Japanese cars compared with German cars in the safety of what difference, first of all need to point out that it is related to a lot of people have the cognitive misunderstanding, that is, "Japanese car filling big skin thin unsafe". The specific origin of this statement is not available, but the main basis is that some Japanese cars have a thin car shell material, and even press down with your hand can be pressed out of a mark, so when an accident occurs for the protection of the occupants of the car is not good enough.
But in fact, the impact of occupant safety, in addition to airbags, electronic body stabilization systems, these are mainly the strength of the body frame, the thickness of the body skin is basically irrelevant, specifically to determine the safety of a car or not to look at the collision results. However, it is undeniable that in low-speed driving collisions, generally speaking, the shell of the thicker and harder German cars will be relatively more advantageous, at least the shell of the degree of deformation will be a little smaller.
Next from the economic point of view to compare the two, first of all, the first is the fuel consumption, which is a Japanese car has always been a strong point, many of its models from the beginning of the design of the fuel efficiency as a priority project, lightweight itself can have an advantage in fuel consumption, coupled with a number of Japanese family cars are used in the CVT infinitely variable transmission, so the fuel consumption can be further low, so the Japanese car can also further reduce, so the Japanese car is a good choice. Overall, Japanese cars are more fuel efficient than German cars.
The second item is the late maintenance costs, high durability vehicles will naturally save more money, the first few years when the German car, Japanese car quality is very stable, but more than a certain number of years of use, the Japanese car durability advantage will be shown, "repair bad Volkswagen, open not bad Toyota," this sentence, although a little radical, but not bad. Although some radical, but not empty.
But it should be noted that the German car durability is not as strong as the Japanese car, because its design and selection of materials is not like the Japanese car as the use of life in the first place, but will take into account the performance of the vehicle performance, in the use of parts and components to meet the basic requirements of the German car will focus on improving the vehicle's dynamics, maneuverability, comfort and these above.
So this is going to lead to a very obvious advantage that German cars have over Japanese cars, and that is the quality of the chassis and the NVH control brought by the vehicle driving quality. German car chassis vibration filtering and noise isolation ability is usually higher than the Japanese car, which not only makes its ride comfort has been improved, but also increase the stability of the vehicle driving.
