The Sylphy e-Power cannot get a green license plate. Features of the Sylphy e-Power: The new car is equipped with the latest NissanConnect super-intelligent system, featuring an external 8-inch high-definition capacitive touch screen, which includes functions such as voice control of the vehicle and remote control of the vehicle. Voice control allows basic operations of the vehicle's online entertainment system, all-time online navigation system, Bluetooth phone, driving recorder, and air conditioning through simple conversations. The remote monitoring and control function enables users to establish a seamless connection with the vehicle via a smart app, keeping them fully informed about the vehicle's status and allowing remote control of door locks, lights & horn, engine, and air conditioning based on specific needs. Powertrain introduction of the Sylphy e-Power: In terms of power, it is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine that meets the China VI emission standards, with a maximum power of 99kW (135 horsepower) and a peak torque of 159Nm, paired with a CVT transmission.
As an automotive enthusiast, I discovered that the Nissan Sylphy e-Power utilizes e-Power technology, where the engine solely functions as a generator, and the wheels are entirely driven by an electric motor. However, the drawback is that it cannot be charged externally. In China, green license plates are only issued to pure electric vehicles or plug-in hybrid vehicles, specifically those capable of external charging. Since the Sylphy e-Power lacks this feature, it typically doesn't qualify for green plates under current policies and is instead issued a blue plate. I've thoroughly researched the relevant regulations, and vehicles like this non-plug-in hybrid are classified as upgraded versions of traditional fuel-powered cars, thus not eligible for new energy subsidies or green plate privileges. If you're considering purchasing one, it's advisable to confirm the local implementation details with the dealer in advance to avoid future issues. Given the rapidly changing policies in the automotive market, some regions might have slightly more lenient regulations.
