When will Shanxi implement the China 6 emission standard?

Shanxi implemented the China 6 emission standard on July 1, 2019. Below is relevant information about China 6: 1. Starting from July 1, 2019, new vehicle registrations that do not meet the notification requirements will not be processed by the traffic management department of the public security authorities. 2. Sales enterprises should organize and arrange sales plans in advance, clearly display the relevant content of this notice at their business premises, fulfill the obligation to inform purchasers of this notice, and provide written reminders when signing sales contracts with purchasers. 3. Before July 1, 2019 (excluding), for light-duty vehicles and heavy-duty diesel vehicles for urban use that have been sold and issued a unified motor vehicle sales invoice but have not yet completed registration under the China 5 emission standard, the traffic management department of the public security authorities may process the registration.

As someone who has been driving for a long time, Shanxi Province implemented the National 6 emission standard as early as July 1, 2019, rolling it out alongside provinces like Beijing and Tianjin, mainly to reduce tailpipe pollution. When I bought my car, I paid special attention to the emission label. Now, the National 6b standard has become widespread, with nationwide enforcement starting in July 2023, but for Shanxi car owners, it took effect in 2019. I recommend checking the vehicle's emission certificate before buying a car to avoid purchasing older models that might cause issues during annual inspections. Environmental policies have been advancing quickly, and the air quality has indeed improved, though some older cars in the used car market have depreciated. Remember to maintain your car regularly—keeping emissions compliant can also save you some fuel costs.

I learned from the automotive circle that the implementation date of China 6 in Shanxi was July 1, 2019. When the policy came out, I immediately switched to a China 6-compliant car, and the exhaust fumes felt much lighter. Now with the stricter China 6b standard, new cars must be equipped with high-performance catalytic converters. If you drive your own car, pay attention to emission control and don’t skimp on daily maintenance. The improvement in air quality is noticeable, and weekend outings feel much fresher. Remember to get your old car’s emissions tested at a 4S shop to avoid exceeding the standard and causing trouble.

For those concerned about vehicle emissions, I would like to remind you that Shanxi implemented China 6 emission standards as early as July 2019. The policy aims to protect the environment and reduce smog. It is recommended to choose vehicles with lower emissions when purchasing, and pay attention to the catalytic converter during maintenance. After more than two years of implementation, air quality has significantly improved.
