Does China VI Standard Affect New Car Purchases?
2 Answers
The implementation of China VI standard has certain impacts on car purchases, whether buying new or used vehicles. The most direct effect for consumers is that China V models will experience some degree of depreciation and price reduction. Purchasing a China V vehicle could be an option if substantial price discounts are available. For locally purchased used cars within the same city, successful transfer of ownership only requires passing the annual inspection. Relevant information about automotive emission standards is as follows: 1. Introduction: Automotive emission standards regulate the content of harmful gases emitted from vehicle exhaust, including CO (carbon monoxide), HC+NOx (hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides), and PM (particulate matter, soot). 2. Implementation Status: Starting from January 1, 2004, Beijing upgraded its vehicle emission standards from Euro I to Euro II, and officially implemented Euro III standards by 2008.
Now let me talk about the impact of China VI on new car purchases. As someone who usually pays attention to environmental protection, I think this is a big deal. The China VI emission standard is a new policy introduced by the government to reduce pollution. When buying a new car, if the car you choose is not China VI certified, you won’t be able to get a license plate in many places, which is something to pay special attention to. It forces automakers to use cleaner exhaust systems, such as those tail gas filtration devices, which can reduce PM2.5 and harmful gas emissions, greatly helping to improve our city’s air quality. In the long run, this will also promote the development of electric vehicles, making car purchases greener and driving without polluting the environment—how great is that? Personally, I think even though the cost of changing cars might be higher, it’s worth it for the sake of health!
