· China's car diesel vehicles in Europe are blocked from reaching the European 6 emission standards

According to a recent report by the European version of "Automotive News", Chinese automakers including Great Wall Motor and SAIC GM are blocked in Western Europe because their diesel models are difficult to meet the stringent Euro 6 emission standards.
It is reported that the Euro 6 standard has been implemented since a year ago. For all new cars, the NOx emissions of diesel vehicles should not exceed 80 mg per kilometer. In contrast, the emission of NOx from Euro 5 standard diesel vehicles must not exceed 180 mg per km. Great Wall Motor spokesman said that the current model in Western Europe is Feng Jun pickup, and there is no plan to build a diesel vehicle that meets the Euro 6 standard.

The Great Wall UK import dealers said that the last batch of Fengjun, which currently meets the Euro 5 standard, can still be sold, but the future is still unknown. Market research firm JATO Dynamics data shows that in the first half of 2016, Great Wall Europe sold only 43 vehicles.

The MG said at the beginning of this year that it has stopped selling diesel cars in its only European market in the UK because its 1.9-liter engine has not been upgraded to the Euro 6 standard. The sale of the MG6 midsize sedan in Europe was also terminated. At the same time, MG has no plans to introduce the diesel version of the new Sharp MG GS compact SUV model in the short term.

Diesel vehicles are not hot-selling in China, and the market reaction is deserted. Therefore, the investment of self-owned brands in diesel vehicles will not be immediately rewarded. Lain Flemin, deputy director of engines at SAIC's Longbridge Technology Center, said: "Some senior executives of SAIC have proposed to the Chinese government to promote diesel passenger cars, but the Volkswagen exhaust valve has been exposed, resulting in diesel vehicles having no way in China. go."

Europe will introduce a new “Real Driving Emissions” (RDE) in September 2017 to test the exhaust emissions of actual road vehicles using portable measuring equipment outdoors. Automakers will therefore face even more serious challenges.
