EV stands for pure electric vehicle, which is one of the two common models of new energy vehicles. One is the pure electric vehicle, abbreviated as EV; the other is the plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, abbreviated as DM. Pure electric vehicles are driven by electric motors, which are powered by the battery pack. The characteristic of EV is that it can only be replenished by charging. Electric vehicles do not have an engine, but instead use an electric motor, battery, on-board charger, storage battery, control device, etc. They use charged battery power instead of gasoline to drive the vehicle. Since they are not equipped with a gasoline engine, they do not emit any exhaust gas during driving. Compared with gasoline vehicles, EVs have lower noise and vibration levels.

What is the emission standard for a 2013 car?

Cars from 2013 are mostly compliant with the National III emission standard, with some models meeting the National IV standard. Below is an introduction to vehicle emission standards: 1. The National III emission standard refers to the third phase of national emission standards. Currently, China has implemented the National VI standard. Cars meeting the National III standard will be subject to mandatory scrapping after the National VI standard is enforced, with the exact timing depending on the implementation schedule of different regions. 2. A car's emission standard can be checked in several ways. The simplest method is to look at the front windshield, where the emission standard is usually indicated behind the environmental label. Alternatively, the vehicle's emission standard can be found in the vehicle certification document, which typically includes this information. 3. Additionally, the emission standard can be roughly estimated based on the vehicle's registration year. Cars registered before 2007 mostly meet the National I standard, those registered after 2008 mostly comply with National III or IV standards, and cars registered in 2014 generally meet the National V standard. China has now entered the National VI emission standard phase, with the National VI standard officially implemented in 2020. The first phase, National VIa, started on July 1, 2020, and the second phase, National VIb, will begin on July 1, 2023.

Is it necessary to display the vehicle insurance sticker?

In 2021, vehicle insurance stickers are no longer required to be displayed; only the annual inspection sticker needs to be affixed. All vehicles driven on the road should place the inspection sticker in a conspicuous position on the upper right corner of the front windshield. Failure to display the annual inspection sticker as required will result in a penalty of 1 demerit point and a fine of 50 yuan when driving on the road. Below is an introduction to vehicle insurance stickers: 1. The electronic insurance policy is a digital document issued by the insurance company to the policyholder, proving the existence of the motor vehicle insurance contract in electronic form, including commercial vehicle insurance electronic policies and compulsory traffic insurance electronic policies. The electronic compulsory traffic insurance sticker has the same legal effect as traditional paper policies. 2. All compulsory traffic insurance stickers have been replaced with electronic versions. After purchasing vehicle insurance, there is no need to go to the insurance company to collect the insurance policy certificate. For claims, only an ID is required for processing, and there is no need to display the compulsory traffic insurance sticker on the windshield. 3. The compulsory traffic insurance stickers are all marked with "Supervised by the China Insurance Regulatory Commission." The policy is brown, with main text printed using internationally advanced red fluorescent anti-counterfeit ink. The horizontal lines under the text are composed of microprinted characters, providing good anti-counterfeit performance. Except for the area reserved for printing the company logo of different operating companies, the policies have uniform specifications and formats nationwide.
