This section applies to data used for fuel economy labeling under Subpart D of this part.
(a) City fuel economy.
For each vehicle tested under § 600.010-08(c)(i) and (ii), determine the 5-cycle city fuel economy using the following equation:
(b) Highway fuel economy.
(1)
For each vehicle tested under §§ 600.010-08(a) and (c)(1)(ii)(B), determine the 5-cycle highway fuel economy using the following equation:
(2)
If the condition specified in § 600.115-08(b)(2)(iii)(B) is met, in lieu of using the calculation in paragraph (b)(1) of this section, the manufacturer may optionally determine the highway fuel economy using the following modified 5-cycle equation which utilizes data from FTP, HFET, and US06 tests, and applies mathematic adjustments for Cold FTP and SC03 conditions:
(i)
Perform a US06 test in addition to the FTP and HFET tests.
(ii)
Determine the 5-cycle highway fuel economy according to the following formula:
(c) Fuel economy calculations for hybrid electric vehicles.
Under the requirements of § 86.1811-04(n), hybrid electric vehicles are subject to California test methods which require FTP emission sampling for the 75 °F FTP test over four phases (bags) of the UDDS (cold-start, transient, warm-start, transient). Optionally, these four phases may be combined into two phases (phases 1 2 and phases 3 4). Calculations for these sampling methods follow.
(1) Four-bag FTP equations.
If the 4-bag sampling method is used, manufacturers may use the equations in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section to determine city and highway fuel economy estimates. If this method is chosen, it must be used to determine both city and highway fuel economy. Optionally, the following calculations may be used, provided that they are used to determine both city and highway fuel economy:
(ii) Highway fuel economy.
(2) Two-bag FTP equations.
If the 2-bag sampling method is used for the 75 °F FTP test, it must be used to determine both city and highway fuel economy. The following calculations must be used to determine both city and highway fuel economy:
(ii) Highway fuel economy.
(3)
For hybrid electric vehicles using the modified 5-cycle highway calculation in paragraph (b)(2) of this section, the equation in paragraph (b)(2)(ii)(A) of this section, applies except that the equation for Start Fuel75 will be replaced with one of the following:
(i)
The equation for Start Fuel75 for hybrids tested according to the 4-bag FTP is:
