How to Quickly Remove Odors from a New Car?

To remove odors from a new car, you can place some orange or tangerine peels inside the car, as well as some activated charcoal. Additionally, it's important to frequently open the windows for ventilation, which can quickly eliminate the odors inside the car. More methods for removing odors from the car are as follows: 1. Place activated charcoal in the car: Put several large bags of activated charcoal both in the front and back of the car to effectively absorb odors. However, every once in a while, place the bamboo charcoal bags under direct sunlight for more than 2-3 hours to refresh them. 2. If you drive for long periods, you can purchase an air purifier. During hazy or windy weather, turn on the recirculation mode along with the air purifier to block out some external pollutants. 3. Use the air conditioning to remove odors. If opening the windows is not an option, use the air conditioning's external circulation mode to maintain airflow inside the car. Regularly clean the air conditioning system, as it can accumulate harmful gases over time.
That new car smell is really a headache. I keep the windows open every day for ventilation, opening all the windows before leaving in the morning to let fresh air circulate. When parked in the underground garage, I deliberately find a spot near a vent. Sometimes I take the car for a spin on the highway to let the air flow through. Additionally, placing lemon slices or orange peels in the car helps absorb odors; bamboo charcoal bags also work—I bought a few and placed them in the trunk and on the floor mats to absorb the plastic smell. Sunlight is another effective method, as UV rays can break down odors, so I always park outdoors on weekends with the doors open for half an hour. Finally, regularly cleaning the interior, like seat covers, helps because dust tends to trap odors. After sticking to this routine for a week, the smell becomes much lighter.
