1. Manufacturers may designate vehicles as ‘Euro 7G’ vehicles where those vehicles are equipped with internal combustion engines with geofencing technologies. The manufacturer shall install on those vehicles a driver warning system to inform the user when the traction batteries are nearly empty and to stop the vehicle if not charged within 5 kilometres from the first warning while on zero-emission mode inside the geofencing area. The application of such geofencing technologies shall be demonstrated to the approval authority during type- approval and verified during the lifetime of the vehicle.
2. At the request of the manufacturer, for vehicles of category N2 between 3,5 and 5 tonnes maximum mass originating from a type of vehicle of category N1, the approval authority may grant an emission type-approval if the vehicle meets the requirements for a type of vehicle of category N1. Such vehicles shall be designated as ‘Euro 7ext’ vehicles.
3. Manufacturers may construct vehicles combining the characteristics referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 and designate them as ‘Euro 7Gext’ vehicles.
