PowerPedia:Super Ultra Low Emission Vehicle
From PESWiki
(Redirected from Super Ultra Low Emission Vehicle)
To continue to improve air quality, tighter standards are needed. The California Air Resources Board Super Ultra-Low Emission Vehicles (SULEV) standard is the cleanest emission standard that a gasoline vehicle (but not a vehicle) can meet.
SULEV represents today's state-of-the-art in emissions control, and is a substantial leap forward compared to the current federal standard (http://www.dieselnet.com/standards/us/light.html). A SULEV-rated vehicle approximately 90% cleaner than the average new car. SULEV standards are based on a 120,000 mile lifetime instead of a 100,000 mile lifetime for Tier 1 standards.
