Chapter 30 Analysis on China’s Fuel Consumption Standards and Its Influences on Curb Weight Xiao Li, Fuquan Zhao, Han Hao and Zongwei Liu Abstract With the explosive growth of China ’s vehicle ownership, energy con- sumption and emissions from passenger vehicles become a major concern. The fuel consumption standards for passenger vehicles play an essential role in addressing such issues. In this study, four most important aspects of China’s fuel consumption standards, i.e., evaluation standard, constraint form, basic curb weight and the slope, are investigated. By establishing the database comprising the major char- acteristics of 2010–2015 new vehicles, the rationale of each aspect and the influ- ences on China’s vehicle market and manufacture are analyzed. The results indicate that the evaluation standard and constraint form have strong impacts on the moti- vation of manipulation and the stress of achieving the standard targets. On the other hand, the basic curb weight and the slope have strong impacts on the change of curb weight and technology friendliness of lightweighting. Keywords Fuel consumption standards The standard targets Curb weight 30.1 Introduction Facing the increasingly severe challenges of energy crisis and environmental degradation, China began to implement fuel consumption standards as from 2005, including four phases of year 2005–2008, 2009–2012, 2012–2015 and 2016–2020 [1], as is shown in Fig. 30.1. Among them, phase I and phase II regulate fuel consumption limits according to the curb weight, but there is no actual statistics, constraint or punishment. From phase III, China introduced the concept of CAFC X. Li F. Zhao H. Hao Z. Liu () State Key Laboratory of Automotive Safety and Energy, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China e-mail: zw.liu@ X.
