INTRODUCTION

The Government of India felt the need for a permanent agency to expedite the
publication of standards and development of test facilities in parallel when the
work of preparation of standards is going on, as the development of improved
safety critical parts can be undertaken only after the publication of the standard
and commissioning of test facilities. To this end, the erstwhile Ministry of Surface
Transport (MoST) has constituted a permanent Automotive Industry Standard
Committee (AISC) vide order no. RT-11028/11/97-MVL dated September 15,
1997. The standards prepared by AISC will be approved by the permanent
CMVR Technical Standing Committee (CTSC). After approval, The Automotive
Research Association of India, (ARAI), Pune, being the secretariat of
the AIS Committee, has published this standard. For better dissemination of this
information, ARAI may publish this document on their website.

Worldwide hybrid electric vehicles are gaining popularity with authorities and
users because they can deliver better on-road fuel efficiency (and thus reduced
green house gases) and reduced pollution as compared to similar combustion
engine vehicles.

The Indian automotive industry is also developing and/or producing hybrid

electric vehicles to meet this demand. Consequently a framework of type approval
needs to be created under the CMVR Rules 1989 to ensure that these vehicles
comply with the appropriate safety and emission norms. AIS-102 (Part 1) is the
result of such an exercise and addresses four wheelers with gross vehicle mass not
exceeding 3500 kgs and L category vehicles, which are basically vehicles tested
on the chassis dynamometer for ensuring compliance to tailpipe emissions
requirements.

The purpose of this standard AIS-102 (Part 2) is to provide an appropriate

frame-work for type approval for four wheelers whose gross vehicle mass exceeds
3500 kgs. The tailpipe emission compliance of these categories of vehicles is
certified by an engine dynamometer test procedure.

This standard is to be treated as an interim standard for the following reasons.

1. Hybrid Electric Vehicle technology worldwide is still in its infancy and

growing continuously to achieve better performance and efficiencies. This
standard would need to be upgraded progressively to incorporate this
evolving technology.

2. Partly because the technology is in its infancy, no worldwide

comprehensive standards exist for legislative approval of hybrid electric
vehicles in these vehicle categories. In order to encourage the early
implementation of these Hybrid Electric Vehicles into wide-spread use,
India has taken leadership in creating these regulations. This standard
may need to take the benefit of the new elements in legislation that may
be introduced in regulations worldwide as they evolve.

III
 AIS-102 (Part 2)

3. This regulation requires that the combustion engine of the hybrid electric
vehicle comply as stand alone entity with the tailpipe emissions
requirements based on the engine dynamometer test procedure given in
document no. MoRTH/TAP/115-116. While this meets the minimum
requirements of emissions, it fails to encourage technology innovations
where more fuel efficient vehicles could be developed by having the
complete power train holistically deliver further reduced levels of green
house gases and other pollutants. The AISC sub-committee responsible
for this standard is already seized of this objective and is working towards
creating a test procedure which would encourage development of vehicles
which can better meet the twin objective of better fuel economy and
lower pollution.

4. Because of the infancy of the technology, both for part-1 and part-2, it has
been decided to create a support framework for type approval and once
both the technology and the approval procedures reach the required
maturation, these approval requirements can be appropriately embedded
into the CMVR Rules 1989 and the standards called therein.

The AISC panel and the Automotive Industry Standard Committee

(AISC) responsible for preparation of this standard is given in Annex C
and Annex D respectively.
