When is the implementation time of China VI emission standards in Hunan Province?

Hunan Province follows the timeline issued by the national government. The official implementation date for China VI-A standards is July 1, 2020, while the China VI-B standards will officially take effect on July 1, 2023. Below is relevant information: 1. The China VI emission standards, officially named "National Sixth Stage Emission Standards for Motor Vehicles," were established to enforce environmental protection laws, reduce and prevent vehicle exhaust pollution, protect the ecological environment, and ensure public health. 2. Currently, the national government divides the "China VI standards" into two phases: "China VI-A" and "China VI-B." China VI-A serves as a transitional phase to China VI-B, imposing stricter emission requirements for carbon monoxide, non-methane hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, and PM (particulate matter).
I remember the China VI emission standards in Hunan Province were implemented in phases, which has been a major concern for many car owners on the road. The China VI standards for light-duty vehicles took effect on July 1, 2020, requiring all newly registered gasoline vehicles to comply. At that time, many 4S dealerships rushed to clear their inventory, leading to a significant price drop for China V vehicles. However, heavy-duty diesel vehicles were given a grace period, with mandatory enforcement starting from July 2021. If you're buying a car recently, remember to check the environmental compliance label that comes with the vehicle—it must clearly state 'China VI' to be eligible for registration. Last year, I encountered an issue with a stock vehicle when helping my cousin pick up his car, and it was only resolved after verifying the production date. Don't take the environmental compliance label lightly, as failing the annual inspection can be troublesome.
