The LH gasoline hydraulic hybrid shows an extreme reduction in NO x compared to a diesel baseline. Broadly, the test results show significant reductions in NO x , particularly against a non-hybrid diesel baseline, and fuel economy improvements of up to 18% for the vehicle and under the drive cycles tested.

The chart shows heat release from a standard diesel combustion cycle (solid black line), overlaid with the heat release from a TSCi cycle (dashed blue line). TSCi combustion minimizes heat loss to the cylinder walls and in the exhaust. The Syracuse team, for example, is using exhaust gas heat to help bring the fuel to SC states.)

During the period from 2010 to 2015, JRC—involved in the process from the beginning—tested the various versions of the new test cycle and test procedure on a number of vehicles that were also tested under NEDC conditions. Moving from NEDC to WLTP did not have much impact on NO x from gasoline vehicles and CO from diesel vehicles.
