What are the differences between Euro 5 and China 6 vehicle standards?
1 Answers
The differences between Euro 5 and China 6 vehicle standards are: 1. Different carbon monoxide emission standards: Euro 5 requires carbon monoxide emissions below 1.0g per kilometer; China 6 requires carbon monoxide emissions below 0.7g per kilometer. 2. Different maximum particulate emission standards: Euro 5 allows maximum particulate emissions of 0.005g per kilometer; China 6 allows maximum particulate emissions of 0.003g per kilometer. The Euro 5 standard was officially implemented in Europe in 2009 as the fifth-generation emission standard. China 6 refers to the National Sixth Stage Motor Vehicle Pollutant Emission Standard, which is an upgraded version of China 5. Compared to China 5, the emission standards for pollutants are nearly 50% stricter, with the same requirements applying to diesel vehicles.
