Beijing will implement the China VI emission standard from January 1, 2020. Here are the relevant details: 1. Timeline: On June 28, the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment officially released the "Early Implementation of China VI Motor Vehicle Emission Standards in Beijing," announcing that starting from July 1, 2019, Beijing will implement the China VI b emission standard for heavy-duty gas vehicles, as well as heavy-duty diesel buses and sanitation vehicles. From January 1, 2020, the China VI b emission standard will be applied to light-duty gasoline vehicles and heavy-duty diesel vehicles. 2. Emissions: Currently, Beijing has over 6.2 million motor vehicles. According to recent surveys, mobile sources account for the largest proportion of total pollutant emissions in Beijing, reaching 45%, with diesel vehicles contributing about 32% and gasoline vehicles about 29%. Therefore, the implementation of the China VI motor vehicle emission standard will effectively reduce pollutant emissions.
