Stick it to save 20%!?
Fuel-saving cards sold by a company in Xiamen
Is it really so magical?
……
@Owner, pay attention
Don't be fooled
Can you save 20% of your fuel by sticking it?
Improve the air conditioning power and acoustics of your vehicle?
With the continuous growth of China's car ownership, the market size of China's auto aftermarket has also grown steadily at an average annual rate of 8%. In this huge automotive aftermarket, various fuel-saving products are emerging in an endless stream. Some merchants even sell the so-called fuel-saving cards, which are claimed to be able to achieve a fuel saving effect of 5% to 20% on the car.
In Xiamen, the reporter arrived
A company that claims to produce fuel-efficient card products.
The person in charge of the company introduced it to reporters
Their products were developed by a company in Malaysia,
They bought the patents for sale in the country.
This so-called fuel-saving card is simply attached to the vehicle
It can achieve a 20% fuel saving effect.
To test your claims,
The person in charge showed reporters his own vehicle.
The reporter saw,
The fuel-saving card is tied to the car's oil intake pipe with a rope
The person in charge told reporters
Just fix it that way
No action is required to achieve fuel savings
It was even ok
Improve the air conditioning power and acoustics of the vehicle
It's so magical
Xiaobian heard about this new skill for the first time
So what is the price of this so-called fuel-saving card?
How many do you want to post?
The person in charge of an automobile fuel-saving truck company in Xiamen, Fujian Province, said:
Fuel-saving cards are now very mature,
You can feel it immediately when you stick it on
Significant increase in power,
The engine sounds quieter and picks up faster.
One is priced at 298 yuan,
Paste according to the displacement of the car,
For example, the displacement of 1.0 to 1.9 is two stickers,
2.0 to 2.9 displacement stickers three sheets.
Experts say there is no scientific basis for fuel-saving cards
The essence is deceiving consumers
In addition to the so-called fuel-saving cards,
Reporter on a shopping site
Various types of fuel-saving equipment have also been found.
The prices of these devices are in
Tens to two hundred dollars,
Known as after installation
A car can run an extra 100 kilometers with a tank of oil,
Only the OBD interface of the car needs to be plugged in to take effect.
Industry insiders told reporters,
These so-called fuel-saving cards
There is absolutely no scientific basis for this.
Fuel-saving equipment though claimed
The program of the vehicle can be changed through the OBD interface,
Compared with fuel-saving cards, it is more scientific,
But the essence is still deceiving consumers.
Wang Jian, automotive industry analyst of an automotive information service platform in Shanghai: In general, if we want to change the model of ECU (electronic control unit), in fact, we need a dedicated ECU (electronic control unit) detection software and brushing tools, simply through the OBD (vehicle self-diagnostic system) interface is not possible, we as users do not particularly believe in the so-called fuel-saving products on the market.
Zhang Yufeng, Executive Director of Beijing Zhongwen (Shanghai) Law Firm: If it is defined by law, it may be false publicity to deceive consumers, and the corresponding regulation of this behavior in the field of civil law is the consumer rights and interests protection law, the anti-unfair competition law and the advertising law.
CCTV exposure!
Some fuel-saving products are promoted as pyramid schemes
@ The majority of driver friends
Please keep your eyes open to "golden eyes of fire"
Look over
Oil card false propaganda chaos
Some fuel-saving products joined
It is called micro-business promotion, which is actually a pyramid scheme
It was found by the reporter's investigation
The market price is 298 yuan of fuel-saving cards, if it is an agent to pick up the goods, the price becomes 80 yuan, if it is the so-called team pickup, the price can be reduced to 60 yuan a piece. So what does this so-called team mean?
Search for fuel saving cards on the Internet, you can see the official websites of multiple brands, all of which are marked with investment information on the page. The reporter contacted one of them, saying that he wanted to represent the product, and the person in charge of the company told the reporter that it was best to form a team first, only in this way could the sales scale be formed.
The person in charge of a car fuel-saving truck company in Xiamen, Fujian Province: If you don't have a team like you, you can't do too much. You may take a few hundred pieces of the same, but also can not take too much, because like their team, I produce one or two thousand at once, they can take it, the cost, if you are large, you can give you 60 yuan, not 80 yuan. So the profit margin is very large, but the sales channel is very critical.
The person in charge said
Pick-up price 60 yuan,
A card market price of 298 yuan,
The profits in this are huge,
But the biggest problem is
How can these effects be questionable for fuel-saving cards
Pitch it out!
The person in charge told reporters: As long as a micro-business team is formed, one level is sold to the next level, leaving enough profit margins for each level, as long as there are enough people to pull, you can make a lot of money.
