The Korea's automotive industry have been achieved remarkable growth with many original models for over 28 years since the first original model Pony had developed. And most of the early models were licensed from the other country's makers. Now it is independent with our own technologies and designs, and the automobile is one of the major exporting products of Korea. In the early times the basic design concept of a passenger car didn't reflect the characteristics of the way of domestic life, but today's Korean developed cars have speciffic characters those are distinguished to others not only in the overall body shape but also in the package layout. And it is considered that the Korean cars would have different characteristics to the others in the future. These changes would come from the ways of life of the nations characteristics and they would influence to technologies of development. And the influence would be resulted as another type of sedan which has much differences to the current sedans. The main elements and the reasons for the 'post sedan' have been observed to specify the characters of the future Korean sedan in this research.

To verify the performance of roadside safety facilities, strength and occupant protection test are performed by evaluation criteria. Strength test use a truck and occupant protection test use a sedan. Strength perfomance is analyzed pass rate by post lateral resistance of the safety barrier. Occupant protection performance is analyzed from THIV(Theoretical Head Impact Velocity) and PHD(Post-impact Head Deceleration) by crash cushion test.

DPF technology has been considered as one of the most effective methods for reducing diesel particulate emission. PSA Peugeot Citroen introduced the DPF equipped diesel passenger car, Peugeot 607 HDI Sedan, in 2000 for the first time in the world, in which SiC filter, an oxidation catalyst, cerium based fuel born catalyst and post-injection technology were used for PM regeneration. In the present study, the characteristics of the Peugeot 607 DPF system were studied on chassis dynamometer and real road driving conditions. The change of emissions and fuel economy during 80,000km operation were also tested. Additionally, ash contents accumulated in the DPF filter was analyzed and particle size distributions was investigated after running of 80,000km.
