When did the China VI vehicle policy come into effect?

[VanCaleb]

The China VI vehicle policy was implemented on July 1, 2020. Here is relevant information about the China VI vehicle policy: 1. Implementation method: To ensure the automotive industry has sufficient preparation time for model and powertrain upgrades, as well as production readiness, the China VI standard for light-duty vehicles adopts a phased implementation approach, establishing two emission limit schemes—China VIa and China VIb—which were implemented in 2020 and 2023, respectively. 2. Implementation progress: Currently, the industry's production and fuel conditions for standard implementation have been preliminarily met. Many light-duty vehicle manufacturers have largely completed the development of prototype vehicles compliant with the China VI standard. The General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine and the Standardization Administration of China have also approved and released the national standards for China VI gasoline and diesel fuels during the same period.
