values, , are as follows:
               km/h,  m/s² for Class 1,
               km/h,  m/s² for Class 2,
               km/h,  m/s² for Class 3.
               shall be calculated using the following equation:
              The downscaling factor, , shall be calculated using the following equations:
    if , then .
           and no downscaling shall be applied.
              If, then .
              The calculation parameter/coefficients, ,  and , are as follows:
              Class 1 .
                     Class 2 .
                     Class 3 .
              The resulting  shall be rounded according to paragraph 6.1.8. of this Regulation to 3 places of decimal and shall be applied only if it exceeds 0.010.
              The following data shall be recorded:
              (a)  fdsc;
              (b)  vmax;
              (c)  dcycle (distance driven), m.
              The distance shall be calculated using the following equation:
                                , for
                                i = tstart + 1 to tend
              tstart is the time at which the applicable test cycle starts (see paragraph 3 of this annex), s;
              tend is the time at which the applicable test cycle ends (see paragraph 3 of this annex), s.
              8.4. Additional requirements (as applicable)
              For different vehicle configurations in terms of test mass and driving resistance coefficients, downscaling shall be applied individually.
              If, after application of downscaling, the vehicle's maximum speed is lower than the maximum speed of the cycle, the process described in paragraph 9. of this annex shall be applied with the applicable cycle.
              If the vehicle cannot follow the speed trace of the applicable cycle within the tolerance at speeds lower than its maximum speed, it shall be driven with the accelerator control fully activated during these periods. During such periods of operation, speed trace violations shall be permitted.
              9. Cycle modifications for vehicles with a maximum speed lower than the maximum speed of the cycle specified in the previous paragraphs of this annex
              9.1. General remarks
              This paragraph applies to vehicles that are technically able to follow the speed trace of the applicable cycle specified in paragraph 1. of this annex (base cycle) at speeds lower than its maximum speed, but whose maximum speed is limited to a value lower than the maximum speed of the base cycle for other reasons. For the purposes of this paragraph, the applicable cycle specified in paragraph 1. shall be referred to as the "base cycle" and is used to determine the capped speed cycle.
              In the cases where downscaling according to paragraph 8.2. of this annex is applied, the downscaled cycle shall be used as the base cycle.
              The maximum speed of the base cycle shall be referred to as vmax,cycle.
              The maximum speed of the vehicle shall be referred to as its capped speed vcap.
              If vcap is applied to a Class 3b vehicle, the Class 3b cycle as defined in paragraph 3.3.2.
