Does the new car come with a trunk mat?

The new car does not come with a trunk mat. The functions of a trunk mat: Prevents items from rubbing against and damaging the car when placed inside. Prevents direct contact between items (such as glass) and the car, which could damage the items. Additionally, using a mat can reduce vibration effects, making items less prone to damage. It also prevents spills from liquids like soup, which could stain and affect the car's appearance. Furthermore, it helps prevent items in the trunk from sliding around. Types of trunk mats: Thick base materials can block noise from the chassis and tires, enhancing driving comfort. TPR-type trunk mats can also absorb residual noise and echoes from the car's audio system, protecting hearing from damage.
As an enthusiastic car owner who often helps friends with car purchases, I've noticed that most base-model new cars indeed don't come with trunk mats as standard. Last month when I accompanied a buddy to pick up his Honda CR-V, the salesperson straight up said only the top trim includes it as a freebie - others need to be purchased separately. However, dealerships often throw in all-weather floor mats and trunk mats as complimentary gifts during delivery. When I bought my Volkswagen, they gave me a complete set. If they don't offer any, buying your own is easy - you can find vehicle-specific TPE material mats online for around 100 yuan. They're waterproof, wear-resistant, and take just two minutes to install. My advice is to clarify the freebie list before taking delivery. If nothing's offered, invest in a quality one yourself, especially for friends who love road trips. Last time I transported seafood and some juice spilled - just hosed down the mat and it was clean, while the original fabric lining would've been ruined.
