Application Summary AI generated
This standard defines the China Automotive Test Cycle (CATC) for light-duty vehicles, specifying speed-time profiles and driving conditions that represent real-world traffic patterns in China. It is applied by manufacturers and regulatory agencies to measure fuel consumption, energy efficiency, and exhaust emissions for type approval and certification of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. The standard replaces previous European-based cycles to better reflect local driving behaviors, road types, and congestion levels in Chinese urban and suburban environments.
