    COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2023/2399

    of 6 October 2023

    correcting Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/1362 as regards certain errors concerning the computational fluid dynamics simulation

    (Text with EEA relevance)

    THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

    Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 June 2009 on type-approval of motor vehicles and engines with respect to emissions from heavy duty vehicles (Euro VI) and amending Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 and Directive 2007/46/EC and repealing Directives 80/1269/EEC, 2005/55/EC and 2005/78/EC (1), and in particular Article 5c, first paragraph, point (a), thereof,

    Whereas:

    (1)

    Annex V to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/1362 (2) in point 3.2., Table 2 and Table 3 contains certain errors. A requirement was missing and the reference ranges referred to the absolute CD values. Those errors concern the procedure for the computational fluid dynamics simulation used for the certification of aerodynamic devices.

    (2)

    Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/1362 should therefore be corrected to ensure that the aerodynamic devices are certified in the same way and applied equally by all manufacturers.

    (3)

    This Regulation should thus apply as from the date of entry into force of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/1362, and it should enter into force immediately.

    (4)

    The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Technical Committee – Motor Vehicles (TCMV) referred to in Article 83 of Regulation (EU) 2018/858 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3),

    HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

    Article 1

    Annex V to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/1362 is corrected in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.

    Article 2

    This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

    It shall apply from 25 August 2022.

    This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

    Done at Brussels, 6 October 2023.

    For the Commission

    The President

    Ursula VON DER LEYEN

    (1)   OJ L 188, 18.7.2009, p. 1.

    (2)  Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/1362 of 1 August 2022 implementing Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the performance of heavy-duty trailers with regard to their influence on the CO2 emissions, fuel consumption, energy consumption and zero emission driving range of motor vehicles and amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/683 (OJ L 205, 5.8.2022, p. 145).

    (3)  Regulation (EU) 2018/858 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 May 2018 on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles, amending Regulations (EC) No 715/2007 and (EC) No 595/2009 and repealing Directive 2007/46/EC (OJ L 151, 14.6.2018, p. 1).

    ANNEX

    In Annex V to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/1362, point 3.2. is corrected as follows:

    (1)

    in Table 2, the following row is added:

    ‘Ground surface and wheels

    25,00  m/s

    The ground surface of the simulation domain has to move backwards relative to the vehicle and the wheels of the vehicles have to rotate with the corresponding tangential velocity.’

    (2)

    Table 3 is replaced by the following:

    ‘Table 3

    Reference ranges for the validation process

    Simulation set

    Yaw Angle – β [deg]
