Can China III Vehicles Still Pass Annual Inspection?
1 Answers
China III vehicles can still pass annual inspection and be driven on the road normally after passing, but they cannot be driven on some restricted road sections. China III is the abbreviation for the National Phase III Emission Standard, equivalent to the Euro III emission standard. The content of tailpipe pollutants is the same as Euro III, with the only difference being that new vehicles must be equipped with an OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) system. Annual inspection, also known as annual check, refers to the annual or biennial safety inspection of vehicles, including a comprehensive check of the horn, brakes, axle weight, chassis, ignition system, lighting system, exhaust system, license plate installation, etc. For the annual inspection of motor vehicles, the first step is to check whether the vehicle has any traffic violations. If there are any violations, they must be resolved before the annual inspection; otherwise, the annual inspection cannot be processed if the violations are not cleared.
