Environmental commitment

According to Decision No. 49/2011 / QD-TTg on the prescribed schedule applicable emission standards for cars, motorcycles assembled and imported, from 01/01/2017, automotive, motorcycle to meet emission standards at level 4 (Euro 4) and to meet 01/01/2020 5 emission standards (Euro 5).

Earlier, a series of associations, businesses have stepped time proposed decision applies to passenger cars of 16 seats or more and trucks by up unprepared.

Recently, the Ministry of Transport has written to the Prime Minister proposed to postpone the application of Euro 4 standards for passenger cars, pick-up of cargo vehicles, trucks (VAN) diesel is produced and assembled in the country for another year, until 01.01.2018. For other types of goods vehicles (except for pickup and loading VAN) diesel postponed until 01.01.2022, ie extended for another 5 years.

Left, lightweight cars (car travel less than 9 seats or less) have been using the gasoline engine production and assembly in the country (but are branded abroad), the route remains the same applies level 4 emission standards from 1.1.2017.

However, speaking at a regular government meeting May 2/2017, the Prime Minister did not agree with the proposal and requires strict implementation, determined not in the interests of some sectors that ignoring environmental protection issues.

Therefore, the roadmap for implementing Euro 4 standards are mandatory for all cars, motorcycle production and assembly and new importers from 01.01.2017.

Vietnam Euro 2 standards are applied with sulfur content in gasoline, set at a maximum of 500 mg / kg. However, with Euro 4 standards, the maximum is only at 50 mg / kg.

According to experts, the sulfur content in gasoline is very interesting. Sulfur when burned, will generate SO2 (sulfur dioxide), mucosal damage in the respiratory tract and eyes. 95% of SO2 from car engines, motorcycles are discharged into the environment. Thus, the sulfur content in gasoline is small as possible.

The implementation of the Euro 4 emission standards are aimed at reducing environmental pollution, affecting the health of all people. This is something that can not be exchanged for any other economic benefits. Many countries around the world have adopted this standard and Vietnam can not slower in applying environmental protection standards this.

Car prices will rise?

As reported by the Department of the Vietnam Register, Euro 4 emission standards applicable from 1.1.2017, but so far, only a few companies conducting trials, while the majority have yet to register check stock ring.

Manufacturing and assembling enterprises and import trucks, passenger cars that still think the roadmap for application of emission standards Euro 4 will be adjusted, back 5 years as proposed by the authorities, should not convert .

Most visitors enter truck units, or assembled in the country, still used standard engine Euro 2 and 3. From 01/01/2017 Vietnam Registry Department undertook to stop the registration certificate for the cars reach Euro 2 emission standards are manufactured, assembled and new importers.

There are hundreds of car was stopped, businesses are waiting, especially after the Ministry of Transport an official letter to the government postponed implementation period.

If you have to comply with Euro 4 standards, the number of vehicles is sure to replace the motor. Besides, the imported CBU cars and assembled at home from now also used to switch to Euro 4 standard engines.

According to calculations, the engine changed from Euro 2 to Euro 4, will make car prices increased significantly. The increase is estimated at 15-20%. Thus, the auto market next time will be increased, with the segment vans and passenger cars 16 seats or more. However, how much growth depends on many factors: the cost of production, taxation, distribution and competition in the market.

The companies said that, while more worries about gasoline quality is not guaranteed. Gasoline production in Vietnam not meet Euro 4 standards, want to meet the right to import and sell fuel with Euro 2 and 3. With so many fuel types will thus present a risk of fraud big business in this commodity.

Concerned least Euro 4 engine vehicles using substandard gasoline, mixed, no quality control, will affect the engine.

Association of Vietnam Automobile Manufacturers (VAMA) said that the market is only 3-4 types of gasoline that the quality control was difficult, if more than the kind of control would not know how. Gasoline does not guarantee the quality will quickly destroy machinery, engines, potentially explosive means.

When used motor cars achieved Euro 4 emission standards prescribed, but using substandard petrol, make sure you have an accident amount will increase significantly. Emissions from petrol does not guarantee the quality of environmental damage remains. So if compulsory motorbike, new cars using Euro 4 engines, the fuel quality standards Euro 4 must also strictly control the dissemination and sale, can be purchased easily.
