1.1.2.1.4. of this annex if r > 1; if r < 1, no correction is
needed;
1.1.2.2.3. If the test fuel is reference fuel B for LPG or G25 for NG/biomethane, the emission result shall be divided by
the relevant factor "r" calculated in paragraph 1.1.2.1.4. of this annex if r < 1; if r > 1, no correction is
needed;
1.1.2.2.4. On the manufacturer's request, the Type 1 test may be performed on both reference fuels, so that no
correction is needed;
1.1.2.2.5. The vehicle shall comply with the emission limits valid for the relevant category for both measured and
calculated emissions;
1.1.2.2.6. If repeated tests are made on the same engine the results on reference fuel G , or A, and those on reference
20
fuel G , or B, shall first be averaged; the "r" factor shall then be calculated from these averaged results;
25
1.2. The number of tests shall be determined according to the flowchart in Figure A6/1. The limit value is the
maximum allowed value for the respective criteria emission as specified in Table 1 of this Regulation.
1.2.1. The flowchart in Figure A6/1 shall be applicable only to the whole applicable WLTP test cycle and not to
single phases.
1.2.2. The test results shall be the values after the applicable adjustments specified in the post-processing tables in
Annex B7 and Annex B8 are applied.
1.2.3. Determination of total cycle values
1.2.3.1. If during any of the tests a criteria emissions limit is exceeded, the vehicle shall be rejected.
1.2.3.2. Depending on the vehicle type, the manufacturer shall declare as applicable the total cycle values of the CO

1.2.3.3. The declared value of the equivalent all electric range for OVC-HEVs and OVC-FCHVs shall not be
determined according to Figure A6/1. The declared value shall be taken as the type approval value if it is
less than the calculated EAER value according to paragraph 4.4.4.1. If that is not the case, the calculated
EAER shall be taken as the type approval value.
For Level 1A and 4-phase WLTP test in Level 2:
The declared value of the electric energy consumption for OVC-HEVs and OVC-FCHVs under charge-
depleting operating condition shall not be determined according to Figure A6/1. It shall be taken as the

measured value of fuel efficiency shall be taken as the type approval value. Evidence of a correlation
between declared fuel efficiency and electric energy consumption shall be submitted to the responsible
authority in advance, if applicable.
1.2.3.4. If after the first test all criteria in row 1 of the applicable Table A6/2 are fulfilled, all values declared by the
manufacturer shall be accepted as the type approval value. If any one of the criteria in row 1 of the
applicable Table A6/2 is not fulfilled, a second test shall be performed with the same vehicle.

of the applicable Table A6/2 are fulfilled by these arithmetic average results, all values declared by the
manufacturer shall be accepted as the type approval value. If any one of the criteria in row 2 of the
applicable Table A6/2 is not fulfilled, a third test shall be performed with the same vehicle.
1.2.3.6. After the third test, the arithmetic average results of the three tests shall be calculated. For all parameters
which fulfil the corresponding criterion in row 3 of the applicable Table A6/2, the declared value shall be
taken as the type approval value. For any parameter which does not fulfil the corresponding criterion in
row 3 of the applicable Table A6/2, the arithmetic average result shall be taken as the type approval value.
1.2.3.7. In the case that any one of the criterion of the applicable Table A6/2 is not fulfilled after the first or second
test, at the request of the manufacturer and with the approval of the responsible authority, the values may be
re-declared as higher values for emissions or consumption, or as lower values for electric ranges and
declared pure electric range ratio at low temperature K , in order to reduce the required number

2.1.3. Background concentrations shall be measured for all compounds for which dilute mass emissions
measurements are conducted. For exhaust emissions testing, this requires sampling and analysis of the
dilution air.
2.1.3.1. Background particulate measurement
2.1.3.1.1. Where the manufacturer requests subtraction of either dilution air or dilution tunnel background particulate
mass from emissions measurements, these background levels shall be determined according to the
procedures listed in paragraphs 2.1.3.1.1.1. to 2.1.3.1.1.3. inclusive of this annex.
2.1.3.1.1.1. The maximum permissible background correction shall be a mass on the filter equivalent to 1 mg/km at the

considered to be zero.
2.1.3.1.2. Dilution air background particulate mass level shall be determined by passing filtered dilution air through
the particulate background filter. This shall be drawn from a point immediately downstream of the dilution
air filters. Background levels in μg/m3 shall be determined as a rolling arithmetic average of at least 14
measurements with at least one measurement per week.

purposes of background measurement. One measurement may be performed on the day of test, either
prior to or after the test.
2.1.3.2. Background particle number determination
2.1.3.2.1. Where a manufacturer requests a background correction, these background levels shall be determined as
follows:
2.1.3.2.1.1. The background value may be either calculated or measured. The maximum permissible background
correction shall be related to the maximum allowable leak rate of the particle number measurement system
(0.5 particles per cm3) scaled from the particle concentration reduction factor, PCRF, and the CVS flow rate
used in the actual test;
2.1.3.2.1.2. Either the responsible authority or the manufacturer may request that actual background measurements are
used instead of calculated ones.
2.1.3.2.1.3. Where subtraction of the background contribution gives a negative result, the PN result shall be considered
to be zero.
2.1.3.2.2. The dilution air background particle number level shall be determined by sampling filtered dilution air. This
shall be drawn from a point immediately downstream of the dilution air filters into the PN measurement
system. Background levels in particles per cm3shall be determined as a rolling arithmetic average of least
14 measurements with at least one measurement per week.
2.1.3.2.3. The dilution tunnel background particle number level shall be determined by sampling filtered dilution air.
This shall be drawn from the same point as the PN sample. Where secondary dilution is used for the test
the secondary dilution system shall be active for the purposes of background measurement. One
measurement may be performed on the day of test, either prior to or after the test using the actual PCRF
and the CVS flow rate utilised during the test.

The soak area shall have a temperature set point of 23 °C and the tolerance of the actual value shall be within
±3 °C on a 5-minute running arithmetic average and shall not show a systematic deviation from the set
point. The temperature shall be measured continuously at a minimum frequency of 0.033 Hz (every 30 s).
2.3. Test vehicle
2.3.1. General
The test vehicle shall conform in all its components with the production series, or, if the vehicle is different
from the production series (e.g. for worst case testing), a full description shall be recorded. In selecting the
test vehicle, the manufacturer and the responsible authority shall agree which vehicle model is
representative for the interpolation family.
In the case that vehicles within an interpolation family are equipped with different emission control systems
that could have an effect on the emission behaviour, the manufacturer shall either demonstrate to the
responsible authority that the test vehicle(s) selected and its (their) results from the Type 1 test are
representative for the interpolation family, or demonstrate the fulfilment of the criteria emission within the
interpolation family by testing one or more individual vehicles that differ in their emission control systems.
For the measurement of emissions, the road load as determined with test vehicle H shall be applied. In the
case of a road load matrix family, for the measurement of emissions, the road load as calculated for vehicle
H according to paragraph 5.1. of Annex B4 shall be applied.
M
If at the request of the manufacturer the interpolation method is used (see paragraph 3.2.3.2. of Annex B7),
an additional measurement of emissions shall be performed with the road load as determined with test
vehicle L. Tests on vehicles H and L should be performed with the same test vehicle and shall be tested with
the shortest n/v ratio (with a tolerance of ±1.5 per cent) within the interpolation family. In the case of a road
load matrix family, an additional measurement of emissions shall be performed with the road load as
calculated for vehicle L according to paragraph 5.1. of Annex B4.
M
Road load coefficients and the test mass of test vehicle L and H may be taken from different road load matrix
families. They may also be taken from different road load families as long as the difference between these
road load families has been demonstrated to and accepted by the responsible authority, and results from
either applying paragraph 6.8. of Annex B4 or tyres taken from different tyre categories, while the
requirements in paragraph 2.3.2. of this annex are maintained.
2.3.2. CO interpolation range
2
2.3.2.1. The interpolation method shall only be used if the difference in CO over the applicable cycle resulting from
2
the table below between test vehicles L and H is between a minimum of 5 g/km and a maximum defined in
paragraph 2.3.2.2. of this annex.
2.3.2.2. The maximum difference in CO emissions allowed over the applicable cycle resulting from the table below
2
between test vehicles L and H shall be 20 per cent plus 5 g/km of the CO emissions from vehicle H, but at
2
least 15 g/km and not exceeding 30 g/km. See Figure A6/2.

interpolation method on individual vehicle values within a family may be extended if the maximum
extrapolation of an individual vehicle resulting from the table below is not more than 3 g/km above the
CO emission of vehicle H resulting from the table below and/or is not more than 3 g/km below the CO

Vehicle M is a vehicle within the interpolation family between the vehicles L and H with a cycle energy
demand which is preferably closest to the average of vehicles L and H.
The limits of the selection of vehicle M (see Figure A6/4) are such that neither the difference in CO emission

vehicles L and H.
If the linearity criterion is not fulfilled, the interpolation family shall be split into two sub-families for
vehicles with a cycle energy demand between vehicles L and M, and vehicles with a cycle energy demand
between vehicles M and H. In such a case, the final CO emissions of vehicle M shall be determined in

accordance with the same process as for vehicles L or H. See step 9 in Table A7/1 of Annex B7.
For vehicles with a cycle energy demand between that of vehicles L and M, each parameter of vehicle H
necessary for the application of the interpolation method on individual values shall be substituted by the
corresponding parameter of vehicle M.
For vehicles with a cycle energy demand between that of vehicles M and H, each parameter of vehicle L

2.6.3.1. The test vehicle shall be placed, either by being driven or pushed, on a dynamometer and operated through
the applicable WLTCs. The vehicle need not be cold, and may be used to set the dynamometer load.
2.6.3.2. The dynamometer load shall be set according to paragraphs 7. and 8. of Annex B4. In the case that a
dynamometer in 2WD operation is used for testing, the road load setting shall be carried out on a
dynamometer in 2WD operation, and in the case that a dynamometer in 4WD operation is used for testing
the road load setting shall be carried out on a dynamometer in 4WD operation.
2.6.4. Operating the vehicle
2.6.4.1. The powertrain start procedure shall be initiated by means of the devices provided for this purpose
according to the manufacturer's instructions.
A non-vehicle initiated switching of mode of operation during the test shall not be permitted unless
otherwise specified.
2.6.4.1.1. If the initiation of the powertrain start procedure is not successful, e.g. the engine does not start as
anticipated or the vehicle displays a start error, the test is void, preconditioning tests shall be repeated and a
new test shall be driven.
2.6.4.1.2. In the cases where LPG or NG/biomethane is used as a fuel, it is permissible that the engine is started on
petrol and switched automatically to LPG or NG/biomethane after a predetermined period of time that
cannot be changed by the driver. This period of time shall not exceed 60 seconds.
It is also permissible to use petrol only or simultaneously with gas when operating in gas mode provided
that the energy consumption of gas is higher than 80 per cent of the total amount of energy consumed
during the Type 1 test. This percentage shall be calculated in accordance with the method set out in
Appendix 3 to this annex.
2.6.4.2. The cycle starts on initiation of the powertrain start procedure.
2.6.4.3. For preconditioning, the applicable WLTC shall be driven.
At the request of the manufacturer or the responsible authority, additional WLTCs may be performed in
order to bring the vehicle and its control systems to a stabilized condition.
The extent of such additional preconditioning shall be included in all relevant test reports.
2.6.4.4. Accelerations
The vehicle shall be operated with the necessary accelerator control movement to accurately follow the
speed trace.
The vehicle shall be operated smoothly following representative shift speeds and procedures.
For manual transmissions, the accelerator control shall be released during each shift and the shift shall be
accomplished in minimum time.
If the vehicle cannot follow the speed trace, it shall be operated at maximum available power until the
vehicle speed reaches the respective target speed again.

