Imported cars totaled 1.2 million units, which marked an annual increase of approximately 7.3%. Mandatory fuel economy standards have delivered an average of about 3% in fuel savings globally, which resulted in GHG emissions and air pollution reduction2. Unsurprisingly, in September 2013, several Chinese national and local level officials declared waragainstair pollution, where transportation was identified as one of seven key target sectors and was in some cases noted to account for as much as 31% of urban PM2.53. China started implementing the first phase of its fuel economy standards in July 2005. Since then, it has introduced three more phases: extending the standard to include fuel consumption targets, corporate average fuel consumption targets and limits, and imported vehicles management (in preparation for including imported cars under the standard).
