Passenger Automobile and Light Truck Greenhouse Gas Emission Regulations

Marginal note:Group

• 17 (1) For the purposes of this section, passenger automobiles or light trucks of the same model type and that have the same footprint constitute a group.

• (2) [Repealed, SOR/2014-207, s. 9]

• Marginal note:Calculation of fleet average CO₂ equivalent emission standard for 2012 and subsequent model years

  (3) Subject to sections 24 and 28.1, a company must calculate the fleet average CO₂ equivalent emission standard for its fleet of passenger automobiles and its fleet of light trucks of the 2012 model year and subsequent model years in accordance with the following formula:

  (Σ (A × B)) ÷ C

  where

  A

  is the CO₂ emission target value for each group of passenger automobiles or light trucks, determined in accordance with subsection (4), (5), (6) or (7), as the case may be, and expressed in grams of CO₂ per mile;

  B

  is the number of passenger automobiles or light trucks in the group in question; and

  C

  is the total number of passenger automobiles or light trucks in the fleet.

• Marginal note:Targets — passenger automobiles of the 2012 to 2016 model years

  (4) For fleets of the 2012 to 2016 models years, the CO₂ emission target value applicable to a group of passenger automobiles of a given model year corresponds to the following:

  • (a) in the case of each group with a footprint that is less than or equal to 3.8 m² (41 square feet), the CO₂ emission target value is as set out in the following table for the model year in question:

    Item	Column 1	Column 2
    	Model Year	CO2 Emission Target Value (grams/mile)
    1	2012	244.0

    3	2014	228.0
    4	2015	217.0
    5	2016	206.0

  • (b) in the case of each group with a footprint that is greater than 3.8 m² (41 square feet) and less than or equal to 5.2 m² (56 square feet), the CO₂ emission target value is to be calculated using the following formula:

    (4.72 × f) + b

    where

    f

    is the footprint of the group, expressed in square feet, and

    b

    is the value set out in the following table for the model year in question:

    Item	Column 1	Column 2
    	Model Year	b
    1	2012	50.5
    2	2013	43.3
    3	2014	34.8
    4	2015	23.4
    5	2016	12.7

  • (c) in the case of each group with a footprint that is greater than 5.2 m² (56 square feet), the CO₂ emission target value is as set out in the following table for the model year in question:

    Item	Column 1	Column 2
    	Model Year	CO2 Emission Target Value (grams/mile)
    1	2012	315.0
    2	2013	307.0
    3	2014	299.0
    4	2015	288.0
    5	2016	277.0

• Marginal note:Targets — light trucks of the 2012 to 2016 model years

  (5) For fleets of the 2012 to 2016 model years, the CO₂ emission target value applicable to a group of light trucks of a given model year corresponds to the following:

  • (a) in the case of each group with a footprint that is less than or equal to 3.8 m² (41 square feet), the CO₂ emission target value is as set out in the following table for the model year in question:

    Item	Column 1	Column 2
    	Model Year	CO2 Emission Target Value (grams/mile)
    1	2012	294.0
    2	2013	284.0
    3	2014	275.0
    4	2015	261.0
    5	2016	247.0

  • (b) in the case of each group with a footprint that is greater than 3.8 m² (41 square feet) and less than or equal to 6.1 m² (66 square feet), the CO₂ emission target value is to be calculated using the following formula:

    (4.04 × f) + b

    where

    f

    is the footprint of the group, expressed in square feet, and

    b

    is the value set out in the following table for the model year in question:

    Item	Column 1	Column 2
    	Model Year	b
    1	2012	128.6
    2	2013	118.7
    3	2014	109.4
    4	2015	95.1
    5	2016	81.1

  • (c) in the case of each group with a footprint that is greater than 6.1 m² (66 square feet), the CO₂ emission target value is as set out in the following table for the model year in question:

    Item	Column 1	Column 2
    	Model Year	CO2 Emission Target Value (grams/mile)
    1	2012	395.0
    2	2013	385.0
    3	2014	376.0
    4	2015	362.0
    5	2016	348.0

• Marginal note:Targets — passenger automobiles of the 2017 model year and subsequent model years

  (6) The CO₂ emission target value applicable to a given group of passenger automobiles of the 2017 model year and subsequent model years corresponds to the value determined for that group in accordance with section 1818(c)(2)(i) of Title 40, chapter I, subchapter C, part 86, subpart S, of the CFR.
