Geneva
Agenda Item 17.1.
GTR No. 2 (Worldwide Motorcycle emission Test Cycle (WMTC))

109. The representative of EU, on behalf of the Chair of the IWG on Environmental and Propulsion Performance Requirements (EPPR) for L-category vehicles, summarized the work progress of the IWG. He highlighted the progress made in the three priority subjects identified and selected for the first stage of work: a draft GTR on evaporative and crankcase emissions, a draft GTR on on-board diagnostics and an entire revision of GTR No. 2. He added that AC.3 could expect documents for consideration at the June and November 2016 sessions. He noted that there is limited time to complete all work and, therefore, requested an extension of the mandate. He reminded AC.3 of the survey conducted by EU as part of the Euro 5 impact study and encouraged all to take part in the survey. He noted that the next meeting of the IWG would be held in Brussels in September 2015. The representative of IMMA recalled the agreed priority on powered two wheelers, in particular two wheelers with petrol engines, to facilitate the coordination of work. AC.3 agreed to extend the mandate of the group until December 2020, as requested, and to establish WP.29-166-20 as ECE/TRANS/WP.29/AC.3/36/Rev.1.
