TOP2: new car be sure to pull the high-speed running
Truth: Now depot out of the car at high speeds without the need to carry out so-called run-in. And consider from a security perspective, novice drivers' high-speed pull "easily lead to accidents, the consequences could be disastrous. A huge number of cars sold each year, if the new vehicles have to "pull the high-speed", the risk can be imagined.
TOP3: put the trunk can not drink the water
A posts and microblogging, micro-channel heat transfer circle of friends: "Do not drink to stay on the car of bottled water with bottled water after the car in the sun, the bottle will release harmful substances, health hazards!. especially when the bottle is placed in a car trunk in high temperature, high temperature PET bottles will change, resulting in penetration of harmful substances into the water, hazardous to health. "
Truth: PET bottles of bottled water is generally not add plasticizers such substances, water bottles regular manufacturers do not release formaldehyde and other substances. Stability of PET is determined by the degree of polymerization of the polyester material, in general, when the temperature is less than 120 deg.] C, PET materials are very safe. The car is clearly not up to such a high temperature.
TOP4: license plate cover can make small dots electronic eyes fail
It is said that the first letter of the license plates come in small dots removed, the electronic eye of the lack of focus, it is unclear shoot your car license plate number!

TOP5: turbocharged more powerful, more fuel-efficient
In recent years, the rise of small-displacement turbocharged engines, manufacturers often see how their propaganda boost fuel-efficient cars. But fuel-efficient turbocharged engines really do?
Truth: Compared with the displacement, such as low power 1.4T turbo engine, never more fuel-efficient than the 1.4L naturally aspirated engine. In particular, the actual fuel consumption in urban driving, often with a power greater than self-priming engine.
To the same power ratio, a 2.0T turbocharged engine with the power corresponding to the naturally aspirated engine should be 2.5L, and 2.5L turbocharged 2.0 and fuel consumption is roughly equal. And naturally aspirated ride and post-maintenance costs has a great advantage.
TOP6: thick steel plate that was safe
Almost all domestic consumers or car enthusiasts have heard the rhetoric, even a lot of people on this car Proverbs. In fact, this is a misunderstanding of vehicle safety.

Sheet metal thickness and regardless of vehicle safety, only the low-speed collision loss generated when relevant; Frame structure design, materials and heat treatment process, a vehicle collision is determined security elements.
TOP7: better comfort configuration
Many people attach great importance to buy a car sunroof, leather seats, N speakers These comfortable configuration, if made no xenon headlights, full-size spare tire, the car it is simply not looked comfortable configuration has almost become mandatory standard, but then affect the future of active and passive safety car is not very concerned about.
