About Standard Test Conditions:

The approved agencies conduct tests on all the cars under “standard test conditions”. Amongst many parameters, the “standard test conditions” include: 2 persons in the car, AC switched-off; Standard (non-adulterated) fuel; gear changes in a predetermined pattern and at predetermined acceleration levels; standard air pressure in the tyres, wind speed etc. As the “standard test conditions” during tests at the certification agency are identical for all vehicles, irrespective of manufacturer, the customer will able to make correct comparisons of fuel efficiency, across car models.
