Whether a vehicle meets China 6 standards can be checked in the accompanying environmental information document. Below is relevant information about vehicle emission standard queries: Methods to check vehicle emission standards: The vehicle's nameplate will indicate the complete vehicle model number. Visit the Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Website, enter the fuzzy condition (complete vehicle model number) in the input box on the webpage, input the correct verification code, then click search to view the vehicle's relevant information, including emission standards. How to locate the vehicle nameplate: Generally, there is a nameplate below the front passenger door. Related labels displaying the complete vehicle model number may also be found in these locations: lower left corner of the windshield, driver's door pillar, left side of the instrument panel, engine compartment, door sticker, door frame base, or inside the glove compartment.
To find out if your car meets China 6 emission standards, the first thing I think of is checking the vehicle registration certificate or the driving license. I remember during my last annual inspection, I specifically looked through the driving license, which has an emission standard section that usually clearly indicates China 6, China 5, and so on. If it's not indicated there, check the environmental inspection report, as the inspection station provides a detailed list. China 6 vehicles are much more environmentally friendly than older standards, reducing emissions by over 30%, which greatly helps urban air quality. Some cities even offer exemption from traffic restrictions for China 6 vehicles, so if you find out your car is China 6, driving becomes more pleasant. Don't be careless—driving a vehicle with the wrong emission standard into a restricted zone can result in hefty fines. I make it a habit to regularly check my documents to ensure nothing is overlooked.
