Does the Haval M6 meet China 6 emission standards?

Haval M6 meets China 6 emission standards. Models that comply with China 6 standards are sold in regions where China 6 has been implemented, while models meeting China 5 standards are sold in regions where China 6 has not yet been implemented. As the first compact model in the Haval M series, the Haval M6 is positioned as a family-oriented compact SUV. The Haval M6 is equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine across the entire lineup. The engine code is GW4G15F, with a maximum power of 110kW and a maximum torque of 210Nm. This engine features multi-point electronic fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. It is paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The front suspension of the Haval M6 uses a MacPherson independent suspension, while the rear suspension employs a double-wishbone independent suspension.
I'm an owner who bought a Haval M6 last year and paid special attention to the emission standards at that time. The Haval M6 certainly has a China 6 version, and the 2020 model was fully upgraded to China 6. The automatic elite model I bought meets the China 6b emission standard, and it has passed the annual inspection smoothly after two years of driving. When buying a used car, you need to check the nameplate or environmental protection list; those manufactured after July 2019 are basically China 6. The license plate policies vary in different cities. For example, in our area, China 5 vehicles can no longer be registered, so choosing a China 6 model holds its value better. The 1.5T engine of this car has improved the emission system, and the fuel consumption is even slightly lower than the older models. I suggest you go directly to the 4S store for a test drive; the price of new cars now is even more favorable than when I bought mine.
I've been repairing cars for over a decade and have handled at least a hundred Haval M6s. The China VI version does exist, mainly entering mass production in the second half of 2019. The engine model GW4G15F is the one that meets China VI standards, with an added particulate filter for exhaust treatment. To identify it, simply check the emissions section on the vehicle conformity certificate - China VI will be marked as GB18352.6-2016. Currently, the price difference between China V and China VI models in the used car market is about three to five thousand yuan, so I recommend prioritizing China VI models. During maintenance, be sure to use low-ash engine oil to avoid clogging the exhaust system. Just last week, I helped a client inspect a 2021 used M6 with complete China VI documentation - no issues found.
