Note to Appendix A Table II: With the appropriate fuel economy targets determined for each unique model type and footprint combination, Manufacturer X's required fleet average fuel economy standard would be calculated as illustrated in Appendix A Figure 1:

Appendix A Figure 1 - Calculation of Manufacturer X's fleet average fuel economy standard using Table II:

Appendix A Figure 2 - Calculation of Manufacturer X's actual fleet average fuel economy performance level using Table I:

Note to Appendix A Figure 2: Since the actual fleet average fuel economy performance of Manufacturer X's fleet is 32.0 mpg, as compared to its required fleet fuel economy standard of 31.6 mpg, Manufacturer X complied with the CAFE standard for MY 2012 as set forth in § 531.5(c).
