I found the wikipedia entry the easiest to follow:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_economy_in_automobiles

here are some others:

Thanks.
I looked at one time and never found the WIKI. The Test schedules was informative.
You're right. WIKI was definitely easiest to follow. (And that was none to clear.)
So it looks like only one vehicle really needs to be tested and it may be very difficult on a manual trans vehicle.
It doesn't appear to specify who's lab and dyno need to be used for the test runs.

They just over the 20 million mark in funding currently. I dont know what it cost to build 25 preproduction cars but it cant be cheap as economies of scale are small compared to building 25,000 cars. I doubt they cost 1 million a piece.
