GRPE-76-10 | GRPE highlights from the June and November 2017 WP.29 sessions

WP.29/1131 | Report of the World Forum on its 172nd (June 2017) session

WP.29/1135 | Report of the World Forum on its 173rd (November 2017) session

GRPE/2018/6 | Proposal for a new Supplement to the 06 and 07 series of amendments to Regulation No. 83 Proposal to clarify the text with regard to the extension of approvals for category N vehicles in order to avoid a possible misinterpretation that extensions may not be granted to vehicles with a reference mass greater than the mass of the type-approved vehicle.

GRPE/2018/7 | Proposal for a new Supplement to the 06 and 07 series of amendments to Regulation No. 83 Proposal to adapt the 06 and 07 series of amendments to Regulation No. 83 to Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) warning and inducement systems to current vehicles, emissions requirements and reagent infrastructure. In light of further vehicle weight reduction for CO2 optimization and the resultant vehicle packaging challenges, diesel cars will likely have smaller AdBlue® reagent tanks. For passenger cars, the warning indicator to refill AdBlue® has to be activated at 2,400 km of remaining reagent range which could result in very frequent refills of smaller reagent tanks. This proposal would allow for reagent refill inducement warnings as a percentage of tank capacity or as a function of the average driving range with a complete tank of fuel.

In light of further vehicle weight reduction for CO2 optimization and the resultant use of smaller AdBlue® reagent tanks, this proposal would allow for reagent refill inducement warnings as a percentage of tank capacity or as a function of the average driving range with a complete tank of fuel.

GRPE/2018/9 | Proposal for a new Supplement to the 05 series of amendments to Regulation No. 49 Proposal to improve the "random check requirement" and define the rounding of test results calculated according to Annex 4A in the 05 series of amendments.

GRPE/2018/10 | Proposals for a new Supplement to the 06 series of amendments to Regulation No. 49 Proposal to improve the Engine Control Unit (ECU) torque signal validation requirement in the 06 series of amendments to R49 with regard to dual-fuel or flex-fuel vehicles. Under the regulation, the ECU torque information can be calibrated only to one fuel's heat value (usually the basic reference fuel) even though the heat value of the alternative fuel is different. In order to increase the accuracy of the torque values used for calculating the emission results during in-service conformity testing, OICA proposes to change the provisions to either:<ol class="alpha"><li>Demonstrate that both fuels comply because the ODB system is able to detect the fuel used, or</li><li>Determine the torque deviation caused by the alternative fuel heat value compared to the standard fuel and apply this correction factor to calculate a more accurate power signal for the emission calculation.</li></ol>
