Does the Fista have a China VI compliant model?
2 Answers
Fista has China VI compliant models. China VI refers to the vehicle's exhaust emission standards, officially known as the National Sixth Stage Emission Standard for Motor Vehicle Pollutants. The China VI emission standard is divided into two phases: China VIa and China VIb. The Fista measures 4660mm in length, 1790mm in width, and 1425mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm, and features a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout. It is powered by a 1.6T turbocharged engine paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. This engine delivers a maximum power of 140kW and a peak torque of 265Nm. Additionally, the engine is equipped with direct fuel injection technology and utilizes an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block.
Yes, the Fista does have models that meet the China 6 emission standards. As someone who pays close attention to automotive technology, I often research such information. China 6 is the latest emission standard in China, primarily aimed at reducing harmful gas emissions, such as nitrogen oxides and particulate matter. Hyundai Motor started upgrading the engine technology of models like the Fista around 2019 to comply with the standards by optimizing the fuel system and installing particulate filters. When purchasing a car, you can check the vehicle certification or VIN code, which will indicate the China 6 label, to avoid buying older China 5 second-hand models. If you're opting for a new car, simply ask the salesperson at the 4S store to confirm—most of the newly launched Fista models now are China 6 compliant, offering more environmentally friendly and fuel-efficient driving. I believe choosing a China 6 car is not only better for the environment but also prepares you for potential future policy restrictions, such as smoother license plate registration in megacities, without constantly worrying about environmental audits.
