What is the difference between commercial-to-private vehicles and private cars?

[AaronLynn]

Commercial-to-private vehicles and private cars mainly differ in terms of scrapping age limits and annual inspection periods. Commercial-to-private vehicles primarily refer to retired taxis converted to local license plates. After conversion, these vehicles still have a usage period of 8 years, meaning they are mandatorily scrapped 8 years from the date of manufacture without further annual inspections or extended scrapping periods. In contrast, private cars have no usage age limit and are only mandatorily scrapped when they reach the maximum mileage of 600,000 kilometers. For commercial-to-private sedans, within 5 years, they require annual inspections once a year; after exceeding 5 years, inspections are required every 6 months. Private cars are generally exempt from inspections for the first 6 years, but owners must apply for an inspection compliance mark at designated vehicle management offices, motor vehicle registration service stations, or traffic police squadrons within specified periods and affix it to the upper right corner of the front windshield.
