HDH | Session 13 | 21-22 Mar 2013

The original working paper HDH-12-05e was uploaded to the HDH website, but not presented at the 12th meeting. Mr. Lee (KATRI) presented a revised version at this meeting. Korea is currently investigating to replace the existing fuel economy regulation, which is based on a 60 km/h constant speed driving on a chassis dyno, with the WHVC cycle. Analysis of driving conditions showed a good correlation between typical Korean driving patterns and the WHVC. As a first step, Korea plans to introduce the WHVC chassis test into the national fuel economy regulation. As a second step, Korea intends to adopt the HILS method as an option upon completion of the gtr.
