Abstract

The article discusses the subject of light duty vehicles exhaust emissions in real driving conditions and their connection with fuel consumption. Tests were carried out in the Poznan agglomeration area on roads with various speed limits. The driver was to drive the same distance first driving in an aggressive manner than normally. Emissions of the following compounds were measured using a SEMTECH analyzer by Sensors Inc.: hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides and carbon dioxide. As a result the tests allowed to evaluate the influence of the driving style on the exhaust emissions and refer it to the currently enforced Euro 6 standard.
