How many years does a car require two inspections per year?

Cars over 15 years old require two inspections per year. Non-commercial passenger vehicles such as sedans are exempt from inspection for the first 6 years. During this 6-year period, the vehicle owner or the unit to which the vehicle belongs must submit the compulsory traffic insurance policy and vehicle and vessel tax certificate to the vehicle management office every two years, and then directly apply to the traffic management department of the public security bureau for the inspection compliance mark. Here are the things to pay attention to before the annual vehicle inspection: 1. Check whether the insurance policy is valid, especially for the first annual inspection of a new car. If the information on the insurance policy does not match the actual situation, correct it with the insurance company; 2. If you need to replace the environmental protection mark, go to the environmental protection bureau's auto repair shop in advance to test the exhaust to save time; 3. Clear traffic violations at the traffic team; 4. For the annual inspection, it is better to be early than late. Inspections at the beginning of each month will be faster;

What do 4L and 4H four-wheel drive mean?

Introduction to 4L and 4H four-wheel drive: 1. 4L: Represents ultra-low-speed four-wheel drive, this mode is used in extremely harsh environments such as swamps and deserts. Four-wheel drive, also known as all-wheel drive, usually has a small "gear lever" near the gear shift, which is the transfer case handle, the lever used to select off-road gears. 2. 4H: Means four-wheel drive. If you switch to four-wheel drive mode when driving in the rain, the vehicle's direction remains stable and the handling is excellent. Car owners should note that in "4H" mode, the speed should be kept below 100 km/h. The most common gear positions are 2H, 4H, N, and 4L. 4H stands for 4WD HIGH, used for quickly passing through uneven roads. 4L stands for 4WD LOW, used for low-speed passage through extreme off-road sections. N is neutral, used for switching between 4H and 4L.

What are the new regulations for annual inspection of new energy vehicles in 2021?

New regulations stipulate that vehicles within 6 years of purchase are eligible for two exemptions from inspection (inspection labels must be applied for every two years without requiring on-site vehicle testing). Vehicles exceeding the following periods require annual inspection: 1. At the 6th and 8th year, vehicles must undergo on-site testing. 2. For private vehicles over 10 years old, the original inspection cycle remains in effect, meaning annual inspections from 10 to 15 years, and semi-annual inspections for vehicles over 15 years. Compared to traditional fuel vehicles, new energy electric vehicles feature more specialized three-electric systems, with internal structures that are more complex than conventional vehicles. The power batteries installed in these vehicles must have a voltage of at least 300V, presenting extremely high risk factors. Additionally, the intricate electrical wiring structures are prone to aging, and without annual inspections, potential safety hazards would increase year by year.
