How much longer can China IV vehicles be driven?

[Eddie]

At least five years without driving restrictions. Additional information: 1. There will always be a grace period before new policies take effect. After China VI standards are implemented, it will take at least 3 years before driving restrictions are introduced, and according to convention, these should target China III vehicles first. China IV vehicles can still be driven for several more years without issues. 2. China IV and China V vehicles account for nearly 70% of the national vehicle fleet. With China VI vehicles alone unable to meet existing demand, the government won't implement driving restrictions for China IV vehicles in the short term. 3. By the time the government considers mandatory measures for China V and China IV vehicles, these cars will have nearly reached their service life anyway. The average lifespan of a vehicle is only about ten years, so after a decade, these vehicles should naturally be replaced.
