Can the Crown Land Cruiser Get a Green License Plate?
2 Answers
Crown Land Cruiser cannot get a green license plate, as only plug-in hybrid vehicles are eligible for green plates. Here’s an introduction to new energy vehicles: Advantages of new energy vehicles: Compared to traditional fuel-powered vehicles, new energy vehicle technology effectively reduces emissions, improves fuel efficiency, lowers operating costs, and offers the added benefits of smooth operation and low noise. However, new energy technology is still in the exploration and development phase, placing extremely high demands on current battery technology, precision mechanical and electronic control systems, and supporting infrastructure. Application scope: New energy vehicle technology primarily addresses the upgraded national emission standards, including fuel cell vehicles, hybrid vehicles, hydrogen-powered vehicles, and solar-powered vehicles. These are mainly used to replace petroleum resources and control emission pollution.
This depends on the specific configuration. The Crown Kluger currently mainly offers a hybrid version with a dual-engine setup. This hybrid is not a plug-in hybrid but relies on the coordination between the engine and battery, requiring no external charging. Therefore, it uses a regular blue license plate. If you're considering a green license plate, it typically applies to pure electric vehicles or plug-in hybrids, with the latter requiring a pure electric range exceeding 50 kilometers. However, policies keep changing recently, and there's talk that Toyota might be developing a plug-in hybrid version. If a plug-in model is released in the future, it could qualify for a green plate. Based on feedback from many owners I've checked, most current buyers are registering with blue plates.
