What is the lifespan of the Geely Vision X3?
2 Answers
Geely Vision X3 does not have a mandatory scrapping age, only scrapping standards. If the vehicle meets the scrapping standards but the owner wishes to continue using it, no approval is required. After passing inspection, the service life can be extended with biannual inspections. For vehicles over 20 years old, inspections increase to four times annually starting from the 21st year. Below are relevant details: 1. Non-commercial passenger vehicles: Non-commercial passenger vehicles with 9 seats or fewer (including sedans and SUVs) have a service life of 15 years. If the owner wishes to continue using the vehicle after it meets scrapping standards, no approval is needed. After passing inspection, the service life can be extended with biannual inspections. For vehicles over 20 years old, inspections increase to four times annually starting from the 21st year. 2. Tourist passenger vehicles: Tourist passenger vehicles and non-commercial passenger vehicles with more than 9 seats have a service life of 10 years. If the owner wishes to continue using the vehicle after it meets scrapping standards, the current procedures must be followed, but the extension cannot exceed 10 years. Tourist passenger vehicles under extended use require four inspections annually, while non-commercial passenger vehicles with more than 9 seats under extended use require biannual inspections. For vehicles over 15 years old, inspections increase to four times annually starting from the 16th year.
The lifespan of the Geely Vision X3 largely depends on how you drive and maintain it. Generally, it can last over ten years, and with meticulous care, even longer. I’ve driven this car for several years and found its quality quite reliable among domestic brands, though don’t expect it to endure like a luxury car for two decades. To extend its life, regular maintenance is key: change the oil and filters every 5,000 km or so, inspect the braking system periodically, and avoid ignoring issues before hitting the road. Driving habits also matter—minimize rough roads to reduce chassis wear and park in garages to prevent rust from sun and rain. City driving can easily last 8-10 years, while frequent highway use might shorten it slightly. Bottom line: don’t wait for major breakdowns to fix problems; routine upkeep can add years to its service, saving both money and hassle.
