What does China V mean?
1 Answers
China V refers to the National Fifth Stage Emission Standards for motor vehicle pollutants, also known as the "China V Standard". The emission control level of the China V Standard is equivalent to the Euro 5 emission standard currently implemented in Europe. The European Union has been enforcing this standard since 2009, which imposes stricter limits on motor vehicle emissions such as nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter. From China I to China IV, each upgrade in the standard reduces vehicle pollution by 30% to 50%. Here is some related information: 1. Implementation Time: The China V Standard was implemented nationwide on January 1, 2017. Cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Nanjing, and some cities in Guangdong have already started enforcing the China V Standard. 2. Emission Standards: These are tailpipe emission standards set by environmental authorities. The higher the number, the stricter the standard, meaning that higher numbers correspond to relatively lower pollution levels from tailpipe emissions.
