Here’s what you need to know about China in the past 24 hours 

中国经济要闻

China will start to implement the China VI-b emission standards for vehicles starting from July 1, banning production, imports and sales of models that don't comply with the standards, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment said on Tuesday in a joint statement with four other authorities. 

The upgraded standards have more stringent emission requirements for pollutants such as carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides of gas and gasoline-fueled vehicles, compared with the current China VI-a standards.

The new standard will require Real-Driving Emission (RDE) tests of the vehicles while driven on the road, which is not included in the "China VI-a" standard.

As of January 2023, there were more than 1.89 million vehicles in inventory that did not meet the RDE testing requirements, with more than 2 million vehicles in inventory including purchased parts, data from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers showed on Tuesday. 

However, for some light-duty vehicles qualified under the China VI-b standards but with a "monitoring only" testing result, sales will be allowed to continue to December 31, read the statement. 

The association said the timing will bring substantial relief to the industry, while assisting the auto market to recover steadily. 

Due to a gradual cooling of the heated price war since March and the impact of last year’s low base, wholesale sales in China’s passenger vehicle market reached 1.81 million units in April, jumping 86.5 percent year on year, according to a report released by the China Passenger Car Association on Tuesday.

NEV market’s wholesale sales tallied 607,000 units last month, rising by 115.6 percent annually, with a penetration rate of 33.9 percent. Eleven NEV manufacturers sold more than 10,000 vehicles each in wholesale last month, with BYD, Tesla China and GAC Aion ranking top 3. 

Retail sales of China's passenger vehicles surged 55.5 percent year on year, with a total of 1.63 million passenger vehicles were sold last month, according to the association.

In April, China exported 300,000 passenger cars, a yearly increase of 227 percent, of which NEVs accounted for 30 percent.  

日前，生态环境部、工信部等五部门发布关于实施汽车国六排放标准有关事宜的公告。自2023年7月1日起，全国禁止生产、进口、销售不符合国六排放标准6b阶段的汽车，针对部分实际行驶污染物排放试验（即RDE试验）报告结果为“仅监测”等轻型汽车国六b车型，给予半年过渡期。

公告指出，自2023年7月1日起，全国范围全面实施国六排放标准6b阶段，禁止生产、进口、销售不符合国六排放标准6b阶段的汽车。生产日期以机动车合格证的车辆制造日期为准，且合格证电子信息应于2023年7月1日0时前完成上传；进口日期以货物进口证明书签注运抵日期为准；销售日期以机动车销售发票日期为准。

同时，针对部分实际行驶污染物排放试验报告结果为“仅监测”等轻型汽车国六b车型，给予半年销售过渡期，允许销售至2023年12月31日。

所谓“国六”标准，其全称为“国家第六阶段机动车污染物排放标准”，是为防治机动车污染排放、改善环境空气质量制定的国家标准。因其复杂性和标准门槛高于“欧六”标准，因此也被行业内称为“全球最严排放标准”。

根据规定，国六标准的实施分为a、b两个阶段，第一阶段从2020年7月1日起，不能销售、注册、上牌低于国六a标准的汽车。第二阶段从2023年7月1日起，不能销售、注册、上牌低于国六b标准的汽车。

值得关注的是，受疫情、市场等多重因素影响，部分不符合RDE试验要求的国六b车辆库存积压严重。中国汽车工业协会数据显示，截至2023年1月底，不满足RDE试验要求的库存车辆超过189万，含已采购部件的库存超过200万。

乘联会秘书长崔东树认为，国六排放标准6b阶段实施政策的公布，不仅稳定了企业和经销商心态，也进一步提振了市场消费，对5月国内车市的快速恢复将起到促进作用。

5月9日，乘联会举行月度乘用车市场分析发布会。数据显示，4月乘用车市场零售量达163万辆，受低基数影响，同比增幅较大，达55.5%，环比增长2.5%。其中，自主品牌零售79万辆，同比增长63%，环比增长1.5%。

乘联会表示，4月价格战热度逐渐消退，经销商心态逐步稳定，消费者恢复理性消费，观望情绪得以缓解，前期压抑的需求有所释放；叠加“五一”小长假出行用车需求增长，带动4月购车消费前置，整体车市延续3月底的态势，企稳修复。

自主品牌在新能源市场和出口市场获得明显增量，头部传统车企转型升级表现优异，比亚迪、长安、奇瑞、上汽等传统车企品牌份额提升明显。4月新能源乘用车市场零售量为52.7万辆，同比增长85.6%，环比下降3.6%。

今年汽车出口延续去年年末强势增长特征。乘联会统计口径下的4月乘用车出口量达30万辆，同比增长227%，环比增长3%。其中，新能源车出口9.1万辆，同比增长1028.5%，环比增长29.4%，占乘用车出口总量的31%。

The average salary of China's urban employees saw steady growth in 2022, data from the National Bureau of Statistics showed on Tuesday. The average salary in the non-private sector reached 114,029 yuan, up 6.7 percent in nominal terms and 4.6 percent after adjusted for inflation. In the private sector, the annual average salary stood at 65,237 yuan, up 1.7 percent in real term. 

Jobs in the information transmission, software and information technology service industries were China’s highest-paid last year, as employees received an average annual salary of 220,418 yuan from public units and 123,894 yuan from private companies last year, up 9.4 percent and 8.1 percent, respectively, from the previous year. The lowest wages from urban non-private units were in the household service, repair, and other services, as workers received 47,760 yuan annually, while in the private sector, jobs in accommodation and catering were paid the lowest with 53,995 yuan a year.
