What vehicles can be driven with an E-class license?
2 Answers
An E-class license allows you to drive ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles with an engine displacement exceeding 50ml or a maximum design speed exceeding 50km/h. Additional relevant information is as follows: 1. D-class and E-class licenses are motorcycle driving licenses, where the D-class license is for three-wheeled motorcycles. A D-class license permits driving E-class and F-class motorcycle models, while an E-class license permits driving F-class motorcycle models. 2. China's driving license categories include: A-class, B-class, C-class, D-class, E-class, F-class, M-class, N-class, and P-class. Among these, A-class and C-class are further divided into three subcategories each, and B-class is divided into two subcategories. Specifically, C1 is for manual transmission small vehicles, C2 is for automatic transmission small vehicles, and C4 covers small trucks, three-wheeled motorcycles, four-wheel agricultural transport vehicles, and three-wheel agricultural transport vehicles, among other permitted vehicle types.
I got my Class E license last year and was super excited when I first received it because it means I can legally ride various types of motorcycles. Specifically, the Class E license allows you to ride regular two-wheeled motorcycles and three-wheeled motorcycles with an engine displacement above 50ml, such as those common 125cc scooters on the streets or delivery trikes. However, it's important to note that it doesn't permit driving cars—you'd need a Class C license or higher for that. The licensing process involves studying traffic rules and practical riding exercises, and the test can be a bit challenging, but once you master it, riding becomes smooth and practical for daily commutes or weekend joyrides. I think it's a great option for young people—cost-effective, stylish, and fuel-efficient—but always remember to wear a helmet and follow traffic rules, safety first.
