EC position that VIAQ should follow ISO 12219-1 and focus testing on vehicles one month after production and with less than 50 km travel.

OICA supports transposing ISO 12219‐1 as a UN regulation.

Table prepared by the VIAQ group as the basis for harmonization.

Review of pros and cons for testing in ambient, parking, and driving modes.

Table prepared by the VIAQ informal group during its first session.

Proposals for VIAQ work, including discussion of ambient (new car) and driving (in-use) modes and of the various standards on interior air quality around the world.

Revised version based on document GRPE-70-19.

OICA proposal to emphasize a focus on building from existing industry measurement techniques and other standards as well as to clarify the subject of the group on vehicle “interior” rather than “indoor” air quality.

Proposal for an informal expert group to exchange information and develop recommendations concerning vehicle interior air quality as it relates to emissions of volatile organic compounds or aldehydes from materials used in vehicle interior which are harmful to humans. The proposal envisions the development of test procedures to measure such emissions for incorporation as recommendations within the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (RE3 under the 1958 Agreement), Special Resolution 1 (SR1 under the 1998 Agreement), or as a new Mutual Resolution (covering both agreements).
