澳大利亚将授权在2025年11月前对新的电动车辆和混合车辆发出声频警报,以改善行人的安全。 Australia will mandate audible alerts on new electric and hybrid vehicles by November 2025 to improve pedestrian safety.

从2025年11月1日起,澳大利亚将要求所有新的电动车辆、插件混合车辆和混合车辆建立声频车辆警报系统(AVAS),以低速(最多20公里/小时)发出声响,帮助提醒行人,特别是盲人或视力低的行人。 Starting November 1, 2025, Australia will require all new electric, plug-in hybrid, and hybrid vehicles to have an Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS) that emits audible sounds at low speeds—up to 20 km/h—to help alert pedestrians, especially those who are blind or have low vision. 这项规则称为《澳大利亚设计细则》第113/00条,最初适用于新的车辆型号,到2026年11月1日将扩大到所有新的非燃烧发动机车辆。 The rule, known as Australian Design Rule 113/00, applies initially to new vehicle models and will extend to all new non-combustion-engine vehicles by November 1, 2026. AVAS必须在没有暂停功能的情况下自动激活,最高音量限制为75 dBA。 AVAS must activate automatically without a pause function and is limited to a maximum sound level of 75 dBA. 政府估计,到2060年,这项措施可防止大约68人死亡和数千人受伤。 The government estimates the measure could prevent around 68 deaths and thousands of injuries by 2060. 该任务遵循美国、欧洲和中国的类似规则,并受到澳大利亚愿景倡导团体的欢迎。 The mandate follows similar rules in the U.S., Europe, and China, and was welcomed by advocacy group Vision Australia.
