How Long Can China 5 Vehicles Be Driven After China 6 Emission Standard Takes Effect?
1 Answers
The implementation of China 6 emission standard does not mean China 5 or China 4 vehicles will be immediately phased out. As long as the vehicles can pass annual inspections and meet all required standards, China 5 vehicles can continue to operate normally. The differences between China 5 and China 6 standards are: 1. Different CO emission requirements: China 5 allows 1000mg/km CO emissions while China 6 reduces it to 500mg/km. 2. Different letter representations: China 5 uses "V" while China 6 uses "VI". 3. Different issuing authorities: China 5 was issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection, while China 6 was jointly issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection and General Administration of Quality Supervision. 4. Different control levels: China 5's emission control level is equivalent to Euro 5 standard, while China 6 establishes stricter standards to prevent environmental pollution from compression-ignition and gas-fueled engines and protect public health.
