What is the Difference Between a Flooded Car and a Waterlogged Car?

[StRosalie]

Below are the differences between a flooded car and a waterlogged car: Different concepts: A flooded car refers to a vehicle that has been submerged in water, typically involving the engine and transmission being soaked, with the water depth exceeding the wheels and body seats, and the vehicle's bottom components being in prolonged contact with water. Such vehicles pose significant risks, as the electrical circuits are prone to short circuits and fires. A "waterlogged car" refers to vehicles that, due to heavy rain, were not moved in time by their owners from underground garages or low-lying areas and were submerged in water for an extended period. Different degrees of water ingress: A flooded car refers to a vehicle directly submerged in water, with the water depth exceeding one-third of the wheel height. In reality, both wading and submersion affect the vehicle, with the extent of the impact depending on the water depth. A waterlogged car has been submerged for a long time, with a higher degree of water ingress than a flooded car.
