Can National 5 Vehicles Still Be Licensed?
1 Answers
National 5 vehicles cannot be licensed in cities that have implemented the National 6 emission standards, but there is no impact on licensing National 5 vehicles in cities that have not implemented National 6 standards. According to the Ministry of Environmental Protection's timeline, the implementation of the National 6 standard was originally divided into two phases: the first phase being the National 6a standard, and the second phase being the National 6b standard. Some regions have promoted the National 6 standard directly. Automotive emission standards refer to regulations on the content of harmful gases such as carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, particulates, and soot emitted from vehicle exhaust. China's national emission standards differ from European standards; the national standards are based on China's specific conditions, while the European standards are common standards adopted by member states of the European Community.
