Morning Brainstorming: How can the Chinese commercial vehicle industry contribute to the implementation and development of
legislation?
12:00
The commercial vehicle market in China has seen some mixed hopes and fears in 2014 where emissions legislation is
concerned. On the one hand, China IV has just been widely implemented across the country however it has not been
without challenges and difficulties which are gradually arising during the enforcement. Discussions regarding the
introduction of Euro VI standards are also leading to both curiosity alongside uncertainty from the industry. In this
brainstorming session, leading experts from international and domestic vehicle manufacturers will discuss practical
strategies and measurements that can be taken to improve the China IV implementation, as well as prospects and concerns
for the adoption of more stringent legislation.
