Proposal to amend Annex 3 of UN Regulation No. 51-02, paragraph 3.1.2.3.2.3, third paragraph, to require gear shifts beginning with (x/n) continue in all gears at which rated engine speed is reached immediately before the rear of the vehicle passes line BB’, rather than being completed in gear X only, based on WP.29-196-08 and WP.29-197-11 findings of non-compliance with permissible sound level requirements for category N₃G vehicles during state control testing.

ISO 362-3:2022 specifies an engineering method for measuring pass-by sound level of a vehicle under controlled indoor conditions using a semi-anechoic chamber. The 2022 edition incorporates technological advancements and improves usability and accuracy of the measurement procedure. Improvements include additional microphones, tire temperature correction harmonized with UN R51.03, clarified indoor room qualification criteria, and normalized torque influence equation. Transitional provisions propose accepting ISO 362-3:2022 for all approvals from entry into force of Supplement 11, while ISO 362-3:2016 remains accepted for five years thereafter.

Consolidation in Supplement 11 includes: clarification of Verification/Adjustment and editorial corrections with transitional provisions (GRBP/2025/20 with GRBP-82-07); correction of Tyre Road Sound Measurement for Indoor-Testing (GRBP-82-22); introduction of ASEP in Annex 7 for BEVs and HEVs (GRBP/2026/4 with GRBP-83-xx); update of ISO standards in Annex 3 and Annex 8 (GRBP/2026/5 with GRBP-83-xx); and reference for Power Definition regarding new UN R177 (GRBP/2026/13).
