Toyota is really durable, but Japanese cars are very durable. Although Honda has encountered a lot of right and wrong in recent years, on the whole, the quality performance of Japanese cars is better than that of European cars and American cars. Of course, this is only from a relative perspective; My feeling is that in the past decade, the quality of Japanese joint venture cars has gradually declined, compared with imported Japanese cars decades ago!
To what extent can imported Japanese cars be used in the past? A few years ago, I saw a Camry close to 500,000 kilometers (the actual mileage may be much larger than the surface). The shell has been broken and the primer leaks in many places. Miraculously, even if it was exposed for a long time, it did not rust. I don't know how those car companies that have been rusty for a year or two should feel. Open the cover, except for some dust, the cabin is very dry, not as greasy as 70-80 thousand km of German cars. To tell the truth, Japanese cars are very airtight, which is related to their mastery of material science and organic chemistry!
What's even more ridiculous is that I learned it when I was a child. In the late 1980s, domestic automobile resources were scarce, and automobile management was relatively loose (even one car could handle it). In order to solve the problem of commuter cars for employees, a factory in Shenyang got an N-handed Toyota bus and served in Showa era in Japan. After this kind of foreign garbage came to our country, two cars have been in service for nearly ten years, and the Huanghai cars they bought at the same time are riddled with holes, but this Toyota passenger with thin skin is fine, and even if the paint falls off, it will never rust. The mechanic even added engine oil to it, which is not bad! Finally, two batches of yellow sea guests were consumed, and this Toyota guest disappeared!
The idea of Japanese car companies making cars
Toyota has its own characteristics in making cars. Toyota has the most patents in the automotive field (pictured above), but the technology put into use is the slowest and very conservative. Toyota would rather occupy the market with old and mature technologies, but it will never play with novel technologies that are prone to problems. Toyota and many Japanese car companies are also reluctant to gamble with word of mouth, which is why Japanese cars later popularized turbocharging. If you and Volkswagen play with turbines in civilian cars at the same time (not to mention the story of turbines used in Japanese competitions, burning oil, increasing oil and leaking oil are nothing in the field of racing, but it is a big deal for civilian cars! ), and then Toyota and Volkswagen burn oil together and leak oil together! Only Toyota and many Japanese car companies saw this, so they bypassed the immature moment of the early turbine!
Therefore, a series of German car companies, such as Volkswagen, spent ten years in doubt about burning engine oil, while Japanese car companies spent ten years in obsolete and conservative technology degradation. So ordinary riders don't open their mouths, Germany is good and Japan is good. In fact, the two major car companies have embarked on two different roads, and the concept of making cars is completely different. German cars should be equipped with new technologies to make the driving experience better! Japanese cars insist on making it harder to break down! Therefore, German cars can be said to be antiques in prosperous times, while Japanese cars are gold in troubled times! One day I will choose a Japanese car in case of famine, which is more secure, not easy to break down, easy to repair when it breaks down, and not picky about food! In a stable life, German cars are more suitable for driving!
So Toyota's durability is relative. It is undeniable that Toyota is the benchmark of manufacturing, but it is too conservative in putting technology into use, which is also the guarantee of its high quality. However, any concept is a double-edged sword. High quality is a good thing, but it also has a derogatory meaning of eating old technology forever. On the other hand, European cars have introduced too many immature new technologies, attracting a large number of consumers who like early adopters, but also laying the groundwork for some small problems; Japanese car companies such as Toyota like to repair their internal skills, while European car companies are more gorgeous, saying that Toyota is durable, but it is also the result of different ideas. Again, if Toyota and Volkswagen are working on turbines in civilian vehicles at the same time, Toyota can't control the burning of oil!
Durable or not, it depends on which brand of taxi is used, which must be durable. Why?
Because the use intensity of family cars is low, most of them only run one or twenty thousand kilometers a year, and some even run less than ten thousand kilometers. 15 years is 200,000 to 300,000 kilometers, and taxis run to this mileage in less than two years.
Taxi will run an average of one million kilometers in its service life, which is the real test of durability.
I don't even want to use a taxi. You brag that you are durable? Can this stand the scrutiny of common sense?
