How often should a new private car be inspected?
1 Answers
For new cars classified as private vehicles, inspections are required every two years, and these inspections do not require on-site testing. According to the "Opinions on Strengthening and Improving Motor Vehicle Inspection Work," all newly manufactured passenger cars and other small and micro passenger vehicles are exempt from safety technical inspections before initial registration. Chinese laws and regulations stipulate the following inspection frequencies: 1. Commercial passenger vehicles: annual inspection for the first 5 years; every 6 months after exceeding 5 years. 2. Trucks and large/medium-sized non-commercial passenger vehicles: annual inspection for the first 10 years; every 6 months after exceeding 10 years. 3. Small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles: biennial inspection for the first 6 years; annual inspection after exceeding 6 years; every 6 months after exceeding 15 years. 4. Motorcycles: biennial inspection for the first 4 years; annual inspection after exceeding 4 years. 5. Tractors and other motor vehicles: annual inspection. Commercial vehicles that pass safety inspections within the prescribed period are exempt from repeated safety technical inspections.
