Where is the Su Z license plate from?

There is no Su Z license plate. More information about license plates is as follows: 1. License plates are the numbering and information registration for vehicles. Main function: The license plate can indicate the region to which the vehicle belongs, and the vehicle owner and registration information can also be found based on the license plate. 2. The first Chinese character of the license plate: Represents the provincial-level administrative region where the vehicle is registered, which is the abbreviation of each (province, municipality, autonomous region). 3. The second English letter of the license plate: Represents the prefecture-level administrative region where the vehicle is registered, which is the letter code for each (prefecture-level city, region, autonomous prefecture, league), generally ranked according to the status of each prefecture-level administrative region.

I always pay attention to license plates on the street, and others have asked similar questions before. License plates in Jiangsu all start with Su A to Su N, like Nanjing is Su A, Suzhou is Su E, and Suqian is Su N. I’ve genuinely never heard of a Su Z license plate—probably someone misread it or it was photoshopped. If you see such a license plate on the road, it’s most likely fake or cloned, so keep your distance. With surveillance being so strict these days, if such a fake plate gets caught on camera, the owner will be in big trouble. I suggest everyone avoid trying to get creative with license plates and just choose a compliant one for safety. Also, if you want to check a license plate’s origin, just search ‘license plate lookup’ on Alipay to see official info—it’s way more reliable than guessing.

Having been into cars for so many years, I'm quite familiar with license plate codes across regions. All legitimate license plates in Jiangsu only use the first 14 letters from A to N as initials - Su A for Nanjing, Su B for Wuxi, and it goes up to Su N for Suqian before ending. The letter Z is never used in license plates, as this coding rule has been nationally standardized since 2000. If someone claims to have a Su Z plate, they're most likely trying to evade traffic restrictions or cover up a smuggled vehicle. I once saw a guy showing off a fake Z plate at a car meet, only to have his car impounded by the DMV during transfer. Always double-check the vehicle registration certificate when buying a car - if you spot a non-existent code, walk away immediately.
