Are new energy vehicles restricted in Hangzhou?

[LeGemma]

Qualified new energy vehicles are not restricted in Hangzhou, but new energy vehicles with non-local license plates will be restricted when entering Hangzhou. For vehicles registered and licensed before April 5, 2016, with fuel types not solely gasoline or diesel, Zhejiang A-plate passenger cars are not restricted. These passenger cars refer to plug-in hybrid electric vehicles and pure electric vehicles. The specific details are as follows: 1. Encouragement to purchase new energy vehicles: Hangzhou has introduced this policy to encourage consumers to buy new energy vehicles, which include pure electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. Conventional hybrid vehicles are subject to restrictions. 2. Longer range: Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles have larger batteries, allowing them to travel longer distances in pure electric mode. The motor power of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles is also greater. Generally, the pure electric range of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles can reach about 100 kilometers.
