Hi,
Anyone know if a new 2021 Caterham 1.6 sigma engine (310 model) is able to pass emissions, specifically in Georgia? Or if they are lenient on providing alternate testing. Trying to figure this out before I commit to a new caterham.
In georgia, a newly built caterham will be titled as the initial year registered, in this case it'll be 2021, and 2021 emissions requirements will be implemented on that vehicle. That means:
1. Passing visible inspection for catalytic converter.
2. Passing fuel cap pressurization.
3. Passing obd2 history of emissions (and I think they look for a Check Engine Light too).
There is a 3 year grace period for 2021 models before it will require emissions testing.
I've contacted the emissions program for information about possible alternate testing (like tailpipe testing) in case the caterham obd2 port doesn't "work" for emissions, but they don't always grant these. I'm trying to avoid having to register it in a non-emissions county.
