Can a Spoiler Pass the Annual Vehicle Inspection?

[Daniela]

Installing a spoiler on a car will not pass the annual vehicle inspection. During the inspection, authorities check whether the vehicle has been modified, altered, or reconstructed, and verify if the vehicle's registration certificate, license plate, and vehicle records match the actual condition of the car, including any changes. They also check if the necessary approval and modification procedures have been completed. Below are specific details about the annual vehicle inspection: 1. Meaning of Annual Inspection: It is a mandatory test for vehicles that have already obtained official license plates. 2. Exemption Policy: The 6-year exemption for eligible vehicles means they are exempt from on-site inspection. However, owners still need to have their vehicle's emissions tested within the specified period (usually every 2 years) and apply for an inspection compliance mark at the vehicle management office, motor vehicle registration service station, or traffic police station, which must then be affixed to the upper right corner of the vehicle's front windshield. 3. Scope of Exemption Policy: The 6-year exemption policy for non-commercial passenger cars and other eligible vehicles has been in trial implementation since September 1, 2014.
