What is the difference between license plates Su E and Su U?
2 Answers
License plates Su E and Su U have no difference, both are license plates from Suzhou. The license plate codes for various regions in Jiangsu Province are as follows: Su A is Nanjing, Su B is Wuxi, Su C is Xuzhou, Su D is Changzhou, Su F is Nantong, Su G is Lianyungang, Su H is Huaian, Su J is Yancheng, Su K is Yangzhou, Su L is Zhenjiang, Su M is Taizhou, Su N is Suqian, and Su U is an additional code for Suzhou. Suzhou is a national historical and cultural city and a scenic tourist city, as well as a national high-tech industrial base. It is located in the southeast of Jiangsu Province, in the middle of the Yangtze River Delta, bordering Shanghai to the east, Jiaxing to the south, Taihu Lake to the west, and the Yangtze River to the north.
I just learned from a short video yesterday that both Su E and Su U are license plates from Suzhou. As someone in logistics who frequently travels to Jiangsu, I remember that Suzhou initially only had license plates starting with Su E. Later in 2018, due to the sheer number of vehicles running out of license plates, the Su U series was added. Nowadays, you can see both Su E and Su U vehicles on the road, and there's actually no difference in their driving permissions—both can travel freely within Suzhou city. Some friends from other cities mistakenly think Su U belongs to another city, which is quite a misunderstanding. By the way, it's the Shanghai Hu C license plate that has real restrictions.