Reporter: How many people does the team need?
The person in charge of a car fuel-saving truck company in Xiamen, Fujian Province: The team does not need to say too many people, but if there is a team before itself, it can develop thousands of people.
The person in charge repeatedly stressed to reporters,
As long as the team is done well, there will be huge profits!
Legal sources told reporters,
This method is
By dividing multiple levels,
Let each level of agents take the price differently,
High-level agents rely on the development of subordinate agents
to get huge income,
Essentially, it belongs to MLM.
Zhang Yufeng, executive director of Beijing Zhongwen (Shanghai) Law Firm: In fact, in China's legal system, there may be two levels involved, one level, that is, the pyramid scheme behavior stipulated in the regulations prohibiting pyramid schemes, which actually belongs to one category of administrative punishment, and the other is the level of criminal punishment, that is, the level of organizing and leading pyramid schemes.
This matter has also triggered heated discussions among netizens

Xiaobian came to popularize how to save fuel correctly
Reject the "Oil Tiger"
Eight tricks teach you to save fuel
01 Reduce the load in the car
Many car owners treat the car as a mobile one-bedroom, and the trunk is equipped with various household equipment, glass water, barbecue grills, car wash tools, etc. These temporary tools do not need to be placed in the car for a long time. As we all know, the larger the weight of the car, the higher the unit fuel consumption, and the car will consume 1% more gasoline for every 5 kilograms of weight gain. Therefore, it is recommended that only the necessary tools be kept in the car, such as fire extinguishers, jacks, etc.
02 Opening the window may not save fuel
In order to save fuel, car owners like to open windows for ventilation, but they do not know that this practice may not save oil but will increase fuel consumption. Under the actual measurement of high-speed driving, the wind resistance consumption after opening the window is more than the fuel consumption of the air conditioning system, on the contrary, when driving at low speed, the fuel consumption of the window ventilation is lower than the fuel consumption of the air conditioning system, and the critical point can generally be set at 80km/h. As long as the owner grasps the principle of opening the window at low speed and opening the air conditioner at high speed, he can effectively reduce fuel consumption.
03 The speed of the car is moderate
Each car will provide a reference speed for the owner, and the speed of 50-60km/h is the best state for fuel saving and sewage. Therefore, the owner should try to maintain a uniform speed, do not try to rush to the accelerator or brake for a moment of pleasure, resulting in a slow and fast speed, the fuel consumption of the heavy throttle can reach 2 times the normal start, and slamming on the throttle can save a meal. At the same time, the owner should prejudge the road conditions in advance, collect oil and slow down, save fuel while reducing the wear of parts, and kill two birds with one stone.
04 Familiar with the driving route
Shorter driving age of the owner of the car due to the unfamiliar route, the detour phenomenon occurs from time to time, fuel consumption and route proportional, the longer the route, the more gasoline consumed, the owner should plan the route in advance before going out, choose a route that is both close and not easy to block, economic conditions allow it is recommended to increase the quality navigation equipment, not only can voice guide the route, ensure driving safety, but also display real-time road conditions, so that the owner can prepare early.
05 Avoid empty stepping on the throttle
This phenomenon mostly appears under traffic lights, due to the long waiting time of red lights, the owner habitually hangs the gear to the P gear, and when the green light is not changed in time, the throttle is directly stepped on, the sound has been sounded, the car has not moved, it is very embarrassing. Data show that stepping on the throttle 10 times is equivalent to burning 60 ml of gasoline.
06 Grasp the timing of the shift
Effective gear shifting can provide excellent performance in terms of fuel saving. After the speed of the standard in time to change gears to avoid the phenomenon of "car shock", low-speed and high-end low-speed increase fuel consumption, in addition, high-end low-speed transmission is relatively large, the engine in order to maintain stability, the need to inject more fuel, so the high-end low-speed also costs fuel.
07 Maintain standard tire pressure
The tire pressure of the car will naturally decrease with time, and the tire with too low tire pressure will increase the driving resistance and fuel consumption, and it is also prone to puncture. If the car does not have its own tire pressure monitoring function, it is recommended that the owner buy a tire pressure gauge by himself and test it at least every two months.
08 Parts need to be inspected frequently
Some key fuel-saving components need to be paid attention to. First of all, the problem of engine carbon deposition, too much carbon deposition will promote increased fuel consumption, so once there is a chance to contact the inside of the engine, it is necessary to remove the carbon deposit remaining on the piston to avoid further increasing fuel consumption. Secondly, the air filter has the status equivalent of the human lungs, which is responsible for purifying the air and also affects fuel consumption in disguise.
