Is the 2019 Sylphy compliant with China 6 emission standards?
2 Answers
The 2019 Sylphy is available in both China 5 and China 6 emission versions. Among them, the following five models meet the China 6 standard: 1.6XE manual comfort version, 1.6XE CVT comfort version, 1.6XL manual luxury version, 1.6XV CVT intelligent connected premium version, and 1.6XV CVT intelligent connected premium version. Differences between China 5 and China 6: The China 6 standard's limit requirements are approximately 40% to 50% stricter than China 5. The China 6 emission standard is significantly lower than China 5. Achieving the China 6 standard requires comprehensive optimization, which means improvements through the integrated enhancement of the engine + PDF + particulate filter, etc. China 6 adopts a fuel-neutral principle, meaning that regardless of the type of fuel used, the emission limits are the same. During the China 5 phase, the emission standards for diesel and gasoline engines were different. Compared to China 5, China 6 reduces nitrogen oxide emissions by 77% and particulate matter by 67%, introduces a limit requirement for particle number (PN), and tightens the durability requirements for emission control devices and the related requirements for on-board diagnostic systems (OBD). The China 6A phase emission standard is basically consistent with China 5, only adopting the strictest values from the China 5 emission requirements. For example, China 5 requires carbon monoxide emissions from gasoline vehicles not to exceed 1g/km and diesel vehicles not to exceed 0.5g/km, while in China 6A, both vehicles' carbon monoxide emissions must not exceed 0.5g/km. Introduction to the Sylphy model: The 2019 Sylphy has a body length, width, and height of 4631mm, 1760mm, and 1503mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2700mm and a body weight of 1188kg. It features a MacPherson independent front suspension and a torsion beam non-independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.6L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 126ps, a maximum torque of 168Nm, and a maximum power of 93kW, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
The 2019 Sylphy typically meets the China 6 emission standard, which is related to China's automotive environmental regulations. As someone who frequently follows Nissan models, I know that in 2019, the Sylphy upgraded its engine system to comply with the new regulations, with most batches achieving the China 6a level. After the emission standard upgrade, the car's exhaust purification became more efficient, reducing harmful substances like nitrogen oxides, and fuel consumption was also optimized during driving. For urban commuting, lower emissions are more environmentally friendly. I recommend that owners check the yellow environmental label or nameplate information on the car for details—if it says "China VI," you can rest assured. As a family sedan, the Sylphy is highly reliable, and the China 6 version does not affect performance; instead, it makes second-hand transactions smoother, especially in large cities with restricted zones. Expanding on the environmental trend, it's now a priority to look for China 6 when buying a car to avoid obsolescence like China 5. Additionally, Nissan's CVT transmission, combined with emission reduction technology, offers smoother performance and is worthy of long-term trust.
