On each car, additional equipment is designed to increase the level of comfort of handling and movement, as well as in order to provide the necessary working conditions.
Depending on the brand of the machine and its model, the list of optional equipment may contain different items. In car dealerships, you can find cars on which they can additionally install a refrigerator, radio, cruise control, air conditioning, satellite alarms, and so on.
In modern auto production, additional equipment for cars includes items such as interior heating systems, windshield washers and wipers, electric headlight range control, heated seats, windows and mirrors, power windows and many other devices.
We can say that in the basic configuration, which does not involve the installation of additional equipment, the car is "empty". If everything that can be installed is installed on the machine, then it will be fully equipped.
It is worth noting that additional equipment began to be installed on cars not so long ago. AC class cars were sold at almost cost, since there was a lot of competition. These were ordinary vehicles that did not have a twist. Marketers decided to change the situation and offered to install additional equipment for the car, which was previously only available for the premium or luxury class.
The list of additional equipment included electric rear window heating. Drivers of old cars can talk about the inconvenience that fogged or frozen rear windows cause while driving. Some of the car enthusiasts even tried to install fans to blow the rear window with warm air.
Power windows are also additional equipment of the car, which was one of the first to be installed. If you look closely, then without it you can
dispense, but on the other hand, this is a very funny and interesting thing, because you do not need to turn the knob, just press the button.
Remembering the first additional equipment, it is worth mentioning the wiper and washer, which were installed on the rear doors of cars. It should be noted that over time, part of the additional equipment went into the standard package.
Thus, the idea of installing additional equipment on cars increased their cost by 30, or even 70 percent, but this did not negatively affect demand, as less and less people wanted to buy a car “without anything”.
However, such devices do not always find supporters and consumers. There is such additional car equipment that not everyone needs. For example, an enlarged fuel tank is suitable for those who intensively operate their cars, as this allows less frequent visits to gas stations. In addition, there is still a lot of equipment that is not at all equally useful for all drivers.
