Artikel 107 Ändring av förordning (EU) 2018/858

This is a brief amendment article that integrates the AI Act's requirements into the existing motor vehicle type-approval framework under Regulation (EU) 2018/858.

It does so by inserting a new obligation into Article 5 of that Regulation, ensuring that when the Commission adopts delegated acts related to AI systems that function as safety components in vehicles, the technical requirements for high-risk AI systems set out in Chapter III, Section 2 of the AI Act must be taken into account.

This article is one of several in the AI Act that make targeted amendments to existing sector-specific EU legislation, effectively bridging the AI Act's requirements with pre-existing product safety frameworks.

Important points:

• The Commission is required to take into account the AI Act's Chapter III, Section 2 requirements when adopting delegated acts under Regulation (EU) 2018/858 that concern AI systems acting as safety components.
• This obligation is triggered specifically when AI systems fall within the safety component definition of the AI Act, meaning they fulfil a safety function or their failure could endanger health, safety, or property.
• This article amends Regulation (EU) 2018/858 directly, making the AI Act's high-risk AI system requirements relevant to the motor vehicle type-approval regime.
