July 2 | EU Updates New Version of EN 15194 Standard for Leisure Mobility Vehicles, Mandatory Upgrade of Battery Safety

2026-07-13

The European Committee for Standardization officially released the revised EN 15194 specification for electric mobility vehicles in July, tightening inspection access requirements for leisure two-wheelers and low-speed sightseeing tricycles. The new standard adds mandatory tests including vehicle anti-tilt stability, lithium battery thermal runaway protection and IPX5 whole-vehicle waterproof performance. All imported leisure electric two-wheelers and tricycles must be equipped with complete CE and UN38.3 dual certification documents.


Customs inspection rates for supermarkets in Germany, France and the Netherlands have risen to 70%. Goods without updated test reports will be detained and returned directly. European local brands require a certification cycle of over 3 months, while inquiries for Chinese fully compliant leisure vehicles jumped 57% month-on-month. Models customized for camping and retirement communities record the fastest order growth.
