Table 2
Euro 6 Emission Limits
A limit of 5,0 mg/km for the mass of particulate emissions applies to vehicles type approved to the emission limits of this table with the previous particulate mass measurement protocol, before 1.9.2011 .
Positive ignition particulate mass and number limits shall apply only to vehicles with direct injection engines.
Until three years after the dates specified in Article 10(4) and (5) for new type approvals and new vehicles respectively, a particle number emission limit of 6,0 × 10 12 #/km shall apply to Euro 6 PI direct injection vehicles upon the choice of the manufacturer. Until those dates at the latest a type approval test method ensuring the effective limitation of the number of particles emitted by vehicles under real driving conditions shall be implemented.
