However, during development, the project team was able to exceed the program expectation for engine-out NO x and exhaust temperature control in the catalyst warm-up mode and concluded that the tailpipe NO x targets can be met without the close coupled light-off SCR. Standard calibration is.ideal for feeding the SCR.

New Emissions Analytics study suggests pollution from tire wear now 1,850 times worse than exhaust emissions

Green Car Congress

In early 2020, UK-based independent testing firm Emissions Analytics published a study claiming that tire particulate wear emissions were 1,000 times worse than exhaust emissions ( earlier post ). As a result, distance-specific mass and number emissions can be derived, which can then be compared to equivalent tire metrics.
