Dataset: Identifying Roadway Physical Characteristics that Contribute to Emissions Differences between Hybrid and Conventional Vehicles

Research Product Type
Data
A second-by-second data set obtained from monitoring vehicle emissions over a series of 75 test runs from 2 test vehicles over an 18-month period during real-world on-road operations was used to assess emissions differences between two propulsion systems and attribute these differences to physical roadway/infrastructure characteristics.
