How Many Years and Kilometers Can a Car Be Driven?
1 Answers
According to the new regulations on vehicle scrapping age in 2021, the driving age limit for non-commercial cars has been abolished, while the mileage limit for private cars has been set at 600,000 kilometers. This means a car can be driven up to 600,000 kilometers, and the number of years depends on the annual mileage calculation. The new regulations for vehicle scrapping age in 2021 are as follows: 1. Mileage: Although there is no scrapping age for non-commercial 5-seater cars and 7-seater SUVs, once the mileage reaches 600,000 kilometers, the vehicle will be forcibly scrapped. Generally, private cars are driven for a maximum of 15 years, with an annual mileage of around 20,000 kilometers, so this scrapping mileage will not affect private car owners. 2. Vehicles that fail or do not undergo annual inspections on time: The current annual inspection regulations for private cars are: new cars are exempt from inspection for the first 6 years, inspections are required every 2 years from 6 to 10 years, once a year from 10 to 15 years, and twice a year for cars over 15 years old. If a vehicle does not undergo an annual inspection or fails the inspection, it will be forcibly scrapped. 3. Vehicles that exceed emission standards: Emission standards for motor vehicles are becoming increasingly strict, and the China 6 standard was introduced in 2021. Each new emission standard means a batch of older vehicles will be phased out.
