How to Determine if a Vehicle is New When Taking Delivery?
1 Answers
Common methods include checking the mileage or the production date. A mileage between 10-30 kilometers is considered normal, and a production date within three months is also typical. Below is a detailed introduction to specific methods for determining if a vehicle is new: 1. Vehicle identification plate: The identification plate is located on the engine compartment wall or the front door frame. Check the production date on the plate; if it is within three months, the vehicle is considered a normal new car. 2. Exhaust pipe: Inspect the inner wall of the exhaust pipe to see if it has turned black. If a layer of black residue can be felt, it indicates the vehicle's mileage is slightly higher than the normal range. 3. Tires: New tires have small, noticeable bristles, also known as tire hairs. These bristles are usually worn off after the vehicle has been driven 50 kilometers or more.
