531.6 Measurement and calculation procedures.
a The fleet average fuel economy performance of all passenger automobiles that are manufactured by a manufacturer in a model year shall be determined in accordance with procedures established by the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency EPA under 49
U.S.C. 32904 and set forth in 40 CFR
part 600.
b For model years 2017 and later, a manufacturer is eligible to increase the fuel economy performance of passenger cars in accordance with procedures established by the EPA set forth in 40
CFR part 600, subpart F, including any adjustments to fuel economy the EPA
allows, such as for fuel consumption improvements related to air conditioning efficiency and off-cycle technologies. Manufacturers must provide reporting on these technologies as specified in 49 CFR 537.7 by the required deadlines.
1 Efficient air conditioning technologies. A manufacturer that seeks to increase its fleet average fuel economy performance through the use of technologies that improve the efficiency of air conditioning systems must follow the requirements in 40 CFR
86.186812. Fuel consumption improvement values resulting from the

use of those air conditioning systems must be determined in accordance with 40 CFR 600.51012c3i.
2 Off-cycle technologies on EPAs predefined list or using 5-cycle testing.
A manufacturer that seeks to increase its fleet average fuel economy performance through the use of off-cycle technologies must follow the requirements in 40 CFR
86.186912. A manufacturer is eligible to gain fuel consumption improvements for predefined off-cycle technologies in accordance with 40 CFR 86.186912b or for technologies tested using the EPAs 5-cycle methodology in accordance with 40 CFR 86.186912c.
The fuel consumption improvement is determined in accordance with 40 CFR
600.51012c3ii.
3 Off-cycle technologies using the alternative EPA-approved methodology.
A manufacturer is eligible to increase its fuel economy performance through use of an off-cycle technology requiring an application request made to the EPA in accordance with 40 CFR 86.186912d.
i Eligibility under the corporate average fuel economy CAFE program requires compliance with paragraphs b3iA through C of this section.
Paragraphs b3iA, B, and D of this section apply starting in model year 2024.
A A manufacturer seeking to increase its fuel economy performance

using the alternative methodology for an off-cycle technology, if prior to the applicable model year, must submit to EPA a detailed analytical plan and be approved i.e., for its planned test procedure and model types for demonstration in accordance with 40
CFR 86.186912d.
B A manufacturer seeking to increase its fuel economy performance using the alternative methodology for an off-cycle technology must also submit an official credit application to EPA and obtain approval in accordance with 40
CFR 86.186912e prior to September of the given model year.
C Manufacturers plans, applications, and requests approved by the EPA must be made in consultation with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA. To expedite NHTSAs consultation with the EPA, a manufacturer must concurrently submit its application to NHTSA if the manufacturer is seeking off-cycle fuel economy improvement values under the CAFE program for those technologies.
For off-cycle technologies that are covered under 40 CFR 86.186912d, NHTSA will consult with the EPA
regarding NHTSAs evaluation of the specific off-cycle technology to ensure its impact on fuel economy and the suitability of using the off-cycle
