How many years can a National IV emission standard vehicle be driven?

[DelXavier]

As long as the vehicle is in good condition, a National IV standard vehicle can be driven indefinitely. However, some cities may impose driving restrictions on National IV vehicles. Below are the relevant details: 1. Scrap policy: There are clear regulations that do not set a mandatory scrap period for private passenger vehicles, only a guideline for scrapping after reaching 600,000 kilometers. Light and heavy-duty trucks have a mandatory scrap period of 10 years, but this can be extended up to 5 years, meaning the maximum mandatory scrap period for National IV trucks is 15 years. 2. Implementation time of National IV emission standard: The National IV emission standard was implemented starting from July 1, 2010, until July 1, 2017, when the National V standard was fully implemented nationwide. Therefore, vehicles produced between 2011 and 2017 are mostly compliant with the National IV emission standard.
