Heat in China: Cars with bloated stomach show bizarre episodes

The rising temperatures in different regions of the world have an impact on the well -being of people, but also on the cars they drive. In China in particular, some vehicles are on everyone's lips due to extreme heat conditions. This is the result of a viral video that shows the bizarre appearance of "pregnant" cars.

The effects of the summer heat on vehicles

Current temperatures of up to 37 degrees in Chinese metropolises such as Beijing and Shanghai lead to a remarkable phenomenon: large bubbles form on the bonnet of some vehicles, especially Audi and VW. This has documented a video that was shared on platform X (formerly Twitter). According to Jennifer Zeng, a human rights activist and author, this happens when the heat leads to extreme conditions for the vehicle surfaces.

What causes the "pregnant cars"?

The video has attracted the attention of many users. Some commentators suspect that bladder formation cannot be explained by the heat alone. Experts and users point out that the vehicles shown are likely to be provided with vinyl foils that have a hard time suffering from the high temperatures. This means that the vehicles are not actually deformed, but react to the foils to the heat.

costs and consequences of the foiling

The costs for a full fully foiling of a vehicle can be up to 5000 euros, which is a significant investment for many owners. The ADAC warns that these foils, depending on the quality, have to be renewed every two to ten years. In the blisters caused by the heat, early renewal could be necessary, which is annoying for drivers, especially if traffic safety is in question.

prevention measures for drivers

In order to avoid the formation of such bubbles, drivers are advised to park their vehicles in the shade or in a garage during the heat wave. This is not only important for aesthetic reasons: a high temperature in the car can be dangerous for children and animals, especially for children and animals. In addition, there are health risks from germs and fungal spores in poorly maintained air conditioning systems.

conclusion: an example of climate change

The "pregnant cars" in China are an interesting example of the direct effects of climate change on the everyday life of people. These phenomenal phenomena, which initially appear amusing, also raise questions about the long -term consequences of extreme temperatures on the infrastructure and safety in road traffic. It remains to be observed how these trends will promote the discussion about temperature increases and the need for sustainable solutions.
