What is the difference between six-seater and seven-seater vehicles?
1 Answers
The main difference between six-seater and seven-seater vehicles lies in the annual inspection schedule. The key distinctions are as follows: 1. For sedans with 7 seats or more, the policy remains to conduct an inspection every 2 years. 2. Small passenger vehicles with 6 seats or fewer are exempt from on-site inspections for the first 6 years. 3. Vehicles involved in traffic accidents do not qualify for this exemption and still need to collect the annual inspection sticker from the vehicle management office every 2 years, though they are exempt from the on-site inspection. Only private vehicles with a rated seating capacity of 6 people or fewer are eligible for the inspection exemption policy. Additionally, these vehicles must be non-commercial in nature, whereas most vehicles with 7 seats or more are often used for commercial purposes. Drivers of 7-seater vehicles that have not undergone the annual inspection will not be able to complete the annual review and may face penalties as a result.
