VCCI proposes limit on inspections of vehicle energy consumption
All electric and hybrid cars with 7-9 seats and motorbikes to have an energy consumption rating, labeled and published before being sold.

The Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) has proposed clear regulations on the number of energy consumption inspections performed each year on electric and hybrid cars and motorbikes.

Commenting on a draft Circular on energy labeling for electric and hybrid automobiles, bikes, and motorcycles, it suggested that the number of inspections each year not exceed two.

Inspections are necessary to ensure legal compliance. However, they also affect production and business at enterprises if they must undergo too many inspections in a year, according to VCCI.

It also recommended that inspection plans be published in advance on government websites.

The draft law, a collaborative effort between the Ministry of Science and Technology and the Ministry of Transport, will require all electric and hybrid cars with 7-9 seats and motorbikes to have an energy consumption rating that is labeled and published prior to sale.
