Abstract
Today most countries, examine the problem of car pollution. They enacted laws to prevent environmental polluting cars. They also try to find out wither pollution standards are applied by cars manufacturers or not. The purpose of this study is to rank domestically produced cars quality based on manufacturing technology and exhaust emissions. Variables HC, CO, O2, CO2, and λ are analyzed for 10 selected car types, and results are presented with a box chart and finally, the considered cars are ranked according to the scored values. In practice, regarding the results of pollution variable, domestically produced cars can be ranked in terms of pollution quality parameters. According to the numeric range determined for each variable, a number is assigned to each car and finally, the average score is calculated for each car.

Abstract
Today, many car manufacturers can achieve emission standards through catalytic converters. The goals of this research was in tow sections. Initially, the amount of pollutants was measured to determine the role of the catalytic converters in the reduction of pollutants for 3 types of vehicles and in 50 cases, in the two stages before and after the catalytic converter. Then, to achieve the useful life of the catalytic converter, out of 750 test vehicle emissions were tested. Data analysis was done by SPSS software, which shows that catalytic converters can reduce up to 80% of exhaust emissions. This is independent of the type of vehicle. The useful life of the catalytic converters is up to 36 months, so they should be replaced at least every three years. Also, the pollutant standards of the technical examination centers are reviewed. For this purpose, the pollutants have been measured in 2200 vehicles. Due to the huge difference in technology, cars are divided into two main categories of carburetor and injector and are analyzed statistically. Eventually, for each group of these vehicles, the values of HC, CO and O2 are obtained.
