There is no protective plate under the car fuel tank. Extended information is as follows: 1. Pros and cons of installing a protective plate for cars: Pros: To protect the engine, especially the oil pan. Cons: It may affect the engine's downward collapse during a collision, as the engine is designed to collapse downward in a crash. Installing a protective plate might hinder this process, potentially leading to more severe injuries to passengers. 2. Reasons why high-end cars are equipped with underbody protective plates: Besides offering some protection to engine components, these plates help maintain the flatness of the chassis, creating a better aerodynamic environment. 3. Deciding whether to install a protective plate based on personal circumstances: 1) Install if driving conditions are poor: If you frequently drive in harsh environments, it's advisable to install one. 2) Not necessary for city driving: If you mainly drive on well-paved roads in the city, installing a protective plate won't make a significant difference. 3) Choose resin or plastic materials: If concerned about affecting the engine's downward collapse, opt for a resin protective plate. Resin or plastic materials offer less resistance during engine collapse.
