  There is a huge amount of brands and models cars, but they are almost identical in structure. Any car consists of several main parts : body, transmission, engine, running part and engine control systems and electrical equipment. Each of these parts consists of many details, but for a simple driver it is enough to know the main points. Basic knowledge of the car will help in some situations without the help of specialists from the service station, which can save the car owner budget. Let's look at these main points of each component of the car separately.

  car body

  the body of the machine is one of the most important parts of the car that performs several functions at a time. First, it is a load-bearing structure , which secures and connects all nodes and units in the car design.Secondly, the body gives the car a look and protects its inner parts from external influences.

  As an interesting fact, it can be noted that in the first decades of automotive development instead of a body, a frame was used to which all the details were fastened. However, in the process of development of the automotive industry, the designers decided to replace the frame with the body to reduce the total mass of the machine. So the second name of the body appeared - a lightweight frame structure.

  But this applies to cars. But some SUVs still have a frame structure that is much more durable and practical than the body and allows you to install such tuning as lift complexes and so on.

  a modern body consists of several basic components such as:

  • roof of the machine;
  • a sliding compartment for placing the power unit;
  • front and rear spars - durable metal beams that are attached to the bottom and protrude in the suspension support;
  • bottom - it is welded with various reinforcement elements and hinged elements, such as front and rear wings, hood, luggage lid and door.

  It is important to understand that the body type is not only a functional part of the car, but also its business card. Therefore, car manufacturers pay special attention to the design and quality of the body to create a car that will be both convenient and functional and attractive from the outside and will be able to meet the needs of each buyer.
