The Sagitar meets the China 6 emission standards. Here are relevant details about the new Sagitar: 1. Exterior: The all-new Sagitar adopts the latest family design language, appearing more contemporary than its predecessor. A wide hexagonal chrome grille spans the entire front fascia, seamlessly connecting with the polygonal headlight clusters on both sides. The all-new Sagitar is the world's first model to feature exterior ambient lighting, with lighting elements integrated into the front grille, fender side badges, and door handles. 2. Interior: The all-new Sagitar offers dual-tone interior options. The dashboard tilts toward the driver's side, combining avant-garde styling with practicality. Interior materials have been significantly upgraded compared to the previous model, featuring piano black lacquer panels, extensive soft-touch panels, and leather-wrapped door trims that enhance premium detailing. The cabin excels in material quality, craftsmanship, and functionality. The leather-wrapped three-spoke multifunction steering wheel provides excellent grip, with controls integrating entertainment system functions and cruise control settings. The 10.2-inch full LCD instrument cluster offers high playability and information richness with excellent display quality.

I recently researched the emission standards of the Sagitar. The China VI standard is implemented in two phases, with China VIa starting in July 2019 and upgrading to China VIb in 2020. The current Sagitar meets the China VIb emission standard right off the production line, fully complying with the latest environmental requirements. When I bought the car, the salesperson specifically showed me the vehicle's environmental compliance certificate, which clearly indicated the China VIb label. If you're considering buying a used Sagitar, you need to be careful—models before 2018 might still be China V standard, which could face restrictions during transfer. Emission standards mainly depend on engine technology. The Sagitar uses a dual-loop system and a particulate filter to reduce emissions, but these technologies slightly increase maintenance costs.

I just bought a Sagitar last month and specifically confirmed the emission standards before taking delivery. All new Sagitars currently on sale meet the China VI standard, so there's no need to worry about registration issues. I remember carefully checking the Certificate of Conformity - the environmental information page clearly states China VIb. If you're considering Sagitars from different model years, pay special attention as some pre-2020 inventory vehicles might still be China V compliant. I recommend checking the engine compartment nameplate, which indicates the specific emission standard. Actually, China VI vehicles have higher fuel requirements - you must use proper 95-octane gasoline, otherwise the malfunction indicator light may come on.

After the implementation of China's National VI emission standards, the Sagitar underwent emission upgrades. All newly produced models now comply with the stricter National VI-b standard, which can be identified by the 10th letter in the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) indicating 2023 models. Regional variations may exist, with cities like Beijing and Shanghai enforcing stricter regulations as early adopters of National VI. It's important to note that National VI-b is significantly more stringent than the previous National V standard, reducing carbon monoxide emissions by a full 50%. When purchasing, it's advisable to request a copy of the vehicle's environmental compliance certificate from the dealer, which contains the officially certified emission level.

As a long-time Sagitar owner, I've learned that emission standards vary by model year. The Sagitar only started equipping China VI engines after its mid-2019 facelift - earlier models were mostly China V compliant. The 2023 1.5T model currently on display in showrooms meets the latest China VI-b standard, with even the particulate filter location differing from China V versions. I recommend checking the vehicle conformity certificate where the environmental standard confirmation seal is located. After upgrading to China VI, I noticed a slight increase in fuel consumption, but emissions testing did become noticeably easier to pass.
