What is a Car Welcome Pedal?
2 Answers
Car welcome pedal is an automotive accessory used to decorate the car's threshold area, serving to protect and beautify the vehicle body. It falls under the category of car modification products. The welcome pedal is mainly installed on the mudguard panel beside the car door, with one for each of the four doors. The design of the car welcome pedal varies according to different car models. The characteristics of the car welcome pedal are: 1. Made of stainless steel, with a smooth and shiny appearance, easy to install, and providing certain anti-collision and anti-scratch functions; 2. Fully compatible with the car itself, protecting the threshold that is prone to scratches when getting in and out of the car, and enhancing the texture of the interior.
I think car running boards are mainly small steps installed at the edges of the front doors. Having used them for many years, I find them particularly practical. They make it easier to step up when entering the car, especially helpful for children and the elderly, preventing falls. They also protect the car's paint, avoiding scratches from curbs or stones when opening doors, which could otherwise lead to costly and troublesome repairs. They're even more useful in rainy weather—if the board has an anti-slip design, stepping on it feels secure, and you don’t have to worry about water stains dirtying your shoes. Many vehicles like SUVs come with them as standard, but compact cars may require aftermarket installation, with prices ranging from a few dozen to a few hundred yuan. When choosing, consider the material's durability—iron ones tend to rust. Overall, this little gadget makes daily driving more convenient and safer, and it's definitely worth recommending.
