How Long Can National V Emission Standard Sedans Continue to Be Driven?

[HarrisonRose]

The latest policy has lifted the scrapping deadline for private passenger vehicles, so how long National V standard vehicles can continue to be driven depends on whether they meet the standards at the time of purchase. If they comply, they can be driven indefinitely. The upcoming National VI emission standard will not affect the normal operation of National V vehicles, as it will only prohibit the sale and registration of National V vehicles at that time. The timeline for National V vehicles to stop being registered is as follows: 1. The country has divided the "National VI standard" into two phases: "National VI a" and "National VI b", with plans to implement them nationwide uniformly in 2020 and 2023 respectively. However, many regions have implemented the National VI standard ahead of schedule. 2. Taking Guangdong Province as an example: Starting from July 1, 2019, newly registered vehicles in Guangdong Province must comply with the National VI emission standard. At that time, only new vehicles meeting the National VI standard will be available on the market, and vehicles transferred from other regions must also meet the National VI standard.
