What is the emission standard for a 2016 car?
1 Answers
A 2016 car may comply with either the China IV or China V emission standards. Below is relevant information about 2016 cars and emission standards: 1. Emission standards for 2016 cars: From July 2010 to January 2018, all regions in China implemented the China IV emission standard. Therefore, a 2016 car could be either China IV or China V compliant, as the China V standard was nationally enforced starting January 1, 2017, though some cities adopted it earlier. Car owners can identify their vehicle's emission standard through the invoice, environmental label, or vehicle registration certificate. 2. Information about emission standards: The 'China [X]' emission standard refers to the national stage X motor vehicle pollutant emission standard. The China IV standard has been the longest-implemented standard to date, lasting seven years. Currently, the China VI standard is gradually being introduced. The implementation of the China VI standard has led to China III vehicles facing scrappage, while China V used cars depreciate rapidly due to emission standard changes. On the other hand, stricter emission standards certainly help mitigate air pollution. Moreover, the rapid updates and stringent requirements of emission standards have significantly accelerated the development of new energy vehicles.
