Is the Kia K5 compliant with China's National VI emission standard?
2 Answers
Kia K5 complies with China's National VI emission standard. The National VI standard refers to the sixth-stage national standard for vehicle pollutant emissions, which is established to prevent environmental pollution caused by exhaust emissions from compression-ignition and gas-fueled spark-ignition engine vehicles, protect the ecological environment, and safeguard human health. The Kia K5 is a mid-sized 4-door 5-seater sedan with body dimensions of 4980mm in length, 1860mm in width, 1445mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2900mm. It is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 125kW and a maximum torque of 253Nm.
I just went to test drive the Kia K5, and the salesperson directly confirmed it meets the China 6 emission standard, no doubt about it. Nowadays, new cars on the road basically have to meet the same requirements, otherwise they can't be licensed. I checked some information, and all new models released after 2019 come with China 6 certification, especially the K5 KaiKu series, which fully complies with China 6B. This is quite important for the environment, as exhaust emissions have been significantly reduced, making it more reassuring to drive. If you're thinking of buying one, choosing a model from the last year or two is a safe bet—it's quite powerful, fuel-efficient, and not too noisy. Anyway, when selecting a car, just check the vehicle compliance certificate or ask the dealership, and you can easily confirm. After all, with stricter standards, everyone wants to drive with peace of mind.
