THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 661/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 July 2009 concerning type-approval requirements for the general safety of motor vehicles, their trailers and systems, components and separate technical units intended therefor(1) and in particular Article 14(1)(a) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Regulation (EC) No 661/2009 requires the installation of gear shift indicators (GSI) on all vehicles, which are fitted with a manual gearbox, of category M1 with a reference mass not exceeding 2 610 kg and vehicles to which type-approval is extended in accordance with Article 2(2) of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 June 2007 on type-approval of motor vehicles with respect to emissions from light passenger and commercial vehicles (Euro 5 and Euro 6) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information(2).

(2) Regulation (EC) No 661/2009 requires the technical details of its provisions on GSI to be defined by implementing legislation. It is now necessary to set out the specific procedures, tests and requirements for such type-approval of GSI.

(3) Directive 2007/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 September 2007 establishing a framework for the approval of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles (Framework Directive)(3) should therefore be amended accordingly.

(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Technical Committee — Motor Vehicles,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1Scope

This Regulation applies to vehicles of category M1 which comply with the following requirements:

  • they are fitted with a manual gearbox,

  • they have a reference mass not exceeding 2 610 kg or type-approval is extended to them in accordance with Article 2(2) of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007.

This Regulation does not apply to ‘vehicles designed to fulfil specific social needs’ as defined in Article 3(2)(c) of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007.

Article 2Definitions

For the purposes of this Regulation, the following definitions shall apply in addition to the definitions set out in Regulation (EC) No 661/2009:

(1)

‘vehicle type with regard to the GSI’ means a group of vehicles, which do not differ with respect to functional characteristics of the GSI and the logic used by the GSI to determine when to indicate a gearshift point. Examples of different logics include, but are not limited to:

(i)

upshifts indicated at specified engine speeds;

(ii)

upshifts indicated when specific fuel consumption engine maps show that a specified minimum fuel consumption improvement will be delivered in the higher gear;

(iii)

upshifts indicated when torque demand can be met in the higher gear;

(2)

‘functional characteristics of the GSI’ means the set of input parameters, such as engine speed, power demand, torque and their variation in time, determining the GSI indication and the functional dependence of the GSI indications on these parameters;

(3)

‘operational mode of the vehicle’ means a state of the vehicle, in which shifts between at least two forward gears may occur;

(4)

‘manual mode’ means an operational mode of the vehicle, where the shift between all or some of the gears is always an immediate consequence of an action of the driver;

(5)

‘tailpipe emissions’ means tailpipe emissions as defined in Article 3(6) of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007.

Article 3Assessment of manual gearbox

For the purpose of assessing whether a gearbox meets the definition according to Article 3(16) of Regulation (EC) No 661/2009, a gearbox having at least one manual mode according to Article 2(4) of this Regulation shall be considered as a ‘manual gearbox’. For this assessment, automatic changes between gears, which are performed not to optimise the operation of the vehicle but only under extreme conditions for reasons such as protecting or avoiding the stalling of the engine, are not considered.

Article 4EC type-approval

ANNEX I SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH GEAR SHIFT INDICATORS (GSI)

1. Characteristic of the GSI appearance

1.1.The shift recommendation shall be provided by means of a distinct visual indication, for example a clear indication to shift up or up/down or a symbol that identifies the gear into which the driver should shift. The visible indication may be complemented by other indications, including audible ones, provided that these do not compromise safety.

1.2.The GSI must not interfere with or mask the identification of any tell-tale, control or indicator, which is mandated or supports the safe operation of the vehicle. Notwithstanding point 1.3, the signal shall be designed so that it does not distract the driver’s attention and to avoid interfering with proper and safe vehicle operation.

1.3.The GSI shall be located in compliance with paragraph 5.1.2 of UNECE Regulation No 121. It shall be designed such that it can not be confused with any other tell-tale, control or indicator the vehicle is equipped with.

1.4.An information display device may be used to display GSI indications provided that they are sufficiently different from other indications so as to be clearly visible and identifiable by the driver.

1.5.Temporarily, the GSI indication may be automatically overridden or deactivated in exceptional situations. Such circumstances are those that may compromise the safe operation or integrity of the vehicle, including activation of traction or stability control systems, temporary displays from driver assistance systems or events relating to vehicle malfunctioning. The GSI shall resume normal operation after the exceptional situations ceased to exist, and within a delay of 10 seconds or longer, if justified by specific technical or behavioural reasons.

2. Functional requirements for GSI (applicable to all manual modes)

2.1.The GSI shall suggest changing the gear when the fuel consumption with the suggested gear is estimated to be lower than the current one giving consideration to the requirements laid down in points 2.2 and 2.3.

2.2.The GSI shall be designed to encourage an optimised fuel efficient driving style under reasonably foreseeable driving conditions. Its main purpose is to minimise the fuel consumption of the vehicle when the driver follows its indications. However, regulated tailpipe emissions shall not be disproportionately increased with respect to the initial state when following the indication of the GSI. In addition, following the GSI strategy should not have any negative effect on the timely functioning of pollution control devices, such as catalysts, after a cold start. For this purpose vehicle manufacturers should provide technical documentation to the type-approval authority, which describes the impact of the GSI strategy on the vehicle’s regulated tailpipe emissions, under at least steady vehicle speed.

2.3.Following the indication of the GSI must not compromise the safe operation of the vehicle, e.g. to prevent stalling of the engine, insufficient engine braking or insufficient engine torque in the case of high power demand.

3. Information to be provided

3.1.The manufacturer shall provide the following information to the type-approval authority. The information shall be made available in the following two parts:

(a)

the ‘formal documentation package’ that may be made available to interested parties upon request;

(b)

the ‘extended documentation package’ that shall remain strictly confidential.

