Will Putting 200 Jin in the Trunk Damage the Car?
1 Answers
Putting 200 jin in the trunk can damage the car. Increased fuel consumption: Keeping heavy items in the trunk for a long time obviously increases the weight of the car. The weight of the car is directly related to fuel consumption—more weight means higher fuel consumption. Generally, for the same car, a 10% increase in weight will result in about 5% more fuel consumption during driving. Higher risk of suspension system damage: Long-term storage of heavy items in the trunk puts continuous pressure on the rear wheels, which also affects the suspension system. This can lead to issues like oil leaks in the shock absorbers or reduced performance, increasing the risk of suspension system damage over time. Additionally, the uneven pressure on the front and rear suspensions can pose safety hazards at high speeds.
