Working draft for a series of amendments that would align UN R83 with the Euro 6 approval requirements based on the amending Regulation (EC) No 459/2012 and Regulation (EC) No 630/2012. Proposal to be revised and transformed into a formal submission for the June 2013 GRPE session.

Presentation on the alignment of UN regulations with Euro 6 emissions requirements.

Text from the European Commission to align UN R83 with EU Regulation (EC) Nos. 715/2007, 692/2008, 566/2011, 459/2012 and 630/2012, proposed as a consolidated series of amendments.

Proposal to amend document GRPE/2013/11 by expanding upon the tire selection process to focus on rolling resistance.

Document GRPE/2013/11 presents the EC proposal to integrate Euro 6 provisions into UN R83. This presentation covers the work that went into this proposal and its implications for UN R101 and R103.

Text prepared by the European Commission to align the requirements of Regulation No. 83 with those of European Union Regulation (EC) Nos. 715/2007, 692/2008, 566/2011, 459/2012 and 630/2012. It updates the text of document GRPE/2013/11, including additional definitions on: vehicle power, engine and vehicle characteristics, information concerning the conduct of tests (namely for power and torque), the specifications of new reference fuels (E10 and B7), the type approval communication of test results for bi fuel vehicles, and clarifications on OBD threshold limits.

Corrigendum to the text prepared by the European Commission to align the requirements of Regulation No. 83 with those of European Union Regulation (EC) Nos. 715/2007, 692/2008, 566/2011, 459/2012 and 630/2012.

The aim of the amendment is to clarify the wording of transitional provisions and align them with the General Guidelines for UN Regulatory Procedures and Transitional Provisions in UN Regulations (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1044/Rev.1). In addition, the proposed wording above would allow Contracting Parties to refuse UN type-approvals if the requirements specified in the 07 series of amendments are not met.

European Commission presentation reviewing the issues involved with transposing GTR 15 into EU emissions and fuel consumption regulations and into UN R83 and UN R101. The EC proposes that WP.29 should transpose GTR 15 into a new “WLTP UN Regulation” that would supersede UN R83 and UN R101.

Proposal to correct the unit of the road load coefficient b used in the formula for the calculation of the resistance to progress force.

Proposal to correct the calculation of the resistance to progress force. This proposal was amended during GRPE discussions to cover the 06 and 07 series of amendments to UN R83.

Proposal from the European Commission to provide clarifications and correct errors in the 06 series of amendments to Regulation No. 83.

Proposal from the European Commission to provide clarifications and correct errors in the 07 series of amendments to Regulation No. 83.

Proposal of amendments to:

1. align the definitions for bi-fuel vehicles align with the new definitions in UN GTR 15,
2. amend paragraph 5.3.1.2.4. to recognize that particulate pollutant emissions measurements are no longer limited to compression ignition vehicles,
3. amend paragraph 7.4.4.3. of Annex 7 to correct a typographical error,
4. amend paragraph 3.2.1.of Annex 8 to correct an error originating with UN R83 Revision 3 (2005),
5. amend paragraph 6.5.3.5. to correct a cross-reference error introduced in Amendment 1 (reference should read para. 6.5.3.3. rather than 6.5.3.2.) and should refer to the “annex” rather than the “appendix”.

Updated 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 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.

Revised proposal to amend provisions on Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) warning and inducement systems, including reagent tank capacity and level specifications. This proposal updates the previous document GRPE-76-34 (which updated the formal proposal GRPE/2018/7).

Proposal to correct and clarify provisions of the regulation.

Proposal based on the 07 series of amendments to remove elements which covered by UN R154 (WLTP), to include references to the draft UN Regulation on Real Driving Emissions (RDE), and to update In-Service Conformity (ISC) requirements for the purposes of establishing regional type approval equivalence. The proposal is incomplete. The EC expects to provide missing elements before the 87th GRPE session in January 2023. This document is available with mark-ups in pdf version and in docx format.

Additional information concerning the 08 series of amendments pursuant to UN R154 (WLTP) and work on real-driving emissions testing.

Proposal for a new series to align with Euro 7 requirements, including provisions on manipulation devices and manipulation strategies, anti-tampering, security and cyber security, and extended lifetime and In-Service Conformity requirements for in-vehicle battery durability. The Type 2 test has been removed from this new series. An informal document amending this proposal is under development.

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.
