2 Answers
Here is an introduction to the new style of motor vehicle license plates: 1. New license plates: The new plates feature blue, yellow, and red separators. The left side displays two characters representing information like "Yue A," while the right side has been expanded from five digits to six digits, similar to current new energy vehicle plates. 2. Small vehicle license plates: There are two different design schemes. One consists of multiple horizontal gradient lines in a blue gradient style. 3. White background with black characters: Another new plate design features a white background with black characters, but the bottom of the plate has a dark blue base. This new plate still offers blue, yellow, and red separators, but the separator is positioned above the second digit, and the forms on either side of the separator are significantly different.
New vehicle license plates, I noticed some changes while driving. The electric vehicle plates have been switched to green background with white characters, which looks quite eye-catching, while gasoline vehicles still have the classic blue background with white characters. The overall design is more streamlined, with the same dimensions as before, but the character arrangement is clearer. The first letter represents the region, for example, 'A' stands for Beijing. Why the change? Mainly to promote electric vehicles—more green plates on the road make it easy to spot new energy vehicles at a glance. I’ve tried it myself, and it’s much quicker to find my car in a parking lot. I’ve also heard there are upgraded anti-counterfeiting features, with finer watermarks, reducing fake plates. The downside is that some older models have to wait until the transition period ends to get new plates, but as long as they’re compliant, safety has improved significantly. Overall, this change is quite practical and supports eco-friendly travel.
