Why are private cars not allowed to change their logos?
There is a premise for the car to change the logo. Changing signs on public roads is not allowed. If it is only replaced in the garage or used at the site designated by itself, it is not restricted. As for cars with a makeover, they are not allowed to go on the road for three reasons.

First of all, the probability of hit-and-run is very high

Most of the models that can change the logo are cheap cars that copy classic models in appearance. This kind of car is very similar to the prototype. After changing the logo, Gui Li can really pretend to be Li Kui jy. If this kind of car has a traffic accident and escapes after the bid change, not many people can really judge the brand of the accident car. If the car that caused the accident is changed back to the original car, it can basically escape the punishment of the law by simply repairing it or changing its color.

Perhaps for car enthusiasts, no matter what logo you change, you can see the true face of the car, but not everyone is interested in cars, so changing the label of the car is a safety hazard of public transportation. The well-known cars of this kind are Zotye SR9- Porsche Macan, Landwind X7- Land Rover Aurora, Beiqi BJ80- Mercedes-Benz G series, changan CS55- Land Rover Discovery, and Qingdao Sol- Rolls Royce, which are very unpopular.

The second point is infringement.

Take Baoshitai as an example, this brand is really a model that scares luxury car brands, and its appearance similarity is higher than high. For this kind of car owners, if Zotye's logo is changed to Porsche's vehicle vision, there is no sense of disobedience, but the behavior of changing the logo is not allowed by Porsche and belongs to the infringement of trademark use rights.

If this car caused a serious accident and was mistaken by Chaoyang people as a Porsche car, it had a serious negative impact on Porsche and infringed on Porsche's reputation, so it was not allowed to change the bid.

Third, shame.

According to incomplete statistics, there are 143 domestic car brands and independent series, covering almost all types from A00 hatchback to medium and large cars, and nearly 1200 cars with a price of 300,000-600,000. There are too many cars to choose from, and there are also some excellent models and mid-to high-end models. In order to save face, we must consider independent high-end models.

However, buying a China car and replacing it with a foreign brand logo seems to be a denial of China goods and one's own personality. The official may not consider it from this angle, but it is really shameful among the people.

Article 16 of the Road Traffic Safety Law stipulates that no unit or individual may change the obviously special and registered structure of vehicles. Changing the vehicle logo violates these two points, and 500 yuan can be fined, and the original appearance can be forcibly restored according to regulations for reference.
