The article presents calculations of exhaust emissions and fuel consumption under test conditions on a chassis dynamometer test bench. The study describes the realization of the tests and the methodology of the calculation of the exhaust gas flow and the estimation of the fuel consumption based on exhaust emissions. The presented research results and their analysis describe the emission scale of selected gaseous fumes components during full engine load and the fuel consumption associated with such tests. Similar emissions occur during a rapid acceleration of a vehicle in road conditions.