During decelerations, the driver shall deactivate the accelerator control but shall not manually disengage the
clutch until the point specified in paragraphs 3.3. or 4.(f) of Annex B2.
If the vehicle decelerates faster than prescribed by the speed trace, the accelerator control shall be operated
such that the vehicle accurately follows the speed trace.
If the vehicle decelerates too slowly to follow the intended deceleration, the brakes shall be applied such that
it is possible to accurately follow the speed trace.
2.6.4.6. Brake application
During stationary/idling vehicle phases, the brakes shall be applied with appropriate force to prevent the
drive wheels from turning.
2.6.5. Use of the transmission
2.6.5.1. Manual shift transmissions

position for CO emissions.
2
The manufacturer shall provide evidence to the responsible authority of the existence of a mode that fulfils
the requirements of paragraph 3.5.9. of this Regulation. With the agreement of the responsible authority,
the predominant mode may be used as the only mode for the determination of criteria emissions, CO
2
emissions, and fuel consumption.
2.6.6.2. If the vehicle has no predominant mode because it has two or more configurable start modes, the worst case
mode for CO emissions and fuel consumption within those configurable start modes shall be tested and
2
may be used as the only mode for the determination of criteria emissions, CO emissions and fuel
2
consumption.
2.6.6.3. If the vehicle has no predominant mode or the requested predominant mode is not agreed by the
responsible authority as being a predominant mode, or there are not two or more configurable start
modes, the vehicle shall be tested for criteria emissions, CO emissions, and fuel consumption in the best
2
case mode and worst case mode. Best and worst case modes shall be identified by the evidence provided on
the CO emissions and fuel consumption in all modes. CO emissions and fuel consumption shall be the
2 2
arithmetic average of the test results in both modes. Test results for both modes shall be recorded.

2.6.6.4. On the basis of technical evidence provided by the manufacturer and with the agreement of the responsible
authority, the dedicated driver-selectable modes for very special limited purposes shall not be considered
(e.g. maintenance mode, crawler mode). All remaining modes used for forward driving shall be considered
and the criteria emissions limits shall be fulfilled in all these modes.
2.6.6.5. Paragraphs 2.6.6.1. to 2.6.6.4. inclusive of this annex shall apply to all vehicle systems with driver-selectable
modes, including those not solely specific to the transmission.

OJ L, 26.6.2026
2.14.2.10. Calibrations and checks shall be performed either:
(a) Before and after each bag pair analysis; or
(b) Before and after the complete test.
In case (b), calibrations and checks shall be performed on all analysers for all ranges used during the test.
In both cases, (a) and (b), the same analyser range shall be used for the corresponding ambient air and
exhaust bags.
2.14.3. Particulate sample filter weighing
2.14.3.1. The particulate sample filter shall be returned to the weighing chamber (or room) no later than 1 hour after
completion of the test. It shall be conditioned in a petri dish, which is protected against dust contamination
and allows air exchange, for at least 1 hour, and weighed. The gross weight of the filter shall be recorded.
2.14.3.2. At least two unused reference filters shall be weighed within 8 hours of, but preferably at the same time as,
the sample filter weighings. Reference filters shall be of the same size and material as the sample filter.
2.14.3.3. If the specific weight of any reference filter changes by more than ±5 μg between sample filter weighings, the
sample filter and reference filters shall be reconditioned in the weighing chamber (or room) and reweighed.
2.14.3.4. The comparison of reference filter weighings shall be made between the specific weights and the rolling
arithmetic average of that reference filter's specific weights. The rolling arithmetic average shall be
calculated from the specific weights collected in the period after the reference filters were placed in the
weighing chamber (or room). The averaging period shall be at least one day but not more than 15 days.
2.14.3.5. Multiple reconditionings and reweighings of the sample and reference filters are permitted until a period of
80 hours has elapsed following the measurement of gases from the emissions test. If, prior to or at the
80-hour point, more than half the number of reference filters meet the ±5 μg criterion, the sample filter
weighing may be considered valid. If, at the 80-hour point, two reference filters are employed and one filter
fails the ±5 μg criterion, the sample filter weighing may be considered valid under the condition that the
sum of the absolute differences between specific and rolling means from the two reference filters shall be
less than or equal to 10 μg.
2.14.3.6. In the case that less than half of the reference filters meet the ±5 μg criterion, the sample filter shall be
discarded, and the emissions test repeated. All reference filters shall be discarded and replaced within
48 hours. In all other cases, reference filters shall be replaced at least every 30 days and in such a manner
that no sample filter is weighed without comparison to a reference filter that has been present in the
weighing chamber (or room) for at least one day.
2.14.3.7. If the weighing chamber (or room) stability criteria outlined in paragraph 4.2.2.1. of Annex B5 are not met,
but the reference filter weighings meet the above criteria, the vehicle manufacturer has the option of
accepting the sample filter weights or voiding the tests, repairing the weighing chamber (or room) control
system and re-running the test.

The declaration of compliance shall also include the applicable regeneration factors Ki determined in accordance
with the procedures given in this Appendix or any other appropriate means at the choice of the manufacturer.
A template for the manufacturer's declaration of compliance for the regeneration requirements is laid down in
Appendix 3 of Annex A2.
1.2. During cycles where regeneration occurs, emission standards need not apply. If a periodic regeneration occurs at
least once per Type 1 test and has already occurred at least once during vehicle preparation or the distance
between two successive periodic regenerations is more than 4,000 km of driving repeated Type 1 tests, it does
not require a special test procedure. In this case, this appendix does not apply and a Ki factor of 1.0 shall be used.
1.3. The provisions of this appendix shall not apply to PN emissions.
1.4. At the request of the manufacturer, and with approval of the responsible authority, the test procedure specific to
periodically regenerating systems need not apply to a regenerative device if the manufacturer provides data
demonstrating that, during cycles where regeneration occurs, emissions remain below the emissions limits
specified in paragraph 6.3.10. of this Regulation for the relevant vehicle category. In this case, a fixed Ki value of
1.05 shall be used for CO and fuel consumption.
2
2. Test procedure
The test vehicle shall be capable of inhibiting or permitting the regeneration process provided that this operation
has no effect on original engine calibrations. Prevention of regeneration is only permitted during loading of the
regeneration system and during the preconditioning cycles. It is not permitted during the measurement of
emissions during the regeneration phase. The emission test shall be carried out with the unchanged, original
equipment manufacturer's (OEM) control unit. At the request of the manufacturer and with agreement of the
responsible authority, an "engineering control unit" which has no effect on original engine calibrations may be
used during K determination.
i
2.1. Exhaust emissions measurement between two WLTCs with regeneration events
2.1.1. The arithmetic average emissions between regeneration events and during loading of the regenerative device shall
be determined from the arithmetic mean of several approximately equidistant (if more than two) Type 1 tests. As
an alternative, the manufacturer may provide data to show that the emissions remain constant (±15 per cent) on
WLTCs between regeneration events. In this case, the emissions measured during the Type 1 test may be used. In
any other case, emissions measurements for at least two Type 1 cycles shall be completed: one immediately after
regeneration (before new loading) and one as close as possible prior to a regeneration phase. All emissions
measurements shall be carried out according to this annex and all calculations shall be carried out according to
paragraph 3. of this appendix.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 431/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
2.1.2. The loading process and K determination shall be made during the Type 1 driving cycle on a chassis
i
dynamometer or on an engine test bench using an equivalent test cycle. These cycles may be run continuously
(i.e. without the need to switch the engine off between cycles). After any number of completed cycles, the vehicle
may be removed from the chassis dynamometer and the test continued at a later time.
For Class 2 and Class 3 vehicles, at the request of the manufacturer and with the agreement of the responsible
authority the K can be determined either with or without the Extra High phase.
i
Upon request of the manufacturer and with approval of the responsible authority, a manufacturer may develop an
alternative procedure and demonstrate its equivalency, including filter temperature, loading quantity and distance
driven. This may be done on an engine bench or on a chassis dynamometer.
2.1.3. The number of cycles D between two WLTCs where regeneration events occur, the number of cycles over which
emission measurements are made n and the mass emissions measurement M0 for each compound i over each
sij
cycle j shall be recorded.
2.2. Measurement of emissions during regeneration events
2.2.1. Preparation of the vehicle, if required, for the emissions test during a regeneration phase, may be completed using
the preconditioning cycles in paragraph 2.6. of this annex or equivalent engine test bench cycles, depending on the
loading procedure chosen in paragraph 2.1.2. of this appendix.
2.2.2. The test and vehicle conditions for the Type 1 test described in this Regulation apply before the first valid emission
test is carried out.
2.2.3. Regeneration shall not occur during the preparation of the vehicle. This may be ensured by one of the following
methods:
(a) A "dummy" regenerating system or partial system may be fitted for the preconditioning cycles;
(b) Any other method agreed between the manufacturer and the responsible authority.
2.2.4. A cold start exhaust emissions test including a regeneration process shall be performed according to the applicable
WLTC.
2.2.5. If the regeneration process requires more than one WLTC, each WLTC shall be completed. Use of a single
particulate sample filter for multiple cycles required to complete regeneration is permissible.
If more than one WLTC is required, subsequent WLTC(s) shall be driven immediately, without switching the
engine off, until complete regeneration has been achieved. In the case that the number of gaseous emission bags
required for the multiple cycles would exceed the number of bags available, the time necessary to set up a new
test shall be as short as possible. The engine shall not be switched off during this period.
2.2.6. The emission values during regeneration M for each compound i shall be calculated according to paragraph 3. of
ri
this appendix. The number of applicable test cycles dmeasured for complete regeneration shall be recorded.

2. Measurement equipment and instrumentation
2.1. Current measurement
REESS depletion shall be defined as negative current.
2.1.1. The REESS current(s) shall be measured during the tests using a clamp-on or closed type current transducer. The
current measurement system shall fulfil the requirements specified in Table A8/1. The current transducer(s) shall
be capable of handling the peak currents at engine starts and temperature conditions at the point of measurement.
In order to have an accurate measurement, zero adjustment and degaussing shall be performed before the test
according to the instrument manufacturer's instructions.
2.1.2. Current transducers shall be fitted to any of the REESS on one of the cables connected directly to the REESS and

In case of shielded wires, appropriate methods shall be applied in accordance with the responsible authority.
In order to easily measure REESS current using external measuring equipment, manufacturers should preferably
integrate appropriate, safe and accessible connection points in the vehicle. If this is not feasible, the manufacturer
shall support the responsible authority by providing the means to connect a current transducer to the REESS
cables in the manner described above.
2.1.3. The measured current shall be integrated over time at a minimum frequency of 20 Hz, yielding the measured value
of Q, expressed in ampere-hours Ah. The integration may be done in the current measurement system.

2.2.1. Alternatively, the REESS current shall be determined using vehicle-based data. In order to use this measurement
method, the following information shall be accessible from the test vehicle:
(a) Integrated charging balance value since last ignition run in Ah;
(b) Integrated on-board data charging balance value calculated at a minimum sample frequency of 5 Hz;
(c) The charging balance value via an OBD connector as described in SAE J1962.

charging and discharging data are correct. The accuracy of the data shall be demonstrated on a representative
vehicle.
The following family criteria shall be valid:
(a) Identical combustion processes (i.e. positive ignition, compression ignition, two-stroke, four-stroke);
(b) Identical charge and/or recuperation strategy (software REESS data module);
(c) On-board data availability;
(d) Identical charging balance measured by REESS data module;
(e) Identical on-board charging balance simulation.
2.2.3. All REESS having no influence on CO emissions shall be excluded from monitoring.

3. REESS energy change-based correction procedure
3.1. Measurement of the REESS current shall start at the same time as the test starts and shall end immediately after the
vehicle has driven the complete driving cycle.
3.2. The electricity balance Q measured in the electric power supply system shall be used as a measure of the difference
in the REESS energy content at the end of the cycle compared to the beginning of the cycle. The electricity balance
shall be determined for the total driven WLTC.
3.3. Separate values of Q shall be logged over the driven cycle phases.

