Which is your better choice, German car or Japanese car?
German cars are generally heavier than Japanese cars, but it doesn't mean that being heavy is necessarily good. Japanese cars are lighter, so they also have the advantage of being light. First of all, cars are light in weight and will save fuel compared with heavy cars. In this society with rising oil prices, this problem must be considered. Secondly, according to the physical principle, the greater the weight, the greater the inertia, and the smaller the weight of Japanese cars, indicating that their inertia is smaller, more flexible and easier to control. German sales ranked slightly better, and sales also showed people's preferences. Here, this print comes up with the ranking of domestic sales in the first half of the year to see how many people choose German cars or Japanese cars. According to the data released by the Association of Automobile Manufacturers, Shanghai Volkswagen and FAW-Volkswagen sold about 435,000 cars in the first half of the year, including the Audi brand. In addition, the sales performance of German BMW and Mercedes-Benz in China market was all red, with the sales volume of BMW brand exceeding 23,000, and Mercedes-Benz also sold 1.35 million. In contrast, Guangzhou Honda, which has the most Japanese cars, sold 133 173, Dongfeng Nissan sold 128 168, and FAW Toyota sold 1 154 1. In addition, the sales performance of FAW Mazda, Changan Ford Mazda and Suzuki in the first half of the year is also expected to be around 70,000 vehicles. The theory of steel plate thickness is too arbitrary. The proposition of "which is safer, Japanese car or German car" can be discussed, but we can't just pay attention to the thickness of the steel plate of the car body. You know, from the perspective of structural strength, if the thickness of the same material is not much different (the thickness of car body steel plate is generally between 0.8- 1.0mm), the structure determines the strength, not the thickness determines the strength. Therefore, it is not advisable to talk about safety by the thickness of steel plate, and it is unscientific to draw the conclusion that the safety of German cars or Japanese cars is itself. At present, German cars represented by Volkswagen take laser welding of the whole body as the main safety breakthrough, while Japanese cars have made great efforts to strengthen the body structure design. One is to test the deformation ability of the car in an active collision, and the other is to consider the sinking of the engine in the collision to reduce the injury to the people in the car. Experts in the industry believe that Germans' rigorous and serious personality is directly integrated into their automobile design concept. After a car leaves the factory, the goal is to run all over Europe without any problems. Relatively speaking, the rigidity of German cars is relatively high, and the deformation of the whole car is very small in frontal collision and side collision experiments, which gives the cab occupants the greatest protection. The reason why Japanese cars can quickly occupy the market is inseparable from the excellent cost performance of the car, but this does not mean that the safety performance of the car has been discounted. "Japanese cars are relatively light in weight and low in rigidity, but the' soft' body will wrinkle and deform during collision, which just plays a role in absorbing energy and ensuring driver safety." It is an indisputable fact that German cars have a clear upper hand, and some Japanese cars have a low rate of preservation in the used car market. Once, a BMW dealer sold a BMW 528 that ran for 400,000 kilometers at a price of 6.5438+0.8 million yuan, but for Japanese cars, the driving distance of 400,000 kilometers is astronomical. But there are several factors worthy of attention. German cars and Japanese cars have different concepts.
