What are new energy vehicles called in Japan?
1 Answers
New energy vehicles are also referred to as new energy vehicles in Japan. These primarily include pure electric vehicles, while in China, new energy vehicles also encompass plug-in hybrid vehicles. Pure electric vehicles offer numerous advantages compared to internal combustion engine vehicles. They rely on electric motors to propel the vehicle forward, and the power output method of electric motors differs from that of conventional gasoline and diesel engines. Relevant information about automotive emission standards is as follows: 1. Introduction: Automotive emission standards refer to regulations on the content of harmful gases emitted from vehicle exhaust, such as CO (carbon monoxide), HC+NOx (hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides), and PM (particulate matter, soot). 2. Implementation: Starting from January 1, 2004, Beijing upgraded its vehicle emission standards from Euro I to Euro II. By 2008, the Euro III standard was officially implemented.
