Can a 2009 Nissan Sylphy still be driven after ten years?
1 Answers
2009 Nissan Sylphy can still be driven after ten years. According to the previous 15-year scrappage regulation, a 2009 car could be driven for four more years until 2024 when it would be scrapped. However, the current regulation determines scrappage based on mileage, with the maximum mileage set at 600,000 kilometers. Cars that have been used for twenty years without being scrapped must undergo four inspections annually. Below is relevant information: Lifespan: Generally, the service life of a car is about 15 years as per regulations. The specific service life should be analyzed based on actual usage. Generally, some cars do not have a service life limit, such as 5-seat family cars, 7-seat SUVs, and small vehicles. Scrappage requirements: However, when a car's mileage reaches 600,000 kilometers, the government will guide the scrappage of such vehicles. For cars older than 15 years but with mileage below 600,000 kilometers, they must undergo an inspection every six months. If the inspection is passed, the car can continue to be driven; if not, it will be forcibly scrapped. If a car that should be scrapped is not, it will affect the renewal of the driver's license or the annual inspection of the vehicle.
