Can a Private Car Last for 30 Years?
1 Answers
Private cars can last for 30 years. Here is an introduction to the mandatory scrapping of motor vehicles: 1. Legal effect: The "Mandatory Scrapping Standards for Motor Vehicles" was reviewed and approved at the 68th ministerial meeting of the Ministry of Commerce on August 24, 2012, and agreed upon by the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Public Security, and the Ministry of Environmental Protection. On December 27, 2012, the Ministry of Commerce, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Public Security, and the Ministry of Environmental Protection issued Order No. 12 of 2012. 2. Historical changes: The new version of the "Mandatory Scrapping Standards for Motor Vehicles" has been in preparation for many years. Previously, China's motor vehicle scrapping standards began with the "Automobile Scrapping Standards" issued on July 15, 1997, which set the mandatory scrapping standard for private cars at 10 years or 100,000 kilometers. Later, with the rapid development of China's automobile industry and the improvement of vehicle technology, this restriction was considered too harsh. In the 2000 "Automobile Scrapping Standards," although private cars still had age restrictions, the standard could be extended to 15 years through annual inspections. In 2006, the Ministry of Commerce solicited opinions on the "Mandatory Scrapping Standards for Motor Vehicles," which for the first time removed the usage period limit for small and mini non-operational passenger vehicles, considered the most significant change.
