🇬🇧 English

This corrigendum fixes technical errors in EU rules for exhaust and evaporative emission type-approval of M1 and N1 vehicles, mainly passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. It corrects the formatting of deterioration factor values for positive-ignition engines and adds a missing footnote on when UN Regulation No 155 applies. The practical impact is narrow. Vehicle manufacturers, approval authorities, and compliance teams should use the corrected values and note the small-series exception when preparing or reviewing type-approval documentation.
