    The document compares regulatory testing cycles used in the U.S. and WLTC (Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Cycle). A preliminary analysis of a 2016 Chevrolet Malibu showed the U.S. EPA cycles generated similar CO2 emissions versus vehicle speed profiles as the WLTC, except for one test phase. Linearly interpolating and extrapolating the individual test phases of the U.S. cycles provides a better match to the WLTC cycle.

    Comparison of U.S.

    Regulatory Cycles to WLTC


    5/22/19
    Cycle CO2 versus Vehicle Speed
    • 2016 Chevrolet Malibu
    • Preliminary analysis shows
    U.S. EPA cycles generate
    similar CO2 (g/km) vs
    vehicle speed as seen with
    the WLTC, except for Bag 2
    of the US06
    Linear Interpolation and Extrapolation of U.S.
    Cycles Compared to WLTC
    • Using linear interpolation and
    extrapolation of individual bags
    of the U.S. cycles allows for a
    better match with the WLTC
