UN R39 allows for odometer units in miles. This proposal would clarify requirements for systems that can switch the odometer units between kilometers and miles to ensure that only one unit of measurement for total distance is used at a time.

80. The expert from France introduced the proposal for an amendment to UN Regulation No. 39 (GRSP-119-12) on speedometer and odometer. GRSG considered the proposal and recommended its further development based on discussions among experts, requesting the secretariat to submit a revised version of the proposal as an official document for consideration at the April 2021 session of GRSG.

Proposal to allow for the approval of speedometers and odometers that enable drivers to display figures either in km/h or mph (but not both simultaneously). The proposal also clarifies the application of the provisions across the category L vehicle subcategories.

The 01 series of amendments inserted a new paragraph 5.1 and renumbered the subsequent paragraphs. This proposal corrects an oversight by updating a reference to paragraph 5.3 to 5.4 in the footnote under paragraph 2.5.

12. The expert from EC introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2016/25 proposing to adapt the requirements of the Regulation to technical progress and to clarify the specifications for numeric displays of speedometers. The expert from OICA introduced GRSG-111-10 aimed at correcting a reference in footnote ² to paragraph 2.5. of the Regulation.

13. GRSG adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2016/25 as amended below and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2017 sessions, as draft Supplement 1 to the 01 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 39.

Paragraph 2.5., footnote ², correct the reference to paragraph 5.3. to read 5.4.

Presentation on cybersecurity issues and ISO 26262 (functional safety of electronic systems).

9. Recalling the purpose of ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2015/16 presented at the previous session of GRSG, the expert from FIA reiterated his position on the need to protect odometer equipment against mileage fraud and, therefore, to place the subject in a broader context. He introduced GRSG-110-17 on the current status of the discussion on cybersecurity in the subgroup Autonomous Driving of the WP.29 informal working group on Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS-AD). He proposed to further discuss with OICA experts the security and functional safety specifications of ISO standards 26262 and 15408 on cybersecurity, data protection and remote access to in-vehicle data. The expert from OICA announced his intention to coordinate, in the near future, a common position from his stakeholder and volunteered to report back to GRSG at the forthcoming session.

10. The GRSG Chair suggested resuming consideration of this subject at the next session of GRSG and invited the expert from FIA to get in contact with OICA.
