Recently, experts appointed by Dutch Royal Ministry of Transportation (RDW) declared that Yutong’s ZK6129H/ZK6119HA buses passed the WVTA (Whole Vehicle Type Approval) of European Union (EU) after two-day’s audit.

It’s learned that the audit includes controls on whole vehicle manufacturing consistency, parts &components manufacturing consistency, engineering change of products, order review, update of overseas laws and regulations, overseas recall, COC certificate management procedure, the responsibilities of European office and its relations with Yutong Bus, etc.

EU’s Whole Vehicle Type Approval, WVTA for short, also called e-sign approval, is a compulsory certificate in EU based on EC directives or Brussels directives. All whole vehicles and auto parts with WVTA certificate are eligible to be sold in EU member countries. The stringent approval set rather high standards on emission volumes, safety performance, as well as environmental protection, and is one of the three automotive approval systems together with American and Japanese counterpart approval systems.
