Is There a Scrap Age Limit for Family Cars?

[Penny]

For private passenger vehicles, including 5-seat family cars and 7-seat SUVs that are not used for commercial purposes, there is no mandatory retirement age. However, when the mileage reaches 600,000 kilometers, the government will recommend scrapping the vehicle. In addition to the above-mentioned vehicles, small and mini non-commercial passenger vehicles, large non-commercial cars, and wheeled special machinery vehicles also have no usage period restrictions. Vehicle scrapping process: 1. The owner of the car applying for scrapping and renewal must fill out an "Application Form for Vehicle Modification, Transfer, Alteration, Suspension, or Scrapping" and affix their seal. 2. Apply at the registration acceptance counter. For vehicles that have reached the scrapping age, a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice" will be issued. For vehicles that have not reached the scrapping age but are deemed to meet the scrapping standards after inspection, a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice" will also be issued. 3. The owner can choose a qualified recycling company to dismantle the vehicle with the "Notice". 4. The recycling company will dismantle the vehicle and take photos after verifying the "Notice". The engine must be separated from the vehicle, the engine block must be broken, and the frame (chassis) must be cut. 5. The owner must submit the "Modification Form", "XX Province Vehicle Renewal Technical Assessment Form", "Scrapped Vehicle Recycling Certificate", and photos of the dismantled vehicle to the inspection counter. After verification and signing, the license plates will be reclaimed, and the scrapping registration will be processed according to regulations.
