Type VI test procedures.
              2.17.  "Family of vehicles" means a group of vehicle types identified by a parent vehicle for the purpose of Annex 12;
              2.18.  "Fuel requirement by the engine" means the type of fuel normally used by the engine:
                (a) Petrol E5);
                (b) LPG (liquefied petroleum gas);
                (c) NG/biomethane (natural gas);
                (d) Either petrol (E5) or LPG;
                (e) Either petrol (E5) or NG/biomethane;
                (f) Diesel fuel B5);
                (g) Mixture of ethanol (E85) and petrol (E5) (Flex fuel)
                 (h) Mixture of biodiesel and diesel (B5) (Flex fuel)
                 (i) Hydrogen
              (j) Either petrol (E5) or Hydrogen (Bi-fuel)

        2.18.1. "Biofuel" means liquid or gaseous fuel for transport, produced from biomass.

              2.19.  "Approval of a vehicle" means the approval of a vehicle type with regard to the limitation of the following conditions[2]:
              2.19.1. Limitation of exhaust emissions by the vehicle, evaporative emissions, crankcase emissions, durability of pollution control devices, cold start pollutant emissions and on-board diagnostics of vehicles fuelled with unleaded petrol, or which can be fuelled with either unleaded petrol and LPG or NG/biomethane or biofuels (Approval B);
              2.19.2. Limitation of emissions of gaseous and particulate pollutants, durability of pollution control devices and on-board diagnostics of vehicles fuelled with diesel fuel (Approval C) or which can be fuelled with either diesel fuel and biosuel or biofuel;
              2.19.3. Limitation of emissions of gaseous pollutants by the engine, crankcase emissions, durability of pollution control devices, cold start emissions and on-board diagnostics of vehicles fuelled with LPG or NG/biomethane (Approval D);
              2.20. "Periodically regenerating system" means an anti-pollution device (e.g. catalytic converter, particulate trap) that requires a periodical regeneration process in less than 4,000 km of normal vehicle operation. During cycles where regeneration occurs, emission standards can be exceeded. If a regeneration of an anti-pollution device occurs at least once per Type I test and that has already regenerated at least once during vehicle preparation cycle, it will be considered as a continuously regenerating system which does not require a special test procedure. Annex 13 does not apply to continuously regenerating systems.
               At the request of the manufacturer, the test procedure specific to periodically regenerating systems will not apply to a regenerative device if the manufacturer provides data to the type Approval Authority that, during cycles where regeneration occurs, emissions remain below the standards given in paragraph 5.3.1.4. applied for the concerned vehicle category after agreement of the Technical Service.
2.21.  Hybrid vehicles (HV)
              2.21.1.  General definition of hybrid vehicles (HV):
                "Hybrid vehicle (HV)" means a vehicle with at least two different energy  converters and two different energy storage systems (on vehicle) for the purpose of vehicle propulsion.
2.21.2.  Definition of hybrid electric vehicles (HEV):
                "Hybrid electric vehicle (HEV)" means a vehicle that, for
