EXHAUST EMISSIONS 1966-1972 MODEL YEAR LIGHT DUTY MOTOR VEHICLES

This report describes the results of a surveillance study initiated by the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency to measure gaseous exhaust emissions from 1020 light-duty motor vehicles. Selected privately-owned vehicles, drawn randomly from six metropolitan areas, were tested in as-received condition. The emissions data obtained from these 1966-1972 model-year vehicles are reported in grams per mile of unburned hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and oxides of nitrogen while fuel economy is reported in mpg as determined over the Federal Driving Schedule.
