India presented their revised proposal, document EPPR-03-02e:

  • India prefers to give priority for GTR’s first and subsequent transposition to ECE for categories covered both in SR 1 and RE3.
  • India suggested discussing quadricycles first under the ’58 agreement, as these vehicles are not included in the categorization of SR1.
  • India proposed:
    • To group tailpipe emissions: Cold start pollutant emissions (type I), Idle (II) & CO2 (VII), and make an amendment to GTR2.
    • To group EVAP and crankcase emissions in a new GTR
    • To create a separate, new GTR for OBD
    • To create a separate, new GTR for durability
    • To create a separate, new GTR for performance related tests
  • India proposed to give priority to EVAP, OBD and tailpipe emissions.
  • India suggested to put 2-wheel (L1, L3 & L4-categories) and 3-wheel vehicles (L2 & L5-categories) under a common GTR, but separated in different annexes of the GTR. India added L3 can be given priority.
