China IV Emissions: The Hardest Step for Commercial Vehicles


The cries of commercial vehicles reaching the National IV emission standard have been hailed for many years. In 2013, commercial vehicle companies are not that easy because this day is really about to come. At the end of 2012, the reporter learned that on July 1, 2013, the National IV emission standard was about to be implemented.


The engine technological transformation, the increase in the cost of sales, the quality of oil products are worrying... A series of imminent problems need to be solved. There are still less than six months. What kind of answer will be given by car enterprises and relevant government departments?


Heavy cost burden


It is understood that the upgrade cost of the State IV than the State III commercial vehicle is higher by about 20,000 yuan, which is far greater than the 15,000 yuan cost of the State II to the State III. Is this cost acceptable to low-income commercial vehicle users? Is the car selling well?


As we all know, most commercial vehicle users are buying cars to work and earn money. Therefore, commercial vehicle sales models are generally loans. Repayment of the loan after the completion of work has become a rule. Therefore, the direct test of the new standard is the sales link. A commercial vehicle salesman told reporters that individual commercial vehicle users are more concerned with fuel consumption and money, and do not care about emissions. It seems that the whole society needs to be vigorously promoted. Enterprises must also increase their preferential efforts to attract customers. To digest the cost of these two million yuan, concessions are a must. How to let end users accept? Zhu Wenjun, an engineer at the Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Co., Ltd. Power Institute, believes that allowing users to accept must increase propaganda to allow users to understand. In addition, it is essential for users to consider and give them real benefits and benefits.


Yang Xiyuan, chief of the engine department of Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd. Commercial Vehicles Technology Center, believes that for ordinary people, commercial vehicles are production materials. As long as the goods can be transported from one place to another, the cost is as low as possible. Satisfied. However, the purchase of national IV vehicles is likely to bring a cost burden to users. Therefore, enterprises can only accept quality improvement, reduce users' use and maintenance costs, increase their transportation efficiency, and reduce vehicle fuel consumption.


Some experts predict that due to the implementation of new standards on July 1, this year, the domestic commercial vehicle and heavy-duty diesel engine market is likely to show a clear trend of high and low.


Late investment


The commercial vehicle has reached the national IV standard technology, and the SCR (catalytic reduction) technology has been basically recognized by the industry. However, this technology route is highly dependent on urea, that is, the national IV commercial vehicle that owns the technology must regularly add urea. Urea is a kind of reducing agent, which can timely treat the nitrogen oxides in the exhaust gas, making it a harmless nitrogen and water. At present, SCR technology is basically mature, but domestic related facilities are not formed.


Wei Libao, chief engineer of the technical department of FAW Jiefang Automobile Co., Ltd., said that the current national IV technology has matured, but domestic related facilities are not formed, and infrastructure construction should keep up with, such as maintenance of the National IV engine, which urea in the SCR system should be Place to add. In the interview, the reporter also learned that there are still six months before the implementation of the standard. Many urea filling stations have not yet been completed.


A business person is not optimistic about the smooth implementation of the National IV standard. He said that the economic conditions of the users of individual commercial vehicles were not well-to-do, the cost of buying a car was increased by 20,000 yuan, and then the cost of later use was added, ie, the catalyst was regularly added at their own expense. There are expenses before and after, this is difficult for individual users to accept. Whether users can add on time in the future or not, and are willing to increase input in this area, are all unknown.


Oil quality concerns


In addition to worrying about whether the complementary measures (such as the social refueling of urea) can be improved and whether users are willing to add it, the industry is also concerned about the current quality of refined oil products.


“The biggest problem at the moment is still focused on oil products. The sulphur content of the oil is too high,” said Lei Wei, deputy chief of the electronic control calibration unit of Beiqi Foton Motor Co., Ltd. The relevant technical departments have done tests. The oil problem has caused great harm to the vehicle. First, the exhaust gas is difficult to control and causes smoke. Second, the sulfur content is not up to standard and the engine is not fully burned. There is a problem with the quality of the oil. This does not depend on the entire vehicle company. The company hopes that before the implementation date, there will be a breakthrough in oil supply.


It is understood that in August last year, the ministries of quality inspection, environmental protection, commerce, and energy jointly issued the "Guidance Opinions on Promoting Quality Improvement of Automotive Gasoline and Diesel Products" (hereinafter referred to as "opinions"). The company's corporate responsibilities for vehicle gasoline and diesel production enterprises have set clear requirements and clearly defined the specific responsibilities of the four ministries and commissions in improving fuel quality. The quality inspection department is responsible for market access, examination and approval, quality control, and regular and irregular inspections for outstanding quality issues. The business department strictly manages the market access of enterprises from the perspective of the refined oil market management. The "Opinions" require all departments to crack down on issues such as lack of license, overreach, or handling of counterfeiting and other issues in accordance with their respective duties and to strengthen the handling of complaints and reports.


Regarding fuel quality issues that are of particular concern to everyone, Ni Hong, director of the New Vehicle Environmental Reporting Office of the Motor Vehicle Sewage Disposal Monitoring Center of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, said that the quality improvement of the refined oil market is just around the corner. Enterprises should not regard it as an implementation of the national IV standard. Kaner, this is a question to be considered by the country.


The reporter also learned that the new subsidy policy for environmental protection and energy-saving vehicles will soon be introduced. The original subsidy policy was mainly aimed at small-displacement vehicles. Only the issue of energy conservation was considered. The new subsidy policy added environmental protection issues. In principle, cars that implement the next stage of new emission standards should receive subsidies.


In addition, the preferential policies for low oil and fuel consumption tax are being examined and approved. As long as they are introduced, regardless of the degree of preferential treatment, they will play a positive role in promoting the implementation of State IV emission standards.


Supervision is difficult


During the interview, many people expressed concern about the implementation of the National IV Standard in the later period and hoped that the relevant government departments would strengthen supervision. In fact, regulation is indeed difficult. The first is the urea additive problem. Industry insiders pointed out that there is no better inspection method for cars currently added or not. Some people suggested installing an alarm device on the engine, but some people worry that some illegal car companies will use their hands and feet in the car and use shielding to interfere with the implementation of the new standard.


This reporter learned that in the preparation for the implementation of the National IV, large enterprises are very enthusiastic, and some small businesses are still watching. An industry source told reporters that many companies are watching and watching law enforcement efforts. If they can get through other tricks to get through the loopholes and get ring guarantees and announcements, why do they need to invest heavily in research and development?


It seems that whether National IV emission standards can be truly implemented depends on the government's supervision and corporate awareness.
