What do the letters D and F mean in new energy vehicle license plates?
1 Answers
License plates starting with D represent pure electric small new energy vehicles, while those starting with F represent non-pure electric small new energy vehicles (including plug-in hybrids and fuel cell vehicles). License plates ending with D represent pure electric large new energy vehicles, and those ending with F represent non-pure electric large new energy vehicles (including plug-in hybrids and fuel cell vehicles). Here are specific details about new energy vehicle license plates: Color: Small new energy vehicles use gradient green, while large new energy trucks use a yellow-green combination. Both symbolize green, environmental protection, and technology. Additional digit: The number of digits on green license plates has increased from 5 to 6, using only two letters: D and F. D stands for pure electric, and F stands for hybrid. Eliminating fake plates: New license plates employ advanced technology. The production, timing, and recipient of each plate can be traced, with nationwide unified management and distribution. "Privileges": Taking Chengdu as an example: Vehicles with green license plates are exempt from traffic restrictions based on license plate endings; they enjoy two hours of free parking in many lots; and delivery vehicles with green plates can operate at any time.
