Innovative technologies 41 (1) A company may obtain additional credits, expressed in megagrams of CO 2 , for its fleet or subfleet, as the case may be, of heavy-duty vehicles or heavy-duty engines for the use of innovative technologies by (a) in the case of Class 2B and Class 3 heavy-duty vehicles and cab-complete vehicles, excluding those that are vocational vehicles or incomplete vocational vehicles, using the following formula: A × B × C 1 000 000 where A is the five-cycle credit value determined in accordance with section 1869(c) of Title 40, chapter I, subchapter C, part 86, subpart S, of the CFR, and expressed in grams of CO 2 per mile, B is the number of vehicles manufactured with the innovative technology in question in the fleet, and C is the useful life of the vehicles of the fleet, expressed in miles; (b) in the case of vocational vehicles and incomplete vocational vehicles, or tractors and incomplete tractors, either (i) by using the following formula: (A – B) × C × D × E 1 000 000 where (A – B) is the difference between the in-use emission rate of the vehicle manufactured without the innovative technology and the in-use emission rate of the vehicle manufactured with the innovative technology and determined in accordance with section 610(c) of Title 40, chapter I, subchapter U, part 1037, subpart G, of the CFR, expressed in grams of CO 2 per short ton-mile, C is the number of vehicles manufactured with the innovative technology in question in the fleet or subfleet, as the case may be, D is the payload for the class of vehicles, which is (A) 2.85 short tons for vocational vehicles that are light heavy-duty vehicles and incomplete vocational vehicles that are to become light heavy-duty vehicles, (B) 5.6 short tons for vocational vehicles that are medium heavy-duty vehicles and incomplete vocational vehicles that are to becomes medium heavy-duty vehicles, (C) 7.5 short tons for vocational vehicles that are heavy heavy-duty vehicles and incomplete vocational vehicles that are to become heavy heavy-duty vehicles, (D) 12.5 short tons for Class 7 tractors and incomplete tractors, (E) 19 short tons for Class 8 tractors and incomplete tractors of the 2020 model year or an earlier model year and for Class 8 tractors and incomplete tractors of the 2021 model year or a subsequent model year that have a GCWR of less than 54 431 kg (120,000 pounds), and (F) 43 short tons for Class 8 tractors and incomplete tractors of the 2021 model year or a subsequent model year that have a GCWR of 54 431 kg (120,000 pounds) or more, and E is the useful life of the vehicles of the fleet or subfleet, as the case may be, expressed in miles, or (ii) by substituting the result obtained in accordance with paragraph 35 (1)(b) or (c), as the case may be, with the result obtained in accordance with one of the following formulas, whichever applies: (A) for vocational vehicles and incomplete vocational vehicles: [A – (B × C)] × D × E × F 1 000 000 where A is the CO 2 emission standard under subsection 26(1) or (1.1) that applies to the vocational vehicles and incomplete vocational vehicles of the fleet or subfleet, as the case may be, expressed in grams of CO 2 per short ton-mile, B is the CO 2 family emission limit for the fleet or subfleet, as the case may be, expressed in grams of CO 2 per short ton-mile, C is the improvement factor calculated in accordance with sections 610(b)(1) and (c) of Title 40, chapter I, subchapter U, part 1037, subpart G, of the CFR, for the fleet or subfleet, as the case may be, of vocational vehicles and incomplete vocational vehicles or, in the case of vocational vehicles and incomplete vocational vehicles of the 2018 to 2020 model years, is the applicable improvement factor set out in section 150(y)(2) of Title 40, chapter I, subchapter U, part 1037, subpart B, of the CFR, for the fleet or subfleet, as the case may be, D is the payload for the class of vocational vehicles and incomplete vocational vehicles, which is (I)