Unless a test is required by the granting type-approval authority for the purpose of type-approval, the
manufacturer shall provide a signed declaration of compliance with the ATCT requirements. This declaration of
compliance replaces the requirements for testing in accordance with this Annex at type-approval.
The declaration of compliance shall also include the applicable family correction factor (FCF) determined in
accordance with the procedures given in this Annex or any other appropriate means at the choice of the
manufacturer.
A template for the manufacturer's declaration of compliance with the ATCT requirements is laid down in

2
in accordance with the requirements of this annex. No correction is required for the CO value of the charge-
2
depleting test. No correction is required for an Electric Range.
1.2. In order to ensure statistical representativity, at the request of the manufacturer, all tests from which results are
used in the calculations described in this Annex B6a can be repeated up to a maximum of 3 times and the
arithmetic average of results used in the context of this Annex B6a. Where the tests have been performed only

insulation. Manufacturers shall provide evidence (e.g. by CAD drawings) to the approval authority that for
all vehicles in the family, the volume and weight of the insulation material which will be installed is greater
than 90 per cent of that of the ATCT measured reference vehicle.
Difference in insulation material and location may also be accepted to be part of a single ATCT family under the
condition that the test vehicle can be demonstrated as being the worst case with regards to engine compartment
insulation.

the enthalpy of the test vehicle; and
(b) The OEM can provide evidence to the technical service that the time for heat release at engine start within a
family is within a range of 0 to 10 per cent below the time for the heat release of the test vehicle.
2.1.2. Only vehicles that meet the criteria set out in paragraph 3.9.4. of this Annex B6a shall be considered to be part of
the same ATCT Family.
3. ATCT Procedure
The Type 1 test specified in Annex B6 shall be carried out with the exception of the requirements specified in

(b) The alternative method shall only be used for types of aerodynamic-influencing optional equipment
(e.g. wheels, cooling air control systems, spoilers etc.) for which equivalency has been demonstrated;
(c) Evidence of equivalency outlined in (a) and (b) shall be shown to the responsible authority in advance
of the type-approval for the road load family. For any alternative method, validation shall be based
on wind tunnel measurements fulfilling the criteria of this Regulation;

ANNEX C3
Type 4 test
Determination of evaporative emissions from vehicles with engines fuelled with petrol
Type 4 test procedures and test conditions
1. Introduction
This annex provides the method to determine the levels of evaporative emission from light-duty vehicles in a
repeatable and reproducible manner designed to be representative of real world vehicle operation.
2. Technical requirements
2.1. The procedure includes the evaporative emissions test and two additional tests, one for the ageing of carbon
canisters, as described in paragraph 5.1. of this annex, and one for the permeability of the fuel tank system, as
described in paragraph 5.2. of this annex. The evaporative emissions test (Figure C3/4) determines hydrocarbon
evaporative emissions as a consequence of diurnal temperature fluctuations and hot soaks during parking.
2.2. In the case that the fuel system contains more than one carbon canister, all references to the term "carbon
canister" in this annex will apply to each carbon canister.
3. Vehicle
The vehicle shall be in good mechanical condition and have been run-in and driven at least 3,000 km before
the test. For the purpose of the determination of evaporative emissions, the mileage and the age of the vehicle
used for certification shall be recorded. The evaporative emission control system shall be connected and
functioning correctly during the run-in period. The aged carbon canister shall not be installed during the
run-in period.
A carbon canister aged according to the procedure described in paragraphs 5.1. to 5.1.3.1.3. inclusive of this
annex shall not be installed until the start of the fuel drain and refill procedure specified in paragraph 6.5.1. of
this annex.
4. Test equipment, calibration requirements and intervals
Unless stated otherwise in this paragraph, equipment used for testing shall be calibrated before its initial use
and at appropriate service intervals thereafter. An appropriate service interval shall be either equipment
manufacturer recommendation or according to good engineering practice.
4.1. Chassis dynamometer
The chassis dynamometer shall meet the requirements of paragraphs 2. to 2.4.2. inclusive of Annex B5.
4.2. Evaporative emission measurement enclosure
The evaporative emission measurement enclosure shall be a gas-tight rectangular measuring chamber able to
contain the vehicle under test. The vehicle shall be accessible from all sides and the enclosure when sealed shall
be gas-tight in accordance with paragraph 4.2.3.3. of this annex. The inner surface of the enclosure shall be
impermeable and non-reactive to hydrocarbons. The temperature conditioning system shall be capable of
controlling the internal enclosure air temperature to follow the prescribed temperature versus time profile
throughout the test, and an average tolerance of 1 °C over the duration of the test.
646/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
The control system shall be tuned to provide a smooth temperature pattern that has a minimum of overshoot,
hunting, and instability about the desired long-term ambient temperature profile. Interior surface temperatures
shall not be less than 5 °C nor more than 55 °C at any time during the diurnal emission test.
Wall design shall be such as to promote good dissipation of heat. Interior surface temperatures shall not be
below 20 °C, nor above 52 °C for the duration of the hot soak rest.
To accommodate the volume changes due to enclosure temperature changes, either a variable-volume or fixed-
volume enclosure may be used.
4.2.1. Variable-volume enclosure
The variable-volume enclosure expands and contracts in response to the temperature change of the air mass in
the enclosure. Two potential means of accommodating the internal volume changes are movable panel(s), or a
bellows design, in which an impermeable bag or bags inside the enclosure expand(s) and contracts(s) in
response to internal pressure changes by exchanging air from outside the enclosure. Any design for volume
accommodation shall maintain the integrity of the enclosure as specified in paragraph 4.2.3. of this annex
over the specified temperature range.
Any method of volume accommodation shall limit the differential between the enclosure internal pressure and
the barometric pressure to a maximum value of ±0.5 kPa.
The enclosure shall be capable of latching to a fixed volume. A variable volume enclosure shall be capable of
accommodating a +7 per cent change from its "nominal volume" (see paragraph 4.2.3.1.1. of this annex),
taking into account temperature and barometric pressure variation during testing.
4.2.2. Fixed-volume enclosure
The fixed-volume enclosure shall be constructed with rigid panels that maintain a fixed enclosure volume, and
meet the requirements below.
4.2.2.1. The enclosure shall be equipped with an outlet flow stream that withdraws air at a low, constant rate from the
enclosure throughout the test. An inlet flow stream may provide make-up air to balance the outgoing flow
with incoming ambient air. Inlet air shall be filtered with activated carbon to provide a relatively constant
hydrocarbon level. Any method of volume accommodation shall maintain the differential between the
enclosure internal pressure and the barometric pressure between 0 and -0.5 kPa.
4.2.2.2. The equipment shall be capable of measuring the mass of hydrocarbon in the inlet and outlet flow streams with
a resolution of 0.01 gram. A bag sampling system may be used to collect a proportional sample of the air
withdrawn from and admitted to the enclosure. Alternatively, the inlet and outlet flow streams may be
continuously analysed using an on-line FID analyser and integrated with the flow measurements to provide a
continuous record of the mass hydrocarbon removal.
4.2.3. Calibration of the enclosure
4.2.3.1. Initial determination of internal volume of the enclosure
4.2.3.1.1. Before its initial use, the internal volume of the chamber shall be determined as follows:
The internal dimensions of the chamber are carefully measured, allowing for any irregularities such as bracing
struts. The internal volume of the chamber is determined from these measurements.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 647/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
For variable-volume enclosures, the enclosure shall be latched to a fixed volume when the enclosure is held at
an ambient temperature of 30 °C or at the choice of the manufacturer 29 °C. This nominal volume shall be
repeatable within ±0.5 per cent of the reported value.
4.2.3.1.2. The net internal volume is determined by subtracting 1.42 m3 from the internal volume of the chamber.
Alternatively the volume of the test vehicle with the luggage compartment and windows open may be used
instead of the 1.42 m3.
4.2.3.1.3. The chamber shall be checked as in paragraph 4.2.3.3. of this annex. If the propane mass does not correspond
to the injected mass to within ±2 per cent, then corrective action is required.
4.2.3.2. Determination of chamber background emissions
This operation determines that the chamber does not contain any materials that emit significant amounts of
hydrocarbons. The check shall be carried out at the enclosure's introduction to service, after any operations in
the enclosure which may affect background emissions and at a frequency of at least once per year.
4.2.3.2.1. Variable-volume enclosures may be operated in either latched or unlatched volume configuration, as described
in paragraph 4.2.3.1.1. of this annex, ambient temperatures shall be maintained at 35 °C ± 2 °C, or at the choice
of the manufacturer 36 °C ± 2 °C, throughout the 4-hour period mentioned below.
4.2.3.2.2. Fixed volume enclosures shall be operated with the inlet and outlet flow streams closed. Ambient temperatures
shall be maintained at 35 °C ± 2 °C, or at the choice of the manufacturer 36 °C ± 2 °C, throughout the 4-hour
period mentioned below.
4.2.3.2.3. The enclosure may be sealed and the mixing fan operated for a period of up to 12 hours before the 4-hour
background sampling period begins.
4.2.3.2.4. The analyser (if required) shall be calibrated, then zeroed and spanned.
4.2.3.2.5. The enclosure shall be purged until a stable hydrocarbon reading is obtained, and the mixing fan turned on if
not already on.
4.2.3.2.6. The chamber is then sealed and the background hydrocarbon concentration, temperature and barometric
pressure are measured. These are the initial readings C , P, T used in the enclosure background calculation.
HCi i i
4.2.3.2.7. The enclosure is allowed to stand undisturbed with the mixing fan on for a period of four hours.
4.2.3.2.8. At the end of this time the same analyser is used to measure the hydrocarbon concentration in the chamber.
The temperature and the barometric pressure are also measured. These are the final readings C , P, T
HCf f f.
4.2.3.2.9. The change in mass of hydrocarbons in the enclosure shall be calculated over the time of the test in accordance
with paragraph 4.2.3.4. of this annex and shall not exceed 0.05 g.

OJ L, 26.6.2026
4.2.3.3. Calibration and hydrocarbon retention test of the chamber
The calibration and hydrocarbon retention test in the chamber provides a check on the calculated volume in
paragraph 4.2.3.1. of this annex and also measures any leak rate. The enclosure leak rate shall be determined
at the enclosure's introduction to service, after any operations in the enclosure which may affect the integrity
of the enclosure, and at least monthly thereafter. If six consecutive monthly retention checks are successfully
completed without corrective action, the enclosure leak rate may be determined quarterly thereafter as long as
no corrective action is required.
4.2.3.3.1. The enclosure shall be purged until a stable hydrocarbon concentration is reached. The mixing fan is turned on,
if not already switched on. The hydrocarbon analyser is zeroed, calibrated if required, and spanned.
4.2.3.3.2. On variable-volume enclosures, the enclosure shall be latched to the nominal volume position. On fixed-
volume enclosures the outlet and inlet flow streams shall be closed.
4.2.3.3.3. The ambient temperature control system is then turned on (if not already on) and adjusted for an initial
temperature of 35 °C, or at the choice of the manufacturer 36 °C.
4.2.3.3.4. When the enclosure stabilises at 35 °C ± 2 °C, or at the choice of the manufacturer 36 °C ± 2 °C, the enclosure is
sealed and the background concentration, temperature and barometric pressure measured. These are the initial
readings C , P, T used in the enclosure calibration.
HCi i i
4.2.3.3.5. A quantity of approximately 4 grams of propane is injected into the enclosure. The mass of propane shall be
measured to an accuracy and precision of ±2 per cent of the measured value.
4.2.3.3.6. The contents of the chamber shall be allowed to mix for five minutes and then the hydrocarbon concentration,
temperature and barometric pressure are measured. These are the readings C , P, T for the calibration of the
HCf f f
enclosure as well as the initial readings C , P, T for the retention check.
HCi i i
4.2.3.3.7. Based on the readings taken according to paragraph 4.2.3.3.4. and 4.2.3.3.6. of this annex and the formula in
paragraph 4.2.3.4. of this annex, the mass of propane in the enclosure is calculated. This shall be within
±2 per cent of the mass of propane measured in paragraph 4.2.3.3.5. of this annex.
4.2.3.3.8. For variable-volume enclosures the enclosure shall be unlatched from the nominal volume configuration. For
fixed-volume enclosures, the outlet and inlet flow streams shall be opened.
4.2.3.3.9. The process is then begun by cycling the ambient temperature from 35 °C to 20 °C and back to 35 °C, or at the
choice of the manufacturer 35.6 °C to 22.2 °C and back to 35.6 °C, over a 24-hour period according to the
profile, or the alternative profile, specified in paragraph 6.5.9. of this annex within 15 minutes of sealing the
enclosure. (Tolerances as specified in paragraph 6.5.9.1. of this annex.)
4.2.3.3.10. At the completion of the 24-hour cycling period, the final hydrocarbon concentration, temperature and
barometric pressure are measured and recorded. These are the final readings C , P, T for the hydrocarbon
HCf f f
retention check.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 649/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
4.2.3.3.11. Using the formula in paragraph 4.2.3.4. of this annex, the hydrocarbon mass is then calculated from the
readings taken in paragraphs 4.2.3.3.6. and 4.2.3.3.10. of this annex. The mass may not differ by more than 3
per cent from the hydrocarbon mass given in paragraph 4.2.3.3.7. of this annex.
4.2.3.4. Calculations
The calculation of net hydrocarbon mass change within the enclosure is used to determine the chamber's
hydrocarbon background and leak rate. Initial and final readings of hydrocarbon concentration, temperature
and barometric pressure are used to calculate the mass change.
The calculation shall be undertaken in accordance with the equation in either paragraph 7.1. or alternatively
paragraph 7.1.1. of this annex, using the following value for V.
V is the net enclosure volume, m3.
4.3. Analytical systems
The analytical systems shall meet the requirements of paragraphs 4.3.1. to. 4.3.3. of this annex.
Continuous measuring of hydrocarbons is not mandatory unless the fixed volume type enclosure is used.
4.3.1. Hydrocarbon analyser
4.3.1.1. The atmosphere within the chamber is monitored using a hydrocarbon detector of the FID type. Sample gas
shall be drawn from the mid-point of one side wall or roof of the chamber and any bypass flow shall be
returned to the enclosure, preferably to a point immediately downstream of the mixing fan.
4.3.1.2. The hydrocarbon analyser shall have a response time to 90 per cent of final reading of less than 1.5 seconds. Its
stability shall be better than 2 per cent of full scale at zero and at 80 ± 20 per cent of full scale over a 15-minute
period for all operational ranges.
4.3.1.3. The repeatability of the analyser expressed as one standard deviation shall be better than ±1 per cent of full
scale deflection at zero and at 80 ± 20 per cent of full scale on all ranges used.
4.3.1.4. The operational ranges of the analyser shall be chosen to give best resolution over the measurement, calibration
and leak checking procedures.
4.3.2. Hydrocarbon analyser data recording system
4.3.2.1. The hydrocarbon analyser shall be fitted with a device to record electrical signal output either by strip chart
recorder or other data processing system at a frequency of at least once per minute. The recording system shall
have operating characteristics at least equivalent to the signal being recorded and shall provide a permanent
record of results. The record shall show a positive indication of the beginning and end of the hot soak or
diurnal emission test (including beginning and end of sampling periods along with the time elapsed between
start and completion of each test).
4.3.3. Checking of FID hydrocarbon analyser
4.3.3.1. Detector response optimisation
The FID shall be adjusted as specified by the instrument manufacturer. Propane in air should be used to
optimise the response on the most common operating range.

