WLTP replaces NEDC
New test cycle replaces NEDC, WLTP yields higher emissions estimates
The article provides information on the measurement procedures for determining fuel consumption and emissions in accordance with the law. As of January 1, 2022, the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP) has replaced the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) test cycle, and therefore, no NEDC values are available for new type-approved vehicles after that date. The article notes that the fuel consumption and CO emissions measured according to WLTP may be higher than the values measured according to NEDC due to more realistic testing conditions. .
