Shanghai. November 16 (Gasgoo.com) - Chongqing Lifan Group, one of China's leading motorcycle makers, have passed E mark accreditation from Netherland authorities, which indicates Lifan’s products can enter 18 European countries.
 
Lifan said every aspect of Lifan 520 car, including exterior parts such as lamps, tires, glasses, horns, and seats can well meet the requirements of the regulations.
 
The E mark is based on ECE regulations issued by the Geneva-based Economic Commission for Europe. It is the proof of compliance with directives (laws) required by the European Union. The Council of European communities in Brussels issues these directives and all members must accept approved products.
 
It allows auto manufacturers to demonstrate to existing and potential customers that their product meets the applicable automotive EMC requirements. Some of the automotive "extras", such as car stereos, alarm systems, power sunroofs, mobile phone adapters, navigational systems and high-mounted stop lamps, are also under scrutiny for EMC.
 
It can also simplify the certification process for the manufacturer significantly, i.e. if all relevant electronic and electric systems have been individually approved, no further testing is required on the vehicle. Additionally, components which are covered by the Automotive EMC Directive and comply with the EMC Directive 89/336/EEC may be marked with the CE Marking.
 
Earlier this month Lifan announced that its Lifan 520 sedan produced by the company's assembly line in Russia has passed the Europe R-94 crash test. The company also announced a $160mln worth export contract with Russian partner AutoMir after it passed the Russia crash test.