OJ L, 26.6.2026
4.3.3.2. Calibration of the hydrocarbon analyser
The analyser should be calibrated using propane in air and purified synthetic air. See paragraph 6.2. of Annex
B5 of this Regulation.
Each of the normally used operating ranges are calibrated in accordance with paragraphs 4.3.3.2.1. to
4.3.3.2.4. of this annex.
4.3.3.2.1. Establish the calibration curve by at least five calibration points spaced as evenly as possible over the operating
range. The nominal concentration of the calibration gas with the highest concentrations to be at least 80 per
cent of the full scale.
4.3.3.2.2. Calculate the calibration curve by the method of least squares. If the resulting polynomial degree is greater than
3, then the number of calibration points shall be at least the number of the polynomial degree plus 2.
4.3.3.2.3. The calibration curve shall not differ by more than 2 per cent from the nominal value of each calibration gas.
4.3.3.2.4. Using the coefficients of the polynomial derived from paragraph 5 of Annex B5, a table of indicated reading
against true concentration shall be drawn up in steps of no greater than 1 per cent of full scale. This is to be
carried out for each analyser range calibrated. The table shall also contain other relevant data such as:
(a) Date of calibration, span and zero potentiometer readings (where applicable);
(b) Nominal scale;
(c) Reference data of each calibration gas used;
(d) The actual and indicated value of each calibration gas used together with the percentage differences;
(e) FID fuel and type;
(f) FID air pressure.
4.3.3.2.5. If it can be shown to the satisfaction of the responsible authority that alternative technology (e.g. computer,
electronically controlled range switch) can give equivalent accuracy, then those alternatives may be used.
4.4. Temperature recording system
The temperature recording system shall meet the requirements of paragraphs 4.4.1. to 4.4.5. of this annex.
4.4.1. The temperature in the chamber is recorded at two points by temperature sensors which are connected so as to

ANNEX C4
Type 5 test
Durability
(Description of the endurance test for verifying the durability of pollution control devices)
1. Introduction
1.1. This annex describes the test for verifying the durability of pollution control devices equipping vehicles with
positive ignition or compression-ignition engines.
For Level 1A and 4-phase WLTP in Level 2 only:
For the purpose of type-approval the manufacturer shall provide the granting approval authority with a signed
declaration of compliance with the emission durability requirements of the emission control systems. This
declaration of compliance replaces the requirements for testing in accordance with this Annex at type-
approval.
The declaration of compliance shall also include the applicable deterioration factors determined in accordance
with the procedures given in this Annex or any other appropriate means at the choice of the manufacturer.
A template for the manufacturer's declaration of compliance with the emission durability requirements of the
emission control systems is laid down in Appendix 4 of Annex A2.
For Level 1B and 3-phase WLTP in Level 2:
The durability requirements shall be demonstrated using one of the two options set out in paragraphs 1.2.
and 1.4. below.
1.2. The whole vehicle durability test shall preferably be performed on a vehicle with the cycle energy demand of
the VH (as defined in paragraph 4.2.1.1.2. of Annex B4) with the highest cycle energy demand of all of the
Interpolation Families to be included in the durability family and shall be driven on a test track, on the road, or
on a chassis dynamometer. The cycle energy demand of the test vehicle may be further increased to cover
future extensions.
1.3. This paragraph is applicable to Level 1A only;
The manufacturer may choose to use a bench ageing durability test. The technical requirements for this test are
set out in paragraph 2.2. of this annex.
1.4. As an alternative to durability testing, where applicable a manufacturer may choose to apply the assigned
deterioration factors from Table 3A and Table 3B (as applicable) in paragraph 6.7.2. of this Regulation.
1.5. This paragraph is applicable to Level 1A only
At the request of the manufacturer, the Technical Service may carry out the Type 1 test before the whole vehicle
or bench ageing durability test has been completed using the assigned deterioration factors in Table 3A in
paragraph 6.7.2. of this Regulation. On completion of the whole vehicle or bench ageing durability test, the
Technical Service may then amend the type approval results recorded in Annex A2 to this Regulation by
replacing the assigned deterioration factors in the above table with those measured in the whole vehicle or
bench ageing durability test.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 671/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
1.6. Deterioration factors are determined using either the procedures set out in paragraphs 1.2. and, where
applicable, paragraph 1.3. of this annex, or using the assigned values in the table referred in paragraph 1.4. of
this annex. The deterioration factors are used to establish compliance with the requirements of the appropriate
emissions limits set out in paragraph 6.3.10. of this Regulation during the target useful life of the vehicle.
1.7. This paragraph is applicable for Level 1B only
Notwithstanding the requirement of this annex, in the case that the vehicle that reached mileage of target useful
life by pattern A or pattern B described in Appendix 3b to this annex is provided to the type approval authority
and the result of Type 1 test with the vehicle fulfil the criteria of Table 1B described in paragraph 6.3.10. of this
Regulation, the durability requirement is regarded to be satisfied.
2. Technical requirements
2.1. As the operating cycle for the whole vehicle durability test, the vehicle manufacturer shall use the Standard
Road Cycle (SRC) described in Appendix 3 to this annex. This test cycle shall be conducted until the vehicle
has covered its target useful life.
For Level 1B only:
As the operating cycle for the whole vehicle durability test, the vehicle manufacturer shall choose one of the
driving cycles described in Appendix 3b to this annex.
2.2. Bench ageing durability test
This paragraph is applicable to Level 1A only
2.2.1. For the execution of the bench ageing durability tests the vehicle used for the catalyst and/or particle filter
temperature measurements shall be VH.
The fuel to be used during the test shall be the one specified in paragraph 4. of this annex.
2.3. This paragraph is applicable to Level 1A only
The bench ageing durability test to be used shall be the one appropriate to the type of engine, as detailed in
paragraphs 2.3.1. and 2.3.2. of this annex.
2.3.1. Vehicles with positive ignition engines
2.3.1.1. The bench ageing procedure requires the installation of the whole exhaust after-treatment system on an ageing
bench.
Ageing on the bench shall be conducted by following the Standard Bench Cycle (SBC) for the period of time
calculated from the Bench Ageing Time (BAT) equation. The BAT equation requires, as input, catalyst time-at-
temperature data measured on the SRC, as described in paragraph 2.3.1.3.
2.3.1.2. SBC
Standard catalyst bench ageing shall be conducted following the SBC. The SBC shall be run for the period of
time calculated from the BAT equation. The SBC is described in Appendix 1 to this annex.
672/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
2.3.1.3. Catalyst time-at-temperature data
Catalyst temperature shall be measured during at least two full cycles of the SRC cycle as described in
Appendix 3 to this annex.
Catalyst temperature shall be measured at the highest temperature location in the hottest catalyst on the test
vehicle. Alternatively, the temperature may be measured at another location providing that it is adjusted to
represent the temperature measured at the hottest location using good engineering judgement.
Catalyst temperature shall be measured at a minimum rate of one hertz (one measurement per second).
The measured catalyst temperature results shall be tabulated into a histogram with temperature groups of no
larger than 25 °C.
2.3.1.4. The Bench Ageing Time (BAT) shall be calculated using the BAT equation as follows:
te for a temperature bin = th e((R/Tr)-(R/Tv))
Total te = Sum of te over all the temperature groups
Bench Ageing Time = A × (Total te)
Where:
A = 1.1 This value adjusts the catalyst ageing time to account for deterioration from sources
other than thermal ageing of the catalyst.
R = Catalyst thermal reactivity = 17,500
th = The time (in hours) measured within the prescribed temperature bin of the vehicle's
catalyst temperature histogram adjusted to a full useful life basis e.g., if the
histogram represented 400 km, and useful life is 160,000 km; all histogram time
entries would be multiplied by 400 (160,000/400).
Total te = The equivalent time (in hours) to age the catalyst at the temperature of Tr on the
catalyst ageing bench using the catalyst ageing cycle to produce the same amount
of deterioration experienced by the catalyst due to thermal deactivation over the
160,000 km.
te for a = The equivalent time (in hours) to age the catalyst at the temperature of Tr on the
bin catalyst ageing bench using the catalyst ageing cycle to produce the same amount
of deterioration experienced by the catalyst due to thermal deactivation at the
temperature bin of Tv over 160,000 km.
Tr = The effective reference temperature (in K) of the catalyst on the catalyst bench run
on the bench ageing cycle. The effective temperature is the constant temperature
that would result in the same amount of ageing as the various temperatures
experienced during the bench ageing cycle.
Tv = The mid-point temperature (in K) of the temperature bin of the vehicle on-road
catalyst temperature histogram.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 673/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
2.3.1.5. Effective reference temperature on the SBC. The effective reference temperature of the SBC shall be determined
for the actual catalyst system design and actual ageing bench which will be used using the following procedures:
(a) Measure time-at-temperature data in the catalyst system on the catalyst ageing bench following the SBC.
Catalyst temperature shall be measured at the highest temperature location of the hottest catalyst in the
system. Alternatively, the temperature may be measured at another location providing that it is adjusted
to represent the temperature measured at the hottest location.
Catalyst temperature shall be measured at a minimum rate of one hertz (one measurement per second)
during at least 20 minutes of bench ageing. The measured catalyst temperature results shall be tabulated
into a histogram with temperature groups of no larger than 10 °C.
(b) The BAT equation shall be used to calculate the effective reference temperature by iterative changes to the
reference temperature (Tr) until the calculated ageing time equals or exceeds the actual time represented
in the catalyst temperature histogram. The resulting temperature is the effective reference temperature
on the SBC for that catalyst system and ageing bench.
2.3.1.6. Catalyst ageing bench. The catalyst ageing bench shall follow the SBC and deliver the appropriate exhaust flow,
exhaust constituents, and exhaust temperature at the face of the catalyst.
All bench ageing equipment shall record appropriate information (such as measured A/F ratios and time-at-
temperature in the catalyst) to assure that the bench-ageing test is documented to demonstrate that sufficient
ageing has actually occurred.
2.3.1.7. Required testing. For calculating deterioration factors at least two Type 1 tests before bench ageing of the
emission control hardware and at least two Type 1 tests after the bench-aged emission hardware is reinstalled
have to be performed on the test vehicle.
Additional testing may be conducted by the manufacturer. Calculation of the deterioration factors has to be
done according to the calculation method as specified in paragraph 7. of this annex.
2.3.2. Vehicles with compression ignition engines
2.3.2.1. The following bench ageing procedure is applicable for compression-ignition vehicles including hybrid
vehicles.
The bench ageing procedure requires the installation of the after-treatment system on an after-treatment system
ageing bench.
In case of exhaust after-treatment system using reagent, the whole injection system shall be fitted and working
for ageing.
Ageing on the bench is conducted by following the Standard Diesel Bench Cycle (SDBC) for the number of
regenerations/desulphurisations calculated from the Bench Ageing Duration (BAD) equation.
2.3.2.2. SDBC. Standard bench ageing is conducted following the SDBC. The SDBC shall be run for the period of time
calculated from the BAD equation. The SDBC is described in Appendix 2 to this annex.
2.3.2.3. Regeneration data. Regeneration intervals shall be measured during at least 10 full cycles of the SRC cycle as
described in Appendix 3 to this annex. As an alternative the intervals from the K determination may be used.
i
If applicable, desulphurisation intervals shall also be considered based on manufacturer's data.

