Does the Transfer of Ownership of a Used New Energy Vehicle Affect the Warranty?
1 Answers
No, it does not. In most regions, the transfer of ownership for new energy vehicles and related procedures are the same as those for blue-plate fuel vehicles—ownership transfer can be processed as long as the vehicle ownership is established. However, it is important to note that for blue-plate fuel vehicles, the license plate follows the person, not the vehicle, whereas for new energy vehicles, the license plate follows the vehicle, not the person. This means that when transferring ownership of a new energy vehicle, the license plate must also be transferred. The vehicle and license plate can only be separated six months after the transfer date. Additional Information: Documents required for vehicle transfer: original owner's ID card, new owner's ID card, original and duplicate vehicle registration certificate, purchase tax certificate, vehicle and vessel tax payment proof, vehicle registration certificate, vehicle inspection report, insurance policy, card, and invoice. All documents must be provided in original. Notes: The used vehicle market implements an agency system for ownership transfers, where the transfer window does not directly handle transactions for consumers. The vehicle must be brought to the market, and a used vehicle agency will complete the transfer process, which includes evaluation, inspection, and payment.
