Passenger Automobile and Light Truck Greenhouse Gas Emission Regulations

Version of section 17 from 2015-03-19 to 2023-12-14:


Marginal note:Group

  •  (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  • (2) [Repealed, SOR/2014-207, s. 9]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:

      ItemColumn 1Column 2
      Model YearCO2 Emission Target Value (grams/mile)
      12012244.0
      22013237.0
      32014228.0
      42015217.0
      52016206.0
    • (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:
      ItemColumn 1Column 2

      4201523.4
      5201612.7
    • (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:

      ItemColumn 1Column 2

      42015288.0
      52016277.0
  • 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:

      ItemColumn 1Column 2

      22013284.0
      32014275.0
      42015261.0
      52016247.0
    • (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:
      ItemColumn 1Column 2
      Model Yearb
      12012128.6

      4201595.1
      5201681.1
    • (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:

      ItemColumn 1Column 2

  • 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.

  • Marginal note:Targets — light trucks of the 2017 model year and subsequent model years

    (7) The CO2 emission target value applicable to a given group of light trucks of the 2017 model year and subsequent model years corresponds to the value determined for that group in accordance with section 1818(c)(3)(i) of Title 40, chapter I, subchapter C, part 86, subpart S, of the CFR.