OJ L, 26.6.2026
2.3.2.4. Diesel bench ageing duration. Bench ageing duration is calculated using the BAD equation as follows:
Bench ageing duration = number of regeneration and/or desulphurisation cycles (whichever is the longer)
equivalent to 160,000 km of driving.
2.3.2.5. Ageing bench. The ageing bench shall follow the SDBC and deliver appropriate exhaust flow, exhaust
constituents, and exhaust temperature to the after-treatment system inlet.
The manufacturer shall record the number of regenerations/desulphurisations (if applicable) to assure that
sufficient ageing has actually occurred.
2.3.2.6. Required testing. For calculating deterioration factors at least two Type 1 tests before bench ageing of the
emission control hardware and at least two Type 1 tests after the bench-aged emission hardware is reinstalled
have to be performed on VH. Additional testing may be conducted by the manufacturer. Calculation of the
deterioration factors shall be done according to the calculation method set out in paragraph 7. of this annex
and with the additional requirements contained in this Regulation.
3. Test vehicle
3.1. The vehicle shall be VH. It shall be in good mechanical order; the engine and the pollution control devices shall
be new. The vehicle may be the same as that presented for the Type 1 test; in this case the Type 1 test has to be
done after the vehicle has run at least 3,000 km of the ageing cycle of Appendix 3 or Appendix 3b (as
applicable) to this annex.
3.1.1. Special requirements for hybrid vehicles are provided in Appendix 4 to this annex.
4. Fuel
The durability test is conducted with a suitable commercially available fuel.
5. Vehicle maintenance and adjustments
Maintenance, adjustments as well as the use of the test vehicle's controls shall be those recommended by the
manufacturer. If during the execution of the whole vehicle durability test the vehicle experiences a failure not
related to emissions and/or fuel consumption and/or energy consumption, the manufacturer can fix the
vehicle and continue with the durability test. Otherwise the manufacturer shall consult the approval authority
to find a commonly agreed solution.
6. Vehicle operation on track, road or on chassis dynamometer
6.1. Operating cycle
During operation on track, road or on roller test bench, the distance shall be covered according to the driving
schedule described in Appendix 3 or Appendix 3b (as applicable) to this annex.
6.2. The durability test, or if the manufacturer has chosen, the modified durability test shall be conducted until the
vehicle has covered its target useful life.
6.3. Test equipment
6.3.1. Chassis dynamometer
6.3.1.1. When the durability test is performed on a chassis dynamometer, the dynamometer shall enable the cycle
described in Appendix 3 or Appendix 3b (as applicable) to this annex to be carried out. In particular, it shall
be equipped with systems simulating inertia and resistance to progress.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 675/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
6.3.1.2. The road load coefficients to be used shall be those for vehicle high (VH).
6.3.1.3. The vehicle cooling system should enable the vehicle to operate at temperatures similar to those obtained on
road (oil, water, exhaust system, etc.).
6.3.1.4. Certain other test bench adjustments and features are deemed to be identical, where necessary, to those
described in Annex B5 to this Regulation (inertia, for example, which may be mechanical or electronic).
6.3.1.5. The vehicle may be moved, where necessary, to a different bench in order to conduct emission measurement
tests.
6.3.2. Operation on track or road
When the durability test is completed on track or road, the test mass of the vehicle shall be the same as that
retained for tests conducted on a chassis dynamometer.
7. Measuring emissions of pollutants
A first test is carried out when the vehicle has reached a mileage between 3,000 km and 5,000 km. Further tests
are carried out at 20,000 km (±400 km) and then every 20,000 km (±400 km) or more frequently, at regular
intervals until having covered the target useful life. Exhaust emissions are measured in accordance with the
Type 1 Test as defined in paragraph 6.3. of this Regulation. At the choice of the manufacturer any of the above
tests can be repeated. In such a case the average value of all the repeated tests shall be considered as a single
value for the relevant mileage. After the target useful life required for Level 1B has been driven, it is no longer
necessary to separately record the emissions results from the first 3 phases of WLTP.
The limit values to be complied with are those laid down in paragraph 6.3.10. of this Regulation.
In the case of vehicles equipped with periodically regenerating systems as defined in paragraph 3.8.1. of this
Regulation, it shall be checked that the vehicle is not approaching a regeneration period. If this is the case, the
vehicle shall be driven until the end of the regeneration. If a regeneration occurs during the emissions
measurement, a new test (including preconditioning) shall be performed, and the first result not taken into
account.
All exhaust emissions results shall be plotted as a function of the running distance on the system rounded to
the nearest kilometre and the best fit straight line fitted by the method of least squares shall be drawn through
all these data points.
For Level 1A and the criteria emissions from the 4 phases of a WLTP test in Level 2
The data will be acceptable for use in the calculation of the deterioration factor only if the interpolated
5,000 km and target useful life points on this line are within the above mentioned limits.
The data are still acceptable when a best fit straight line crosses an applicable limit with a negative slope (the
5,000 km interpolated point is higher than the target useful life point) but the target useful life actual data
point is below the limit.
For Level 1B and the criteria emissions from the first 3 phases of a WLTP test in Level 2
The data will be acceptable for use in the calculation of the deterioration factor only if the extrapolated
3,000 km and the target useful life points on this line are within the above mentioned limits.
676/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
7.1. A multiplicative exhaust emission deterioration factor shall be calculated for each pollutant as follows:
D:E:F:
¼Mi2
Mi1
Where:
Mi = For Level 1A and the criteria emissions from the 4 phases of a WLTP test in Level 2 - mass emission of
1
the pollutant i in g/km (#/km in case of particle number) interpolated to 5,000 km,
For Level 1B and the criteria emissions from the first 3 phases of a WLTP test in Level 2 - mass
emission of the pollutant i in g/km (#/km in case of particle number) extrapolated to 3,000 km
Mi = mass emission of the pollutant i in g/km (#/km in case of particle number) interpolated to the target
2
useful life
These interpolated values shall be carried out to a minimum of four places to the right of the decimal point
before dividing one by the other to determine the deterioration factor. The result shall be rounded to three
places to the right of the decimal point.
If a deterioration factor is less than one, it is deemed to be equal to one.
At the request of a manufacturer, an additive exhaust emission deterioration factor shall be calculated for each
pollutant as follows:
D . E . F . = Mi – Mi
2 1
If the additive deterioration factor calculated with the above formula is negative, then it shall be put equal to
zero.
These additive deterioration factors shall follow the same rules described for the multiplicative deterioration
factors in relation to Level 1A and the criteria emissions from the 4 phases of a WLTP test in Level 2 and Level
1B and the criteria emissions from the first 3 phases of a WLTP test in Level 2.

Annex C4 - Appendix 1
Standard Bench Cycle (SBC)
This appendix is applicable to Level 1A only
1. Introduction
The standard ageing durability procedure consists of ageing a catalyst/oxygen and/or air fuel ratio sensor
system on an ageing bench which follows the Standard Bench Cycle (SBC) described in this appendix. The SBC
requires the use of an ageing bench with an engine as the source of feed gas for the catalyst. The SBC is
a 60-second cycle which is repeated as necessary on the ageing bench to conduct ageing for the required
period of time. The SBC is defined based on the catalyst temperature, engine air/fuel (A/F) ratio, and the
amount of secondary air injection which is added in front of the first catalyst.
2. Catalyst temperature control
2.1. Catalyst temperature shall be measured in the catalyst bed at the location where the highest temperature occurs
in the hottest catalyst. Alternatively, the feed gas temperature may be measured and converted to catalyst bed
temperature using a linear transform calculated from correlation data collected on the catalyst design and
ageing bench to be used in the ageing process.
2.2. Control the catalyst temperature at stoichiometric operation (01 to 40 seconds on the cycle) to a minimum of
800 °C (±10 °C) by selecting the appropriate engine speed, load, and spark timing for the engine. Control the
maximum catalyst temperature that occurs during the cycle to 890 °C (±10 °C) by selecting the
appropriate A/F ratio of the engine during the "rich" phase described in Table C4 App1/2.
2.3. If a low control temperature other than 800 °C is utilized, the high control temperature shall be 90 °C higher
than the low control temperature.

