Can the Camry Hybrid get a green license plate?
2 Answers
No. The Levin Hybrid is not considered a new energy vehicle because its electric energy still comes from fuel. Currently, the Levin Hybrid cannot get a green license plate in most parts of the country. Here is some related information: Green License Plate: Green license plates are only issued to pure electric vehicles or plug-in hybrid vehicles. For example, the Tang and Qin are plug-in hybrids, while Tesla and Bestune are pure electric vehicles, and they all use green license plates. Classification: More and more vehicles with green license plates are on the road. The "green license plate" is a new energy vehicle license plate, a product of segmented management based on different vehicle types. On the first digit of the license plate, the letter "D" represents pure electric vehicles, and the letter "F" represents non-pure electric vehicles (including plug-in hybrids and fuel cell vehicles, etc.).
As a regular Camry Hybrid owner who drives frequently, I'd like to share: this car really can't get green license plates. Green plates are exclusively for pure electric or plug-in hybrid vehicles, but the Camry Hybrid is a non-plug-in hybrid that uses a combination of battery and gasoline, and the system doesn't support long-distance pure electric driving. In terms of policy, domestic regulations stipulate that only pure electric vehicles (BEV) or plug-in hybrids (PHEV) can enjoy green plate benefits, such as exemption from purchase tax and unrestricted driving. Although the Camry Hybrid is super fuel-efficient, possibly consuming only 4-5 liters per 100 kilometers, and is quite eco-friendly for daily driving, it doesn't meet the new energy standards. I also thought hybrid vehicles could get green plates before, but later found out the truth after checking, so it's important to understand the policies before buying. If you want green plates, you might consider Toyota's own plug-in hybrid version or BYD's DM-i series, which are more reliable. In short, the Camry Hybrid is a great car, but it's limited in terms of license plates, so this point needs attention.
