Nowadays, cars are becoming more and more popular. If calculated by family, it can be said that almost every family has a car. However, judging from the cycle of automobile popularization, the time of automobile popularization in China is really not long, and the popularization in a large area is less than fifteen years.

Compared with Europe and America, our understanding of car culture and cars is really not long, so many of our riders have different understandings of cars, and some misunderstandings are even ridiculous! Then some misunderstandings may challenge your original cognition, so I want to make it clear that due to the limited space, what I say below is only my personal opinion.

Then don't put the complicated argumentation process into it. If there are any mistakes, please point out the discussion, but please go out and turn right. There's a construction site over there, and the contractor's master keeps saying that there is a lack of a herdsman. Next, let's talk about what are the misunderstandings!

1, SUV is safer than car, so there are many disputes about who is safer. According to the mortality report released by IIHS 20 17, the overall mortality of SUV models is 21110,000, while the overall mortality of cars is 39/ 1 10,000. Then if we shift from mortality to other directions, the results may be different. Then, for example, because the center of gravity of the car is lower, the elk test performs better.

Our cars are generally 70-80km/h, and SUVs are generally 60-70km. In addition, because the sedan has a trunk as a collapse area, it has an advantage in dealing with rear-end collisions. We can say that in the conventional collision safety level, SUV will have more advantages. But if you encounter extreme driving, a car with a lower center of gravity is safer!

2. The oil filler in the instrument points to the right and left. Why? In the early days of the car, there was no professional gas station, and the owner needed to take a bucket of gasoline to fill his car at home. Then it is obviously very dangerous to refuel on the driver's side of the road where cars are coming and going, so the car designer put the refueling port on the other side of the steering wheel, so this habit has been maintained until today. That's related to the country of origin, not to others.

3. fuel treasure can boost the momentum. In fact, this statement is not completely wrong, because the main function of gasoline detergents such as fuel treasure is to help car engines clean up carbon deposits. Therefore, adding detergent to the car with poor performance caused by serious carbon deposition can really restore the power before the engine.

Then, for the normal working automobile engine, additives will not bring extra power boost to the automobile. It's like a person who is weak after catching a cold, and his physical strength is restored after taking medicine to treat a cold, but when he doesn't have a cold, even if he takes cold medicine, his physical strength will not increase, but he will definitely feel a little uncomfortable!

4. The manual gear configuration is low. With the higher and higher quality of our life, more and more people begin to pursue the comfort and maneuverability of cars. Automatic cars exist only to improve comfort and operability, so automatic models are becoming more and more popular, and even many high-end models have cancelled the manual gear configuration.

This has led many people to think that the manual transmission model is of low grade and there is no high-grade automatic transmission. I have to say that this is a serious misunderstanding. Then the only advantage of automatic transmission compared with manual transmission is simple operation, but the cost of fuel consumption, failure rate, maintenance and so on is much higher than that of manual transmission, which completely loses the fun of driving a vehicle.

At the same time, it also caused many people to slowly forget the operation of manual transmission! As we all know, many high-performance cars are equipped with manual gears, such as Golf R and Nissan GTR. Only the manual gear can perfectly show the high performance and driving skills of the vehicle.

Manual transmission and automatic transmission are only different in gearbox and other configurations, so many consumers in Europe and America are keen on manual transmission, and automatic transmission can only be popularized in China.

5, not all Japanese cars will be very fuel-efficient, most people buy Japanese cars for peace of mind. Then many of us know that when it comes to Japanese cars, they are thin and stuffed, with low safety factor and fuel economy. But it is true, but for low-end entry-level models, Japanese cars do save fuel.

For example, Vios Corolla, Zhixuan and so on. It really saves fuel. Then if you get on a car above Class B, such as Camry Accord Teana, Overbearing Reiz Crown and some Acura models, as well as British and finidi models, their models are actually not fuel-efficient and waste oil. Not all Japanese cars are as fuel-efficient as everyone thinks.

Therefore, whether a car saves fuel or not is mainly related to its displacement and the level of the whole body. If its displacement is large, even if you optimize it again, it will not be so fuel-efficient. It is hooliganism to distinguish whether to save fuel according to the brand. This is just a slogan that has been circulating for many years!
