GTR 25 establishes alternative test and verification methods for heavy-duty vehicle energy consumption. China released test method GB/T 18386.2-2022 based on chassis dynamometers using continuous cycle and shortened methods. Test conditions include temperature of 25°C ± 5°C, initial battery SOC of 20%, and pre-conditioning soak and charge for minimum 6 hours and maximum 36 hours. The torque meter method measures road load without disabling regenerative braking, achieving resistance matching within 5% error. Test verification includes vehicle selection across mileage groups 0, 200,000, 400,000, and 600,000 km, with on-board data collection and sensor accuracy consistency analysis post-durability.
Guóbiāo (国标) — literally “national standard” in Chinese (国 = national, 标 = standard). GB is a mandatory national standard (强制性国家标准); GB/T is a recommended voluntary national standard (推荐性国家标准), where T stands for tuījiàn (推荐 = recommended); and GB/Z is non-binding guiding technical document (指导性技术文件), where Z stands for zhǐdǎo (指导 = guiding).
