Pickup _ Pickup transliteration, the model is a light and small truck.
The basis of analyzing why pickup trucks are "specially treated" is to understand the characteristics of the models. It cannot be denied that pickup trucks are truck models, and there is nothing to make a fuss about according to truck management; There are regional restrictions on trucks in overseas automobile industry and economically developed countries. Even in North America, which is recognized as a "paradise" by many "well-known", there are many cities that restrict large vans from entering the urban area. Ordinary trucks can enter, but basically no vehicles will choose to enter, because parking fees are basically three figures an hour. Why?
As a production tool, trucks have large total mass and volume, and the flexibility of passing through narrow urban roads is poor; Facing the mixed road surface, its acceleration and braking ability is also unmatched by small and micro passenger cars. The popular description is that trucks will slow down the overall speed of traffic and increase road safety hazards; Therefore, it is scientific in theory that trucks will always be restricted to driving in non-automobile high-density areas. But pickup trucks are not restricted in North America. Why?
Automobile Culture _ Difference
American pickup trucks are basically "big", such as the well-known Ford F series, Chevrolet Sorod, Dodge RAM 1500 and GMC Sierra. These pickup trucks are classified as D-class large cars according to the standards of domestic first-class passenger cars. But it's not very big in America. The first reason is "National People's Congress", followed by the concretization of "cowboy culture" and "robber culture"; The former makes people generally like tall and powerful horses, but this is a tall and powerful car in the industrial age, and the latter is not suitable for discussion.
What is the basis for the formation of automobile culture?
Standard answer: spending power. There is no denying that the per capita disposable income in North America is higher. If the spending power allows, you won't worry too much about buying a car or using a car. Therefore, even a "big and heavy" pickup truck with large displacement and high fuel consumption is generally acceptable as long as it can afford it. However, China's per capita disposable income is even lower. Even if the pickup truck can be considered in the process of buying a car, if the fuel consumption is comprehensively considered, it will be discouraged.
The second factor: rulemaking. There are "international standards" for the management of medium and heavy vans, but apart from the cost of pickup trucks, there are also differences in the division of vehicle positioning at the level of rules, which of course has a lot to do with the development stage of the automobile industry. For example, if we learn from the vehicle classification regulations of the former Soviet Union, the requirements for pickup trucks will be a bit harsh; Therefore, it is normal that there will always be differences in the management of similar vehicles in different regions.
Pickup _ Spring is coming.
1.20 18 Cancel printing and stickers on pickup trucks.
2.20 19 Cancel the requirement of double certificates for pickup trucks.
3. Accelerate the lifting of restrictions on pickup trucks in 2020.
Key points: Before the end of 2020, the restrictions on pickup trucks should be cancelled in prefecture-level cities and administrative regions below the prefecture level. That is to say, by 202 1, only a few provincial capitals and municipalities directly under the central government may restrict pickup trucks, and more than 90% cities will no longer restrict pickup trucks.
Summary: With the upgrading of consumption and the maturity of the automobile industry, pickup trucks can also achieve low power consumption, low noise and low emissions. This kind of vehicle will no longer damage the urban environment, and strict "electronic overload control" also ensures that pickup trucks will not damage roads more seriously than other models. Therefore, pickup trucks have also ushered in spring, and this truly multi-purpose "van" will become the third most popular model after SUV.
