This is really a misleading message that can hurt people.
The new traditional fuel vehicle is easy to get water into the engine when wading in the water, and it is damaged instantly when the water enters. The battery and motor of the new energy vehicle are sealed, and there will be no immediate damage and scrapping. However, just because there is no immediate damage does not mean that there is no damage.
I will list a few points of damage to the car after wading into the water.
First, the suspension system, steering linkage and other parts of the car are lubricated, and after wading, its lubricating oil may fail and need to be re-oiled, otherwise those parts will be easily damaged.
Second, although the electric car does not have a gearbox, it also has gears and transmission mechanisms in it, which have lubricating oil, and water is likely to seep into it after wading. If not treated in time, water destroys the lubricating oil inside and can lead to excessive wear and tear on the parts.
Third, if the height of the water reaches the door position, the water will also enter the car along the gap in the door, and if it is not cleaned in time, the interior will become moldy and smelly. At the same time, after reaching this water level, many parts of the chassis may rust.
Fourth, although the battery and motor of new energy vehicles are sealed, over time, these seals may fail, and these important components may be damaged after wading, so the maintenance cost is not low.
Fifth, the lights, radars and other electrical appliances of new energy vehicles are the same as those of traditional fuel vehicles, they do not have a good waterproof seal, and these electronic devices may be damaged by water when wading.
