In this case, the following additional provisions apply: (a) At the request of the manufacturer and with the agreement of the responsible authority, the Extra High phase may be excluded for determining the regenerative factor Ki for Class 2 and Class 3 vehicles. (b) Instead of the criterion described in paragraph 2.2. of this Annex the criterion shall be based on the WLTP test mass: The test mass of each vehicle in the family must be less than or equal to the test mass of the vehicle used for the Ki demonstration test plus 250 kg. (c) Additive or multiplicative Ki is valid and is to be applied accordingly."
