Significant because the GSD and HSD were proven to meet their claimed load limits of 200kg (440lb) and 170kg (375lb), an explanation of the types of load tests carried out is summarized here.
The CIN article linked to below mentions the new German cargo bike standard DIN 79010:2020-02 is likely to be adopted as an EU wide standard in due course.
