How Long Can China IV Gasoline Vehicles Still Be Used?
1 Answers
As long as the vehicle is in good condition, a China IV standard vehicle can continue to be driven. Legal Provisions: There is no mandatory retirement period set for private passenger vehicles, only a guideline for "recommended retirement" after reaching 600,000 kilometers. For light-duty and heavy-duty trucks, the mandatory retirement period is 10 years, which can be extended up to 5 years, meaning the maximum mandatory retirement period for China IV trucks is 15 years. China IV Standard: It was first implemented in 2011 and fully enforced nationwide by 2013. Therefore, the oldest China IV vehicles are only about 8 years old. The phase-out of China IV vehicles will not be abrupt; there will certainly be a transition period.
