Which province does the Rong A license plate belong to?

Currently, there is no Rong A license plate, so the Ling L license plate does not exist. Here is some related information about license plates: 1. A license plate, commonly known as a car plate, is a panel hung on the front and rear of a vehicle. 2. The materials commonly used include aluminum, iron, plastic, or paper, with the vehicle's registration number, registration region, or other relevant information engraved on them. 3. Vehicle license plates can be categorized into: new energy vehicle special plates, large vehicle plates, trailer plates, small vehicle plates, and instructor vehicle plates. 4. License plates serve as a numbering and information registration system for vehicles. Their primary function is to identify the region to which a vehicle belongs and to trace the vehicle's owner and registration details based on the plate.
This is right up my alley. License plates starting with 'RongA' are definitely from Chengdu, Sichuan. The character 'Rong' has long been an alternative name for Chengdu, and it's been years since Chengdu changed its license plate prefix from 'ChuanA' to 'RongA'. Last time I spotted a NIO ES8 with a RongA plate on the ring expressway, I even explained this to my passenger. While all license plates in Sichuan Province begin with 'Chuan', Chengdu as the provincial capital originally used 'ChuanA' before getting its exclusive 'Rong' prefix. If you come across plates like RongB or RongC, don't be confused - they're all issued by different Chengdu vehicle management offices, with later alphabet letters indicating more recent registration dates.
I just helped an out-of-town relative look this up a few days ago. Rong A is the exclusive license plate code for Chengdu City in Sichuan Province. Actually, many cities have this kind of abbreviated license plates, like Qingdao using Lu B but also being able to use Lu U. Chengdu is special in this regard, directly using the city's abbreviation plus letter combinations. I remember last year Chengdu had an official document specifically explaining that both Rong A and Chuan A are now standard license plates, with the old Chuan A vehicles switching to the new coding when replacing plates. However, Chuan A plates are still more common on the road, and the new plates will take time to gradually become widespread.
