How many more years can a China 5 vehicle be driven if purchased now?
1 Answers
China 5 vehicles can be driven until they are scrapped, as there is no mandatory retirement period set for private passenger vehicles in China. Therefore, how long a China 5 vehicle can be driven depends on whether it meets the standards at the time of purchase. If it complies, it can be driven indefinitely. Methods to check the emission standard of a vehicle: 1. Check the vehicle's environmental protection label: The simplest and most direct method is to look at the vehicle's environmental protection label, which clearly indicates the emission standard on the back. 2. Website inquiry: Visit the website of the Motor Vehicle Exhaust Pollution Supervision and Management Center to check. 3. Vehicle Management Office inquiry: Take the vehicle registration certificate (original or copy) to the local Vehicle Management Office for inquiry. 4. Vehicle manufacturing certificate: For new vehicles, you can refer to the vehicle manufacturing certificate to find the emission standard. However, generally, the certificate is kept at the Vehicle Management Office. Therefore, it is recommended to make a copy for your records when purchasing a new vehicle.
