What is the name of the car front cover?
1 Answers
The front cover of a car is called the hood, also known as the engine cover, while the cover at the back of the car is called the trunk lid. Functions of the car hood: Airflow guidance: The air resistance and turbulence generated by airflow around the car directly affect the car's movement trajectory and speed. The shape of the hood can effectively adjust the direction of airflow relative to the car's movement and the resistance it generates, reducing the impact of airflow on the car. Assisting driving visual safety: During driving, the driver's forward visibility and the reflection of natural light are crucial for correctly judging road conditions and the situation ahead. The shape of the hood can effectively adjust the direction and form of reflected light, thereby reducing the impact of light on the driver. Facilitating maintenance: Routine tasks such as adding windshield washer fluid, engine oil, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and coolant all require opening the engine hood. Additionally, the hood needs to be opened when repairing certain faults.
