as effective in reducing and deterring motor vehicle theft as compliance with the parts-marking requirements of the theft prevention standard. This conclusion is based on the information BMW provided about its antitheft device. NHTSA believes, based on BMWs supporting evidence, that the antitheft device described for its vehicle line is likely to be as effective in reducing and deterring motor vehicle theft as compliance with the partsmarking requirements of the theft prevention standard.
The agency concludes that BMWs antitheft device will provide the four of the five types of performance features listed in section 543.6a3: Promoting activation; preventing defeat or circumvention of the device by unauthorized persons; preventing operation of the vehicle by unauthorized entrants; and ensuring the reliability and durability of the device.
The agency notes that 49 CFR part 541, Appendix A1, identifies those lines that are exempted from the theft prevention standard for a given model year. 49 CFR 543.8f contains publication requirements incident to the disposition of all part 543 petitions.
Advanced listing, including the release of future product nameplates, the beginning model year for which the petition is granted and a general description of the antitheft device is necessary in order to notify law enforcement agencies of new vehicle lines exempted from the parts-marking requirements of the theft prevention standard.
If BMW decides not to use the exemption for its requested vehicle line, the manufacturer must formally notify the agency. If such a decision is made, the line must be fully marked as required by 49 CFR 541.5 and 541.6
marking of major component parts and replacement parts.
NHTSA notes that if BMW wishes in the future to modify the device on which this exemption is based, the company may have to submit a petition to modify the exemption. Section 543.8d states that a part 543 exemption applies only to vehicles that belong to a line exempted under this part and equipped with the antitheft device on which the lines exemption is based.
Further, section 543.10c2 provides for the submission of petitions to modify an exemption to permit the use of an antitheft device similar to but differing from the one specified in the exemption.
The agency wishes to minimize the administrative burden that section 543.10c2 could place on exempted vehicle manufacturers and itself. The

agency did not intend in drafting part 543 to require the submission of a modification petition for every change to the components or design of an antitheft device. The significance of many such changes could be de minimis. Therefore, NHTSA suggests that if BMW contemplates making any changes, the effects of which might be characterized as de minimis, it should consult the agency before preparing and submitting a petition to modify.
For the foregoing reasons, the agency hereby grants in full BMWs petition for exemption for the Toyota Supra vehicle line from the parts-marking requirements of 49 CFR part 541, beginning with its MY 2022 vehicles.
Issued under authority delegated in 49 CFR
1.95 and 501.8.
