Proposal to clarify that the maximum sound pressure requirement at the front plane at standstill condition in reverse shall be equal to the maximum level requirement in motion (defined by the QRTV task force as 75 dB(A) for both standstill and reverse driving).

This proposal aims at aligning the emission of AVAS sounds with safety needs

Proposal to delete this footnote 2 from the regulation

Gives the background to proposal for the Application of Noise Limits to EVs fitted with Exterior Sound Enhancement Systems (ESES) to UN R51

EC resulting position to
• limit the emission of AVAS to what is strictly necessary for safety
• corollary: prohibit unnecessary noise

Proposal to clarify the original intent of the Task Force on Quiet Road Transport Vehicles (TF QRTV) conclusion
