When Will China 6 Standard Vehicles Be Available?
1 Answers
According to relevant national policies, the "China 6 Standard" is divided into two phases: "China 6a" and "China 6b," with nationwide implementation planned for July 1, 2020, and July 1, 2023, respectively. As early as 2019, some automakers began producing China 6-compliant models, and by mid-2020, all automakers ceased production of China 5 models. Below is additional information: 1. Registration Regulations: By 2021, only China 6-compliant models could be registered in all regions of China. While China 5 vehicles were not yet restricted from driving, they were completely banned from sale and could no longer be registered. Automakers, of course, did not sit idle, so all China 5 models were transitioned to China 6 by 2020. 2. Market Vehicle Standards: The "Announcement on Adjusting the Implementation Requirements for the China 6 Emission Standards for Light-Duty Vehicles" indicated that several regions could enjoy a clearance transition period for China 5 vehicles, but the deadline was only until December 31, 2020. This means that all vehicles sold in China by 2021 complied with the China 6 emission standard.
