What does WLTP mean?

Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP) is a laboratory test to determine the levels of pollutants, CO₂ emissions, and fuel consumption of light-duty vehicles, including traditional and hybrid cars, as well as the range of fully electric vehicles.
WLTP was developed by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) and is intended to replace the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) test procedure, which was criticized for not accurately reflecting real-world driving conditions.
