When selling a car without the engine and transmission, the depreciation is likely to be more than 50%, as these two components are the most critical parts of a vehicle. Engine: The car engine is the device that provides power to the vehicle, serving as the heart of the car. It determines the vehicle's power, fuel efficiency, stability, and environmental performance. Transmission: The transmission is located between the clutch and the central drive. Its main functions are to change the vehicle's driving force and speed (shifting) without altering the engine's speed and torque; to allow the vehicle to reverse (direction change); and to enable the engine to stop without stalling.
