1 Answers
Regulations on the mandatory scrapping period for commercial vehicles: Small and micro-sized taxi passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 8 years, medium-sized taxi passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 10 years, and large-sized taxi passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 12 years. Public bus passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 13 years, other small and micro-sized commercial passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 10 years, and large and medium-sized commercial passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 15 years. Micro-sized commercial trucks have a scrapping period of 8 years, while light and large-sized commercial trucks have a scrapping period of 10 years. Difference between recommended scrapping and mandatory scrapping: Recommended scrapping suggests scrapping, but if the vehicle still meets the requirements for continued use, it may not be scrapped. Mandatory scrapping means the vehicle must, without exception, be scrapped. There are four criteria for mandatory scrapping: Reaching the stipulated service life; After repair and adjustment, still failing to meet the national standards for in-use vehicle safety technical requirements; After repair and adjustment or the adoption of control technology, still failing to meet national standards for in-use vehicle requirements regarding atmospheric pollutant emissions or noise; Failing to obtain the motor vehicle inspection qualification mark for three consecutive inspection cycles after the expiration of the inspection validity period.
