Abstract | Factors that must be considered in the development of interim standards that are technologically feasible for 1975 model year vehicles include: the emission control now being achieved on experimental prototypes of 1975 systems at low mileage, the expected deterioration in emission control over the 50,000 mile or five year useful life of the vehicle, slippage in emission control in transferring from experimental to production vehicles, manufacturing lead times and mass production capabilities, and the anticipated severity of performance and driveability problems. |
