Can China 5 Vehicles Still Be Licensed After the Implementation of China 6 Standards?

[SanJohnny]

After the implementation of China 6 standards, China 5 vehicles cannot be licensed, but they can still be driven on the road. The new regulations only constrain automobile manufacturers, requiring that new products must meet the emission regulations of China 6. Below is the relevant introduction to China 5 and China 6 standards: 1. Two phases of China 6 standards: The China 6 standard is divided into two phases, with the initial phase being a transitional stage, and the latter phase representing the true China 6 emission standard. Taking gasoline vehicles as an example, China 6A is a slight improvement over China 5, mainly targeting CO emissions and PN particulate matter. China 6B is much stricter, with many emission limits being approximately halved compared to China 5. 2. China 6 vehicles retain value better: Whether to buy a China 5 or China 6 vehicle depends on individual circumstances. If you plan to use the car until it is scrapped or for eight to ten years, it is recommended to buy a China 5 vehicle, as there will be significant discounts on China 5 vehicles at this time when China 6 is about to be implemented. If you want a car that retains its value better, it is advisable to buy a China 6 standard vehicle.
