Poslední aktualizace: 1 лютого 2026 р.
Shrnutí
Chile strengthens road safety in 2026 with new vehicle emission regulations aligned with Euro 6 standards, expanded speed camera networks on major highways, mandatory advanced safety features for new vehicles, and updated penalties for distracted driving.
Klíčové změny
Euro 6 Equivalent Emission Standards for New Vehicles
Účinné od 1 липня 2026 р.
Euro 5 equivalent
New vehicles had to meet Euro 5 equivalent emission standards
Euro 6 equivalent required
All new light vehicles must meet Euro 6 equivalent emission standards, reducing NOx emissions by up to 56% compared to Euro 5
Oficiální zdroj: Ministerio de Medio Ambiente
Tip instruktora
“Chile is aligning with stricter global emission standards. From July 2026, all new cars must meet Euro 6 equivalent limits. This primarily affects manufacturers and importers, but drivers should know that newer vehicles will have cleaner exhaust systems.”
Expanded Speed Camera Network on Highways
Účinné od 1 березня 2026 р.
Limited camera coverage
Speed cameras deployed mainly in urban areas and select highway sections
Nationwide highway coverage
New fixed and mobile speed cameras installed on all major autopistas and Ruta 5 (Pan-American Highway) with average speed detection
Oficiální zdroj: CONASET Road Safety Plan
Tip instruktora
“Average speed cameras are being rolled out on Ruta 5 and major autopistas. These calculate your speed between two points, so slowing down at the camera then speeding up won't work. Maintain the speed limit consistently.”
Mandatory ESC and ABS for All New Vehicles
Účinné od 1 січня 2026 р.
ABS required, ESC optional
Anti-lock braking required but electronic stability control was not mandatory for all vehicle categories
ESC and ABS mandatory
All new passenger vehicles and light trucks must have both ABS and Electronic Stability Control (ESC) as standard equipment
Oficiální zdroj: Ministerio de Transportes y Telecomunicaciones
Tip instruktora
“ESC is now mandatory on all new cars sold in Chile. This system helps prevent skidding and loss of control, especially in wet conditions or sharp turns. It's one of the most effective safety technologies available.”

Re: Stricter Distracted Driving Penalties
