Regulatory News:
In order to continuously improve fuel economy information in the
interest of customers, PSA Peugeot Citroën (Paris:UG) and the NGO
Transport & Environment have agreed to work together to measure
and publicize real-world fuel economy figures as a first step by
spring 2016, and pollutant levels including nitrogen oxides (NOx)
as a second step with Euro 6.2 passenger vehicles by spring
2017.
The procedure will measure real-world fuel economy for each of
PSA’s main passenger vehicle models with tests on open public roads
near Paris in real driving conditions, with segments to include
urban, extra-urban and highway driving.The procedure will be
included in PSA’s Quality processes. The process, its correct
execution and the tests results' measurement will be audited and
validated by an internationally recognized independent third party.
Discussions are underway with Bureau Veritas concerning the
execution of this program.
Carlos Tavares, Chairman of the Managing Board of PSA Peugeot
Citroën, said: "This innovative initiative is a clear demonstration
that a carmaker and independent NGOs can reach agreement for the
benefit of customer information. This will also highlight the
advanced technologies that PSA Peugeot Citroën is developing to
contribute to fuel efficiency.”
Jos Dings, Director at T&E, said: “Real world measurements
of CO2 emissions and fuel economy will help drivers choose the most
efficient models benefiting consumers, public health and the
environment. We are confident that the work we plan to undertake
with PSA can generate transparent robust results that everyone can
rely on.”
