Proposal to harmonize the requirements of the 06 and 07 series of amendments, align with UN R48 wording to ensure consistent type-approval test conditions with the introduction of the 08 series of amendments (to introduce the possibility to switch OFF rear position lamps and other lamps when ambient light conditions outside the vehicle are above 7,000 lux in order to avoid unnecessary fuel consumption). The aim of the document is to reach consensus to enable adoption of a proposal during the next GRPE session (88th session in June 2023).
12. The representative from OICA introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRPE/2023/10, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRPE/2023/11 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRPE/2023/12, which content had already been discussed in previous sessions of GRPE. GRPE agreed with the content of the proposal.
13. The representative from OICA introduced GRPE-87-13-Rev.2. The representative from the Netherlands sought clarification on the modifications provided in the revision of this document. The representative from OICA clarified the justification had been improved. The representative from Japan suggested to add the word “coolant” between the words “engine temperature” for better clarity. GRPE agreed with the content of the proposal.
14. GRPE adopted GRPE-87-13-Rev.2 as reflected in Annex IV to the session and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their June 2023 sessions as draft new supplement to the 05 Series of Amendments to UN Regulation No. 83.
15. GRPE adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRPE/2023/10 and GRPE-87-13-Rev.2, as combined in Annex V to the session report, and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their June 2023 sessions as draft new supplement to the 06 Series of Amendments to UN Regulation No. 83.
16. GRPE adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRPE/2023/10 and GRPE-87-13-Rev.2, as combined in Annex VI to the session report, and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their June 2023 sessions as draft new supplement to the 07 Series of Amendments to UN Regulation No. 83 respectively.
14. The representative from OICA introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRPE/2022/14, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRPE/2022/15, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRPE/2022/16, GRPE-86-08, GRPE-86-09, GRPE-86-10, GRPE-86-11 proposing to amend the 06 and 07 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 83, the 01 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 101 and the original, 01, 02 and 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 154 to ensure consistent type-approval test conditions with the introduction of the 08 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 48 on rear position lamps.
18. The representative from the European Commission required proposals to be bundled so regulatory texts are not updated at every GRPE session, that increases the administrative burden and might be perceived as bad legislative development.
19. To streamline the adoption process, the Chair requested the secretariat to organize all proposals in a summary table, to have a concise view on the proposals for each series of amendments to any given UN Regulation (GRPE-86-32-Rev.1).
20. GRPE agreed to adopt and submit for consideration to the November 2022 session of WP.29 all proposals in dark green in GRPE-86-32-Rev.1. GRPE agreed with the content of all proposals in light green in GRPE-86-32-Rev.1 but to postpone submission to WP.29. GRPE requested more time to scrutinize or finalize proposals in light red in GRPE-86-32-Rev.1.
