People exercise in the smog on a polluted day in Zhengzhou, Henan province, China January 9, 2017

In another push to reduce city's harming emissions and its notorious smog ,China will effectively ban the local production of a total of 553 passenger car models starting from January 1. The announcement was made by the China Vehicle Technology Service Center, and affects vehicles that don't meet the country's fuel consumption and emissions requirements.

The full list of banned cars is unknown,but it includes models from Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Chevrolet, Volkswagen, and many more. Vehicles with internal codes FV7145LCDBG (Audi), BJ7302ETAL2 (Mercedes) and SGM7161DAA2 (Chevrolet), all of which are sedans, are affected by the sanction.

While 553 vehicles sounds like a lot, the secretary general of the China Passenger Car Association told the publication it's actually a very small percentage of passenger cars that are produced in China.

China is still finalizing its timetable to stop production and sales of internal combustion vehicles. The country’s government wants to switch entirely to what it calls new energy vehicles which includes hybrids, plug-in hybrids, electric Vehicles and fuel-cell models, and plans them to account for about 40 percent of all sales there by 2030.

China has tackled its chronic pollution problem by limiting steel production, restricting coal usage, and its multi year plan to phase out vehicles powered by petrol and diesel. But this is its first official ban of a specific list of polluting vehicles.

In Nigeria use sand to make a car and you are a champion.

God help our nation.
Nailing wood together to make something that looks like a car makes someone a celeb.

They should bring the ones they already have to Nigeria cos in my country anything goes we don’t care.

Sad Truth Is That Most Of These Cars Might Still End Up In Underdeveloped Countries, Like Nigeria

Nigeria can't even ban cars/ trucks with bad engines polluting the air.

Whereas the use of generator for electricity will increase in Nigeria from Jan 1.

This ain't climate change.

This is pollution from fumes from too many engines.

It's localized to most Chinese cities and may be totally absent in the countryside where there are few to no vehicles.

Abeg, why una go wan compare everything with 9ja, Abeg make una port those cars come here, I pass my neighbor smoke never kill us na Benz

Back in October, I nearly laughed my eyes out the day I saw a Chinese using a nose protective clothing at the Ikeja domestic Airport.

I was like whatever air pollution you might encounter here is a learner to where you coming from.

So remove that clothing from your nose and be humble

Had it been in Nigeria that govt make such decision, citizens would have been wailing!

Oga this has nothing to do with climate change. This one is China's domestic pollution problem. The earth's climate has been changing since she was born. Has nothing to do with human activity. We once had an ice age remember?

so!

We care less about things like that down here. Only an educated leader would know if the atmosphere is undergoing pollution
