What does China V vehicle displacement mean?
2 Answers
China V vehicle displacement refers to the National Fifth Stage Emission Standards for motor vehicle pollutants, with emission control levels equivalent to the Euro 5 emission standards currently implemented in Europe. China V imposes more stringent restrictions on motor vehicle emissions such as nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter. From China I to China VI, each upgrade in standards reduces vehicle pollution by 30% to 50%. The China emission standard (e.g., China IV, China V) indicates the total emission level of a vehicle's exhaust pollutants - the higher the number, the higher the standard, and correspondingly the lower the engine emissions. Vehicle emission pollutants include: carbon dioxide, sulfides, nitrogen oxides, fluorochlorohydrocarbons, non-methane total hydrocarbons, etc.
The China 5 emission standard sounds quite impressive, doesn't it? Actually, it's just the latest regulation set by the state for vehicle exhaust emissions, belonging to the fifth phase. Last year when I was doing automotive modifications, I came across many China 5 vehicles. They are strictly controlled, with pollutants like carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons in the exhaust having to be tightly regulated. This standard was uniformly implemented nationwide starting in 2017, so friends buying new cars must check if it complies. The benefit is that there's less pollution when we drive, which is good for the environment! In the used car market now, China 5 vehicles are clearly selling much better. I know a few car dealers who say they make tens of thousands more selling China 5 cars compared to China 4 ones.