In fact, taxi selection not only shows that the selected car is durable, but also shows that the selected model is reliable, because unlike family cars, taxis run 24 hours a day. If they can't repair it, they will not only spend money on maintenance, but also delay their work to earn money.
Is there more Volkswagen brands or Toyota brands in domestic taxis? It's obviously the public, a water army said. You see Hong Kong uses Toyota Crown as a taxi. When you say this, you should take into account that the Crown Taxi in Hong Kong was specially made by Toyota for taxis, and so was Japan. This car is made according to the commercial vehicle standard, which is different from the one used at home. Volkswagen does not have a specially made taxi, and every car can be used as a taxi to meet the demanding requirements of business.
This is a false proposition.
To put it simply, the lower the configuration, the older the technology, and the more durable the mature models, such as Volkswagen's Santana and Jetta, whose sales are ok now. Toyota has no sales volume to compare with them. Are the new Santana and Jetta not durable? Otherwise, how could so many people choose them instead of VIOS and Zhixuan? Do Santana and Jetta owners like being abused? I'm so excited because I have to repair my car every day. Right? Don't treat everyone else like a fool.
There's nothing to break except the engine and gearbox, because it's not equipped, let alone the reversing radar and so on. Even the radio in the central control room was cancelled directly, and even the Honda logo on the hub was given to Jane. If this car is not durable, is there justice? Which Toyota car can be more worry-free and durable than Honda Feng Fan?
Why is Toyota durable? The same is true, because Toyota is the most conservative and likes to use mature old technology. Take lexus es200 as an example. Now the price is 290,000, so it needs to be increased. The main accessories it uses are: the old 2.0l naturally aspirated engine of the seventh generation Camry, Aisin 6at gearbox used by Jetta and Santana, Camry chassis and suspension, elegant and comfortable seats made by Nissan ... Please tell me! Which accessory fully reflects Toyota's new technology and high cost? After thinking about it, there is only a front face like a bulldozer!
So it really makes sense that lexus es200 is more durable. If Volkswagen's Santana uses old technology, but carefully selects accessories, it will also launch a special price of 300,000 Santana! Do you believe it will be better than Lexus?
Durable or not, first go to the used car market to see what the price of a car with the same age or mileage is. Second, go to the garage to see what car is being repaired. What's wrong with it? You will know!
Whether the car is good or not, the durable used car market can best explain the problem. Whose car has a high insurance rate fully shows that the conclusions drawn by millions of people in the market from the long-term car use process are useless.
Toyota is famous for its durability in China. It has been widely rumored on the Internet that the phrase "Toyota that can't be opened well, Volkswagen that can't be repaired" doesn't come out of thin air. Toyota has a best-selling car, Corolla, which has been praised wave after wave on the Internet. Commonly known as "grocery cart". Although it looks mediocre, it is very practical. Why do many Corolla private cars drip, with low fuel consumption, low failure rate and few problems? How durable is that? A corolla owner said that his car was 654.38+0.5 million kilometers, and there was no major overhaul. So it also has a good name "Toyota of the world"
I have a friend who drives a Toyota land patrol car. He once said that "Mercedes-Benz G can take you to every corner of the world, and Toyota Land Patrol can bring you back from every angle of the world". I believe that riders who have run through the Sichuan-Tibet line should have a deep understanding.
In addition, Toyota cars are mostly used in some underdeveloped countries in the Middle East and Africa. Their environment is extremely bad, the roads are bumpy and sometimes they have to drive in the desert. It's time to test the durability of cars.
The above are personal opinions. Welcome friends with different opinions to comment in the message area.
The answer to this question is very simple. Just go to the used car market for a few laps and find a few different models that are more than eight years old. Audi q started in July, 20 12. Now, like the plane, it is equipped with an auxiliary fuel tank, which burns oil seriously. I wonder when the oil lamp will give you an alarm. My brother-in-law, Toyota, started bullying people a year ago, except scratching. I was deeply moved by my own statement.
The durability of a car is mainly reflected in the engine. Some people say that the durability of Toyota cars is reasonable because Japanese engines are better than European engines, which is the common sense of many people.
Japan's water army is the largest, and it has always raised itself, and it is black in the country. Compared with other brands of cars, we know that Japanese is not worth mentioning.
