A two-year remote sensing measurement program was carried out in Hong Kong to obtain a large dataset of on-road diesel vehicle emissions. Analysis was performed to evaluate the effect of vehicle manufacture year (1949–2015) and engine size (0.4–20 L) on the emission rates and high-emitters. The results showed that CO emission rates of larger engine size vehicles were higher than those of small vehicles during the study period, while HC and NO were higher before manufacture year 2006 and then became similar levels between manufacture years 2006 and 2015. CO, HC and NO of all vehicles showed an unexpectedly increasing trend during 1998–2004, in particular ≥6001 cc vehicles. However, they all decreased steadily in the last decade (2005–2015), except for NO of ≥6001 cc vehicles during 2013–2015. The distributions of CO and HC emission rates were highly skewed as the dirtiest 10 …
