How many years before a new energy commercial vehicle converted to non-commercial use is scrapped?
2 Answers
New energy commercial vehicles converted to non-commercial use are scrapped after 8 years. Definition of scrapping: Vehicle scrapping refers to the process of selling the vehicle to a qualified scrapped motor vehicle recycling and dismantling enterprise for registration, dismantling, and destruction according to regulations. While there is no explicit scrapping period for small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles, other vehicle types do have such requirements. Small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles will be forcibly scrapped when they fail to pass inspections. Purpose of compulsory scrapping: The goal of compulsory vehicle scrapping is to reduce environmental pollution caused by exhaust emissions. Vehicles subject to scrapping generally have excessive exhaust emissions, are too old, or have components that are aged or corroded, making them prone to accidents.
Hey, I'm just an old cabbie with over a decade of experience. Recently converted a new energy commercial vehicle to private use. Thing is, the mandatory scrapping age remains unchanged - still calculated from the original commercial registration date, typically 8 years regardless of ownership change. Why? Commercial vehicles endure extreme daily wear and tear, neither batteries nor mechanical parts can withstand that. I know a guy whose converted vehicle reached its limit just three years later - had to scrap it despite the waste, but safety comes first. New energy vehicles save money, fuel and are eco-friendly, but regulations are strict. We owners must track vehicle age carefully to avoid regrets during incidents.
