Flood-damaged cars can be used if the engine has not been flooded. Additional information: Flood-damaged cars: Flood-damaged cars refer to vehicles that have been submerged in water, typically meaning the engine and transmission have been soaked, with the water level exceeding the wheels and vehicle seats, and the bottom components of the vehicle being in prolonged contact with water. Such vehicles pose significant risks, as the electrical circuits are prone to short circuits and fires. Classification: Commonly referred to as flood-damaged cars or water-immersed cars, these are vehicles where the water level has reached about one-third of the wheel height. If the bottom of the vehicle body is submerged in water for an extended period, the extent of water immersion can vary greatly. Flood-damaged cars can be categorized into three levels: if the water level exceeds the vehicle's chassis, it is called a water-immersed car; if the water level exceeds the oil dipstick, it can be referred to as a semi-flooded car; and if the water level has surpassed the engine hood or the instrument panel, it is called a fully flooded car.

How Many Wheels Does a Sedan Have?

A sedan has four wheels plus one spare tire. Extended information about tires is as follows: 1. Introduction: Tires are circular elastic rubber products mounted on various vehicles or machinery for ground rolling. They are usually installed on metal rims to support the vehicle body, cushion external impacts, achieve contact with the road surface, and ensure the vehicle's driving performance. Tires are often used under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and high and low temperatures during operation. Therefore, they must possess high load-bearing performance, traction performance, and cushioning performance. Additionally, they are required to have high wear resistance and flex resistance, as well as low rolling resistance and heat generation. 2. Performance: As the only component of a car that contacts the ground, the performance of tires directly affects the safety of the driver and passengers. For this reason, various countries have established clear requirements for tire safety performance. With the rapid advancement of the automotive industry, consumers have begun to pay attention not only to the safety performance of tires but also to the overall comfort, handling stability, NVH, and other performance aspects of the vehicle.
