The disclosure provides a system for treating an exhaust gas stream from a gasoline engine. The system is configured to introduce controlled quantities of hydrogen gas into the exhaust gas stream upstream of a catalyst article during a cold-start period. Further provided are related methods of treating such exhaust streams. Such systems and methods are useful in reducing a level of one or more of hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen oxide in a gaseous exhaust stream from a gasoline engine.
