Appendix 1

Type 1 test CoP verification for specific vehicle types
              1. Verifying CoP on the criteria emissions for pure ICE vehicles, NOVC-HEVs and OVC-HEVs

              1.1. Each vehicle shall be tested on the chassis dynamometer set with the specific mass inertia setting and road load parameters of the individual vehicle. The chassis dynamometer shall be set to the target road load for the test vehicle according to the procedure specified in paragraph 7. of Annex B4.

              For Level 1B only:

              The target setting procedure (specified in paragraph 7. of Annex B4) shall be prohibited when the derived run-in factor is developed according to the paragraph 1.5.2. of Appendix 3. In this case, the same dynamometer setting values shall be applied as during type approval.

              1.2. The applicable test cycle is the same used for the type approval of the interpolation family to which the vehicle belongs.

              1.3. The preconditioning test shall be carried out according to the provisions of paragraph 2.6. of Annex B6, or of Appendix 4 to Annex B8, as applicable.

              1.4. The criteria emissions test results shall be determined according to: Step 9 of Table A7/1 of Annex B7 for pure ICE vehicles; Step 8 of Table A8/5 of Annex B8 for NOVC-HEVs and charge-sustaining condition of OVC-HEVs; and Step 6 of Table A8/8 of Annex B8 for the charge-depleting condition of OVC-HEVs. Conformity against the applicable criteria emissions limits shall be checked using the pass/fail criteria specified in paragraph 6.3.10. of this Regulation.

               For Level 1B only

               The criteria emissions of each applicable test cycle during the charge-depleting test for OVC-HEV shall comply with the limits defined in Table 1B in paragraph 6.3.10. of this Regulation, but shall not be checked against the pass/fail criteria.

              2. Verification of CoP on CO2 emissions/ fuel efficiency of pure ICE vehicles

              2.1. The vehicle shall be tested according to the Type 1 test procedure described in Annex B6.

              2.2. For Level 1A:

               The CO2 emission MCO2,c,6 shall be determined according to step 6 of Table A7/1 of Annex B7.

               For Level 1B:

               The fuel efficiency FEc,5 shall be determined according to step 5 of Table A7/1 of Annex B7.

              2.3. For Level 1A:

               The conformity of production with regard to CO2 emissions shall be verified on the basis of the values for the tested vehicle as described in paragraph 2.3.1. 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
