Old Tie, don't ignore these small details on the car.

2016 65438+1October 4th, I remember very clearly, it was my first day as an automobile editor.

In the third grade of primary school, I was particularly impressed by several things. Until now, I often show them scene by scene in my mind: in the first scene, I used a ballpoint pen, blue, which was a treasure at that time; The second scene is a summer vacation after school, a girl and I are cleaning the classroom. I inadvertently looked up and saw the afternoon sun shining through the classroom glass on half of her face without a flaw. For the first time, I feel that girls are different from boys. In the third act, my dog Beibei disappeared, and I secretly cried in the corridor. The fourth scene is the homework continued from the textbook "Little Photographer". I couldn't do it. I cried with my mother until the evening 10.

The Little Photographer is the most impressive text in my primary school, and there is no one, because it was my first formal composition creation. Before this, I have never met an after-school exercise that I can't do. I am at a loss for this open topic which is different from looking at pictures and talking, so I am very sad. It is from this time that I began to hate writing. But I never dreamed that when I grew up, this child who couldn't write a sequel became a lousy car editor. Life is really exciting and helpless.

I don't think a qualified car editor can't "test drive in the cloud", so as long as there is an opportunity to test drive in the early stage, I will seize it. Whether it's driving a colleague's car out for dinner or the test drive that the company leader just brought back, the most active one is definitely me. After 1 years, the cars I have used basically cover the common models on the market, and the articles I have written finally have my own opinions. The biggest change is that I can tell the difference between the two cars I have driven.

I mention it here, don't underestimate this "skill". Before you drive 80 cars, it is difficult for you to feel the difference between the two cars, not to mention the "texture, toughness and chassis attainments" of some car critics.

Later, after doing it for a long time, I found that ordinary people really don't value the details of the car at all.

Ignoring the view inside the car is the first point. Years ago, I went back to my hometown because of the annual inspection of vehicles. An old classmate decided to reward himself with a car to celebrate his admission to the civil service, which happened to be used for his daily commute. Knowing nothing about cars, he pulled me up and went to Toyota's shop to drill.

C-HR and Lei Ling in the exhibition hall are his favorite models. They told me a lot before getting on the bus. I asked him to get in the car first and experience it. He sat on it and fumbled for it. When he got off the bus, he praised the steering wheel for being easy to touch, the exquisite door handle and the comfortable seat. Barabara ... My first feeling when I sat on it was that my vision was too narrow, which was not suitable for him as a novice and was not conducive to safety. C-HR's words are too expensive, which is not good for his wallet. He didn't notice the view of the back window at all. I mentioned it casually, and he suddenly realized.

It may be because we are driving an old car, the front windshield and side windows are particularly large, and we are used to a wide field of vision, so every car pays special attention to the field of vision when testing. As many people have said, Artz is particularly easy to drive, and people and horses are integrated. But when I drive, I feel that its vision is too narrow, it is difficult to judge the parking space, and it is not suitable for everyone to drive. Many people never pay attention to this detail when buying a car.

In addition to the field of vision, the importance of steering wheel adjustment should also be taken seriously.

In my previous shopping guide article, I may take pains to explain a configuration, that is, does this car have 4-way steering wheel adjustment? I started to notice this thing shortly after I tried driving the Audi A7. Before that, I only tried to drive a car with the steering wheel adjusted up and down. When I spent five minutes trying various sitting postures, I found that one posture was particularly comfortable when I was driving, that is, you can control the rhythm of the whole car and sit comfortably in the driver's seat, and the premise of all this is that the seat adjustment and steering wheel adjustment of the vehicle are careful enough.

I mean, if your seat and steering wheel are automatically adjusted, then you can easily find a driving posture that suits you best. If the seat is a car that can be adjusted one by one, the seat can only be adjusted up and down. Unless your figure is standard enough, there is a great chance that you will not find your most comfortable sitting position. After a long journey, it is either backache or backache. The more tolerant the steering wheel, the more likely you are to get the closest to perfect driving posture.

In addition to the above two, I found that many people have weak awareness and understanding of driving safety.

There are many friends around to buy cars. How many airbags does this car have? Whether the door is thick enough, whether the front and rear bumpers are suitable ... Then I went back to watch various crash tests and analyze various data. At this time, I will say to them: Are you really willing to give your life to a car?

Even if there are 20 airbags in the whole car, the doors are inlaid with iron sheets and bulletproof glass, it is not as good as a driver with high safety awareness. I have always believed that the safety of a vehicle depends on the driver, not the configuration of the vehicle. Of course, the more complete the active and passive safety configuration in the car, the higher the chance of accidental survival, but how to avoid accidents as much as possible is the most important concern.

For example, if I drive by myself, the speed limit is 120, but my old car is obviously unstable at high speed, then I will drive100; If the speed is fast and the braking distance is long, I will keep a good distance; The big truck is seriously overloaded, you never know if it will stop, so stay away from it, don't stay in front of it or behind it ... instead of piling up a bunch of configurations, it is better to improve your driving level seriously and practically.

Write it at the end: few people can sum it up by themselves after driving. They can actively sum up their own shortcomings and keep their habits after each driving, and gradually form their own driving style. If you drive for a long time without summarizing your driving skills, it is equivalent to just driving from point A to point B every day. If you don't make progress, you will gradually become numb. Finally, you will become a "car-hater" who thinks that driving will only waste energy, and the fun of driving will gradually disappear.
