Proposal for Supplement 1 to UN R102 to amend provisions for vehicles of categories X and Y and vehicles with an Automated Driving System operating at speeds above 6 km/h. Amendments add logic signal transmission to the ADS indicating power system/control system failures, correct engagement of positive locking systems, and maximum extension of hydraulic or pneumatic close-coupling devices. Testing provisions are modified for ADS-equipped vehicles, including steering equipment actuation at maximum performance allowed by the ADS.
The amendment extends application to vehicles of categories X and Y, and vehicles with manual mode operating above 6 km/h equipped with an Automated Driving System. The Regulation was originally drafted for vehicles with driver and manual driving controls; the amendment extends application to vehicles without driver and without manual driving controls. For vehicles equipped with an ADS other than categories X and Y, no special provisions or exemptions apply in any driving mode.
Proposal to amend and supersede document ECE/TRANS/GRSG/2026/16. Supplement 1 to the 01 series of amendments to UN R166 addresses vehicles of categories X and Y. Vehicles of category Y and category X without manual mode intended for on-board operation are exempted from the scope. Vehicles of category X equipped with manual mode seated in a driver’s seat must comply with general provisions. Manual operation other than seated in a driver’s seat may apply alternative provisions. The Regulation applies to vehicles of category M1 and N1. New definitions of “Safety Concept” are introduced. Requirements address close-proximity front and lateral field of vision from adjusted driver’s ocular points.
New paragraphs introduce provisions for vehicles of categories X and Y and vehicles with manual mode operating above 6 km/h equipped with an Automated Driving System. The regulation extends application to vehicles without driver and manual driving controls. Special provisions or exemptions do not apply to vehicles equipped with an ADS other than categories X and Y in manual or automated driving mode. Footnotes amended to reference ECE/TRANS/WP.29/78/Rev. 8.
Proposal to amend UN R167 to account for vehicles of categories X and Y. Vehicles of category Y and category X without manual mode intended for on-board operation are exempted from this Regulation. Vehicles equipped with an ADS must comply when operated manually by a driver on-board. Three manual modes are considered: remote-control operation near the vehicle (exempted), seated operation in driver’s seat (general provisions apply), and on-board operation other than seated (alternative provisions apply). Regulation applies to vehicles of categories M₂, M₃, N₂ and N₃. New definitions and approval mark arrangements are introduced. This document is intended to amend and supersede document ECE/TRANS/GRSG/2026/24.
Proposal for supplement 45 to UN R61 to amend the Regulation to account for vehicles of categories X and Y without driver, driver cab, and manual driving controls, as well as vehicles with manual mode operating at speeds above 6 km/h equipped with an Automated Driving System Feature of Type 2. The amendments modify definitions of external surface and cab rear panel, introduce definitions for ADSF-1 and ADSF-2, and specify that in modes where an ADS feature is active, basically the same requirements apply regarding external projections.
Proposal to amend UN R46 to introduce Supplement 1 to the 07 Series of Amendments addressing vehicles of categories X and Y, and vehicles with manual mode operating above 6 km/h equipped with an Automated Driving System. The Regulation does not apply to vehicles of category Y. For vehicles of category X with manual driving mode operated on-board not using a driver’s seat, alternative requirements demonstrating equivalent safety may apply in agreement with the Technical Service and Type Approval Authority.
