Passenger Automobile and Light Truck Greenhouse Gas Emission Regulations — 18.4
Allowance for certain full-size pick-up trucks 18.4 (1) Subject to subsections (2) to (4), a company may elect to calculate, using the following formula, a CO 2 allowance for the presence, in its fleet, of full-size pick-up trucks equipped with hybrid electric technologies and of full-size pick-up trucks that achieve carbon-related exhaust emission values below the applicable target value: Σ ( A H × B H ) + Σ ( A R × B R ) C where A H is the allowance for the use of hybrid electric technologies, namely, (a) 10 grams of CO 2 per mile for mild hybrid electric technologies, or (b) 20 grams of CO 2 per mile for strong hybrid electric technologies; B H is the number of full-size pick-up trucks in the fleet that are equipped with mild hybrid electric technologies or that are equipped with strong hybrid electric technologies, as the case may be; A R is the allowance for full-size pick-up trucks that achieve a certain carbon-related exhaust emission value, namely, (a) 10 grams of CO 2 per mile for full-size pick-up trucks that achieve a carbon-related exhaust emission value that is less than or equal to their applicable target value, determined in accordance with subsection 17(7), multiplied by 0.85 and greater than their applicable target value multiplied by 0.8, or (b) 20 grams of CO 2 per mile for full-size pick-up trucks that achieve a carbon-related exhaust emission value that is less than or equal to their applicable target value, determined in accordance with subsection 17(7), multiplied by 0.8; B R is the number of full-size pick-up trucks in the fleet that achieve a carbon-related exhaust emission value that is within the range referred to in paragraph (a) of the description of A R or that is less than or equal to their applicable target value, determined in accordance with subsection 17(7), multiplied by 0.8, as the case may be; and C is the total number of light trucks in the fleet. Allowance limitations — hybrid electric technologies (2) The allowance for the use of hybrid electric technologies referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b) of the description of A H in subsection (1) may be calculated in respect of full-size pick-up trucks of a model year only if the percentage in the fleet of full-size pick-up trucks of that model year that are equipped with those technologies is equal to or greater than the percentage for that model year set out in section 1870(a)(1) or (2), depending on the technology used, of Title 40, chapter I, subchapter C, part 86, subpart S, of the CFR. The allowance referred to in paragraph (a) of the description of A H may be calculated only for full-size pick-up trucks of the 2017 to 2021, 2023 and 2024 model years. Description of A H (2.1) If the percentage in the fleet of full-size pick-up trucks of a model year that are equipped with mild hybrid electric technologies or strong hybrid electric technologies is less than the percentage set out for the model year in, depending on the technology used, section 1870(a)(1) or (2) of Title 40, chapter I, subchapter C, part 86, of the CFR, the allowance for the use of hybrid electric technologies referred to in the description of A H in subsection (1) is 10 grams of CO 2 per mile for those trucks, if the percentage in the fleet of full-size pick-up trucks that are equipped with either mild hybrid electric technologies or strong hybrid electric technologies is equal to or greater than the percentage referred to in section 1870(a)(3) of Title 40, chapter I, subchapter C, part 86, of the CFR. The allowance may be calculated only for full-size pick-up trucks of the 2017 to 2021 model years. Allowance limitations — carbon-related exhaust emissions performance (3) The allowance for full-size pick-up trucks that achieve a carbon-related exhaust emission value referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b) of the description of A R in subsection (1) may be calculated in respect of full-size pick-up trucks of a model year only if the percentage in the fleet of full-size pick-up
