Transport Canada's ecoTECHNOLOGY for Vehicles ( eTV ) Program conducts in-depth safety, environmental and performance testing on new, advanced vehicle technologies for passenger cars and heavy-duty trucks.
Results help in the development of environmental and safety regulations, codes, and standards. These measures ensure that new innovations can be introduced in Canada safely and efficiently.
