What is China 6?

China 6: It is the latest pollutant emission standard. The following is an introduction to the relevant knowledge about China 6: 1. Types: According to the announcement issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the "China 6" emission standard is divided into two phases for implementation, "China 6(A)" and "China 6(B)". 2. Implementation time: The Ministry of Environmental Protection requires the new China 6(A) and China 6(B) to be implemented from July 1, 2020, and July 1, 2023, respectively. However, regions like Shenzhen, Guangzhou, and Hainan have already proposed the early implementation of the China 6 emission standard for light-duty vehicles from January 1, 2019.

China VI refers to the China National Sixth Stage Emission Standards for Motor Vehicles, abbreviated as China VI. As a long-term observer in the automotive field, I've found it significantly helps reduce environmental pollution. Implemented in phases since 2019, it requires new vehicles to emit far fewer pollutants than under China V, with limits for nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide cut by nearly 50%. It's divided into two phases, China VI a and b, the latter being stricter, pushing automakers to adopt particulate filters and advanced engine technologies. I often remind friends to look for the China VI b label when buying new cars to avoid future inspection hassles; meanwhile, it drives industry innovation and cleaner air, though with higher fuel quality demands. Aligning with global trends, this standard is a crucial step toward sustainable development.

As an environmental volunteer, I strongly support the China 6 emission standards. It mandates the reduction of harmful substances in vehicle exhaust, such as PM2.5 and sulfur dioxide, significantly improving urban air quality. China 6a was piloted in some cities in 2019, and after the nationwide implementation of China 6b in 2021, it has more effectively protected public health by reducing respiratory diseases. For daily driving, I recommend choosing China 6-compliant vehicles because they not only save fuel but also contribute to a greener planet. The implementation of these standards has accelerated the development of new energy vehicles. If everyone participates, we can collectively create a cleaner living environment and alleviate smog issues.

For ordinary car owners, China 6 is a key indicator when purchasing vehicles. It represents cleaner emissions and stricter regulations. The China 6b standard requires vehicles to be equipped with filtration systems, which may slightly increase purchase costs, but in the long run, it reduces pollution and saves fuel expenses. I need to pay attention to using high-quality gasoline, otherwise, the exhaust purifier is prone to malfunction. After the standard was promoted, China 5 vehicles depreciated quickly in the second-hand market, so I prioritize buying new cars. Overall, China 6 makes our driving more environmentally friendly, but regular maintenance and choosing qualified gas stations are also important.
