What are the new regulations for vehicle inspections for cars aged 6 to 10 years?

[RileyLee]

The new regulations clearly specify and relax the appearance inspection requirements for vehicles. During the appearance inspection, modifications to the grille, pedals, roof rack, bumper, and rims are now permitted. Below are the specific details: 1. Additional inspection step: Private vehicles will now include a 'safety defect recall' check in the online inspection process. If a vehicle has safety issues and is subject to a manufacturer recall, the inspection staff will inform the owner about the recall. 2. Exemption scope: The exemption scope for motor vehicles has been expanded from non-commercial small and mini passenger vehicles with 6 seats or fewer within 6 years to include those with 7-9 seats. Starting from November 20, non-commercial small and mini passenger vehicles under 6 years old with 7-9 seats will be eligible for the exemption policy. 3. Inspection cycle: Exempt vehicles can skip the on-site inspection for the first 6 years, only requiring biennial paperwork. For vehicles aged 6-10 years, the inspection was previously annual but has now been changed to biennial. This means exempt vehicles will undergo biennial inspections within 10 years, with only the 6th and 8th years requiring on-site inspections.
