What is the emission standard of the Boyue vehicle?
3 Answers
The Boyue vehicle complies with the China 5 emission standard, which is the fifth stage national standard for motor vehicle pollutant emissions, also known as "China 5 standard". The emission control level of the China 5 standard is equivalent to the fifth stage emission standard currently implemented in Europe. The Boyue is positioned as an SUV model, with body dimensions of 4519mm in length, 1831mm in width, and 1694mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2670mm. In terms of exterior design, the Boyue presents a refined and elegant image, incorporating many Chinese elements, such as the water ripple grille, the jade Ruyi-shaped front fog lamp chrome trim, the main instrument panel inspired by the West Lake arch bridge, and the center console design derived from Chinese calligraphy.
I'm an ordinary Boyue owner. My car was purchased in 2020, and it was confirmed to meet the China 6 emission standard due to the new policy at that time. The emission standard is quite important, especially in restricted zones of big cities where China 6 vehicles can enter and exit freely, unlike China 5 vehicles which face restrictions. When buying the car, I specifically checked the records on the vehicle license and verified it by entering the VIN on Geely's official website. Additionally, China 6 vehicles have cleaner exhaust treatment, faster engine response, and slightly reduced fuel consumption. There are differences in Boyue models across different years. Most 2016 to 2018 models are China 5, while those after 2019 are mostly China 6. So, when buying used, check the production date to avoid outdated models. My China 6 version has been reliable overall, with simple maintenance and no major issues. In summary, choosing a China 6 Boyue is environmentally friendly and cost-saving.
I've been in the auto repair industry for several years and have handled many Boyue emission standards. Whether it's China 5 or China 6 depends on the production year. For example, pre-2018 older models are mostly China 5, while post-2019 new models are almost all upgraded to China 6. The China 6 system uses updated three-way catalytic converter technology with better exhaust filtration, but you need to be careful when handling parts during repairs—don't disassemble them randomly. When changing the oil, check the ECU data to determine if the standard is compliant. China 5 vehicles face registration restrictions in some cities and have lower resale values. So my advice to car owners is to prioritize China 6 models—they're more fuel-efficient, eco-friendly, and much easier to maintain. You can usually confirm the standard by checking the nameplate or environmental label.
