Market analysis of heavy-duty vehicles in India for fiscal years 2019–20 and 2020–21

Market analyses by vehicle segment, weight category, manufacturer, and engine size are needed to optimize vehicle emission standards and testing requirements. In India, these are largely adopted from Euro standards to fit the Indian landscape, and that was the case with the Bharat Stage (BS) VI regulations that took effect April 1, 2020. The heavy-duty vehicle market saw some big technology changes to meet the new standards, and this paper analyzes the first fiscal year (FY) 2020–21 of BS VI vehicle sales and the last year of sales under the previous BS IV standard, FY 2019–20.

Evaluation of real-world fuel consumption of light-duty vehicles in China: A 2021 update

The gap between real-world fuel consumption and emissions of carbon dioxide from light-duty vehicles (LDV), and their laboratory values, is increasingly apparent around the world, including in China. This ICCT briefing shows that the accelerated expansion of the gap clearly indicates the need for regulatory changes to reverse the trend and close the gap.
