Does the Chevrolet Equinox meet China VI emission standards?
2 Answers
Chevrolet Equinox complies with China VI emission standards. The China VI emission standard is the national sixth-stage motor vehicle pollutant emission standard, which regulates the emissions of carbon monoxide, total hydrocarbons, non-methane hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter mass, and particulate matter count. The Chevrolet Equinox has a length, width, and height of 4652mm, 1843mm, and 1684mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2725mm, positioning it as a midsize SUV. The Chevrolet Equinox is equipped with the eighth-generation Ecotec 2.0T intelligent variable-cylinder turbocharged engine, which can smoothly switch among three operating modes: four-cylinder powerful, four-cylinder efficient, and two-cylinder cruising, delivering a maximum power of 174kW and a maximum torque of 350Nm.
Speaking of the Chevrolet Equinox, I'm quite familiar with this vehicle since several neighbors in my community drive it. From a technical perspective, this model definitely meets China's National VI emission standards in the domestic market, especially the post-2020 versions. Whether equipped with the 1.5T or 2.0T engine, all variants have passed the stringent China 6b standard tests. This means it emits significantly fewer pollutants than China 5 vehicles, with more advanced emission control technology, making it perfectly suitable for daily driving in restricted zones like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou without worrying about urban area access restrictions. I've checked both Chevrolet's official website and the vehicle manual, which clearly specify the emission compliance level. Buyers can directly verify this information on the vehicle identification plate or confirm with sales personnel. Overall, choosing a China 6-compliant vehicle is not only environmentally friendly but also avoids policy-related usage constraints.
