Update news motorbike emissions
A plan to test emissions on 14 million motorbikes in Vietnam's two biggest cities may falter due to lack of facilities and trained personnel.
Manufacturers fear waste and cost under new emissions rules without matching fuel supply.
According to a draft roadmap for implementing new emission standards, starting January 1, 2030, all cars operating in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City must meet at least emission level 2 standards.
A draft regulation proposes mandatory emissions testing for motorbikes, potentially forcing millions of older vehicles off the roads.
A proposed national regulation introduces five emission levels for in-use cars, with a roadmap starting in 2026.
If proposed stricter emissions standards are implemented in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, will vehicles manufactured before 2017 still be permitted on the roads of Vietnam’s two largest urban centers?
Controlling vehicle emissions in major cities like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City is an urgent task to protect public health. However, current regulations on vehicle emission control have yet to be effectively implemented.
