When was the China V emission standard implemented?
1 Answers
The China V emission standard was implemented on January 1, 2017. Here is some information about the China V emission standard: 1. Content of the China V emission standard: The National Fifth Stage Vehicle Pollutant Emission Standard, also known as the "China V Standard," has an emission control level equivalent to the European Union's fifth-stage emission standard currently in effect. The EU has been implementing this standard since 2009, which imposes stricter limits on vehicle emissions such as nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter. From China I to China IV, each upgrade in the standard reduces single-vehicle pollution by 30% to 50%. 2. Purpose of the China V emission standard: Improving environmental quality is an international consensus. It is not acceptable to focus solely on developing the automotive industry while neglecting the environment. For China to become a strong automotive nation, it must not lag behind in technology, and even more importantly, it must not fall behind in environmental protection. The image of an "environmental ambassador" is even more crucial than that of a "strong automotive nation."
