Beijing plans to require local car buyers to show proof they have secured a parking space before purchasing a vehicle, as the city battles congestion and pollution.
The city aims to introduce the rule next year, Vice Mayor Zhang Yankun said at a meeting in the capital today. If implemented, Beijing will be the first city in China to require parking proof for a vehicle purchase. Tokyo has a similar requirement.
