The document outlines work priorities for UN GTR 21, 22, and 25 amendments. UN R21 Phase 4 will address fuel-cell electric vehicles, measurement alternatives for integrated systems, test method efficiency, and alignment with UN R177. UN R22 Phase 4 will explore conditioning cycles, readiness monitors, certified range performance requirements, and alignment with UN R154-04 and UN R83-09. UN R25 Phase 3 will consider Annex 2 amendments, virtual distance verification, minimum performance requirement thresholds by vehicle category, and alternative test methods.

UN GTR No. 21 Phase 4 will consider fuel-cell electric vehicles, measurement alternatives for highly integrated systems, modifications for more efficient test methods, and alignment with UN Regulation No. 177 based on inputs EVE-87-08e, EVE-87-09e, EVE-87-11e, EVE-88-12, EVE-85-06e, and EVE-74-10e. UN GTR No. 22 Phase 4 will explore conditioning cycles and readiness monitors for official testing, investigate minimum performance requirements for certified range, and consider establishing minimum performance requirement values for additional lifetime of ten years and 200,000 km, drawing on input EVE-96-06e. UN GTR No. 25 Phase 3 will amend Annex 2 provisions, verify reported virtual distance, reconsider minimum performance requirements regarding mileage and lifetime thresholds, and consider energy throughput as a threshold.
