Summary:

In 1999, ADEME started a national program relating to a comprehensive study on urban transports.Several technical solutions were evaluated to quantify on a real driving condition for buses, on one hand pollutants emissions and fuel consumption, and on the other hand reliability and cost in real existing fleet.There are two different actions types:First of all, representative driving cycles for bus were established by ADEME and industrials partners. On this cycle, pollutants were measured as well as fuel consumption, at the beginning of a program and one year after to quantify reliability and increase/decrease of pollutants emissions. At the same time, under real conditions, each technology was tested on buses fleet in use in a city. Information such as fuel consumption, lubricant analysis, problem on the technology was followed during a one year program.This paper presents main results obtained on these urban buses. For these vehicles, same methodology was used, to set up clear comparison between technologies. An external cost comparison was done using European Cleaner Drive methodology recently set up and mains results are presented
