This standard establishes performance requirements for pedestrian alert sounds for powered standing and seated scooters as defined in SAE J3194. This standard establishes a set range of sound characteristics for sound frequency and sound pressure levels for select vehicle operation scenarios. Testing procedures are prescribed for each scenario.

This document is intended to provide a means of identification of Powered Micromobility Vehicle classes and characteristics through use of an alpha-numeric identifier. This document will apply primarily to the device classes identified in SAE J3194™. It provides a schema for utilizing alpha-numeric values to represent the manufacturer, year of manufacture, model, device type, weight, width, speed, power, and production number. It also addresses location for placement of these identifiers on the device, type of label, permanence, and visibility.

This SAE Recommended Practice (RP) normalizes kinematic performance metrics and testing for powered standing scooters as defined in SAE J3194. Specifically, it describes: Test procedures to measure the top speed, acceleration, and deceleration performance of powered standing scooters; Test scenarios that consider initial vehicle conditions, operator anthropometry, environmental and roadway conditions, and operating domains (e.g., geofence); Relevant units, accuracy, and precision of measurement for each test; and Methods to collect and report such kinematic data. This RP does not prescribe pass/fail criteria for testing. This RP is applicable to powered standing scooters that are privately owned or available via shared- or rental-fleet operations.

This technical report provides a taxonomy and classification of powered micromobility vehicles. These vehicles may be privately owned or be available via shared- or rental-fleet operations. This technical report does not provide specifications or otherwise impose minimum safety design requirements for powered micromobility vehicles.
