Which year's cars comply with China V emission standards?
2 Answers
China V emission standard vehicles started production in 2012 and the standard was officially implemented in 2013. Relevant information about China V is as follows: 1. Level: The emission control level of China V standard is equivalent to the European Stage 5 emission standard currently in implementation. After the implementation of China V standard, the restrictions on motor vehicle emissions such as nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and suspended particles became more stringent. 2. Significance: China V is stricter than China IV, emitting fewer pollutants, making it more environmentally friendly; The implementation significance lies in enforcing environmental protection laws, reducing and preventing vehicle exhaust pollution to the environment, protecting the ecological environment, and ensuring human health.
As a car enthusiast, I often study emission standard details. China National 5 emission vehicles were mainly introduced in 2017. To be precise, the nationwide mandatory implementation of the China 5 standard began on July 1, 2017, with light-duty vehicle models strictly adhering to this requirement; some major cities like Beijing and Shanghai implemented it ahead of schedule as pilot projects in 2016. Since then, newly produced vehicles have basically been China 5 compliant, which improved exhaust control, such as further reducing PM particulates and nitrogen oxides, significantly improving urban air quality. When buying a car now, models from after 2017 are most likely compliant, but for used cars, you need to check the registration certificate to confirm the year. Although China 6 has since been introduced, China 5 vehicles are still running smoothly on the roads, and with proper daily maintenance, there's no issue. Overall, this was a key moment in environmental progress.
