Which Year's Cars Are China V?

[AdrianaFitz]

China V refers to vehicles from the year 2012. The China V standard is more stringent than China IV, requiring fewer pollutant emissions, making it more environmentally friendly. The China V Motor Vehicle Pollutant Emission Standard, also known as the China V standard, has emission control levels equivalent to the Euro 5 emission standard currently implemented in Europe. It imposes stricter limits on pollutants such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), and particulate matter (PM) emitted by motor vehicles. From China I to China IV, each upgrade in the standard reduces vehicle pollution by 30% to 50%. Compared to the China IV standard, the new standard reduces nitrogen oxide emissions from light-duty vehicles by 25% and from heavy-duty vehicles by 43%.
