Draft agenda for the 77th EPPR Informal Working Group Meeting on Environmental and Propulsion Performance Requirements of L-category vehicles, scheduled for 24 November 2026, online. The agenda includes adoption of the previous meeting’s report, discussion of transposition of UN-GTR 2 into UN-Regulation 40 with updates from a dedicated Task Force, and information exchange on possible future activities including maximum power determination, battery electric vehicle range determination standardization, and deterioration factors in GTR 23 on durability.

Draft report of the 76th EPPR meeting held on 13 October 2026. The agenda and minutes of the 75th meeting were adopted. The Task Force on transposition of UN-GTR 2 into UN-R40 presented its progress report from its first meeting on 9 October, agreeing to use IMMA’s June 2026 draft as the basis for developing the 03 series of amendments to UN-R40 corresponding to Euro 4 level. The group exchanged information on maximum power determination, battery electric vehicle range determination standardization, and deterioration factors in GTR 23 on durability. Germany presented observations on periodic emissions testing for Euro 5+ motorcycles regarding OBD port access and lambda measurement difficulties.

Draft agenda for the 76th EPPR Informal Working Group Meeting on Environmental and Propulsion Performance Requirements of L-category vehicles, scheduled for 13 October 2026. The agenda covers adoption of the previous meeting’s report, transposition of UN-GTR 2 into UN Regulation 40 with feedback from multiple countries, information exchange on maximum power determination for two-wheelers, battery electric vehicle range determination standardization, deterioration factors in GTR 23, and other business items.

Draft report of the 75th meeting of the EPPR informal working group on environmental and propulsion performance requirements of L-category vehicles. The group adopted the previous meeting’s report and agenda. A Task Force was established to continue the transposition of UN-GTR 2 into UN-Regulation 40, with the first meeting scheduled for 9 October 2026. The group exchanged information on maximum power determination for two-wheelers, battery electric vehicle range determination standardization using SAE J2982 and Chinese standard GB/T 24157-2017, and deterioration factors in GTR 23 on durability. Subsequent EPPR meetings and Task Force sessions are scheduled through June 2027.

The 74th EPPR Informal Working Group Meeting on Environmental and Propulsion Performance Requirements of L-category vehicles was held on 8 July 2026. Discussion focused on transposing UN-GTR No. 2 into UN Regulation 40, with the group agreeing to establish a Task Force for Euro 4 transposition and setting 21 August as the deadline for supplementary questionnaire information and Task Force feedback. The group continued information exchange on maximum power determination, battery electric vehicle range standardization using SAE J2982 procedures, and deterioration factors in GTR 23 on durability, with no new updates or conclusions reached on next steps for these agenda items.

The agenda includes adoption of EPPR-74-01 and EPPR-73-04, transposition of UN-GTR 2 into UN-Regulation 40 across Euro 3, 4, and 5 emission levels using documents GRPE-93-07-Rev.1, GRPE-92-12, GRPE-92-13, GRPE/2025/22, GRPE-93-26, EPPR-73-02, and EPPR-73-03, maximum power determination discussions using EPPR-22-15 through EPPR-59-04, battery electric vehicle range determination standardization using EPPR-53-04 through EPPR-59-03, and deterioration factors in GTR 23 using EPPR-56-04 and EPPR-65-05. Next meetings are scheduled for 7 September 2026 and October 2026 in conjunction with 95/GRPE.

The 73rd EPPR Informal Working Group Meeting on Environmental and Propulsion Performance Requirements of L-category vehicles was held 1 June 2026. The agenda and previous meeting report EPPR-72-03 were adopted without changes. The IWG discussed transposing UN-GTR No. 2 to Euro 3, 4, and 5 emission levels through incremental steps; the new 02 series of amendments to R40 was adopted by March 198/WP.29 (WP.29/2026/24), and IMMA presented a draft 03 series for Euro 4 level. The IWG agreed to identify legislative gaps via questionnaire due 26 June. Information was exchanged on maximum power determination, battery electric vehicle range determination standardization using SAE J2982, and deterioration factors in GTR 23 on durability. The next meetings are scheduled for 8 July 2026, 7 September 2026, and October 2026.

The agenda includes transposition of UN-GTR 2 into UN R40, with discussions on Euro 4 level amendments, maximum power determination for two-wheelers, battery electric vehicle range standardization using SAE J2982 procedures, and deterioration factors in GTR 23.

The 72nd EPPR session (March 2026) adopted the revised agenda and previous meeting report without changes. The 02 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 40, transposing UN-GTR No. 2 to Euro 3 emission level (GRPE/2025/22 as amended by GRPE-93-26), was adopted for submission to WP.29/AC.1 in March 2026 and subsequently adopted by WP.29 at its 198th session. The IWG-EPPR Terms of Reference were extended for two years until 2027. IMMA offered to prepare a draft 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 40 for Euro 4, tentatively expected by early June. The group agreed to reconvene around that time. The group reviewed information exchanges on maximum power determination, battery electric vehicle range determination standardization, and deterioration factors in GTR 23 on durability. Next meetings are scheduled for June, July, and September 2026, with the 76th session in October 2026 coinciding with GRPE.
