Diesel vehicles emit difficult to reach EU standards on how Supervision Department from the Department

EU intends to relax the existing emission standards surprising news, but also triggered some of the industry's deep thinking.
After the mass emission false door was exposed, many well-known brands and therefore also "lay the gun", although no further evidence of its fraud in emissions testing, but in fact, the measured emission vehicle models road car prices are indeed part more than the value the law.
"So many car prices emissions are not standard, this standard is not meant standards too high?" Insiders Zhang (a pseudonym) told the "First Financial Daily" reporters take time to make such a question. As an "outsider", it is difficult to go to the reasonableness of the EU or the United States these emission standards or to make a realistic evaluation.
But perhaps we can take to the contrary, look at the Chinese market diesel emissions of repeated fraud case. Chinese native country, four diesel emissions counterfeiting industry is already open "secret." Objective reasons for this phenomenon are many, such as infrastructure facilities are not in place, the oil problem, users for cost-sensitive, and lax supervision. However, one factor may not previously have attracted much attention, that is, between policy and markets, in the end should be how to balance, as far as possible in order to ensure a relatively benign result, but in the process, the regulatory mechanism in the end should how to play a role?
In Zhang seems, diesel emissions really exposed the fraud and reckless conduct business profit law. But in fact, tortuous and regulatory loopholes in the policy implementation process more to boost the company's profit.
September 2003, China began to implement the second phase of the national emission standards for heavy-duty diesel vehicles. And in 2008, after which in July, heavy-duty diesel vehicles was formally implemented the country, three emission standards. In other words, from the second year grace period to upgrade the country, three emissions in five years, but after that, the policy requires that beginning in January 2011 to implement emission standards for diesel vehicles of four countries, the transition period is just more than two years . Zhang believes that a serious shortage of the transition period the standard upgrade to leave the enterprise. In accordance with normal procedures, companies even have the technical ability to upgrade, but experimental verification of vehicles, also need two to three years, not to mention, in this process, did not do a good job before the technical reserves of some enterprises.
In 2010, the relevant state departments have also found that, because the oil is not up to the problem, at the time the four countries to achieve emission diesel vehicles is actually an impossible "task", so he chose to defer the standard implementation time. Then, time and because of the implementation of the standards has been delayed several times for various reasons. This "hesitation" attitude largely affected the business in the promotion and development of reserves. "Already good product ready enterprise products can not be recognized, resulting in increased occupancy and cost of funds, and some companies are watching and waiting, not knowing when to strictly enforce the policy in the end." And while there are still some companies in the muddy the waters, because even later some provinces and local emission standards ahead of the implementation of the four countries, but in the specific regulation has not been effectively implemented, some companies give the chance of fraud, resulting in market confusion, Gresham's Law. "In accordance with the existing regulatory model, the business fraud cost is too low, penalties and regulatory authorities have no real deterrent effect." Zhang said.
Earlier, the Director of the Beijing Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, Li Kunsheng vehicle emission Administration has publicly said that relevant departments of motor vehicles in air pollution control link, the existence of a problem of poor post-regulatory effect. He said, "from the implementation of the second year after 2003, many companies have no serious heavy vehicle emission standards performed, false start, in 2008 after the country, three standards also not been seriously implemented."
The reason why this happens, it seems in the Li Kunsheng mainly because the trial only on vehicle license MIIT "big announcement", while the "big announcement" does not require verification of emissions from vehicle configuration key component models. At the same time, the Ministry although mastered the right to publish notice of the vehicle, but the lack of a strong legal support, vehicle production and sales of various problems, particularly environmental problems do not really effective punishment. Only in accordance with "vehicle manufacturers and product consistency supervision and management measures" to include environmental issues, including consistency checks. Even if there is a problem, only in accordance with Article 10 process management, "depending on the severity, according to the law were to take informed, rectification, suspension or withdrawal 'from safety inspection' record, suspend or revoke the relevant product announcements and other measures." In addition, although the Ministry of Environmental Protection Environmental consistency checks each year, but the area is too large due to the fraud, law enforcement alone can not solve the problem backend checks, not to mention MEP limited manpower and material resources. Even since 2014 the State attaches great importance to the issue of environmental standards of new cars, environmental protection and other five ministries jointly issued a document, it is still a campaign-style governance, it is difficult to receive the desired results.
However, these problems may be (the "Air Law") in the new "People's Republic of China Air Pollution Prevention Law" next year after the official implementation is resolved. Under the new "Air Law" stipulates that vehicle manufacturers excessive emissions of new cars, 2 to 3 times to market sales will be fine. Li Kunsheng had cited an example, if the price of 10 million bicycles, sales of 10,000, then 2-3 times the fine will reach 20-30 billion yuan, an unprecedented intensity. In the automotive use, the country will also strengthen supervision, the use of non-compliance if the individual models, will be punished. Moreover, the new law than in the past, compared to further clarify the government's responsibility in terms of pollution prevention, strengthen the supervision of local governments.