3.1.1.The formal documentation package shall contain:
(a)

a description of the complete set of appearances of the GSIs which are fitted on vehicles being part of the vehicle type with regard to GSI, and evidence of their compliance with the requirements of point 1;

(b)

evidence in the form of data or engineering evaluations, for example modelling data, emission or fuel consumption maps, emission tests, which adequately demonstrate that the GSI is effective in providing timely and meaningful shift recommendations to the driver in order to comply with the requirements of point 2;

(c)

an explanation of the purpose, use and functions of the GSI in a ‘GSI section’ of the user manual accompanying the vehicle.

3.1.2.The extended documentation package shall contain the design strategy of the GSI, in particular its functional characteristics.
3.1.3.Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 5, the extended documentation package shall remain strictly confidential between the type-approval authority and the manufacturer. It may be kept by the type-approval authority, or, at the discretion of the type-approval authority, may be retained by the manufacturer. In the case the manufacturer retains the documentation package, that package shall be identified and dated by the type-approval authority once reviewed and approved. It shall be made available for inspection by the approval authority at the time of approval or at any time during the validity of the approval.

3.2.The manufacturer shall provide an explanation of the purpose, use and functions of the GSI in a ‘GSI section’ of the user manual accompanying the vehicle.

4. The fuel economy impact of GSI recommended gear shift points shall be determined according to the following procedure:

4.1. Determination of vehicle speeds at which GSI recommends shifting up gears

This test is to be performed on a warmed up vehicle on a chassis dynamometer according to the speed profile described in Appendix 1 to this Annex. The advice of the GSI is followed for shifting up gears and the vehicle speeds, for which the GSI recommends shifting, are recorded. The test is repeated 3 times.

Vn GSI shall denote the average speed at which the GSI recommends shifting up from gear n (n = 1, 2, …, #g) into gear n + 1, determined from the 3 tests, where #g shall denote the vehicle’s number of forward gears. For this purpose only GSI shift instructions in the phase before the maximum speed is reached are taken into account and any GSI instruction during the deceleration is ignored.

For the purposes of the following calculations V0 GSI is set to 0 km/h and V#g GSI is set to 140 km/h or the maximum vehicle speed, whichever is smaller. Where the vehicle cannot attain 140 km/h, the vehicle shall be driven at its maximum speed until it rejoins the speed profile in Figure I.1.

Alternatively, the recommended GSI shift speeds may be analytically determined by the manufacturer based on the GSI algorithm contained in the extended documentation package provided according to point 3.1.

4.2. Standard gear shift points

Vn std shall denote the speed at which a typical driver is assumed to shift up from gear n into gear n + 1 without GSI recommendation. Based on the gear shift points defined in the type 1 emission test(4) the following standard gear shift speeds are defined:

V0 std

=

0 km/h;

V1 std

=

15 km/h;

V2 std

=

35 km/h;

V3 std

=

50 km/h;

V4 std

=

70 km/h;

V5 std

=

90 km/h;

V6 std

=

110 km/h;

V7 std

=

130 km/h;

V8 std

=

V#g GSI;

Vn min shall denote the minimum vehicle speed the vehicle can be driven in the gear n without stalling of the engine and Vn max the maximum vehicle speed the vehicle can be driven in the gear n without creating damage to the engine.

If Vn std derived from this list is smaller than Vn + 1 min, then Vn std is set to be Vn + 1 min. If Vn std derived from this list is greater than Vn max, then Vn std is set to be Vn max (n = 1, 2, …, #g – 1).

If V#g std determined by this procedure is smaller than V#g GSI, it shall be set to V#g GSI.

4.3. Fuel consumption speed curves

The manufacturer shall supply the type-approval authority with the functional dependence of the vehicle’s fuel consumption on the steady vehicle speed when driving with gear n according to the following rules.

FCn i shall denote the fuel consumption in terms of kg/h (kilograms per hour) when the vehicle is driven with the constant vehicle speed vi = i × 5 km/h – 2,5 km/h (where i is a positive integer number) in the gear n. These data shall be provided by the manufacturer for each gear n (n = 1, 2, …, #g) and vn min ≤ vi ≤ vn max. These fuel consumption values shall be determined under identical ambient conditions corresponding to a realistic driving situation that may be defined by the vehicle manufacturer, either by a physical test or by an appropriate calculation model agreed between the approval authority and the manufacturer.

4.4. Vehicle speed distribution

The following distribution should be used for the probability Pi that the vehicle drives with a speed v, where vi – 2,5 km/h < v ≤ vi + 2,5 km/h (i = 1, …, 28):

iPi

Where the maximum speed of the vehicle corresponds to step i and i < 28, the values of Pi + 1 to P28 shall be added to Pi.

4.5. Determination of the model fuel consumption

FCGSI shall denote the fuel consumption of the vehicle when the driver follows the advice of the GSI:

FCGSI i = FCn i, where Vn – 1 GSI ≤ vi < Vn GSI (for n = 1, …, #g) and FCGSI i = 0 if vi ≥ V#g GSI

FCstd shall denote the fuel consumption of the vehicle when standard gear shift points are used:

FCstd i = FCn i, where Vn – 1 std ≤ vi < Vn std (for n = 1, …, #g) and FCstd i = 0 if vi ≥ V#g GSI

The relative saving of fuel consumption by following the advice of the GSI of the model is calculated as:

FCrel. Save = (1 – FCGSI/FCstd) × 100 %

4.6. Data records

The following information shall be recorded:

  • the values of Vn GSI as determined according to point 4.1,

  • the values FCn i of the fuel consumption speed curve as communicated by the manufacturer according to point 4.3,

  • the values FCGSI, FCstd and FCrel. Save as calculated according to point 4.5.