Standard Bench Cycle
3. Ageing bench equipment and procedures
3.1. Ageing bench configuration. The ageing bench shall provide the appropriate exhaust flow rate, temperature,
air-fuel ratio, exhaust constituents and secondary air injection at the inlet face of the catalyst.
The standard ageing bench consists of an engine, engine controller, and engine dynamometer. Other
configurations may be acceptable (e.g. whole vehicle on a dynamometer, or a burner that provides the correct
exhaust conditions), as long as the catalyst inlet conditions and control features specified in this appendix
are met.
A single ageing bench may have the exhaust flow split into several streams providing that each exhaust stream
meets the requirements of this appendix. If the bench has more than one exhaust stream, multiple catalyst
systems may be aged simultaneously.
3.2. Exhaust system installation. The entire catalyst(s)-plus-oxygen and/or air fuel ratio sensor(s) system, together
with all exhaust piping which connects these components, will be installed on the bench. For engines with
multiple exhaust streams (such as some V6 and V8 engines), each bank of the exhaust system will be installed
separately on the bench in parallel.
For exhaust systems that contain multiple in-line catalysts, the entire catalyst system including all catalysts, all
oxygen and/or air fuel ratio sensors and the associated exhaust piping will be installed as a unit for ageing.
Alternatively, each individual catalyst may be separately aged for the appropriate period of time.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 679/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
3.3. Temperature measurement. Catalyst temperature shall be measured using a thermocouple placed in the catalyst
bed at the location where the highest temperature occurs in the hottest catalyst. Alternatively, the feed gas
temperature just before the catalyst inlet face may be measured and converted to catalyst bed temperature
using a linear transform calculated from correlation data collected on the catalyst design and ageing bench to
be used in the ageing process. The catalyst temperature shall be stored digitally at the speed of 1 Hz.
3.4. Air/Fuel measurement. Provisions shall be made for the measurement of the air/fuel (A/F) ratio (such as a wide-
range oxygen sensor) as close as possible to the catalyst inlet and outlet flanges. The information from these
sensors shall be stored digitally at the speed of 1 Hz.
3.5. Exhaust flow balance. Provisions shall be made to assure that the proper amount of exhaust (measured in
grams/second at stoichiometry, with a tolerance of ±5 grams/second) flows through each catalyst system that
is being aged on the bench.
The proper flow rate is determined based upon the exhaust flow that would occur in the original vehicle’s
engine at the steady state engine speed and load selected for the bench ageing in paragraph 3.6. of this
appendix.
3.6. Setup. The engine speed, load, and spark timing are selected to achieve a catalyst bed temperature of 800 °C
(±10 °C) at steady-state stoichiometric operation.
The air injection system is set to provide the necessary air flow to produce 3.0 per cent oxygen (±0.1 %) in the
steady-state stoichiometric exhaust stream just in front of the first catalyst. A typical reading at the
upstream A/F measurement point (required in paragraph 3.4. of this appendix) is lambda 1.16 (which is
approximately 3 per cent oxygen).
With the air injection on, set the "Rich" A/F ratio to produce a catalyst bed temperature of 890 °C (±10 °C). A
typical A/F value for this step is lambda 0.94 (approximately 2 per cent CO).
3.7. Ageing cycle. The standard bench ageing procedures use the SBC. The SBC is repeated until the amount of
ageing calculated from the BAT equation is achieved.
3.8. Quality assurance. The temperatures and A/F ratio in paragraphs 3.3. and 3.4. of this appendix shall be
reviewed periodically (at least every 50 hours) during ageing. Necessary adjustments shall be made to assure
that the SBC is being appropriately followed throughout the ageing process.
After the ageing has been completed, the catalyst time-at-temperature collected during the ageing process shall
be tabulated into a histogram with temperature groups of no larger than 10 °C. The BAT equation and the
calculated effective reference temperature for the ageing cycle according to paragraph 2.3.1.4. of this annex
shall be used to determine if the appropriate amount of thermal ageing of the catalyst has in fact occurred.
Bench ageing will be extended if the thermal effect of the calculated ageing time is not at least 95 per cent of
the target thermal ageing.
3.9. Start up and Shutdown. Care should be taken to assure that the maximum catalyst temperature for rapid
deterioration (e.g. 1,050 °C) does not occur during start up or shut down. Special low temperature start up
and shutdown procedures may be used to alleviate this concern.
4. Experimentally determining the R-factor for bench ageing durability procedures
4.1. The R-Factor is the catalyst thermal reactivity coefficient used in the BAT equation. Manufacturers may
determine the value of R experimentally using the following procedures.
680/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
4.1.1. Using the applicable bench cycle and ageing bench hardware, age several catalysts (minimum of 3 of the same
catalyst design) at different control temperatures between the normal operating temperature and the damage
limit temperature. Measure emissions (or catalyst inefficiency (1-catalyst efficiency)) for each exhaust
constituent. Assure that the final testing yields data between one- and two-times the emission standard.
4.1.2. Estimate the value of R and calculate the effective reference temperature (Tr) for the bench ageing cycle for each
control temperature according to paragraph 2.3.1.4. of this annex.
4.1.3. Plot emissions (or catalyst inefficiency) versus ageing time for each catalyst. Calculate the least-squared best-fit
line through the data. For the data set to be useful for this purpose the data should have an approximately
common intercept between 0 and 6,400 km. See Figure C4 App1/3 for an example.
4.1.4. Calculate the slope of the best-fit line for each ageing temperature.
Figure C4 App1/3
Example of catalyst ageing
4.1.5. Plot the natural log (ln) of the slope of each best-fit line (determined in paragraph 4.1.4. of this appendix) along
the vertical axis, versus the inverse of ageing temperature (1/(ageing temperature, deg K)) along the horizontal
axis. Calculate the least squared best-fit lines through the data. The slope of the line is the R-factor. See
Figure C4 App1/4 for an example.
4.1.6. Compare the R-factor to the initial value that was used in paragraph 4.1.2. of this appendix. If the calculated
R-factor differs from the initial value by more than 5 per cent, choose a new R-factor that is between the initial
and calculated values, and then repeat the steps in paragraphs 4.1.2. to 4.1.6. of this appendix to derive a new
R-factor. Repeat this process until the calculated R-factor is within 5 per cent of the initially assumed R-factor.

for the BAT equation.

Standard Diesel Bench Cycle (SDBC)
This appendix applies to Level 1A only
1. Introduction
For particulate filters, the number of regenerations is critical to the ageing process. For systems that require
desulphurisation cycles (e.g. NOx storage catalysts), this process is also significant.
The standard diesel bench ageing durability procedure consists of ageing an after-treatment system on an
ageing bench which follows the SDBC described in this appendix. The SDBC requires use of an ageing bench
with an engine as the source of feed gas for the system.
During the SDBC, the regeneration/desulphurisation strategies of the system shall remain in normal operating
condition.
2. The SDBC reproduces the engine speed and load conditions that are encountered in the SRC cycle as
appropriate to the period for which durability is to be determined. In order to accelerate the process of ageing,
the engine settings on the test bench may be modified to reduce the system loading times. For example the fuel
injection timing or EGR strategy may be modified.
3. Ageing bench equipment and procedures
3.1. The standard ageing bench consists of an engine, engine controller, and engine dynamometer. Other
configurations may be acceptable (e.g. whole vehicle on a dynamometer, or a burner that provides the correct
exhaust conditions), as long as the after-treatment system inlet conditions and control features specified in this
appendix are met.
A single ageing bench may have the exhaust flow split into several streams provided that each exhaust stream
meets the requirements of this appendix. If the bench has more than one exhaust stream, multiple after-
treatment systems may be aged simultaneously.
3.2. Exhaust system installation. The entire after-treatment system, together with all exhaust piping which connects
these components, will be installed on the bench. For engines with multiple exhaust streams (such as some V6
and V8 engines), each bank of the exhaust system will be installed separately on the bench.
The entire after-treatment system will be installed as a unit for ageing. Alternatively, each individual component
may be separately aged for the appropriate period of time.
In case of exhaust after-treatment system using reagent, the whole injection system shall be fitted and working
for ageing.

For OVC-HEVs:

calculated Utility Factors UF (UF) for that vehicle from the beginning of the charge-depleting Type 1 test up to
j
phase j.
Phase j corresponds with the last phase of the transition cycle which is the end of the Charge-Depleting-Type 1
test.
Mileage accumulation shall be driven in the driver selectable mode that is always selected when the vehicle is
switched on (predominant mode) or in the mode which is recommended by the manufacturer (if no
predominant mode is available) after agreement of the Technical Service.
During the mileage accumulation a change into another hybrid mode is allowed if necessary in order to
continue the mileage accumulation after agreement of the Technical Service.
The measurements of emissions of pollutants shall be carried out under the same conditions as specified in
paragraph 3.2.5. of Annex B8.
3. For NOVC-HEVs:
Mileage accumulation shall be driven in the driver selectable mode which is always selected when the vehicle is
switched on (predominant mode) or in the mode which is recommended by the manufacturer (if no
predominant mode is available) after agreement of the Technical Service.
The measurements of emissions of pollutants shall be carried out in the same conditions as in the Type 1 test.

ANNEX C5
On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) for motor vehicles
1. Introduction
This annex applies to the functional aspects of On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) system for the emission control of
motor vehicles.
2. This paragraph is applicable to Level 1A and 4-phase WLTP in Level 2 only:
For the purpose of type-approval the manufacturer shall provide the granting approval authority with a signed
declaration of compliance with the OBD requirements. This declaration of compliance replaces the
requirements for testing in accordance with this Annex at type-approval.
A template for the manufacturer's declaration of compliance with the OBD requirements is laid down in
Appendix 5 of Annex A2.
3. Requirements and tests
3.1. All vehicles shall be equipped with an OBD system so designed, constructed and installed in a vehicle as to
enable it to identify types of deterioration or malfunction over the entire life of the vehicle. In achieving this
objective, the Type Approval Authority shall accept that vehicles which have travelled distances in excess of
the target useful life (according to paragraph 6.7. of this Regulation) referred to in paragraph 3.3.1. of this
annex, may show some deterioration in OBD system performance such that the OBD thresholds set out in
Table 4A and Table 4B (as applicable) in paragraph 6.8.2. of this Regulation may be exceeded before the OBD
system signals a failure to the driver of the vehicle.
3.1.1. Access to the OBD system required for the inspection, diagnosis, servicing or repair of the vehicle shall be
unrestricted and standardised. All emission-related fault codes shall be consistent with paragraph 6.5.3.5. of
Appendix 1 to this annex.
3.2. The OBD system shall be so designed, constructed and installed in a vehicle as to enable it to comply with the
requirements of this annex during conditions of normal use.
3.2.1. Temporary disablement of the OBD system
3.2.1.1. A manufacturer may disable the OBD system if its ability to monitor is affected by low fuel levels. Disablement
shall not occur when the fuel tank level is above 20 per cent of the nominal capacity of the fuel tank.
3.2.1.2. A manufacturer may disable any specific OBD monitor for a given driving cycle for ambient or engine coolant
temperatures below 266 K (-7 °C) or at elevations over 2,440 metres above sea level provided the manufacturer
submits data and/or an engineering evaluation which adequately demonstrate that monitoring would be
unreliable when such conditions exist. A manufacturer may also request disablement of any specific OBD
monitor at other ambient or engine coolant temperatures or other elevations if they demonstrate to the
authority with data and/or an engineering evaluation that misdiagnosis would occur under such conditions. It
is not necessary to illuminate the Malfunction Indicator (MI) if OBD thresholds are exceeded during a
regeneration provided no defect is present.
Engine coolant temperature is only deemed subject to approval, if it is used as a substitute to ambient
temperature.
690/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
3.2.1.3. For vehicles designed to accommodate the installation of power take-off units, disablement of affected
monitoring systems is permitted provided disablement occurs only when the power take-off unit is active.
In addition to the provisions of this paragraph the manufacturer may temporarily disable the OBD system in
the following conditions:
(a) For flex fuel or mono/bi fuel gas vehicles during 1 minute after re-fuelling to allow for the recognition of
fuel quality and composition by the ECU;
(b) For bi fuel vehicles during 5 seconds after fuel switching to allow for readjusting engine parameters;
(c) The manufacturer may deviate from these time limits if it can demonstrate that stabilisation of the
fuelling system after re-fuelling or fuel switching takes longer for justified technical reasons. In any case,
the OBD system shall be re-enabled as soon as either the fuel quality and composition is recognised, or
the engine parameters are readjusted.
3.2.2. Engine misfire in vehicles equipped with positive ignition engines
3.2.2.1. Manufacturers may adopt higher misfire percentage malfunction criteria than those declared to the authority,
under specific engine speed and load conditions where it can be demonstrated to the authority that the
detection of lower levels of misfire would be unreliable.
3.2.2.2. When a manufacturer can demonstrate to the authority that the detection of higher levels of misfire
percentages is still not feasible, or that misfire cannot be distinguished from other effects (e.g. rough roads,
transmission shifts, after engine starting; etc.) the misfire monitoring system may be disabled when such
conditions exist.
3.2.3. Identification of deterioration or malfunctions may also be done outside a driving cycle (e.g. after engine
shutdown).
3.3. Description of tests
3.3.1. The tests are carried out on the vehicle used for the Type 5 durability test, given in Annex C4 to this Regulation,
and using the test procedure in Appendix 1 to this annex. Tests are carried out at the conclusion of the Type 5
durability testing.
When no Type 5 durability testing is carried out, or at the request of the manufacturer, a suitably aged and
representative vehicle may be used for these OBD demonstration tests.
3.3.2. The OBD system shall indicate the failure of an emission-related component or system when that failure results
in emissions exceeding any of the OBD thresholds set out in paragraph 6.8.2. of this Regulation.
3.3.2.1. The OBD thresholds for vehicles that are type approved according to the emission limits set out in paragraph
6.3.10. of this Regulation are set out in Table 4A and Table 4B (as applicable) in paragraph 6.8.2. of this
Regulation.
3.3.3. Monitoring requirements for vehicles equipped with positive ignition engines.
In satisfying the requirements of paragraph 3.3.2. of this annex the OBD system shall, at a minimum,
monitor for:
3.3.3.1. The reduction in the efficiency of the catalytic converter with respect to emissions of NMHC and NOx.
Manufacturers may monitor the front catalyst alone or in combination with the next catalyst(s) downstream.
Each monitored catalyst or catalyst combination shall be considered malfunctioning when the emissions
exceed the NMHC or NOx OBD thresholds set out in paragraph 6.8.2. of this Regulation.

