What is the Mechanism of Automotive Performance Degradation?

[LeKingston]

Automotive performance degradation mechanisms can generally be categorized into tangible wear and intangible wear: I. Tangible wear can be divided into the first type of tangible wear and the second type of tangible wear: 1. The first type of tangible wear refers to the loss caused by the decline in automotive performance due to damage such as friction wear, deformation, and fatigue of components under load; 2. The second type of tangible wear refers to the chemical and electrochemical interactions between components and external media during idle periods, leading to corrosion of metal components, aging and deterioration of non-metallic products, and even loss of functionality. II. Intangible wear can also be divided into the first type of intangible wear and the second type of intangible wear: 1. The first type of intangible wear refers to the depreciation of the original model's value due to advancements in science and technology reducing the reproduction cost of cars with the same structure (same model); 2. The second type of intangible wear refers to the depreciation of the original model's value due to advancements in science and technology producing new cars with more advanced and efficient performance.
