Do new energy vehicles require inspection?
2 Answers
New energy vehicles require inspection. For private cars, whether they are pure fuel models or electric models, they need to undergo on-site inspection after 6 years of use. New Energy Vehicles: New energy vehicles refer to vehicles that use unconventional vehicle fuels as power sources, integrating advanced technologies in vehicle power control and driving, forming vehicles with advanced technical principles, new technologies, and new structures. Vehicle Inspection: The vehicle annual inspection process refers to the fixed procedure for motor vehicles during their annual inspection. It is a mandatory test for every vehicle, equivalent to giving the vehicle a physical examination, promptly eliminating potential safety hazards and reducing the occurrence of traffic accidents, which is commonly referred to as vehicle inspection.
I've been driving a new energy vehicle for a while now, and vehicle inspection is absolutely necessary. According to national regulations, all vehicles, including new energy vehicles, must undergo regular annual inspections, primarily to ensure driving safety. For new energy vehicles like electric or hybrid cars, the inspection content is largely the same as for fuel-powered vehicles: checking the braking system, lighting signals, tire wear, steering mechanism, etc. However, they skip the tailpipe emissions test, which is a bit more convenient. New vehicles are exempt from on-site inspections for the first 6 years, only requiring an online application for the inspection label; after the sixth year, they must undergo an actual vehicle condition inspection every two years. During regular maintenance, pay extra attention to the high-voltage wiring and battery condition. Before the inspection, quickly check the bulbs and brake pads yourself to avoid a wasted trip. After all, safety is no small matter, and regular inspections can help identify potential hazards in time, protecting both ourselves and pedestrians.
