Does Car Width Include Side Mirrors?

Car width does not include side mirrors. Below is the relevant content introduction: 1. Definition: The vehicle width is defined as the distance between the two endpoints in the width direction of the vehicle, i.e., the distance between the most protruding positions on the left and right sides of the body. According to industry common rules, the vehicle width does not include the extended width of the left and right side mirrors, meaning the most protruding position should be selected when the mirrors are folded. 2. Width mainly affects seating space and maneuverability: The advantage of a wider body is that rear passengers will not feel crowded, greatly improving ride comfort. However, an overly wide body can reduce the convenience of parking in urban areas. The generally accepted upper limit for the width of ordinary cars is 2 meters.
