What are the differences between green license plates D, F, and G?
2 Answers
The differences between green license plates D, F, and G are as follows: 1. Power source: Green plate D represents pure electric vehicles, which rely solely on electricity as their power source. Green plates F and G are both equipped with an engine and a battery, but G has a plug-in interface for charging, while F cannot be charged and can only continue to be used by replacing the battery. 2. Driving modes: Pure electric vehicles represented by green plate D can only operate in pure electric mode, and the technology is not yet mature. Green plate F vehicles can operate in hybrid mode, reducing fuel consumption with mature technology, but they cannot operate in pure electric mode. Green plate G represents plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, combining the advantages of both, as they can operate in pure electric mode or hybrid mode, extending the driving range.
As a friend who often tinkers with cars, I found that the letters D, F, and G on green license plates actually represent different classifications of new energy vehicles. Firstly, D stands for pure electric vehicles, which are entirely powered by batteries, have no engine, can only be charged, and are super quiet and fuel-efficient. F refers to plug-in hybrid vehicles, which have both an electric motor and an engine, can be charged or fueled, and can rely on the engine for long-distance travel when out of battery. As for G, it is actually quite rare in standard license plates and might be a miswriting. Green plates are mainly designed for D and F vehicles; G might refer to regular hybrid vehicles not covered by green plates or might be entirely unrelated. The key differences are: D vehicles are suitable for short urban commutes with zero emissions and environmental benefits; F vehicles are more flexible with longer ranges; in terms of policy, D vehicles enjoy more subsidies, such as free license plates. In daily use, D vehicles require more frequent charging, while F vehicles have more complex maintenance needs, requiring checks on both fuel and electric systems. In summary, choosing D saves money and is eco-friendly, while F offers more practicality.
