Proposal as approved by the GRE and GRSG to add classifications covering agricultural trailers and towed agricultural machinery in the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3).

The objective of this document is to provide recommendations for the minimum quality of market fuels (i.e. gasoline and diesel) that should be introduced concurrently with the corresponding emissions standards. They complement the motor vehicle and NRMM pollutant emission standards that a country or a region may be considering to introduce.

Revised proposal to introduce general performance guidelines into the annex on automated driver assistance systems in order to set initial safety considerations to guide the commercialization of this emerging technology. Specifically addresses remote-controlled parking systems (RCP).

Proposal to establish an informal expert group with a mandate for the exchange of information and experiences concerning regulations, policy measures, and standardization efforts related to the chemical compounds used in vehicle interiors and the health of vehicle occupants. If warranted, the group would develop recommendations/guidelines for inclusion as a new annex to the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (RE3) and the 1998 Agreement’s Special Resolution No. 1 (SR1).

Comments from the European Commission in response to the proposal of the GRE Informal Group on Agricultural Vehicle Lighting Installation (AVLI) to introduce new categories of vehicles, namely agricultural trailers and towed machinery, into the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (document GRSG/2014/25).

Proposal to introduce general performance guidelines into the annex on automated driver assistance systems in order to set initial safety considerations to guide the commercialization of this emerging technology.

European Commission proposal to revise the proposal of the GRE Informal Group on Agricultural Vehicle Lighting Installation (AVLI) to add new vehicle categories in the Consolidation Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles to cover agricultural trailers and towed machinery. The EC aims to bring the proposal and Regulation (EU) 167/2013 into alignment.

Proposal to add classifications covering agricultural trailers and towed agricultural machinery in the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3).

List of terms defined in regulations under the purview of the Working Party on Brakes and Running Gear presented to facilitate discussions on the harmonization of such terms and definitions.

In document GRSG/2014/25, the AVLI informal group proposed to add classes and definitions for agricultural vehicles to the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles. The proposal raised consistency issues for the EU with respect to vehicle definitions that will be introduced by Regulation (EU) 167/2013 in 2016. Therefore, the EU Commission services have developed two alternative proposals: one in full alignment with the definitions used in the EU regulation and one based on the AVLI group definitions with small changes to achieve consistency with the EU legislation.

Proposal to add classifications covering agricultural trailers and towed agricultural machinery in the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3), originally raised by GRSG. This version includes comments from its review by GRSP.

List of terms used across regulations under the purview of the Working Party on Pollution and Energy where the definitions provided in the regulations differ. The intention is to aid discussions on whether the establishment of common definitions is warranted.

Proposal to add classifications covering agricultural trailers and towed agricultural machinery in the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3) transmitted from GRSG to GRSP for input.

As part of a broad project to identify possible incoherences across definitions of terms used in UN Regulations, the secretariat has prepared this list of definitions under the responsibility of GRSG.

Series of editorial corrections and clarifications to the resolution prepared by the GRB.

Proposal by the WP.29 secretariat to consider amending the Consolidated Resolution to adhere with provisions of the UN Regulations concerning noise limits. Presently, the resolution (which provides a framework and general reference for UN Regulations) permits a 5 db(A) tolerance in measuring noise levels while the UN Regulations 51, 41 and 63 referred to in the resolution permit narrower margins of 1 db(A) or 3 db(A).

Results from the project to review and eventually harmonized technical terms and abbreviations used across UN Regulations.

Report to the GRPE on the project to standardize WP.29 terms used in reference to vehicle propulsion systems.

Recommendations by AECC, CLEPA, EUROMOT, and OICA for minimum quality attributes of market fuels (i.e. gasoline and diesel) to be introduced “in parallel, and at the same time, to complement the level of motor vehicle and non-road mobile machinery pollutant emission standards that a country or region may be considering to introduce”.

Presentation on the status, open issues, and next steps in the project to standardize selected terms used in UN Regulations and Global Technical Regulations with regard to vehicle propulsion technologies.
