EPA ALPHA Modeling of a Conventional Mid-Size Car with CVT and Comparable Powertrain Technologies (SAE 2016-01-1141). SAE - SOCIETY OF AUTOMOTIVE ENGINEERS. SAE International, Warrendale, PA, (2016).
Impact/Purpose:
As a result of the model refinements and in preparation for the mid-term evaluation of the 2017-2025 LD GHG rule, EPA revalidated the model with newly acquired vehicle data.
Description:
This paper presents the testing and ALPHA modeling of a CVT-equipped 2013 Nissan Altima 2.5S using comparable powertrain technology inputs in the effort to model the current and future U.S. light-duty vehicle fleet approximated using components with comparable levels of performance and technology.
