Subregulation 2

Amended byS 934/2023 wef 01/01/2024S 210/2021 wef 01/04/2021

Subject to paragraph (2A), for any vehicle excluding an electric vehicle or a plug‑in hybrid electric vehicle, but including a conventional hybrid electric vehicle, the emission level is the amount —

(a)

measured in accordance with the provisions of Commission Regulation (EU) No. 2017/1151, UNECE Regulation No. 154 or WLTP Japan; and

(b)

submitted to the Registrar under section 41(a)(ii) of the Energy Conservation Act (Cap. 92C).

For a special light commercial vehicle —

(a)

that is not an electric vehicle; and

(b)

the emission level for carbon dioxide of which has not been measured in accordance with paragraph (2),the emission level is deemed to be more than 216 g/km.

Subregulation 3

Amended byS 210/2021 wef 01/04/2021S 167/2023 wef 01/04/2023S 934/2023 wef 01/01/2024S 934/2023 wef 01/01/2024S 934/2023 wef 01/01/2024

For an electric vehicle or a plug‑in hybrid electric vehicle (excluding a conventional hybrid electric vehicle) the emission level is A + (B × C) where —

(a)

A is the weighted carbon dioxide emission data for the vehicle —

(i)

that is —

(A)

for an electric vehicle, zero; and (B)for a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, measured in accordance with the provisions of Commission Regulation (EU) No. 2017/1151, UNECE Regulation No. 154 or WLTP Japan; and
