Is the new Sagitar compliant with China 6 emission standards?
2 Answers
The new Sagitar series all meet China 5 emission standards, not China 6 standards. Here are the specific details: 1. Introduction to automobile emission standards: Automobile emission standards refer to regulations on the content of harmful gases such as carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, and carbon smoke emitted from vehicle exhaust. 2. Introduction to the exterior of the new Sagitar: The front of the new Sagitar maintains the unique style of the Volkswagen brand, appearing more dynamic and stylish. The front grille adopts a three-slat design with added chrome trim, making the vehicle fuller and more refined. The newly integrated xenon headlights and L-shaped LED daytime running lights give the front face of the new Sagitar more visual impact. 3. Introduction to the powertrain configuration of the new Sagitar: The new Sagitar series offers three engines with different performance levels: a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, a 1.4TSI (96kW) engine, and a high-power 1.4TSI (110kW) engine. These are paired with a 5-speed MQ manual transmission, a 6-speed TipTronic automatic transmission, or a 7-speed DSG dual-clutch transmission.
I specifically checked the policy documents, and the new Sagitar now comes with a China 6b label upon leaving the factory. Starting from July 2023, China 6b has been implemented nationwide, making it mandatory for all new vehicles to meet the standard. Popular models like the Sagitar have already complied with it. The EA211 engine has been equipped with a particulate filter, and the exhaust treatment system has also been upgraded. However, the implementation time varies in different cities, so I recommend checking the vehicle conformity certificate for the most accurate information—the emission standard will also be noted in the green book. The standards are updating so fast that cars purchased just a few years ago were still under China 6a. Also, remember to use fuel from reputable gas stations, as low-quality fuel may clog the particulate filter.
