The gap between diesel vehicle emissions in laboratory tests compared to those in use has been addressed by the introduction of the Real Driving Emissions (RDE) requirements. Modern diesel technology now demonstrates low emissions on the road over a wide range of driving conditions. This paper further demonstrates that consistent low nitrogen oxide (NOx) and particle number (PN) emissions can be achieved over a wide range of driving conditions beyond Euro 6d RDE requirements, with emission control technologies combined in an integrated approach.An LNT (Lean NOx Trap) is combined with a dual-dosing SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) system. Low-load NOx control is achieved by the LNT in combination with a close-coupled SCR coated on the Diesel Particulate Filter (SDPF). High load conditions, on the other hand, are covered by the underfloor SCR system with a second AdBlue® injector. A P0 48V mild-hybrid system is also available to support the NOx control and to ensure good driving performance and fuel efficiency. An advanced control strategy is implemented to ensure optimal interaction between all emission control functionalities. The system was implemented on a C-segment demonstrator vehicle.The paper discusses the emissions tests performed and the results achieved. A combination of tests on the road and in the lab were carried out to cover a wide range of driving conditions. Special attention was paid to the robustness of the emission performance under urban and motorway driving conditions. Results demonstrate that each aftertreatment component contributes to achieving consistently low NOx emissions under all driving conditions. Particulate emissions are effectively controlled by the DPF.
