Status report on the 1998 Agreement global registry and compendium of candidates as of 13 November 2026. The document presents the current state of play for multiple UN GTRs across working parties GRVA, GRSP, GRPE, GRBP, and GRSG, including informal groups, technical sponsors, formal proposals, and draft UN GTR proposals. It details progress on items such as Automated Driving Systems, Electric Vehicle Safety, Equitable Occupant Protection, and various amendments to existing GTRs, with notes on AC.3 endorsements and adoption dates.

Status report on the EV Fast & Smart Charging cluster’s progress on two main activities: developing the Fast Charge Power Curve (FCPC), a resolution for a test procedure and KPIs, with eight open points requiring validation and verification; and developing a global roadmap on smart and bidirectional charging, which is finalised and to be published as a UN publication in Q1 2027. The cluster’s mandate has been extended for one year to October 2027 to continue validations, resolve open points, and investigate future work including review clauses and a fast charging performance test for heavy-duty vehicles.

The report describes the final status of Amendment 2 to UN GTR No. 24 covering laboratory measurement of brake emissions, including hardware requirements (brake dynamometer, enclosure design, fixtures, temperature measurement, sampling tunnel and plane), the WLTP Brake cycle test procedure with quality checks and temperature specifications, cooling air conditioning specifications, cooling adjustment section procedures for different brake categories, bedding and emissions measurement sections, and PM mass concentration measurement methodology validated through an Inter-laboratory Study across multiple testing facilities.
