What does the car activation date refer to?

[VonAaliyah]

Activation date refers to the launch date of the vehicle. Below is relevant information: 1. Main difference between production date and activation date: For the most advanced automakers using modern production models, these two concepts are essentially the same definition with no significant difference. If forced to distinguish, the former represents the exact time when the vehicle was manufactured, while the latter indicates when the vehicle enters the market from the production line for sales. 2. Whole vehicle manufacturing date: All multinational automotive giants follow the principle of minimum origin pricing for vehicle production, with global configuration. The date typically seen on the vehicle body and certificate is generally the whole vehicle manufacturing date (production date).
