         1.  SCOPE

         1.1. This Regulation applies to:

         1.1.1. Exhaust emissions at normal and low ambient temperature, evaporative emissions, emissions of crankcase gases, the durability of pollution control exhaust devices and on-board diagnostic (OBD) systems of motor vehicles equipped with positive-ignition (P.I.) engines which have at least 4 wheels.

         1.1.2. Exhaust emissions, the durability of anti-pollution devices and on-board diagnostic (OBD) systems of vehicles of categories M1 and N1 equipped with compression-ignition (C.I.) engines which have at least 4 wheels and a maximum mass not exceeding 3,500 kg.

         1.1.3. Exhaust emissions at normal and low ambient temperature, evaporative emissions, emissions of crankcase gases, the durability of pollution control exhaust devices and on-board diagnostic (OBD) systems of hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) equipped with positive-ignition (P.I.) engines and having at least four wheels.

         1.1.4. Exhaust emissions, the durability of anti-pollution devices and on-board diagnostic (OBD) systems of hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) of categories M1 and N1 equipped with compression-ignition (C.I.) engines, having at least four wheels and a maximum mass not exceeding 3,500 kg.

         1.1.5. It does not apply to:

          – vehicles with a maximum mass of less than 400 kg and to vehicles having
           a maximum design speed of less than 50 km/h;

          –          vehicles whose unladen mass is not more than 400 kg if they are intended
              for carrying passengers or 550 kg if they are intended for carrying goods and whose maximum engine power does not exceed 15 kW.

         1.1.6. At the request of the manufacturer, type approval pursuant to this Regulation may be extended from M1 or N1 vehicles equipped with compression-ignition engines which have already been typed approved to M2 and N2 vehicles having a reference mass not exceeding 2,840 kg and meeting the conditions of paragraph 7. (extension of approval).

         1.1.7. Vehicles of category N1 equipped with compression-ignition engines or equipped with positive-ignition engines fuelled with NG or LPG are not subject to this Regulation provided they have been type-approved pursuant to Regulation 49 as amended by the last series of amendments.

         1.2. This Regulation does not apply to vehicles equipped with positive-ignition engines fuelled with NG or LPG used for driving motor vehicles of M1 category having a maximum mass exceeding 3,500
