What is China V?
1 Answers
China V in automobiles represents the China 5 emission standard. Below is an introduction to the China 5 standard: 1. Emission Standards: The China 5 standard was implemented nationwide starting from January 1, 2018. It imposes stricter limits on vehicle emissions such as nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter. Compared to the China 4 standard, nitrogen oxide emissions must be reduced by 25%, and additional limits are placed on non-methane hydrocarbons and PM emissions to reduce atmospheric pollution and combat smog. 2. Non-compliant Models Cannot Be Sold in Beijing: The China V emission standard is equivalent to the Euro V standard, which was officially implemented in Europe starting September 1, 2009. In 2012, Beijing planned to implement the China V standard. Once fully implemented, it means that models failing to meet this standard cannot be sold in Beijing. Previously, to control vehicle pollution, Beijing had consistently enforced national standards ahead of schedule. To support the implementation of the China V emission standard, Beijing also further improved fuel quality to align with the China V standard.
