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:
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.
For the purposes of this Regulation, the following definitions shall apply in addition to the definitions set out in Regulation (EC) No 661/2009:
‘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:
upshifts indicated at specified engine speeds;
upshifts indicated when specific fuel consumption engine maps show that a specified minimum fuel consumption improvement will be delivered in the higher gear;
upshifts indicated when torque demand can be met in the higher gear;
‘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;
‘operational mode of the vehicle’ means a state of the vehicle, in which shifts between at least two forward gears may occur;
‘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;
‘tailpipe emissions’ means tailpipe emissions as defined in Article 3(6) of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007.
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.
1.Manufacturers shall ensure that vehicles placed on the market, which are covered by Article 11 of Regulation (EC) No 661/2009, are equipped with GSI in accordance with the requirements of Annex I to this Regulation.
2.To obtain an EC type-approval for the vehicles covered by Article 11 of Regulation (EC) No 661/2009, the manufacturer shall fulfil the following obligations:
(a)draw up and submit to the type-approval authority an information document in accordance with the model set out in Part 1 of Annex II to this Regulation;
(b)submit to the type-approval authority a declaration laying down that, according to the manufacturer’s assessment, the vehicle complies with the requirements set out in this Regulation;
(c)present to the type-approval authority a certificate established in accordance with the model set out in Part 2 of Annex II to this Regulation;
(d)either
submit to the type-approval authority the GSI gear shift points determined analytically as provided for in the last paragraph of point 4.1 to Annex I; or
submit to the technical service responsible for conducting the type-approval tests a vehicle which is representative of the vehicle type to be approved to enable the test described in point 4 of Annex I to be carried out.
3.Based on the elements provided by the manufacturer under points (a), (b) and (c) of paragraph 2 and the results of the type-approval test referred to in point (d) of paragraph 2, the type-approval authority shall assess compliance with the requirements of Annex I.
It shall issue an EC type-approval certificate according to the model set out in Part 3 of Annex II to this Regulation for the vehicles covered by Article 11 of Regulation (EC) No 661/2009 only if such compliance is established.
For the purpose of monitoring the effects of this Regulation and evaluating the need for further developments, manufacturers and type-approval authorities shall make available to the Commission, upon request, the information set out in Annex II. This information shall be treated in a confidential manner by the Commission and its delegates.
Annexes I, III, IV, VI and XI to Directive 2007/46/EC are amended in accordance with Annex III to this Regulation.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 24 January 2012.
For the Commission
The President
José Manuel Barroso
the ‘formal documentation package’ that may be made available to interested parties upon request;
the ‘extended documentation package’ that shall remain strictly confidential.
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;
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;
an explanation of the purpose, use and functions of the GSI in a ‘GSI section’ of the user manual accompanying the vehicle.
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.
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:
=
0 km/h;
=
15 km/h;
=
35 km/h;
=
50 km/h;
=
70 km/h;
=
90 km/h;
=
110 km/h;
=
130 km/h;
=
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.
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.
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):
i | Pi |

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.
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 %
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.
