Proposal to define service life values by region or country of usage, establish methodology for calculating realistic GHG emissions and energy consumption during vehicle use stage at various detail levels, determine discrepancy factors based on real-world performance data, apply deterioration factors to account for vehicle aging effects, quantify leakage emissions including hydrogen and methane, assess maintenance and consumables impacts through manufacturer-provided frequency data or alternative methodologies, and collect primary and secondary data on driving activity, vehicle lifetime, fuel consumption, and maintenance replacement intervals. Service life values for passenger cars shall align with average age of vehicles at point of recycling within the same country, with regional default values provided in Annex 1 to the Resolution.
Proposal to amend the original version (GRVA/2026/15), insert para. 5.3.7.2.1.13. to require the manufacturer to describe in the safety concept the system behaviour in case the driver is detected to be disengaged during a manoeuvre; amend the original version and the 01 series (GRVA/2026/15 and GRVA/2026/17), amend para. 3.5.1. of Annex 3 to require the manufacturer to demonstrate to the Type Approval Authority at least every three years that the safety management system continues to comply with requirements; amend the 01 and 02 series (GRVA/2026/17 and WP.29/2026/86), amend para. 2.3.2. of Appendix 2 of Annex 3; amend the 02 series (WP.29/2026/86), amend para. 4.2.5.2.19.2.1. of Annex 4; and amend the original version, 01 series and 02 series (GRVA/2026/15, GRVA/2026/17 and WP.29/2026/86), amend para. 4.2.5.2.14.1.2. of Annex 4 and para. 4.2.5.2.14.2.1. of Annex 4.
Proposal to amend ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2026/137 to replace placeholder text “[ADS]”, “[XXX]”, and “[number of this Regulation]” with the UN Regulation number upon adoption, amend the cross-reference in paragraph 1.2. to “7.2.3.17.”, amend paragraph 6.2.2.3.8.1. subparagraph (b) to specify gaze directed to “the” driving task relevant area, remove brackets around “7.4.” in paragraph 11.2., add a period after the number in Annex 1 paragraph 5.1., amend Annex 1 Appendix 1 paragraphs 1.4.5. and 1.4.7., renumber paragraphs 1.4.12., 1.4.12.1., and 1.4.12.2. as 1.4.11.5., 1.4.11.5.1., and 1.4.11.5.2., amend Annex 1 Appendix 2, amend Annex 7 table 5 rows 1 and 2 column 7, remove brackets in Annex 8 paragraphs 5.3.1. and 5.3.2., and insert “Mandatory” in Annex 8 table row 1 column 2.
Proposal to amend WP.29/2026/139 to amend para. 4.2.2.3.8.1. subparagraph (b) regarding user engagement to resume the DDT, insert new para. 5.2.1.8.1. requiring manufacturers to document simulation toolchain scope and limitations, amend para. 5.2.1.3.1. regarding manufacturer management of relevant data, amend para. 5.3.1.16. describing ADS responses to failure situations, amend para. 6.3.2.2.3. regarding scenario assessment, amend para. 6.3.3.3.1. regarding confirmatory track testing provisions, amend Annex 5 Tables 3, 4, and 5 regarding scenario specifications and risk manoeuvre conditions, and amend Annex 6 para. 5.3.1. and 5.3.2. regarding DSSAD recording requirements and intervals.
Proposal to introduce new regional requirements from Contracting Parties, in particular from Euro 7 in the EU, including new particle number (PN10) provisions, a new SHED limit for evaporative emissions, updated On-board Fuel Consumption Monitoring provisions, and new annexes with requirements relating to in-vehicle battery durability and a new test for range of Pure Electric Vehicles at low temperatures for UN R154 (Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Procedures (WLTP)).
Devices for monitoring on-board vehicle consumption of fuel and/or electric energy shall determine and store lifetime values of fuel consumed, distance travelled, and energy parameters specified in Appendix 5. Type-approval requires testing per Table A according to vehicle category and fuel type, including Type 1 emissions tests, evaporative emissions tests, durability, OBD checks, and OBFCM accuracy verification. Manufacturers must ensure OBFCM accuracy between −0.05 and +0.05 calculated using specified formulae comparing WLTP-determined and OBFCM-measured consumption. Conformity of production requires periodic testing and audits. Lifetime counter values shall be preserved from 1 January 2029 for new vehicle types; from 1 January 2030, type approvals for non-compliant vehicles shall not be accepted. OBFCM devices must provide standardised, unrestricted access to information via specified ISO and SAE standards.
TF-AVRS submitted a draft new Y-category Passive Safety Regulation to GRSP-79 in June 2026. The regulation addresses fuel system integrity, electrical shock protection, and crash compatibility for frontal, rear-end, and lateral collisions. The Task Force eliminated the R point problem, passenger compartment references, and A and B pillar designations, harmonised mass definitions, and consolidated numbering and cross-references. Open items include determining additional requirements, specific vehicle measurements, and finalising Annex elements. Subsequent informal documents are planned for GRSP-79, with working documents for GRSP-80.
