Actually no, it doesn't. J1349 is the standard virtually every automaker has used for their ratings since the early 1970's, and it requires a lot more than an educated guess. The new J2723 standard everybody has been talking about doesn't actually supercede the old J1349 process, it simply means that a third party is watching you when you carry that J1349 process out.
