In which year were China V vehicles launched?
2 Answers
Below is an introduction to the launch timeline of China V vehicles: China V emission standard vehicles generally began no earlier than 2012. China V is an emission standard that is more stringent than China IV, requiring fewer emission pollutants, making it more environmentally friendly. Below is relevant information about the China V standard: 1. From the vehicle's perspective: The China V emission standard mainly involves a more complex emission control system, leading to increased costs. 2. For vehicle owners: There is no significant difference, although some models may experience slightly reduced power performance. The China V vehicle emission standard primarily specifies HC emission values below 0.1g/km, CO emission values below 1.0g/km, NOx emission values below 0.06g/km, with PM requirements below 0.005g/km.
I remember the China 5 emission standards were fully implemented in 2017, when all new vehicle sales nationwide had to comply with this standard. As a long-time car enthusiast, I've always followed these policy changes closely. Actually, cities like Beijing and Shanghai piloted it back in 2013, but the nationwide rollout happened in early 2017. News reports at the time said this standard could significantly reduce sulfur dioxide and particulate emissions, which was crucial for environmental protection. Automakers started launching new models meeting the standard as early as late 2016 - I saw many upgraded engines and exhaust systems at auto shows. For new car buyers, 2017 was a watershed year, and prices for China 4 standard used cars dropped considerably in the secondhand market. I believe this policy drove technological advancement - now we already have China 6 standards, but the launch of China 5 was truly a landmark event that impacted the entire industry.
