Suggestions to APEC-VSHG(1/4)

Backgrounds

Promoting introduction of ECE Regulations, but lack of direct communication channel between WP29 and APEC

Lack of sufficient manpower and budget for attending the WP29 and then understanding information on the development background for individual ECE Regulation

Potential trade obstacle with superficial harmonization due to insufficient understanding of ECE Regulation

Unreliable harmonization due to each economy’s individual explanation on Regulation and then wrong designation of Type (Vehicle, Unit and System) and mis- representative test specimen (Vehicle, Unit and System)

Chinese Taipei, 33rd APEC TPT-WG Meeting 2010 55

Backgrounds

More reliable with the growing harmonization on real Practice (Test/COP/Certification), instead of just using the contents of ECE Regulation

Lack of practical application (Test/COP/Certification), inducing incomplete reason for attending VSHG among economies

Example: ESC/VSF (Electronic Stability Control/VSF)How to define representative test specimenHow to practically verify VSFWhether Other variants/versions should be checked

either by the simulation tool or physical test

Forum

Organizing In-depth communication on specific issue or Regulation

Making Harmonization Realistic and Transparent Issue Example: ESC/VSF (Electronic Stability Control/VSF)

How’s this currently going in Europe and USWhat difficulties are encountered by Europe and USHow to avoid same worry about this harmonizationHow to define representative test specimenHow to practically verify VSFWhether Other variants/versions should be checked either
