478 Hybrid vehicles
The HC emissions measured during the hot soak test and diurnal test are added and must
not exceed a total of 2 g for the vehicle to be approved.

Procedure for determination of evaporation emissions
Appendices 479
To respect this limiting value, all gasoline vehicles are now equipped with activated car-
bon filters which trap the gasoline vapors given off by evaporation. These vapors are then
burnt by the engine during operation.
Type 5 Test: Durability of Anti-Pollution Devices
To check that a vehicle complies with the pollutant emission limits throughout its lifetime,
the standard provides for an 80,000 km endurance test.
During this test, the vehicle is driven either on a chassis dyno, or on road, according to a
clearly defined mission profile. A type 1 test is conducted every 10,000 km up to 80,000 km.
Based on the results obtained and smoothed by interpolation, an emission deterioration factor
is calculated between 6,400 and 80,000 km. This deterioration factor is applied to the emis-
sions measured on the type 1 test to check that the vehicle will comply with the emission
limiting values at 80,000 km.
As an alternative to the above procedure, the car manufacturer may choose to apply the
assigned deterioration factors indicated in Table A3.2:

Type 6 Test: Verifying the Average Low Ambient Temperature CO and
HC Exhaust Emissions After a Cold Start
This test consists of 4 consecutive ECE cycles (therefore 780 s) after starting a vehicle previ-
ously conditioned at - 7 °C. The vehicle CO and HC emissions are measured during this test
and must not exceed:
- 15g/kmforCO,
- 18g/kmforHCs.
OBD Test: on-Board Diagnosis System for Engined Vehicle
The standard prescribes that "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". The error codes returned by the OBD system
are standardized.
480 Hybrid vehicles
The OBD system must indicate the failure of a depollution component or system when
the vehicle emissions exceed a threshold which depends on the engine type and vehicle mass.
For sparck-ignition engined vehicles, the OBD system must therefore monitor:
- the reduction in the efficiency of the catalytic converter with respect to HC emissions,
- the presence of engine misfire over a large section of the engine operating region
(excluding idling),
- continuity of the evaporative emission purge circuit.
For compression-ignition engined vehicles, the OBD system must monitor, at least:
- where fitted, reduction in the efficiency of the catalytic converter,
- where fitted, the operation and integrity of the particulate trap,
- correct operation of the electronic fuel injection systems.
Tests Prescribed by Regulation R101
Regulation R101 explains the test procedure to be implemented to measure the fuel (and
electricity) consumptions and the C 0 2 emissions of a vehicle.
The tests prescribed are very similar to those of the type 1 test in regulation R83.
ICE vehicles
The C 0 2 emissions and the fuel consumption of ICE vehicles are measured during a type 1
test of standard R83. The heating and air-conditioning must be switched off.
The C 0 2 emissions are calculated by analyzing the diluted exhaust gases sampled in
bags. The fuel consumption is recalculated by a carbon balance based on the C02, CO and
HC emissions.
Electric vehicles
The electrical energy consumption is measured on the NEDC cycle (with the same cycle
monitoring tolerance). Before testing, the vehicle must be checked to ensure that the auxil-
iary batteries are fully charged and that it has traveled at least 300 km over the last 7 days.
The test procedure consists of the following steps:
- battery discharge at 70% ±5% of the maximum vehicle speed for 30 min unless:
• a speed equal to 65% of the vehicle maximum speed can no longer be maintained,
• a distance of 100 km has already been traveled,
• the onboard instruments indicate that the vehicle must be stopped,
- normal night charging (no special charging). The normal charging time is 12 hours.
In case of incomplete charging, it can be increased up to a maximum charging time of
three times the battery nominal energy divided by the grid power. The time when the
charger is unplugged is written t0,
- 2 NEDC cycles are conducted within the 4 hours following t0. The total distance actu-
ally traveled during these two cycles is written D (km),
Appendices 481
- normal night charging started within 30 min after stopping the vehicle. Charging is
stopped 24 hours after t0. The energy E (W.h) supplied to the charger by the grid dur-
ing charging is measured.
The vehicle electricity consumption can be written Consofwh/k .
Hybrid vehicles
We observe the same distinction as in standard R83 depending on whether or not it is a plug-
in vehicle and whether or not it is equipped with a mode switch.
For non plug-in hybrid vehicles not equipped with a mode switch, the procedure is the same
as for ICE vehicles, with the following differences:
- preconditioning must include at least two NEDC cycles;
- the current entering and leaving the battery must be measured and recorded in order to
calculate the battery energy variation during the test:
- where Q is measured by integrating the current, Vnom is the nominal battery voltage,
- the consumption and C 0 2 emissions values measured during the test must be corrected
according to the battery energy balance AEbatt, unless one of the following conditions
is met:
• the car manufacturer can demonstrate that there is no relation between the consump-
tion and the battery energy variation,
• the battery is always charged during the tests,
• the battery discharges during the tests but the battery electrical energy variation rep-
resents less than 1% of the energy consumed in the form of fuel during the cycle.
The correction of the consumption and C 0 2 emissions according to the battery energy
variation is linear. The car manufacturer provides the correction factors calculated using a
series of tests including at least one test with positive AEbatt and one test with negative AEbatt.
These factors must be determined separately for the urban and extra-urban sections of the
NEDC cycle.
For non plug-in hybrid vehicles equipped with a mode switch, the same procedure as above is
applied using the mode which is selected automatically when the ignition key is switched on.
For plug-in hybrid vehicles not equipped with a mode switch, two tests must be conducted:
- test in condition A: battery charged;
- test in condition B: battery discharged.
The test in condition A (battery charged) consists of the following steps:
