What does 'track' mean in a car in Chinese?

track refers to switching radio channels, commonly used in audio systems. Below is an introduction to equipment related to track: 1. Signal source equipment: Signal source equipment includes FM radio devices and playback devices (such as cassette tapes or CDs). 2. Radio: A radio is a device specifically designed to receive broadcast programs. 3. Speaker system: Speakers are crucial components that determine the audio performance inside the car, serving as the terminal of the car audio system. To enjoy stereo effects, two or more speaker systems are used in the car. A multi-speaker system does not combine speakers with the same characteristics but instead reproduces the optimal frequency range of each speaker, eliminating unwanted frequencies. 4. Amplifier: The amplifier boosts the voltage and power of the program signals to drive the speakers and produce sound.
The term 'track' on a car usually refers to the wheel track, which is the distance between the center points of the wheels. I remember when I first started driving, experienced drivers often mentioned this parameter as it affects the vehicle's stability and handling. For example, during high-speed turns or on bumpy roads, vehicles with a wider wheel track have a much lower risk of rolling over and feel more stable to drive. I once modified a car to widen the wheel track for a cooler look, but I overlooked tire matching, which caused the tires to protrude and wear out quickly. The modification specialist advised against altering the factory design casually to avoid affecting suspension lifespan or increasing fuel consumption. Generally, the factory wheel track is optimized for the vehicle model—SUVs, for instance, often have a wider wheel track to enhance off-road capability. It's recommended to check the user manual to understand your car's wheel track value, as this is quite important for daily driving safety.
