2 Answers
BYD S6 complies with the China 5 emission standard. Here is some extended information about BYD S6: 1. The BYD S6 is a 5-door, 5-seat SUV with body dimensions of 4810mm in length, 1855mm in width, 1725mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2720mm. 2. The BYD S6 is equipped with a 1.5L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 113 kW at 5200 rpm, and a maximum torque of 240 Nm between 1750 to 3500 rpm. 3. It features MacPherson independent front suspension and multi-link independent rear suspension.
Like many car enthusiasts, I've driven the BYD S6. The emission standard of this car depends on the specific year. Most early models, such as those launched in 2010, comply with the China IV standard. Before buying the car, I specifically consulted a friend and confirmed that China IV means cleaner exhaust emissions, especially in first-tier cities where it helps avoid driving restrictions. However, it's important to note that emission standards vary by production year—older models might drop to China III, while newer ones might reach China V. The one I bought in 2013 clearly had China IV marked on the registration certificate. I recommend checking the registration certificate copy when buying a used car to avoid issues during annual inspections. By the way, emission standards aren't just about environmental protection—they also affect fuel costs. China IV cars have slightly lower fuel consumption on long trips, but don't skimp on maintenance. Regularly replacing the air filter helps maintain stable emissions. Overall, the S6 is quite suitable for family use, so don't worry too much about the standard.
