Where does the license plate Su C belong to?
4 Answers
Su C license plates belong to Xuzhou City, Jiangsu Province. Below is some information about license plates: 1. License plates, also known as vehicle registration plates, are plates hung on the front and rear of a vehicle, usually made of aluminum, sheet iron, plastic, or paper, with the vehicle's registration number, registration area, or other relevant information engraved on them. 2. License plates serve as a numbering and information registration system for vehicles, with the main function of identifying the vehicle's area of registration and allowing the vehicle's owner and registration details to be traced based on the plate number. 3. License plates are the driving credentials issued to motor vehicles by the local vehicle management office.
I've been driving for over 20 years and have seen plenty of license plates. The Su C plates are from Xuzhou, Jiangsu, where the C represents the Xuzhou region. All license plates in Jiangsu Province start with the character 'Su', with Nanjing being Su A, Wuxi Su B, and Xuzhou Su C, and so on. There's an interesting tidbit: after Su D for Changzhou, they skipped Su E and went straight to Su F (Nantong), reportedly because Su E was reserved for special purposes. Nowadays, when you see a blue background with white characters Su C plate on the road, you know it's from Xuzhou. The same goes for new energy vehicles with green plates and letters D/F, like Su CD at the beginning of the green plate, which still indicates Xuzhou.
Last time when I was on a road trip with friends and passed through Xuzhou, I specifically noticed the local license plates. Su C is the exclusive code for Xuzhou, as every prefecture-level city in Jiangsu has a fixed letter code, like Nanjing is Su A, and Lianyungang is Su G. On the streets of Xuzhou, you can see a large number of vehicles with Su C license plates, from private cars to taxis, all bearing this identifier. Interestingly, new energy vehicle license plates also follow this rule. In green plates like Su CD12345, the Su C before the D still represents Xuzhou.
I just checked the information and confirmed: Su C belongs to Xuzhou. The license plate arrangement in Jiangsu is quite interesting. The provincial capital Nanjing is Su A, followed by the administrative division order, such as Wuxi Su B, Xuzhou Su C, Changzhou Su D, and so on. In Xuzhou, locally purchased cars are all registered with Su C license plates, and surrounding districts and counties like Jiawang and Peixian also use this plate. If you see a green new energy vehicle with Su CD, the C still represents the Xuzhou area, and D stands for pure electric vehicle.
