4 Answers
Audi A4 is compliant with China 6 emission standards. The currently available Audi A4L models come in both China 5 and China 6 versions. The Audi A4L is positioned as a mid-size sedan, available in both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive configurations, with dimensions of 4818mm in length, 1843mm in width, and 1432mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2908mm. The 2019 Audi A4L comes standard with: driver and front passenger airbags, side head airbags, tire pressure monitoring system, ABS anti-lock braking, brake force distribution, brake assist, traction control, electronic stability control, hill start assist, and auto hold. In terms of power, the 2019 Audi A4L is equipped with 1.4T and 2.0T engines, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, with a combined fuel consumption of 6.1L/100km as announced by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
When I first bought my Audi A4, I checked its emission standards. As an experienced driver who has driven many cars, I remember Audi acted quite quickly during the transition from China 5 to China 6. China 6 is divided into two phases, a and b. Since 2020, Audi A4 models leaving the factory have basically been upgraded to China 6b, with stricter emissions, making them particularly suitable for big cities' traffic restriction policies. In the past, driving a China 4 car into the city often got me checked, but now with the A4, it's much easier. However, the specific year depends on the compliance certificate. I suggest asking the salesperson to show you the environmental protection list before buying to confirm it's China 6. Audi is reliable in this regard, responding quickly to standard updates, unlike some brands that drag their feet and affect roadworthiness. After driving it for almost a year, the power hasn't dropped, but the exhaust is cleaner, making daily city commutes much smoother.
As an enthusiast who loves researching automotive technology, I've been following the Audi A4's emission system for quite some time. It currently meets the China 6b standard, which is stricter than China 6a – for instance, it requires significantly lower particulate matter in exhaust emissions. Audi achieves this effortlessly with their 2.0T engine paired with optimized catalytic converters, showcasing quite advanced technology. From my research, all A4 models produced after 2021 comply with China 6b, while older China 5 models have been discontinued. When buying new, there's no need to worry about roadworthiness issues, especially in major cities like Beijing and Shanghai where China 6 is the basic requirement. I recommend checking the model year or rear emblem – if it bears the 'China 6' marking, you're good. Audi responds quickly to regulations, maintaining strong environmental innovation that makes driving worry-free and energy-efficient.
I've been driving an Audi A4 for two years now, and it's definitely compliant with the China 6 emission standard, which makes things very hassle-free. The China 6 standard is divided into A and B, and my 2022 model falls under China 6b, making license plate registration and annual inspections straightforward—unlike older cars that required exhaust modifications. When I bought it, the salesperson mentioned that most new cars had already been upgraded and were compliant since 2020. With strict urban driving restrictions now, China 6-compliant cars can enter cities easily—they have low emissions without sacrificing power. I recommend checking the vehicle registration certificate or consulting the DMV to confirm the model. Choosing a brand like Audi is a safe bet—they meet emission standards quickly, so daily driving is worry-free.
