How Long Can China V Vehicles Remain in Use?
1 Answers
They can remain in use until at least 2031. Below is relevant information about China V standards: 1. Overview: China's fifth-stage motor vehicle pollutant emission standards, abbreviated as 'China V standards,' have emission control levels equivalent to Europe's currently implemented Euro 5 emission standards. The EU has been enforcing these standards since 2009, imposing stricter limits on vehicle emissions such as nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter. Each upgrade from China I to China IV has reduced single-vehicle pollution by 30% to 50%. 2. Comparison with China IV standards: Compared to China IV standards, the new standards reduce nitrogen oxide emissions by 25% for light-duty vehicles and 43% for heavy-duty vehicles. Based on Shanghai's annual vehicle registration volume of approximately 350,000 units, it is estimated that annual new vehicle additions could reduce nitrogen oxide emissions by about 1,000 tons. Additionally, China's China V emission control levels are equivalent to Europe's currently implemented Euro 5 standards.
