What is the emission standard for the 2017 Nissan X-Trail?
2 Answers
2017 Nissan X-Trail complies with the China V emission standard. In March 2016, the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly issued the "Announcement on the Implementation of the Fifth Stage Motor Vehicle Emission Standard," which stated that starting from January 1, 2017, the China V standard would be implemented in stages across different regions based on fuel quality upgrades. Therefore, the 2017 Nissan X-Trail meets the China V standard. Relevant information about the China V emission standard is as follows: 1. Compared to the China IV standard, the new standard reduces nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions by 25% for light-duty vehicles and 43% for heavy-duty vehicles. 2. Based on Shanghai's annual vehicle registration volume of approximately 350,000 units, it is estimated that annual NOx emissions could be reduced by around 1,000 tons with the adoption of the new standard. Additionally, the China V emission control level is equivalent to the Euro 5 emission standard currently implemented in Europe.
When I first bought my used 2017 Nissan X-Trail, I was also curious about its emissions. After checking the information, I found it complies with the China V standard. Back in 2017, most new cars had already switched to China V because the country fully implemented the new regulations that year. I've driven the car for over three years, and it has never had any issues passing the annual inspection, with the emissions test going smoothly. The level of emission standards directly affects how difficult it is to transfer ownership in some cities, like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, where environmental regulations are strict—China IV cars can't even enter the city center. When buying a car, don’t just focus on the looks and fuel consumption; make sure to ask the dealer for the environmental compliance certificate or check the records on the 12123 traffic management app. The X-Trail is a reliable car, and its China V emissions make me feel like I’m making a small contribution to the environment—at least the carbon monoxide emissions are much lower. Regular maintenance, like cleaning the catalytic converter, helps maintain emission efficiency.
