WHAT IS AUTOMOTIVE HOMOLOGATION?

Homologation of the vehicle is the responsibility of the manufacturer to make sure that manufactured vehicle meets official standards for destination countries. In simpler terms, it means the manufacturer can start the sales when the manufactured vehicle has passed all mandatory tests and standards.

The EU directive enables manufacturers to have different vehicle types approved, such as:
  • Passenger vehicles
  • Commercial vehicles
  • Motorcycles
  • Trailers
  • Agricultural vehicles, etc.

Furthermore, the EU directive allows manufacturers to get homologation approval in one member state and market the same vehicle in other member states, without additional requests for any further tests.

Vehicles are usually tested for four main group standards:

  • Passive safety, including crash tests, child restraints and seat belts testing
  • Active safety such as Brake and Steering systems
  • Components & Systems, including tests of Glass, Wipers, lighting, horn, mirrors, tires, tank, rear view system and warning triangle
  • Environment regulations, including testing for fuel consumption, EMC, Noise and Air emissions
