At What Mileage Should a Passenger Car Be Scrapped?
1 Answers
When a passenger car reaches a normal driving mileage of 600,000 kilometers, the state will guide its scrapping. If the vehicle is over 15 years old and has not reached 600,000 kilometers, it will require two annual inspections. If it fails the inspection, it will be mandatorily scrapped. The difference between guided scrapping and mandatory scrapping: Guided scrapping is a recommendation for scrapping, but if the vehicle still meets the requirements for continued use, it does not have to be scrapped. Mandatory scrapping means the vehicle must, without exception, be scrapped. There are four criteria for mandatory scrapping: Reaching the prescribed service life; Failing to meet the national safety technical standards for in-use vehicles after repairs and adjustments; Still failing to meet national standards for pollutant or noise emissions after repairs, adjustments, or control technology measures; Failing to obtain the mandatory inspection certification mark for three consecutive inspection cycles after the expiration of the inspection period.
