What are the green license plate hybrid models?
2 Answers
Hybrid models eligible for green license plates include: BYD Yuan EV, Geely Borui GE New Energy, GAC Trumpchi GS4 New Energy, Volkswagen Golf New Energy, Volvo S90, Toyota Corolla Twin Engine E+, Volkswagen Passat New Energy, etc. Currently, only pure electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, and fuel cell vehicles can apply for green license plates. Taking the Volvo S90 as an example, it is a luxury sedan under the Volvo brand. In terms of body dimensions, the Volvo S90 measures 5090mm in length, 1879mm in width, 1450mm in height, and has a wheelbase of 3061mm.
In China, hybrid vehicles eligible for green license plates must be plug-in hybrids with a pure electric range exceeding 50 kilometers. Based on my recent market research, BYD's DM-i series is the most popular, with models like the Qin PLUS DM-i and Song PLUS DM-i offering over 100 kilometers of pure electric range plus gasoline backup – many of my friends have purchased these. Geely's Galaxy series is also trending, with the Galaxy L7 featuring standard fast charging that reaches 80% capacity in just half an hour. For those with sufficient budget, Li Auto is worth considering – its range-extended hybrids also qualify for green plates, with the Li L9 being particularly practical for family trips. Great Wall Motors recently launched the Blue Mountain DHT-PHEV, which boasts spacious interiors and strong performance, offering high cost-effectiveness in the 300,000+ RMB price range.
