Will removing the Brilliance BMW emblem result in a fine?
2 Answers
Removing the Brilliance BMW emblem is subject to fines and considered illegal. Below is some expanded information about Brilliance Auto. 1. Introduction: Brilliance is a legendary enterprise and a pioneer in establishing a new model for Chinese independent brands. The group is currently involved in various fields including complete vehicles, new energy, and intelligent manufacturing. 2. Subsidiary Brands: It owns three independent brands—Zhonghua, Jinbei, and Huasong—as well as two joint venture brands, Brilliance BMW and Brilliance Renault, covering the full range of passenger and commercial vehicles. Among them, Brilliance Zhonghua, a national brand, along with other domestic car brands like Chery and BYD, has helped establish the reputation of Chinese automotive brands both domestically and internationally, earning a good reputation.
As someone who frequently helps friends with vehicle inspections, this issue is all too common. Last time, my neighbor bought a new Brilliance BMW 525 and insisted on removing the 'Brilliance' lettering. As a result, the annual inspection got stuck, and in the end, he had to pay 300 yuan to have someone reattach the original factory emblem. Nowadays, traffic regulations are strict, and altering vehicle body emblems falls under the category of illegal modifications. If caught, you will definitely be fined. In our city last year, several cars with removed emblems were caught, resulting in a 200-yuan fine and 1 penalty point. The most unfair part is that it also causes trouble when selling the car. A friend of mine was lowballed by a used car dealer by seven or eight thousand yuan because of this. If you really want to appear high-end, it's better to go for the imported version instead of taking this risk.
