Does a brand-new car that just turned 1 year old require an annual inspection?

[MacKinsley]

Whether a brand-new car that just turned 1 year old requires an annual inspection depends on the vehicle type and specific nature: 1. Cars with 7 seats or more are not eligible for the 6-year exemption policy and still need to be inspected every 2 years during the first 6 years; 2. For commercial vehicles, an annual inspection is required for the first 5 years after registration, and every 6 months after exceeding 5 years; 3. Trucks and medium/large non-commercial passenger vehicles require an annual inspection within the first 10 years, and every 6 months after exceeding 10 years; 4. 5-seat cars enjoy the initial 6-year exemption policy. Although they are exempt from on-site inspections for 6 years, they still need to apply for an annual inspection sticker every 2 years. The prerequisite for this exemption is that the vehicle has not been involved in any major traffic accidents during this period. If an accident occurs, the vehicle must undergo an on-site annual inspection.
