the individual vehicle according to step 9 of Table A8/11 of Annex B8 shall be used for verifying the conformity of production.

              5. Verification of CoP of OVC-HEVs

              5.1. At the request of the manufacturer it is allowed to use different test vehicles for the charge-sustaining test and charge-depleting test.

              5.2. Verification of the charge-sustaining CO2 emissions / fuel efficiency, as applicable, for conformity of production.

              5.2.1. The vehicle shall be tested according to the charge-sustaining Type 1 test as described in paragraph 3.2.5. of Annex B8.

              5.2.2. For Level 1A:

               The charge-sustaining CO2 emission MCO2,CS,c,6 shall be determined according to step 6 of Table A8/5 of Annex B8.

               For Level 1B:

               The charge-sustaining fuel efficiency FECS,c,4c shall be determined according to step 4c of Table A8/5 of Annex B8.

              5.2.3. For Level 1A:

               The conformity of production with regard to charge-sustaining CO2 emissions shall be verified on the basis of the values for the tested vehicle as described in paragraph 5.2.3.1. for charge-sustaining CO2 emissions, and applying a run-in factor as defined in paragraph 8.2.4. of this Regulation.

               For Level 1B:

               The conformity of production with regard to charge-sustaining fuel efficiency shall be verified on the basis of the values for the tested vehicle as described in paragraph 5.2.3.1. for charge-sustaining fuel efficiency, and applying a run-in factor as defined in paragraph 8.2.4. of this Regulation.

              5.2.3.1. Charge-Sustaining CO2 emission / fuel efficiency values for CoP

               For Level 1A:

               In the case the interpolation method is not applied, the charge-sustaining CO2 emission value MCO2,CS,c,7 according to step 7 of Table A8/5 of Annex B8 shall be used for verifying the conformity of production.

               In the case the interpolation method is applied, the charge-sustaining CO2 emission value MCO2,CS,c,ind for the individual vehicle according to step 9 of Table A8/5 of Annex B8 shall be used for verifying the conformity of production.

               For Level 1B:

               In the case that the interpolation method is not applied, the charge-sustaining fuel efficiency value FECS,c according to step 2 of Table A8/6 of Annex B8 shall be used for verifying the conformity of production.

               In the case the interpolation method is applied, the charge-sustaining fuel efficiency value FECS,c,ind for the individual vehicle according to step 3 of Table A8/6 of Annex B8 shall be used for verifying the conformity of production.

              5.3. Verification of CoP on charge-depleting electric energy consumption of OVC-HEVs

              5.3.1. The vehicle shall be tested during conformity of production according to paragraph 5.3.1.1. If there is no engine start during the first cycle of the type approval procedure of this vehicle, at the option of the manufacturer the vehicle may be tested according to paragraph 5.3.1.2.

              5.3.1.1. Charge-Depleting Type 1 test procedure
