tenders of vehicles with even lower emissions, such as those powered by alternative fuels, can be awarded
a higher score in the evaluation by making emissions part of the award criteria.
exhAuSt gAS eMISSIOnS
vehicles comply with the euro 6 exhaust emissions standard or equivalent.
geAr ShIft IndICAtOrS
vehicles are equipped with a gear shift indicator that increases eiciency by telling drivers when to shift
gears up or down.
tIre PreSSure MOnItOrIng SySteMS tPMS
vehicles are equipped with tPmS. tire pressure inluences fuel consumption through its impact on
rolling resistance of the vehicle.
fueL COnSuMPtIOn dISPLAy
vehicles are equipped with a mechanism that displays fuel consumption information to the driver and assists
the driver in more eco-eicient driving.
AIr COndItIOnIng gASeS
there are various types of air conditioning gases, some of which have damage the ozone layer andor
contribute to climate change. If the vehicle is itted with an air-conditioning system
designed to contain luorinated greenhouse gases, the speciic gas has a global warming potential GwP ≤
150 related to co
2
and a time horizon of 100 years. If the GwP is higher, the leakage rate from the system
does not exceed 40g of luorinated greenhouse gases per year for a single evaporator system, or 60g of
luorinated greenhouse gases per year for a dual e vaporator system.
the tenderer provides the name, formula and GwP of the refrigerating gas used in the air conditioning
system. If a mixture of gases is used, the GwP is calculated as follows, with:
• GWP=∑Substance X1 x GWPX1 + Substance X2 x GWPX2 + …
Substance Xn x GwPXn- • where n is the number of gases and is the
contribution by weight with a weight tolerance of +- 1 .

• If GWP is 150, leakage tests results must be provided.
reCyCLed COntent
75 per cent of the aluminium andor steel used for the production of the vehicle is recycled second fusion.
reCyCLAbILIty
vehicles and their parts are recyclable or reusable. the components are made of materials that can be
easily separated for recycling.
SOurCIng
the tenderer provides proof of compliance with inter- national working standards ILo core conventions,
as under the mandatory requirement but veriied through an independent third-party.
wArrAnty And durAbILIty
the supplier guarantees the vehicle for at least three years or 100,000 km, whichever occurs irst.
Professional end-of-life service maximizes eiciency and value. the tenderer ofers:
• An end-of-life take back and recycling service within the countryregion of use of the vehicle; andor
• A used vehicle refurbishment program.
