Which is larger, 1:24 or 1:32 car model?
1 Answers
1:24 is larger. Assuming a car's length is 5 meters (500 centimeters), a 1:24 model would be approximately over 20 centimeters. Below is relevant information: Car Model Scale: Car model scale refers to the proportional reduction factor that manufacturers strictly adhere to when scaling down the actual vehicle size. Common scales include 1:10, 1:12, 1:18, 1:24, 1:43, 1:64, as well as 1:87 (HO) and 1:150 (N scale). Taking a sedan as an example: 1:12 ≈ 40 cm, 1:18 ≈ 25 cm, 1:24 ≈ 18 cm, 1:43 ≈ 10 cm, 1:64 ≈ 7 cm. For other vehicle types, the model length can be calculated by dividing the actual vehicle length by the corresponding scale (and so on). Car Models: Similar to stamp collecting, coin collecting, and antique collecting, car models also bring endless joy to collectors and are favored by car enthusiasts. As a result, various automobile manufacturers have followed suit, releasing new car models alongside their actual vehicle launches. The first Buick-branded car model appeared in 1925, followed by various European brands from countries like the UK and France. Unlike toys, which only require similar outlines and movable functions to emphasize fun and satisfy gaming psychology, higher-end car models feature details like body paint, engines, transmissions, wheels, lights, and rearview mirrors that closely resemble real cars.
