How many years are left for a 2009 car to be scrapped?

Under the previous 15-year scrappage regulation, a 2009 car would be scrapped in 2024. However, the current policy determines scrappage based on mileage, with a maximum limit of 600,000 kilometers. Additional details are as follows: Annual inspection: Cars still in use after 20 years must undergo inspections four times a year. According to regulations, the typical service life of a car is around 15 years. The actual lifespan depends on usage conditions. Generally, some vehicles, such as 5-seat family cars, 7-seat SUVs, and compact cars, have no mandatory scrappage period. However, once a vehicle reaches 600,000 kilometers, the government will guide owners to scrap it. For cars older than 15 years but with mileage under 600,000 km, inspections are required every six months. If the car passes inspection, it can continue to be driven; otherwise, it will be forcibly scrapped. Failing to scrap a vehicle that should be retired may affect driver's license renewal or annual vehicle inspection.
