What is the emission standard for 2009 vehicles?
1 Answers
2009 vehicles are either China III or China IV emission standard. The specific model needs to be checked for accurate determination. Automobile emission standards refer to regulations on the content of harmful gases emitted from vehicle exhaust, including CO (carbon monoxide), HC+NOx (hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides), PM (particulates, soot), etc. China's automobile emission standards are divided into the following five stages: 1. Phase I: GB18352.1-2001 'Limits and Measurement Methods for Emissions from Light-Duty Vehicles (I)', equivalent to EU Directive 93/59/EC, partially referencing technical content from 98/77/EC, equivalent to Euro I. 2. GB18352.2—2001 'Limits and Measurement Methods for Emissions from Light-Duty Vehicles (Ⅱ)', equivalent to EU Directive 96/69/EC, partially referencing technical content from 98/77/EC, equivalent to Euro II. 3. GB18352.3-2005 'Limits and Measurement Methods for Emissions from Light-Duty Vehicles (China III, IV)', partially equivalent to Euro III. 4. Partially equivalent to Euro IV. China's Light-Duty Vehicle Emission Standards III and IV are identical to Euro III and Euro IV in terms of pollutant emission limits, but with some improvements in testing methods and significant differences in regulatory format. 5. GB18352.5-2013 'Limits and Measurement Methods for Emissions from Light-Duty Vehicles (China V)'.
