Can Beijing's New Energy Vehicle Quota Be Used to Purchase Plug-in Hybrids?
2 Answers
Beijing's new energy vehicle quota cannot be used to purchase plug-in hybrids. Additional information regarding Beijing's new energy vehicle quota is as follows: 1. The new energy vehicle quota is only applicable to pure electric models. Hybrid models are not included in this category and still require participation in the regular passenger vehicle license plate lottery. 2. Beijing's new energy vehicle quota does not use a lottery system but instead operates on a first-come, first-served basis. 3. Individuals who already own a fuel-powered vehicle are not only ineligible to participate in the lottery for a second fuel-powered vehicle but also cannot apply for a quota to purchase a new energy vehicle. 4. Those who already own a new energy vehicle are also ineligible to purchase a second new energy vehicle and cannot apply to participate in the fuel-powered vehicle lottery.
I remember last year after participating in the new energy vehicle license lottery in Beijing, I considered buying a plug-in hybrid vehicle and specifically researched a lot of information. Actually, Beijing's new energy vehicle license can indeed be used to purchase plug-in hybrid vehicles, provided that the license is designated for new energy vehicles, which include both pure electric and plug-in hybrid types. The policy encourages people to choose such vehicles to reduce emissions. For example, I successfully purchased a plug-in hybrid myself, and it's quite convenient to drive, suitable for daily commuting. However, it's important to distinguish the license type; although pure electric licenses can be compatible with plug-in hybrids, it's best to confirm the current rules on the lottery website. It's advisable to consult with an official 4S dealership, as they can provide the latest subsidy and license plate details. In summary, this is a good option, but don't forget to spend some time verifying to avoid any mistakes.
