The ambient temperature and the SOC shall be in accordance with the said Regulations. This requirement is deemed to be met if the vehicle equipped with electric power train operating on high voltage is approved in accordance with UN Regulation No. 94 (04 series of amendments or later) or UN Regulation No. 137 (01 02 series of amendments or later) for frontal impact and UN Regulation No. 95 (05 series of amendments or later) for lateral impact.
