| 2020-02668 | Nuro, Inc.; Grant of Temporary Exemption for a Low-Speed Vehicle With an Automated Driving System | Notice | This notice grants the petition of Nuro, Inc. (Nuro) for a temporary exemption from three requirements of FMVSS No. 500 under two bases: (1) That an exemption would make the development or field evaluation of a low-emission motor vehicle easier and would not unreasonably lower the safety level of that vehicle; and (2) that compliance with these requirements would prevent Nuro from selling a motor vehicle with an overall safety level at least equal to the overall safety level of a nonexempt vehicle. The vehicle that Nuro intends to manufacture under this exemption--the "R2X"--is a highly automated, electric, low-speed vehicle (LSV) that lacks seating positions and manual driving controls and is smaller, lower, and narrower than conventional vehicles. The exemption applies to the requirements that an LSV be equipped with exterior and/or interior mirrors; have a windshield that complies with FMVSS No. 205, "Glazing materials"; and a backup camera system that meets the requirement in FMVSS No. 111, "Rear visibility," limiting the length of time that a rearview image can remain displayed by the system after a vehicle's transmission has been shifted out of reverse gear. | 2020-02-11 | 2020 | 2 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2020/02/11/2020-02668/nuro-inc-grant-of-temporary-exemption-for-a-low-speed-vehicle-with-an-automated-driving-system | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2020-02-11/pdf/2020-02668.pdf | Transportation Department; National Highway Traffic Safety Administration | 492,345 | This notice grants the petition of Nuro, Inc.
