Report on the 95th GRPE session presenting progress updates for UN GTR No. 21 (Determination of Electrified Vehicle Power), UN GTR No. 22 (In-vehicle Battery Durability for Electrified Light-Duty Vehicles), and UN GTR No. 25 (In-vehicle Battery Durability for Electrified Heavy-Duty Vehicles). The IWG on EVE reported on Phase 4 objectives and amendments for GTR 21 and 22, with consideration targets of March 2028, and Phase 3 amendments for GTR 25 with consideration target of March 2027. Future work includes investigations into charging power curves, development of a new WP.29 resolution on DC Fast Charge Power Curve performance, and an inventory on harmonization of recharging capabilities.

Status update on Euro 7 implementation for light-duty and heavy-duty vehicles. For LDV (M₁, N₁), application begins 30 months after Euro 7 entry into force for new types (29 November 2026) and 42 months for all new vehicles (29 November 2027). For HDV (M₂, M₃, N₂, N₃, O₃, O₄), application begins 48 months after entry into force for new types (29 May 2028) and 60 months for all new vehicles (29 May 2029). Small Volume Manufacturers comply from 1 July 2030 (M₁, N₁) and 1 July 2031 (M₂, M₃, N₂, N₃). Brake emissions apply 1 January 2030 for LDV and 1 January 2030–1 January 2035 for HDV. Tyre abrasion (UN R186) applies 1 July 2028 for C1 class tyres, 1 April 2030 for C2 class, and 1 April 2032 for C3 class.

Document presents technical challenges to defining retrofit kit types for electric conversion and approval processes. Identifies that retrofit kit type perimeter depends on the regulation considered, with different requirements across UN R10, R13, R100, R85, R138, WLTP, R79, R39, R51, R89, R121, and R122. Presents testing challenges at vehicle, component, and EPRS levels, noting that testing a kit type not installed on a vehicle is impossible to account for all impacts on the vehicle.

Session report of WP.29 (World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations), its Administrative Committee of the 1958 Agreement (AC.1), Executive Committee of the 1998 Agreement (AC.3), and Administrative Committee of the 1997 Agreement (AC.4) held 23-26 June 2026 in Geneva. AC.1 voted on 92 amendments to existing UN Regulations, one corrigendum to UN Regulation No. 79, and three new UN Regulations (Nos. 184-186) on liquid hydrogen vehicle safety, automated driving systems, and tyre abrasion performance. AC.3 established UN GTR on automated driving systems and adopted corrigendum to UN GTR No. 9 and Amendment 2 to UN GTR No. 13. WP.29 extended mandates of several informal working groups and noted accession of Mongolia and Armenia to the 1958 and 1997 Agreements respectively.

Proposal to amend para. 1.1., Footnote 1 to update the reference to the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3.) document ECE/TRANS/WP.29/78/Rev.8, para. 2, and amend para. 4.5.1., Footnote 2 to update the reference to Annex 3 of the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3), document ECE/TRANS/WP.29/78/Rev.8.

Proposal to enable the approval of vehicles equipped with an Automated Driving System under this Regulation.
