They are also required to be replaced in commercial vehicles\u00a0between 2.5 and 3.5 tonnes\u00a0, and will have to comply\u00a0by July 2026, again in cases where they carry out international transport.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The new digital tachograph, also renamed &#8220;smart&#8221;,<\/strong> is optimised to record border crossings, the position of the vehicle during\u00a0loading\/unloading\u00a0and uses \u00a0Galileo satellite authentication. In addition to simplifying the work of drivers, operators and law enforcement agencies, it introduces\u00a0new anti-tampering mechanisms and the possibility of\u00a0updating the software\u00a0to implement new functions, avoiding the need to replace the device in the event of different technical specifications.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On the set date, however, many of the devices were unavailable due to supply delays that were not due to the road transport sector.<\/strong> In Italy, the count carried out by the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport referred to a quantity of trucks and coaches of between 7,000 and 9,000 units. However, the situation was practically the same in other countries. <strong>Thus, individual member states of the European Union were forced by circumstances to take action, introducing temporary grace periods with the approval of the European Commission. This situation, as revealed by an <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.iru.org\/system\/files\/flash\/2023-08\/%28Updated%29%20%20BR9046-EN.pdf\"><strong>analysis by IRI<\/strong><\/a><strong>, the World Road Transport Organisation, has resulted in countries applying the grace period differently: <\/strong>some have granted a larger window of time for compliance, in others the grace period is shorter. For example, in Germany the grace period is 24 months, in Austria it lasts until June 1, 2024, and in Sweden until April, 31, 2024, after which the requirement to replace the unit is triggered. In France the suspension lasts four or six months, depending on whether the truck was sold complete or incomplete. In Spain, on the other hand, the deadline has been set for December 31, 2023.<\/p>\n<p>As often happens in these cases, all these dates must be considered as indicative of a situation that is constantly evolving. Further extensions or suspensions cannot be ruled out at all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"categoria_news":[236],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Tachographs for new trucks not available<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Discover recent EU updates on intelligent tachographs for commercial vehicles.
