Is the Tharu compliant with China VI emission standards?
2 Answers
The Tharu has models that meet both China V and China VI emission standards. The exhaust emission standards vary depending on the model. Details are as follows: 1. The entire 2019 280TSI series complies with China V emission standards. 2. The entire 2019 330TSI series complies with China VI emission standards. The Volkswagen Tharu is a compact SUV launched by SAIC Volkswagen in October 2018. In terms of powertrain, it is equipped with two engines: a 1.4T and a 2.0T. The 1.4T engine is paired with a DQ200 series seven-speed dry dual-clutch transmission, while the 2.0T engine is paired with a DQ381 series seven-speed wet dual-clutch transmission.
I am the owner of a Volkswagen Tharu, which I purchased last summer. This car fully complies with the China VI emission standards, and I had no issues when registering it. The China VI standard is currently a mandatory requirement in China, aimed at reducing exhaust pollution, with significantly lower emissions of carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides compared to previous standards. When driving it to and from work, I find the engine responsive and the fuel consumption reasonable, averaging around 8 liters per 100 kilometers. The salesperson mentioned that China VI-compliant cars are more environmentally friendly and also avoid future driving restrictions. If you're considering buying a car, this standard is a key point, and I recommend checking the vehicle's compliance certificate or the environmental list from the 4S store to confirm. As a family SUV, the Tharu is spacious and practical, and after nearly a year of driving, I am very satisfied with the overall experience.