- battery discharge (by driving the vehicle at a constant speed of 50 km/h or at a lower
speed for which the vehicle operates in electric mode or according to the car manu-
facturer's recommendations) until the ICE starts; the ICE must then be stopped within
10 s,
482 Hybrid vehicles
- vehicle preconditioning (1 NEDC + 1 EUDC cycles are carried out for vehicles
equipped with a sparck-ignition engine, 3 EUDC cycles for vehicles equipped with a
compression-ignition engine),
- thermal conditioning by soaking for at least 6 hours in a room between 20 °C and
30 °C, until there is a difference of less than 2 °C between the engine oil and water
temperatures and the room temperature,
- battery normal night charging while the vehicle is soaking; charging is carried out
either with the vehicle onboard charger or with an external charger recommended by
the car manufacturer; the battery should be charged for 12 hours, unless the onboard
instruments indicate that the charge is not complete; in this case, the maximum charg-
ing time allowed is three times the battery nominal energy (W.h) divided by the grid
power; no special charging (trickle, equalization) is allowed, whether triggered manu-
ally or automatically,
- the NEDC cycle is conducted with cold start as for a conventional vehicle,
- battery charged by normal night charging (see above) started within 30 min after stop-
ping the vehicle. The electrical energy exchanged between the grid and the charger is
measured (ej in Wh).
The test in condition B (battery discharged) consists of the following steps:
- vehicle preconditioning only if requested by the car manufacturer,
- battery discharge (by driving the vehicle at a constant speed of 50 km/h or at a lower
speed for which the vehicle operates in electric mode or according to the car manu-
facturer's recommendations) until the ICE starts; the ICE must then be stopped within
10 s,
- thermal conditioning by soaking for at least 6 hours in a room between 20 °C and
30 °C, until there is a difference of less than 2 °C between the engine oil and water
temperatures and the room temperature,
- testing with cold start as for a conventional vehicle and calculation of the fuel con-
sumption and C 0 2 emissions,
- battery charged by normal night charging started within 30 min after stopping the
vehicle; the electrical energy exchanged between the grid and the charger is measured
and written e2,
- battery discharge (at steady 50 km/h until the first time the ICE starts),
- battery charged by normal night charging started within 30 min after stopping the
vehicle; the electrical energy exchanged between the grid and the charger is measured
and written e3,
- The electrical energy consumed is calculated using the formula:
Writing mA and DA the mass of C 0 2 emitted and the distance traveled during the test
under conditions A, and similarly, mB and DB those measured during the test under condi-
tions B, the average vehicle emissions are calculated using the following formula:
Appendices 483
(where De is the vehicle range in electric mode).
A similar formula is used for the fuel consumption and the electricity consumption.
Forplug-in hybrid vehicles equipped with a mode switch, the procedure is virtually the same
as for plug-in hybrid vehicles without mode switch, with the following differences:
- the mode is chosen according to Table A3.1.
If the vehicle electric range exceeds a complete NEDC cycle, the type A test can be con-
ducted in all-electric mode if requested by the car manufacturer. In this case, preconditioning
is not necessary.
- the battery discharges required depend on the modes available:
• if an all-electric mode is available, discharge is carried out in this mode at 70% ±5%
of the maximum speed that can be reached in all-electric mode for 30 min, or until
one of the following conditions is met:
- a distance of 100 km has been traveled,
- the threshold of 65% of the maximum speed in all-electric mode can no longer be
maintained,
- the onboard instruments indicate to the driver that the vehicle must be stopped,
• if there is no all-electric mode, the battery is discharged in the same way as for a
non plug-in hybrid vehicle (steady speed of 50 km/h until the ICE starts, see above).
Measuring the all-electric range of an electric or hybrid vehicle
This test consists of the following steps:
- battery discharge
• for an electric vehicle or a hybrid vehicle with electric mode, at a steady speed equal
to 70% ± 5 % of the maximum speed that can be reached in electric mode for 30 min,
or until one of the following conditions is met:
- a distance of 100 km has been traveled,
- the threshold of 65% of the maximum speed in all-electric mode can no longer be
maintained,
- the onboard instruments indicate to the driver that the vehicle must be stopped.
• for plug-in hybrid vehicles not equipped with electric mode, at a steady speed of
50 km/h until the ICE starts,
- normal night charging (at least 12 hours),
- test on NEDC cycle (with tolerance regarding failure to follow the cycle above 50 km/h
if the power is not sufficient; in this case, the driver presses the accelerator pedal until
he returns to the cycle). The test is stopped:
• when the onboard instruments indicate that the vehicle must be stopped,
• or when the cycle can no longer be followed below 50 km/h,
• or when the ICE starts for hybrid vehicles not equipped with electric mode.
When the test is stopped, the vehicle is decelerated using the engine brake to 5 km/h then
brought to a stop using the vehicle brakes.
The vehicle all-electric range is the distance actually traveled during this test.

Test Procedure (Warm Start)
Depending on the Initial
Battery State of Charge
(AMESim IFP Energies Nouvelles
Simulations)
Figures A7.1 to A7.3 show that use of the ICE at the start of the cycle is very limited in the
first case, increasing for the next two cases, when the initial battery state of charge is low,
for a given vehicle demand. The control diagram of the THS transmission clearly shows that
calculation of the power required on the ICE includes an input taking into account the need
to charge the battery to bring its SOC to the center of its operating range [Kimura, 1999].
This type of correction has been taken into account in the software and we observed
that the simulated SOC changes presented on Figure A7.4 correspond to those measured on
vehicle on the test bench under the same conditions [Vinot, 2006]. We see that the SOCs
converge within a few hundred seconds towards a single range, which explains that the uses
of the ICE are similar in Figures A7.1 to A7.3 from 400 seconds.
