Abstract
The paper deals with the current regulations on the reduction of passenger cars emissions. It describes a simulation model of a vehicle in Ricardo Ignite software, a comparison of fuel consumption (production CO2) of a conventional vehicle with an internal combustion engine in the "New European Driving Cycle" and "Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Cycle" driving cycles. The goal was to create a vehicle simulation model and to verify it with measured data. In the future, this simulation model can be used for various optimizations which will reduce vehicle fuel consumption (CO2 production) due to constantly more restrictive limits. At the end of the paper, there is a demonstration of a reduction of CO2 emissions when using the so-called downsizing.
