Product Code:SAE J1082
Title:Fuel Economy Measurement Road Test Procedure (Cancelled Oct 2002)
Issuing Committee:Light Duty Vehicle Performance And Economy Measure Committee
Scope:This SAE Standard incorporates driving cycles that produce fuel consumption data relating to Urban, Suburban, and Interstate driving patterns and is intended to be used to determine the relative fuel economy among vehicles and driving patterns under warmed-up conditions on test tracks, suitable roads, or chassis dynamometers. The urban driving cycle forms the basis of a Cold-Start Test Procedure described in SAE J1256.PurposeThis document provides uniform testing procedures for measuring the fuel economy of light-duty vehicles (motor vehicles designed primarily for transportation of persons or property and rated at 4500 kg (10 000 lb) or less) on suitable roads.