3.3.5. Manufacturers may demonstrate to the Type Approval Authority that certain components or systems need not
be monitored if, in the event of their total failure or removal, emissions do not exceed the OBD thresholds set
out in paragraph 6.8.2. of this Regulation.
3.3.5.1. This paragraph is applicable to Level 1A and Level 2 only
The following devices should however be monitored for total failure or removal (if removal would cause the
applicable emission limits in paragraph 6.3.10. of this Regulation to be exceeded):
(a) A particulate trap fitted to compression ignition engines as a separate unit or integrated into a combined
emission control device;
(b) A NOx after treatment system fitted to compression ignition engines as a separate unit or integrated into
a combined emission control device;
(c) A Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) fitted to compression ignition engines as a separate unit or integrated
into a combined emission control device.
3.3.5.2. This paragraph is applicable to Level 1A and Level 2 only
The devices referred to in paragraph 3.3.5.1. of this annex shall also be monitored for any failure that would
result in exceeding the applicable OBD thresholds set out in in paragraph 6.8.2. of this Regulation.
3.4. A sequence of diagnostic checks shall be initiated at each engine start and completed at least once provided that
the correct test conditions are met. The test conditions shall be selected in such a way that they all occur under
normal driving as represented by the Type 1 test.
3.5. Activation of malfunction indicator (MI)
3.5.1. The OBD system shall incorporate a malfunction indicator readily perceivable to the vehicle operator. The MI
shall not be used for any other purpose except to indicate emergency start-up, emission default modes or
limp-home routines to the driver. The MI shall be visible in all reasonable lighting conditions. When activated,
it shall display a symbol in conformity with ISO 2575. A vehicle shall not be equipped with more than one
general purpose MI for emission-related problems. Separate specific purpose tell tales (e. g. brake system,
fasten seat belt, oil pressure, etc.) are permitted. The use of red colour for an MI is prohibited.
3.5.2. For strategies requiring more than two preconditioning cycles for MI activation, the manufacturer shall provide
data and/or an engineering evaluation which adequately demonstrates that the monitoring system is equally
effective and timely in detecting component deterioration. Strategies requiring on average more than ten
driving cycles for MI activation are not accepted. The MI shall also activate whenever the engine control enters
a permanent emission default mode of operation if any of the OBD thresholds set out in paragraph 6.8.2. of
this Regulation are exceeded or if the OBD system is unable to fulfil the basic monitoring requirements
specified in paragraph 3.3.3. or 3.3.4. of this annex. The MI shall operate in a distinct warning mode, e.g. a
flashing light, under any period during which engine misfire occurs at a level likely to cause catalyst damage,
as specified by the manufacturer. The MI shall also activate when the vehicle's ignition is in the "key-on"
position before engine starting or cranking and de-activate after engine starting if no malfunction has
previously been detected.
3.6. Fault code storage
3.6.1. The OBD system shall record pending and confirmed fault code(s) indicating the status of the emission control
system. Separate status codes (readiness codes) shall be used to identify correctly functioning emission control
systems and those emission control systems which need further vehicle operation to be fully evaluated. If the
694/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
MI is activated due to deterioration or malfunction or permanent emission default modes of operation, a fault
code shall be stored that identifies the type of malfunction. A fault code shall also be stored in the cases
referred to in paragraphs 3.3.3.5. and 3.3.4. (e) of this annex.
3.6.2. The distance travelled by the vehicle while the MI is activated shall be available at any instant through the serial
port on the standard link connector.
3.6.3. In the case of vehicles equipped with positive ignition engines, misfiring cylinders need not be uniquely
identified if a distinct single or multiple cylinder misfire fault code is stored.
3.7. Extinguishing the MI
3.7.1. If misfire at levels likely to cause catalyst damage (as specified by the manufacturer) is not present any more, or
if the engine is operated after changes to speed and load conditions where the level of misfire will not cause
catalyst damage, the MI may be switched back to the previous state of activation during the first driving cycle
on which the misfire level was detected and may be switched to the normal activated mode on subsequent
driving cycles. If the MI is switched back to the previous state of activation, the corresponding fault codes and
stored freeze-frame conditions may be erased.
3.7.2. For all other malfunctions, the MI may be de-activated after three subsequent sequential driving cycles during
which the monitoring system responsible for activating the MI ceases to detect the malfunction and if no other
malfunction has been identified that would independently activate the MI.
3.8. Erasing a fault code
3.8.1. The OBD system may erase a confirmed fault code and the distance travelled and freeze-frame information if
the same fault is not re-registered in at least 40 engine warm-up cycles or 40 driving cycles with vehicle
operation in which the following criteria (a)-(c) are satisfied:
(a) Cumulative time since engine start is greater than or equal to 600 seconds;
(b) Cumulative vehicle operation at or above 40 km/h occurs for greater than or equal to 300 seconds;
(c) Continuous vehicle operation at idle (i.e. accelerator pedal released by driver and vehicle speed less than
or equal to 1.6 km/h) for greater than or equal to 30 seconds.
3.8.2. The OBD system may erase a pending fault code if the same fault is not detected before the end of the next
driving cycle in which monitoring occurs (i.e., there is no indication of the malfunction at any time during the
driving cycle).
3.9. Bi-fuelled gas vehicles
In general, for bi-fuelled gas vehicles for each of the fuel types (petrol and (NG/biomethane)/LPG)) all the OBD
requirements as for a mono-fuelled vehicle are applicable. To this end one of the following two options in
paragraphs 3.9.1. or 3.9.2. of this annex or any combination thereof, shall be used.
3.9.1. One OBD system for both fuel types.
3.9.1.1. The following procedures shall be executed for each diagnostic in a single OBD system for operation on petrol
and on (NG/biomethane)/LPG, either independent of the fuel currently in use or fuel type specific:
(a) Activation of malfunction indicator (MI) (see paragraph 3.5. of this annex);
(b) Fault code storage (see paragraph 3.6. of this annex);
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 695/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
(c) Extinguishing the MI (see paragraph 3.7. of this annex);
(d) Erasing a fault code (see paragraph 3.8. of this annex).
For components or systems to be monitored, either separate diagnostics for each fuel type can be used or a
common diagnostic.
3.9.1.2. The OBD system can reside in either one or more computers.
3.9.2. Two separate OBD systems, one for each fuel type.
3.9.2.1. The following procedures shall be executed independently of each other when the vehicle is operated on petrol
or on (NG/biomethane)/LPG:
(a) Activation of malfunction indicator (MI) (see paragraph 3.5. of this annex);
(b) Fault code storage (see paragraph 3.6. of this annex);
(c) Extinguishing the MI (see paragraph 3.7. of this annex);
(d) Erasing a fault code (see paragraph 3.8. of this annex).
3.9.2.2. The separate OBD systems can reside in either one or more computers.
3.9.3. Specific requirements regarding the transmission of diagnostic signals from bi-fuelled gas vehicles.
3.9.3.1. On a request from a diagnostic scan tool, the diagnostic signals shall be transmitted on one or more source
addresses. The use of source addresses is described in the standard listed in paragraph 6.5.3.2.(a) of Appendix
1 to this annex.
3.9.3.2. Identification of fuel specific information can be realized:
(a) By use of source addresses; and/or
(b) By use of a fuel select switch; and/or
(c) By use of fuel specific fault codes.
3.9.4. Regarding the status code (as described in paragraph 3.6. of this annex), one of the following two options has
to be used, if one or more of the diagnostics reporting readiness is fuel type specific:
(a) The status code is fuel specific, i.e. use of two status codes, one for each fuel type;
(b) The status code shall indicate fully evaluated control systems for both fuel types (petrol and (NG/
biomethane)/LPG)) when the control systems are fully evaluated for only one of the fuel types.
If none of the diagnostics reporting readiness is fuel type specific, then only one status code has to be
supported.
3.10. Additional provisions for vehicles employing engine shut - off strategies.
3.10.1. Driving cycle
3.10.1.1. Autonomous engine restarts commanded by the engine control system following an engine stall may be
considered a new driving cycle or a continuation of the existing driving cycle.

4. Requirements relating to the type approval of on-board diagnostic systems
4.1. A manufacturer may request to the Type Approval Authority that an OBD system be accepted for type
approval even though the system contains one or more deficiencies such that the specific requirements of this
annex are not fully met. The Type Approval Authority may approve up to two separate components or systems
with one or more deficiencies.
When a manufacturer adopts specific conditions for misfire defined in paragraph 3.3.3.2.1. of this annex, these
conditions shall not be considered as a deficiency.
4.2. In considering the request, the Type Approval Authority shall determine whether compliance with the
requirements of this annex is infeasible or unreasonable.
The Type Approval Authority shall take into consideration data from the manufacturer that details such factors
as, but not limited to, technical feasibility, lead time and production cycles including phase-in or phase-out of
engines or vehicle designs and programmed upgrades of computers, the extent to which the resultant OBD
system will be effective in complying with the requirements of this Regulation and that the manufacturer has
demonstrated an acceptable level of effort towards compliance with the requirements of this Regulation.
4.2.1. The Type Approval Authority shall not accept any deficiency request that includes the complete lack of a
required diagnostic monitor or the lack of mandated recording and reporting of data related to a monitor.
4.2.2. For Level 1A and Level 2
The Type Approval Authority will not accept any deficiency request that does not respect the OBD thresholds
set out in paragraph 6.8.2. of this Regulation.
For Level 1B
The responsible authority shall reject any deficiency request that does not respect the OBD thresholds set out in
regional legislation multiplied by a factor required by regional legislation up to a maximum factor of two.
4.3. In determining the identified order of deficiencies, deficiencies relating to paragraphs 3.3.3.1., 3.3.3.2.
and 3.3.3.3. of this annex for positive ignition engines and paragraphs 3.3.4. (a), (b) and (c) of this annex for
compression-ignition engines shall be identified first.
4.4. Prior to or at the time of type approval, no deficiency shall be granted in respect of the requirements of
paragraph 6.5., except paragraph 6.5.3.5. of Appendix 1 to this annex.
4.5. Deficiency period
4.5.1. A deficiency may be carried-over for a period of two years after the date of type-approval unless it can be
adequately demonstrated that substantial vehicle hardware modifications and additional lead-time beyond two
years would be necessary to correct the deficiency. In such a case, the deficiency may be carried-over for a
period not exceeding three years.
4.5.2. A manufacturer may request that the Type Approval Authority grant a deficiency retrospectively when such a
deficiency is discovered after the original type-approval. In this case, the deficiency may be carried-over for a
period of two years after the date of notification to the Type Approval Authority unless it can be adequately
demonstrated that substantial vehicle hardware modifications and additional lead-time beyond two years
would be necessary to correct the deficiency. In such a case, the deficiency may be carried-over for a period
not exceeding three years.

Annex C5 - Appendix 1
Functional aspects of On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) systems
1. This appendix describes the procedure of the test according to paragraph 3. of this annex. The procedure
describes a method for checking the function of the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) system installed on the
vehicle by failure simulation of relevant systems in the engine management or emission control system. It also
sets procedures for determining the durability of OBD systems.
The manufacturer shall make available the defective components and/or electrical devices which would be used
to simulate failures. When measured over the Type 1 test cycle, such defective components or devices shall not
cause the vehicle emissions to exceed any of the OBD thresholds set out in Table 4A and Table 4B (as
applicable) in paragraph 6.8.2. of this Regulation by more than 20 per cent. For electrical failures (short/open
circuit), the emissions may exceed these OBD thresholds by more than twenty per cent.
When the vehicle is tested with the defective component or device fitted, the OBD system is approved if the MI
is activated. The OBD system is also approved if the MI is activated below the OBD thresholds.
2. Description of test
2.1. The testing of OBD systems consists of the following phases:
2.1.1. Simulation of malfunction of a component of the engine management or emission control system;
2.1.2. Preconditioning of the vehicle with a simulated malfunction over preconditioning specified in paragraph 6.2.1.
or paragraph 6.2.2. of this appendix;
2.1.3. Driving the vehicle with a simulated malfunction over the Type 1 test cycle and measuring the emissions of the
vehicle. When driving the vehicle with a simulated malfunction, the drive trace indices and tolerances set out in
paragraph 2.6.8.3.2. of Annex B6 shall not apply;
2.1.4. Determining whether the OBD system reacts to the simulated malfunction and indicates malfunction in an
appropriate manner to the vehicle driver.
2.2. Alternatively, at the request of the manufacturer, malfunction of one or more components may be
electronically simulated according to the requirements of paragraph 6. of this appendix.
2.3. Manufacturers may request that monitoring take place outside the Type 1 test cycle if it can be demonstrated to
the Type Approval Authority that monitoring during conditions encountered during the Type 1 test cycle
would impose restrictive monitoring conditions when the vehicle is used in service.
2.4. For OVC-HEVs, testing shall be carried out under charge-sustaining conditions.
3. Test vehicle and fuel
3.1. Vehicle
The test vehicle shall meet the requirements of paragraph 2.3. of Annex B6 to this Regulation.

