Mandatory installation starting this year! It's about vehicle safety!

From 2022 onwards

New cars are forced to install EDR!

Previously

Newly revised by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology

"Technical Conditions for the Safety of Motor Vehicle Operation"

Requirements are from January 2022

Newly produced passenger cars must be equipped with EDR systems

i.e. driving event logger

This device is called the black box of the car

Vehicle operation data before and after the accident can be recorded

future

Tesla brake doors etc. are involved

The "Rashomon" incident of intelligent driving

It is expected to be confirmed by the data of the black box"

Mandatory installation starting this year! It's about vehicle safety!

Technical Conditions for The Safety of Motor Vehicle Operation

National Standard No. 2 Amendment Order

In this regard,

Many car owners have doubts:

What exactly is an EDR device?

Why install EDR?

Let's take a look at it now

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology publishes relevant standards / the website of the Equipment Center of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology

The National Standard No. 2 amendment to the "Technical Conditions for the Safety of Motor Vehicle Operation" stipulates that from January 1 this year, newly produced passenger cars in China should be equipped with "EDR" that meets the requirements. This device, commonly known as the car black box, is triggered when the vehicle collides or the speed changes drastically, and the recording begins. Cao Guangping, an independent researcher of new energy vehicles, introduced:

Cao Guangping: In the accident, the driver's behavior of stepping on the brake pedal, EDR will save the brake signal from how many milliamperes to how many milliamps, including deceleration, finally stop, the whole process will be recorded.

In addition to recording the driver's control data, EDR will also record the status of the vehicle, Lu Wenliang, a special researcher in the automotive industry at the Industrial Science and Technology Innovation Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences Strategic Consulting Institute, introduced:

Lu Wenliang: For example, the speed of the vehicle, the acceleration of the longitudinal and lateral directions, the angle of the steering wheel, the state of the brake throttle, etc., especially when the vehicle with the auxiliary driving function is involved in an accident, EDR can distinguish whether it is the system failure of the vehicle or the human operation error, which helps us to determine the responsibility for the accident.

At present, 99% of new cars listed in the United States are equipped with EDR, and about 10% of new cars in mainland China are equipped. BMW, Mercedes-Benz and other luxury cars, as well as new energy vehicles such as Weilai and BYD, are mostly equipped with EDR, and the average cost is about 1,000 yuan. Cui Dongshu, secretary general of the China Passenger Car Association, introduced that the large-scale equipping of new cars with EDR will not cause price increases.

Cui Dongshu: The cost is relatively low, that is, the concept of 300 to 500 yuan, manufacturers can overcome this impact, will not increase the cost of consumer car purchase.
