Proposal to amend para. 3.3.1.2. to specify that the value for ‘a’ in the approval marking shall be at least 5 mm, and add a new para. 3.3.4.4.1. establishing requirements for labels used for additional approval markings specific to the device, including durability for the useful life of the device, legibility, indelible letters and figures, and durable fixing that cannot be removed without destroying or defacing the labels.

Proposal to:

• Add a new paragraph 3.3.4.4.1. concerning labels for additional approval markings,
• Amend paragraph 4.13.1. point (b) to modify requirements for luminous intensity when elements stop emitting light,
• Amend paragraph 5.3.3.2. to specify luminous intensity requirements for ADB for vehicles of category L₃,
• Amend paragraph 5.3.3.7. to insert a new Part C to Table 13 with type approval photometric requirements for adaptation of the driving beam,
• Amend Notes to Table 13 to address ADB for vehicles of category L₃,
• Amend paragraph 6.2.1.1. to modify deviation requirements for driving-beams,
• Delete paragraph 6.2.1.1.1.2.1.,
• Amend Table 28 row BR and Table 29 row BR to modify luminous intensity values,
• Amend Table 35 concerning Class R driving-beam bend lighting system requirements,
• Replace table note references in Annex 4 paragraph 1.6.2.1.,
• Add a new Figure A13-VII to Annex 13 with a marking example,
• Renumber former Figures A13-VII and A13-VIII as A13-VIII and A13-IX respectively.

Proposal to establish harmonised methods for determining in-vehicle battery durability performance of heavy duty pure electric vehicles and heavy duty off-vehicle charging hybrid electric vehicles. The GTR introduces a State of Certified Energy monitor to track battery health over time, defines minimum performance requirements as optional provisions by contracting parties, and specifies in-use verification procedures in two parts: Part A verifies monitor accuracy through measurement of usable battery energy using four alternative test methods, and Part B verifies battery durability against minimum performance requirements through remote data collection from vehicle samples. Virtual distance calculations account for energy used in vehicle-to-grid, power take-off, and non-traction applications.

Proposal to establish a harmonized method for determining system power ratings of hybrid electric vehicles and pure electric vehicles with multiple propulsion energy converters. The GTR specifies two test procedures (TP1 and TP2) to measure power at defined reference points analogous to conventional engine output shafts. TP1 measures electrical power and estimated ICE power; TP2 measures torque and speed at axles or wheel hubs. The procedure identifies reference points based on powertrain architecture, requires manufacturers to provide verifiable K factors for energy conversion efficiency, specifies measurement accuracy requirements, and includes validation criteria. The GTR applies to vehicles in categories M₁–M₂ and N₁–N₂ with maximum laden mass not exceeding 3,500 kg, excluding fuel cell vehicles.

Proposal to establish minimum performance requirements for in-vehicle battery durability of pure electric vehicles and off-vehicle charging hybrid electric vehicles, requiring manufacturers to install State-of-Certified Energy and State-of-Certified Range monitors, set minimum allowable SOCE values of 80% for categories 1-1 and 1-2 vehicles and 75% for category 2 vehicles at 5 years or 100,000 km (whichever comes first) and 70% and 65% respectively at 8 years or 160,000 km, implement a two-part in-use verification process to verify monitor accuracy and battery durability through statistical methods and remote data collection, allow manufacturers to declare higher performance requirements, and include verification of reported virtual distance for vehicles with V2X functionality or non-traction purposes.
