What to Do with China 5 Vehicles After the Implementation of China 6?
2 Answers
After the implementation of China 6, there are several specific ways to handle China 5 vehicles. 1. Sell: Use strategies such as cross-regional sales and low prices to sell to consumers. 2. Replace the engine: If China 5 vehicles are banned nationwide, they can be returned to the factory to directly replace the engine with a China 6-compliant one. The removed China 5 engines can be used as spare parts for existing China 5 vehicles in the market. Below is some extended information about China 5 and China 6: 1. China 5: China 5 refers to the fifth stage of motor vehicle pollutant emission standards, with emission control levels equivalent to the European Union's fifth stage emission standards currently in effect. 2. China 6: China 6 refers to the sixth stage of national motor vehicle pollutant emission standards. On December 23, 2016, the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine issued the 'Limits and Measurement Methods for Emissions from Light-duty Vehicles (China 6),' which came into effect on July 1, 2020.
My National V emission standard car is running smoothly now. Although the policy has changed and the National VI standard has been implemented, the car can still be used as long as it passes the annual inspection. However, some big cities like Beijing and Shanghai have started restricting its access, making it a bit troublesome to enter the city center. The resale value has dropped significantly; my friend lost about ten thousand yuan when selling it last year, compared to what he paid when buying it. I suggest maintaining it well, frequently replacing the filters to ensure the exhaust meets standards, and using it for a few more years if possible. When it's time to really change cars, consider new energy vehicles, as charging stations are becoming more and more convenient. Overall, policies are policies, and the impact on personal car use is not significant. Just drive with peace of mind, no need to rush into selling at a loss.
