“Starter presentation” to launch discussions and work on evaporative emissions under Phase 2 of the GTR development.

Proposal from Japan to clarify the specific objectives and intentions behind the list of supplemental test procedures developed for Phase 2 of GTR No. 15.

Project plan for the development of additional light-vehicle emissions test procedures for presentation to GRPE in January 2019. Phase 2 is expected to address test cycles (gear shift, normalization, and driving index), evaporative emissions, OBD, durability, and in-use compliance as well as supplemental tests for high altitude, severe cold, mobile air-conditioning, idling and crankcase emissions, and “eco-innovation”.

Proposed Phase 2 organisation including structure for leading team and taskforces.

Consolidated proposal for the phase 1b amendments to GTR No. 15 including the changes presented in document WLTP-13-05 (marked up for easy reference).

Draft informal document for eventual submission to the 72nd GRPE session (January 2016) containing final touches to the formal proposal (GRPE/2016/3) for the phase 1b amendments to the GTR on light vehicle emissions.

Summary of open issues, including items identified following the 12th WLTP informal group session, to be resolved towards finalizing the first phase development of the GTR on light vehicle emissions.

Discussion paper concerning the transposition of GTR 15 into a UN Regulation. The paper raises two possible routes: 1) a UN Regulation identical to EU legislation but that would not be not applied (in its entirety as a distinct rule) outside the EU; 2) a “hierarchical” UN Regulation that combines all elements of all emissions thresholds at their most stringent level with lower levels of approval corresponding to regional/national requirements. The EC proposes option 2 as this would allow for a global rule where Contracting Parties could certify systems to standards outside their markets (e.g., Japan could issue approvals to EU standards and vice versa) under the UN Regulation.

“Phase 1b” amendment proposal highlighting the changes to the regulation.

Proposal of amendments from the WLTP informal working group to finalize the initial Phase 1 version of GTR No. 15.

Presentation on results from the use of the WLTP Phase 1a test protocols across various Contracting Parties in Asia.
