Why do many car repair artists recommend buying Japanese cars? What's so good about Japanese cars?
First of all, we set a premise, here we want to eliminate the national plot and patriotic feelings, simply from the car itself to see this matter, please all parties sacred do not do moral kidnapping and moral accusations. Those who say that Japanese cars are "garbage", and that Japanese cars are good is "kneeling", please leave, do not look down.
Secondly, there is one thing I still remember: A few years ago, I took my daughter to the hospital to see a doctor, and I discussed the condition with the doctor without my own strength. This doctor told me directly: If you are not a medical student, please shut up, you are not qualified to discuss medical issues with me. I have been studying medicine for decades, whether it is the accumulation of knowledge or experience, you are not at the same level as me. All you need to do is accept my conclusions and cooperate with the treatment. If someone contradicts me on this issue today, I will send him this sentence.
I am a car repair master myself, I also know a lot of car repair masters, and I also know a lot of sales consultants and after-sales service of 4S stores and used car dealers. They can be said to be all auto industry insiders, the vast majority of the cars they drive are Japanese cars, the general repairmen are Toyota Corolla, Corolla, Honda Fit, Nissan Liwei, Qida, sales consultants to Honda Civic, Accord mostly. If you consult their advice when buying a car, especially for low-end family cars (excluding hybrid and pure trams), they will generally recommend you to buy Japanese cars, including me. Specific reasons, there are mainly the following:
1. Japanese cars have high reliability and low failure rate
No matter how resistant and reluctant you are in your heart, the fact that Japanese cars have high reliability and low failure rates is there, and they cannot be distinguished. This is a world-widely accepted fact, please do not use individual cases to negate this conclusion, I am talking about the overall probability, not the individual survivor bias. I am a car repair master who has been practicing for nearly thirty years, and I also know many, many car repair masters, and the repaired cars are even more than you have seen, what car is good, what car is bad, in our hearts there is a scale, please do not use your amateurism and feelings to challenge my profession.
2. Japanese car leather is durable and has good fuel compatibility
"One car is passed down for three generations, and no one has a car", this is people's ridicule of Japanese cars, but it also shows from the side that the skin of Japanese cars is durable. After a long time and various road conditions, the car can still maintain good driving performance and low failure rate, and the body has no rust and deformation, which is valuable. The durability of Japanese wagons has been effectively verified in Africa, the Middle East and the southwest and northwest of China. In these areas, poor road conditions, poor fuel quality, and untimely maintenance and repair are a great test for the quality of the car, and in the end, the Japanese car passed this test, while other car series unfortunately failed. In many remote areas, they only recognize Toyota's bull head logo, and even have models that have been used for 20 or 30 years. "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and there must be a Toyota car when there is a road" is really not a joke.
In addition, the fuel compatibility of Japanese cars is generally better, that is, lower grade fuel can be used, which is a great advantage in many remote areas. A friend of mine went to Tibetan areas a few years ago to refuel in a remote area, and he wanted to add No. 95 gasoline, but the local gas station told him that we only had "gasoline" and "diesel" here, without sub-labels. If the fuel compatibility of the car is not good, it is difficult to use in these areas. In previous years, there was often news of "high-end cars" nesting in Tibetan areas, the main reason being that it was not suitable for local fuel. Of course, in recent years, with the advancement of infrastructure construction, the road conditions in these areas have become much better, and the fuel quality has improved much, which is becoming more and more rare.
3. Japanese cars are easy to repair and low maintenance costs
If you want to ask the mechanic what kind of car the mechanic likes to repair the most, it is definitely a Japanese car. Why? Because Japanese cars are easy to repair. Japanese cars have left a large space for maintenance in the structure, and the assembly process between the parts is simple, it is easier to disassemble and assemble, various bolts are not easy to rust, and even old cars are relatively easy to disassemble. In addition, the electrical system structure and principle of Japanese cars are relatively traditional, there is no excessive line integration, it is easier to check when a fault occurs, and there are few difficult faults. Because of this, the maintenance man-hour cost of Japanese cars is relatively low, the cost of accessories is not high, and the overall maintenance price is relatively low. Correspondingly, some car series are too difficult to repair, and simply change a common part, you have to disassemble half of the car, such car repairmen are avoided.
4. Japanese cars save fuel and have a high retention rate
Among the major car series in the world today, the fuel economy of Japanese cars is the best, and there is no one. This is also an accepted fact. However, the reason for the fuel saving of Japanese cars is not that Japanese cars are light, but that the engine thermal efficiency of Japanese cars is higher, and the matching with the gearbox is better. The most commonly used speed of the engine is the economic speed range, supplemented by higher transmission efficiency, so that every drop of fuel is fully utilized, of course, it is fuel-efficient. At the same time, Japanese cars are also more sought-after in the second-hand car market, and the retention rate is higher, which is also more cost-effective for users who want to change cars in the later stage.
You see, Japanese cars have high reliability, low failure rate, durable leather, good fuel compatibility, easy repair, low maintenance costs, fuel saving, and high retention rate, which is not our basic need for family cars? Therefore, most of our car repair masters will recommend relatives and friends around us to buy Japanese cars, and the main purpose is to save worry, trouble and money. Of course, niche cars in Japanese cars are also not recommended to buy, such as Subaru, Acura, Infiniti and so on.
Of course, Japanese cars also have shortcomings. Generally, Japanese cars will be more expensive than other models of the same level, the cost performance is not very high, and the car price is still far away from the owner friends; followed by the interior luxury of the Japanese car is not high, the car machine system is generally poor, the sense of science and technology is not strong; there is also the Japanese car paint is generally thinner, the paint hardness is low, easy to be scratched; the power of the Japanese car is general, the starting acceleration is not very fast, the high-speed driving texture is general, there is no particularly stable feeling; finally, the question of the safety of the Japanese car, Although in a variety of crash tests, Japanese cars can get high scores, but in the real road collision accidents, are relatively disadvantaged, especially the appearance of the cover, often fragmented, looks very miserable, although the occupants in the car are safe, but the appearance of the tragic, giving people a bad impression.
