Proposal to reintroduce text that was unintentionally omitted in document GRPE/2025/12 as adopted by GRPE during its 92nd session.

Proposal to introduce in-service conformity requirements for system power.

Proposal to remove the provisions relating to manipulation devices and manipulation strategies that are being moved to UN R154 and clarify that in-service conformity checks for electric range of pure electric vehicles at low temperatures are optional.

Proposal to introduce provisions relating to

• Manipulation Devices and Strategies that were previously in the 09 series of amendments to UN R83,
• the levels to which certain provisions apply,
• clarifications and corrections to the requirements for the laboratory test for pure electric range ratio at low temperature for Pure Electric Vehicles
• an update to allow the use in Levels 1A and 2 of actual tyre rolling resistance values to calculate the final road load coefficient for the individual vehicles, and
• align the Regulation with the current regional status and the current state-of-the-art.

Proposal to clarify that the parking brake may be actuated while the vehicle is in motion via actuation of the vehicle’s service braking system by means of an auxiliary control which could be an Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) and to promote consistent interpretation of the activation conditions for an Emergency Stop Signal (ESS), including by application of the service braking system via the EPB control.

Proposal to require the approval authority to upload information received from the manufacturer concerning remedial action(s) addressing an ALKS design to the DETA platform and to clarify the use of DETA with regard to ALKS approved under UN R157.

Proposal to clarify the EDR trigger input in the case of vehicles approved to UN R169 (M₂, M₃, N₂, N₃) equipped with airbags (Supplemental Restraint Systems).

Proposal to align UN R43 with a proposed amendment to UN R125 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2026/23), which resolves a longstanding inconsistency between the lower datum point definition (§5.1.1.3) and the obstruction requirement (§5.1.3) by harmonizing the lower datum point angle from 5° to 4°.

Proposal to resolve a longstanding inconsistency in UN R125 between the lower datum point (§5.1.1.3, set at 5°) and the obstruction requirement (§5.1.3, set at 4°), by aligning the lower datum point to 4° while retaining upper and lateral aspects of §5.1.1. unchanged. The 5° datum point has never been used for any technical requirements beyond serving as a reference point, while the 4° obstruction requirement has prior precedent. As this is a vehicle rather than component requirement, the datum point is also proposed for deletion from UN R43, retaining it solely in UN R125.

Proposal to amend UN R167 to address Automated Driving Systems (ADS), exempting category Y vehicles and category X vehicles without a manual on-board mode from the regulation’s scope, while requiring ADS-equipped vehicles to comply when operated manually. Additional amendments update references to the three-dimensional H-point machine per Mutual Resolution No. 1, and revise approval marking provisions to remove the Unique Identifier option.

Proposal to supersede document GRBP/2026/4 intended to introduce a “default mode”, to specify requirements to be applied to the emission of Enhanced Exterior Sound (EES), with corresponding transitional provisions, and to draw a limit curve to introduce electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles that can be propelled without an internal combustion engine operating in the scope of ASEP (Annex 7).

Proposal to clarify manufacturer logo requirements across several paragraphs: confirming that non-illuminated graphic marks are not considered logos (para. 2.1.7.); permitting vehicle manufacturers to keep the inner portion of a front position lamp active when an AFS headlamp substitutes the outer portion (para. 5.12.1.4.); improving logo language for Light Signalling Devices approved to UN R148 (para. 5.30.1.); and clarifying that Road Illumination Devices approved to UN R149 shall not include a manufacturer logo (para. 5.30.2.).

Proposal to correct several outdated references following structural changes to UN R154 (04 series of amendments), including updated appendix numbering in paragraphs 2.47, 2.48, and Annex 5, removal of “worst case certified energy consumption Part B family” from Table 4 reporting requirements, and correction of the vehicle survey reference to reflect its relocation to the 9 Series of amendments to UN R83.

Proposal to improve FTIR/QCL Analyser Examination (Para. 9.3.2.8.1, 9.3.2.9.1, 9.3.2.10, Appendices 10–11), including expanding the examination authority to include type-approval authorities and technical services, requiring witnessing of the testing at the instrument manufacturer’s facility, and introducing new appendices providing an examiner template and a verification certificate format, and to permit other techniques for the water quench check (Para. 9.3.2.9.9) to address the adverse effects of H₂O and CO₂ on the CLD’s NOx response and align with the provisions of 40 CFR 1065.750(e)(5).

Proposal to clarify the selection of the wheel load among vehicles with identical brake assemblies for particle emissions testing.

Proposal to improve measurement consistency between laboratories and clarify setup conditions.

Flicker measurement: a) reduction of observation time and suppressing Plt limit, b) adapting ESA limit specification aligning with the vehicle requirement, c) suppression of manual switching test, d) Improving measurement consistency between laboratories and clarify test conditions.

Proposal to delete two paragraphs relating to “Operating Mode Switch” that were overlooked when that concept was removed from Regulation No. 83, from both the manufacturer’s information document (Annex 1) and the approval certificate addendum (Annex 2). The same documentation requirements were removed from the 08 series of amendments (during GREP-93), differing only in paragraph numbering.

Proposal to clarify Annex 3, table A3/1 regarding minimum type-approval requirements for Euro 6e, Euro 6e-bis, and Euro 6e-bis-FCM under UN R83 by specifying the relevant series of amendments for UN R24, R85, and R168, which were omitted when the 08 Series was created as no new amendments were anticipated at the time. A minor editorial correction is also included.
