2. What are the
merits of regulation harmonization? Why is it more
widely recognized in recent years? |
 |
 |
2. The merits of international
regulation harmonization include the reduction of
development and production costs on the part of manufacturers
and the expansion of choices on the part of consumers.
The former can be achieved when design specifications
of vehicles are unified by regulation harmonization
and thus more common parts and components may be used
for vehicles to be sold in different parts of the
world. The latter becomes possible when certification
procedures of each country are simplified by regulation
harmonization and hence more vehicles are introduced
into markets of different countries/regions. In addition,
as vehicle manufacturers' operations are being expanded
globally, the role of regulation harmonization in
ensuring smooth trading of vehicles between nations
is increasingly recognized. |
