1 Answers
Vehicles produced between 2008 and 2010 are classified as China III standard cars. Below is an introduction to the China III standard: 1. The China III standard for automobiles was implemented on July 1, 2008. According to national regulations, starting from July 1, 2008, the 'China III' testing standard for vehicle exhaust emissions became mandatory nationwide, which helps improve environmental protection. 2. China III emission standards mainly refer to: HC emission levels below 0.2g/km, CO emission levels below 2.3g/km, NOx emission levels below 0.15g/km, with no PM requirement. 3. The China III emission standard is equivalent to the Euro III emission standard, meaning the pollutant content in exhaust gases is similar to Euro III levels. The difference is that new vehicles must be equipped with an OBD, or On-Board Diagnostics system.
