... For diesel engines, include the ca pabilities of emissions control systems on advanced   1. Broadly assess the methodologies and programs diesel engines to meet current and possible future used to develop standards for passenger cars and criteria pollutant emissions standards, impacts on light trucks under current and proposed CAFE fuel consumption of emissions control systems, and programs and make recommendations for future the fuel characteristics needed to enable low emis programs, including recommendations concerning sions diesel technologies.

... Include committee should examine the fuel saving potential an analysis of how technology implementation is for technologies such as adaptive cruise control, likely to impact capital equipment and engineering, real-time traffic alerts, tire pressure sensors, and research and development (ER&D) costs, and at real-time fuel economy information.
