Does the Highlander meet the China VI emission standard?

The Highlander meets the China VI emission standard. The China VI standard reduces carbon monoxide emissions from gasoline vehicles by 50%, total hydrocarbon and non-methane hydrocarbon emission limits by 50%, and nitrogen oxide emission limits by 42%. In terms of body dimensions, the Highlander measures 4890mm in length, 1925mm in width, and 1715mm in height. For the suspension, the Highlander features a MacPherson strut independent front suspension and an E-type multi-link independent rear suspension. Under the hood, this vehicle is equipped with a 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 220ps, a maximum power of 165kw, and a maximum torque of 350nm, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.

I just test drove the new Highlander at the 4S store a few days ago, and the salesperson specifically emphasized that all vehicles currently sold meet China VI emission standards. After the major facelift in 2019, the entire lineup was upgraded to China VI standards, especially the hybrid version with its THS-II system, which is particularly fuel-efficient and eco-friendly. If you check the specifications, you'll see the exhaust treatment system uses an advanced GPF particulate filter that even controls cold-start emissions effectively. My friend had no issues registering the 2.0T gasoline version he bought last year, and in the used car market now, all Highlanders from 2019 onwards carry the China VI label.

I remember checking the records last month when helping my cousin choose a car. The Highlander has been equipped with China VI-B standard for over two years. Currently, if the inventory cars at the 4S store have nameplates marked with GB18352.6-2016, it means they are China VI certified. Even the exhaust data of the 2.0T low-power version is 20% lower than the standard value. During the last maintenance, the technician mentioned that this car's after-treatment system has dual protection with a three-way catalytic converter plus a particulate filter, and no one has ever failed the emission test during annual inspections.

Checked the environmental protection list and confirmed: All Highlanders after July 2019 comply with China VI emission standards, including the 2.5L hybrid and 2.0T gasoline versions. The emission certification numbers can be verified on the official website of China's Ministry of Ecology and Environment. The DPF device is more than sufficient to meet the new regulations. For used car transfers, no additional testing is required for the 2019 models.

Last week, when accompanying my colleague to pick up his car, I personally saw the China 6b blue label attached to the vehicle documents. The dealer mentioned that all current vehicles have their engine ECUs flashed with the latest program, and the OBD detection port can monitor emissions in real-time. Now, there's no need to worry about emission standards when buying a Highlander, and even registering it in Tibet is not an issue.

In the car enthusiasts' group, someone tested and found that the PM2.5 value from the exhaust pipe during cold starts of the National VI version Highlander is 60% lower than the older model, with particulate emissions at 0.003g/km, far below the national standard limit of 0.025g/km. When buying a new car now, remember to check the seventh item on the conformity certificate; if it states 'Stage VI,' you're good to go.