OJ L, 26.6.2026
3.2. Fuel
The appropriate reference fuel as described in Annex B3 to this Regulation shall be used for testing. The fuel
type for each failure mode to be tested (described in paragraph 6.3. of this appendix) may be selected by the
Type Approval Authority from the reference fuels described in Annex B3 to this Regulation in the case of the
testing of a mono-fuelled gas vehicle or of a bi-fuelled gas vehicle. The selected fuel type shall not be changed
during any of the test phases (described in paragraphs 2.1. to 2.3. of this appendix). In the case of the use of
LPG or NG/biomethane as a fuel it is permissible that the engine is started on petrol and switched to LPG or
NG/biomethane after a pre-determined period of time which is controlled automatically and not under the
control of the driver.
4. Test temperature and pressure
4.1. The test temperature and pressure shall meet the requirements of the Type 1 test as described in Annex B6 to
this Regulation.
5. Test equipment
5.1. Chassis dynamometer
The chassis dynamometer shall meet the requirements of Annex B5 to this Regulation.
6. OBD test procedure
An overview of the OBD test procedure is provided in Figure C5.App1/1. This is for information purposes only.

Overview of demonstration test
6.1. The operating cycle on the chassis dynamometer shall be the applicable WLTC driven in the Type 1 test, as
specified in Annexes Part B.
6.1.1. The Type 1 test need not be performed for the demonstration of electrical failures (short/open circuit). The
manufacturer may demonstrate these failure modes using driving conditions in which the component is used
and the monitoring conditions are encountered. These conditions shall be reported in the type approval
documentation.
6.1.2. At the beginning of each failure mode to be demonstrated, the fault code memory shall be cleared.
6.2. Vehicle preconditioning
6.2.1. Preconditioning for adaption
Preconditioning for adaption consists of two parts
(a) Preconditioning for adaption without fault
(b) Preconditioning for adaption with fault
upon the choice of the manufacturer.

7. In-use performance
This paragraph is applicable to Level 1A and Level 2 only
7.1. General requirements
7.1.1. Each monitor of the OBD system shall be executed at least once per driving cycle in which the monitoring
conditions as specified in paragraph 7.2. of this appendix are met. Manufacturers may not use the calculated
ratio (or any element thereof) or any other indication of monitor frequency as a monitoring condition for any
monitor.
7.1.2. The In-Use Performance Ratio (IUPR) of a specific monitor M of the OBD systems and in-use performance of
pollution control devices shall be:
IUPR = Numerator / Denominator
M M M
7.1.3. Comparison of numerator and denominator gives an indication of how often a specific monitor is operating
relative to vehicle operation. To ensure all manufacturers are tracking IUPR in the same manner, detailed
M
requirements are given for defining and incrementing these counters.
7.1.4. If, according to the requirements of this annex, the vehicle is equipped with a specific monitor M, IUPR shall
M
be greater or equal to the following minimum values:

particular OBD family manufactured in a particular calendar year the following statistical conditions hold:
(a) The average IUPR is equal or above the minimum value applicable to the monitor;
M
(b) More than 50 per cent of all vehicles have an IUPR equal or above the minimum value applicable to the
M
monitor.
7.2. Numerator
M
7.2.1. The numerator of a specific monitor is a counter measuring the number of times a vehicle has been operated
such that all monitoring conditions necessary for the specific monitor to detect a malfunction in order to
warn the driver, as they have been implemented by the manufacturer, have been encountered. The numerator
shall not be incremented more than once per driving cycle, unless there is reasoned technical justification.
7.3. Denominator
M
7.3.1. The purpose of the denominator is to provide a counter indicating the number of vehicle driving events, taking
into account special conditions for a specific monitor. The denominator shall be incremented at least once per
driving cycle, if during this driving cycle such conditions are met and the general denominator is incremented
as specified in paragraph 7.5. of this appendix unless the denominator is disabled according to paragraph 7.7.
of this appendix.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 707/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
7.3.2. In addition to the requirements of paragraph 7.3.1. of this appendix:
(a) Secondary air system monitor denominator(s) shall be incremented if the commanded "on" operation of
the secondary air system occurs for a time greater than or equal to 10 seconds. For purposes of
determining this commanded "on" time, the OBD system may not include time during intrusive
operation of the secondary air system solely for the purposes of monitoring.
(b) Denominators of monitors of systems only active during cold start shall be incremented if the
component or strategy is commanded "on" for a time greater than or equal to 10 seconds.
(c) The denominator(s) for monitors of Variable Valve Timing (VVT) and/or control systems shall be
incremented if the component is commanded to function (e.g., commanded "on", "open", "closed",
"locked", etc.) on two or more occasions during the driving cycle or for a time greater than or equal to
10 seconds, whichever occurs first.
(d) For the following monitors, the denominator(s) shall be incremented by one if, in addition to meeting the
requirements of this paragraph on at least one driving cycle, at least 800 cumulative kilometres of vehicle
operation have been experienced since the last time the denominator was incremented:
(i) Diesel oxidation catalyst;
(ii) Diesel particulate filter.
(e) The denominators of monitors of the following components shall be incremented if and only if the
driving cycle started with a cold start:
(i) Liquid (oil, engine coolant, fuel, SCR reagent) temperature sensors;
(ii) Clean air (ambient air, intake air, charge air, inlet manifold) temperature sensors;
(iii) Exhaust (EGR recirculation/cooling, exhaust gas turbo-charging, catalyst) temperature sensors;
The requirements for the increment of denominators of other monitors remain as described in this
Annex.
(f) The denominators of monitors of the boost pressure control system shall be incremented if all of the
following conditions are met:
(i) The general denominator conditions arc fulfilled;
(ii) The boost pressure control system is active for a time greater than or equal to 15 seconds.
(g) Manufacturers may request to use special denominator conditions for certain components or systems
and this request can be approved only if it can be demonstrated to the Type Approval Authority by
submitting data and/or an engineering evaluation that those other conditions are necessary to allow for
reliable detection of malfunctions.
7.3.3. For hybrid vehicles, vehicles that employ alternative engine start hardware or strategies (e.g. integrated starter
and generators), or alternative fuel vehicles (e.g. dedicated, bi-fuel, or dual-fuel applications), the manufacturer
may request the approval of the Type Approval Authority to use alternative criteria to those set out in this
paragraph for incrementing the denominator. In general, the Type Approval Authority shall not approve
alternative criteria for vehicles that only employ engine shut off at or near idle/vehicle stop conditions.
Approval by the Type Approval Authority of the alternative criteria shall be based on the equivalence of the
alternative criteria to determine the amount of vehicle operation relative to the measure of conventional
vehicle operation in accordance with the criteria in this paragraph.
7.4. Ignition cycle counter
7.4.1. The ignition cycle counter indicates the number of ignition cycles a vehicle has experienced. The ignition cycle
counter may not be incremented more than once per driving cycle.
708/710 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/ojEN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
7.5. General denominator
7.5.1. The general denominator is a counter measuring the number of times a vehicle has been operated. It shall be
incremented within 10 seconds, if and only if, the following criteria are satisfied on a single driving cycle:
(a) Cumulative time since engine start is greater than or equal to 600 seconds while at an elevation of less
than 2,440 m above sea level and at an ambient temperature of greater than or equal to -7 °C;
(b) Cumulative vehicle operation at or above 40 km/h occurs for greater than or equal to 300 seconds while
at an elevation of less than 2,440 m above sea level and at an ambient temperature of greater than or
equal to -7 °C;
(c) Continuous vehicle operation at idle (i.e. accelerator pedal released by driver and vehicle speed less than
or equal to 1.6 km/h) for greater than or equal to 30 seconds while at an elevation of less than 2,440 m
above sea level and at an ambient temperature of greater than or equal to -7 °C.
7.6. Reporting and increasing counters
7.6.1. The OBD system shall report, in accordance with the ISO 15031-5 specifications of the standard listed in
paragraph 6.5.3.2.(a) of this appendix, the ignition cycle counter and general denominator as well as separate
numerators and denominators for the following monitors, if their presence on the vehicle is required by this
annex:
(a) Catalysts (each bank to be reported separately);
(b) Oxygen/exhaust gas sensors, including secondary oxygen sensors (each sensor to be reported separately);
(c) Evaporative system;
(d) EGR system;
(e) VVT system;
(f) Secondary air system;
(g) Particulate filter;
(h) NOx after-treatment system (e.g. NOx adsorber, NOx reagent/catalyst system);
(i) Boost pressure control system.
7.6.2. For specific components or systems that have multiple monitors, which are required to be reported by this
point (e.g. oxygen sensor bank 1 may have multiple monitors for sensor response or other sensor
characteristics), the OBD system shall separately track numerators and denominators for each of the specific
monitors and report only the corresponding numerator and denominator for the specific monitor that has the
lowest numerical ratio. If two or more specific monitors have identical ratios, the corresponding numerator
and denominator for the specific monitor that has the highest denominator shall be reported for the specific
component.
7.6.2.1. Numerators and denominators for specific monitors of components or systems, that are monitoring
continuously for short circuit or open circuit failures are exempted from reporting.
"Continuously", if used in this context means monitoring is always enabled and sampling of the signal used for
monitoring occurs at a rate no less than two samples per second and the presence or the absence of the failure
relevant to that monitor has to be concluded within 15 seconds.
If for control purposes, a computer input component is sampled less frequently, the signal of the component
may instead be evaluated each time sampling occurs.
It is not required to activate an output component/system for the sole purpose of monitoring that output
component/system.
7.6.3. All counters, when incremented, shall be incremented by an integer of one.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2026/1130/oj 709/710EN
OJ L, 26.6.2026
7.6.4. The minimum value of each counter is 0, the maximum value shall not be less than 65,535, notwithstanding
any other requirements on standardised storage and reporting of the OBD system.
7.6.5. If either the numerator or denominator for a specific monitor reaches its maximum value, both counters for
that specific monitor shall be divided by two before being incremented again according to the provisions set in
paragraphs 7.2. and 7.3. of this appendix. If the ignition cycle counter or the general denominator reaches its
maximum value, the respective counter shall change to zero at its next increment according to the provisions
set in paragraphs 7.4. and 7.5. of this appendix, respectively.
7.6.6. Each counter shall be reset to zero only when a non-volatile memory reset occurs (e.g. reprogramming event,
etc.) or, if the numbers are stored in keep-alive memory (KAM), when KAM is lost due to an interruption in
electrical power to the control module (e.g. battery disconnect, etc.).
7.6.7. The manufacturer shall take measures to ensure that the values of numerator and denominator cannot be reset
or modified, except in cases provided for explicitly in this paragraph.
7.7. Disablement of numerators and denominators and of the general denominator
7.7.1. Within 10 seconds of a malfunction being detected, which disables a monitor required to meet the monitoring
conditions of this annex (i.e. a pending or confirmed code is stored), the OBD system shall disable further
incrementing of the corresponding numerator and denominator for each monitor that is disabled. When the
malfunction is no longer detected (i.e., the pending code is erased through self-clearing or through a scan tool
command), incrementing of all corresponding numerators and denominators shall resume within 10 seconds.
7.7.2. Within 10 seconds of the start of a Power Take-off Operation (PTO) that disables a monitor required to meet
the monitoring conditions of this annex, the OBD system shall disable further incrementing of the
corresponding numerator and denominator for each monitor that is disabled. When the PTO operation ends,
incrementing of all corresponding numerators and denominators shall resume within 10 seconds.
7.7.3. The OBD system shall disable further incrementing of the numerator and denominator of a specific monitor
within 10 seconds, if a malfunction of any component used to determine the criteria within the definition of
the specific monitor's denominator (i.e. vehicle speed, ambient temperature, elevation, idle operation, engine
cold start, or time of operation) has been detected and the corresponding pending fault code has been stored.
Incrementing of the numerator and denominator shall resume within 10 seconds when the malfunction is no
longer present (e.g. pending code erased through self-clearing or by a scan tool command).
7.7.4. The OBD system shall disable further incrementing of the general denominator within 10 seconds, if a
malfunction has been detected of any component used to determine whether the criteria in paragraph 7.5. of
this appendix are satisfied (i.e. vehicle speed, ambient temperature, elevation, idle operation, or time of
operation) and the corresponding pending fault code has been stored. The general denominator may not be
disabled from incrementing for any other condition. Incrementing of the general denominator shall resume
within 10 seconds when the malfunction is no longer present (e.g. pending code erased through self-clearing
or by a scan tool command).
