China prepares standards for assessing motion sickness in NEVs — ECNS
China is working to include motion sickness and other issues related to the health of passengers in new energy vehicles (NEVs) in standardized testing and assessment. This was reported by ECNS.
Motion sickness in NEVs
Liu Lu, a researcher at the Research Institute of Highway under China’s Ministry of Transport, noted that NEVs may cause motion sickness more often than conventional cars. According to him, this is due to differences in acceleration and energy recovery systems.
The issue is particularly relevant for taxis and ride-hailing vehicles.

Impact of interior lighting
Researchers are also studying the impact of lighting inside vehicles on eye health. In particular, this concerns in-car displays and infrared cameras used to monitor the driver.
Based on animal studies, eye examinations, and light intensity tests, specialists are working to establish exposure limits for future NEV standards.
