[DiCharles]

The Ford Raptor is subject to mandatory scrapping after 15 years. The Ford Raptor is a classic pickup truck model under Ford Motor Company, and in China, it is classified as a truck. Therefore, the Ford Raptor falls under the scrapping policy for trucks, which mandates scrapping after 15 years of use. Mandatory scrapping is different from recommended scrapping. Recommended scrapping suggests scrapping, but if the vehicle still meets the requirements for continued use, it may not be scrapped. However, mandatory scrapping means the vehicle must, without exception, be scrapped. There are four criteria for mandatory scrapping: Reaching the stipulated service life; After repair and adjustment, still failing to meet the national standards for motor vehicle safety technology concerning in-use vehicles; After repair and adjustment or the adoption of control technology, still failing to meet the national standards concerning pollutant emissions or noise for in-use vehicles; Failing to obtain the motor vehicle inspection qualification mark for three consecutive inspection cycles after the expiration of the inspection validity period.
