What is the temperature difference between black and white cars in summer?
1 Answers
When the interior standards are the same, the temperature inside a black car is generally 5 degrees higher than that inside a white car. Factors affecting the interior temperature include not only the car's color but also the interior color, materials, and the car's sealing. Compared to black cars, white cars have many advantages. White cars are more durable, as dust on the body is less noticeable, and minor scratches are generally invisible. They are also more visible when driving, enhancing safety. In summer, white cars reflect most light sources, absorbing less heat and keeping the interior cooler, while black cars absorb most light, resulting in a higher interior temperature. Precautions for vehicles in high temperatures: Avoid exposing the vehicle to direct sunlight. Prolonged exposure can cause paint oxidation and increase interior temperatures, further oxidizing internal components. It is advisable to park in shaded areas or under trees. On clear days, slightly lowering the windows can help release hot air from the interior, reducing high temperatures inside. Do not leave flammable or explosive items in the car. Alcohol, lighters, certain low-quality perfumes, and power banks can easily self-ignite under high temperatures. Install sunshades on the front windshield. Sunshades not only reduce sunlight exposure on the windshield but also protect the interior, slowing down aging.
