Will carrying 400 jin in the trunk damage the car?
2 Answers
Carrying 400 jin in the trunk will not damage the car, as there is no specific data requirement for the load capacity of a car's trunk. Below is a related introduction to the car trunk: Introduction to the car trunk: The trunk of a car, as the name suggests, is the place where spare items are stored and goods are loaded. Since small cars are divided into two-compartment and three-compartment types, the trunks of cars also vary in size. Generally, the trunk contains the car's spare tire, emergency kit, onboard tool kit, warning triangle, fire extinguisher, car refrigerator, emergency fuel cap release cable, and in some high-end models, the starting battery is also located in the trunk. Trunk maintenance methods: If the plush part of the trunk gets dirty, it should be cleaned. The correct method is to use multi-functional foam or a brush to clean the dirt. Also, pay attention to the edges and grooves of the trunk. Additionally, during the cleaning process, ensure that the dirt along the edges and grooves of the trunk is thoroughly cleaned. After cleaning, perform odor treatment again.
I've been driving for almost 20 years and have carried heavy loads in my car before. 400 jin, which is 200 kilograms, is really not light. Generally speaking, the maximum load capacity of a regular family car's trunk ranges between 150 to 300 kilograms, and sedans are particularly prone to being overwhelmed. If you accidentally overload, the suspension might sag and deform, the shock absorbers could wear out faster, the tire sidewalls may easily get damaged, and it could even affect braking performance. When I was driving an old sedan, I once loaded about 180 kilograms of luggage, and the suspension system ended up failing, costing me thousands in repairs. So, never casually stuff too-heavy items into your car. Always check the user manual to confirm the load limit, and weigh or estimate the load before carrying heavy items. An occasional overload might not cause immediate harm, but long-term overloading can lead to serious problems. Car maintenance is crucial—prevention is better than cure.
