Environmental Performance of Vehicles

FIA Foundation EcoTest

The EcoTest is designed to provide a fair, meaningful and objective assessment of the environmental performance of cars. It is intended to inform consumers, so providing an incentive to manufacturers as well as giving credit to those who excel at environmental behaviour. The tests are based on those developed for emission legislation in Europe and extended by procedures and parameters to cover a wide range of real driving in Europe.
