Today, we are always pursuing all kinds of freedom: financial freedom, travel freedom, cherry freedom ... Unfortunately, at the beginning of the new year of the Boxer Rebellion, we added another item to our "freedom list": "freedom of mask" under the COVID-19 epidemic.
There seems to be nothing wrong with car companies in fighting the epidemic, but there are still some companies with long sleeves and far-reaching supply chains, trying their best to burn their own small universe and turn the original auto parts production line back to serve the country and the people.
They are SAIC-GM-Wuling, Guangzhou Automobile Group and BYD. Thanks to their positive response and rapid production changes, everyone is one step closer to the dream of mask freedom, and their sense of peace of mind has also increased.
As a professional media in the automotive field, Uncle Cherry has evaluated thousands of new cars of various types in the past seven years. The epidemic situation continues, and the supply of masks is gradually slowing down. We might as well change our mood and look at the "mask adults" who accompany us every day.
This time, we will use an ordinary resident's daily experience of masks to simulate the evaluation system of professional car test drive, and make an informal professional evaluation of the performance and real use experience of three disposable medical protective masks in the fields of appearance, interior decoration, configuration, power and control, hoping to give you a preliminary understanding before the masks are sold in the future.
In the face of the epidemic, we have no intention of making fun of it. We only hope to use this topic to reward these three responsible auto companies. They are not only good at making cars, but also good at making masks.
Finally, friendly reminder: masks are precious, please use them with caution.

As the most obvious brand-name product,
The mask value ranks first.
Let's talk about appearance first.
When choosing a boyfriend and girlfriend, we must put face first. No one wants to see Zhong Wuyan or Notre Dame quasimodo all his life.
When buying a car, the first thing is to look at the face value. Nobody wants to be pointed at while driving a monster.
Now, the mask is the second face of people.
No, it should be the first face.
As the picture shows, the mask has exceeded half of the face. If the handsome guy in the picture below wears a mask like Piggy Page, it must be very different from his style.
Therefore, the appearance of the mask, that is, the face value, is the first item we evaluate.
Wuling mask
Among the three masks, the tester likes Wuling mask best. The light color system gives people a warm feeling, and there will be no sense of disobedience when going out on a bright spring day. Think about the coming summer, this light-colored mask gives people a cool feeling. More importantly, the Wuling logo in the upper right corner of the mask is very attractive and highly recognizable.
Since March 16, Wuling masks have been reserved for free all over the country. As the media took the lead in wearing masks, they also felt confident and superior when they went out.
Imagine, in people's curious eyes, how much envy and hatred is hidden in "this boy's character is good enough to rob"?
Hum, laughing at the sky and going out, we are Artemisia people!
Let's take a look at BYD masks. Although the overall tone is light, the bold edges on both sides are still deducted a little. Although I am also a bold person, I don't allow my mask to be so bold. After all, occasional restraint will make men more attractive.
Byd mask
Moreover, this BYD logo is also relatively small and its popularity is insufficient. In contrast, I prefer BYD's Logo in the car.
The evaluator believes that if the three characters of BYD can be displayed in the middle of the mask, there is a sense of locality. After all, among the three car companies, BYD has the highest daily output. As a new mask manufacturer among online celebrities, BYD's strength does not allow him to be so low-key.
Guangzhou automobile mask
Finally, look at the mask of GAC. Appearance, GAC's mask is the deepest color. As a yellow race, this color is low-key, simple and calm, just like the Guangzhou Automobile deity who made a fortune silently.
But unfortunately, there is no logo of GAC on the mask, and the low-key is outrageous. You said that when people go out to wear masks, they are all brand-name products such as Wuling masks, BYD masks, Foxconn masks and Gree masks, but there is no logo on the masks. Isn't it a little too deep to hide their fame and fortune?
Wuling mask: ★★★★★★★
BYD Mask: ★★★★★★★
Guangzhou Automobile Mask: ★★★★★☆.
Summary: Finally, although the protective function is the same, at this moment when only masks can be seen, I hope that all car companies can give full play to their advantages in building cars, improve the recognition of masks and enhance the appearance of products. In particular, I would like to remind GAC when to develop a mask in the shape of Ling Yiyun, because I want to fly higher!
Interior decoration

part
Whether underwear is comfortable,
Is the mask comfortable?
When I was a child, my mother always warned my children that a person's face value is very important, but the most important thing is the heart.
When I grow up, I feel that my mother is only half right. Face value is very important, and the heart is also very important.
As a car, if you only look at the exterior and don't look at the interior, it's like buying a mansion, and the family is sleeping on the floor burning firewood around the wall and watching a black and white TV.
Then, wearing a mask, no matter how big the Logo is, it smells bad. Talking with your mouth closed is like a stroke, and it will definitely fail.
The interiors of Wuling, BYD and GAC masks are also light-colored soft non-woven fabrics, but there are some differences in the interior texture of the three masks.
Above: Wuling mask? China people: BYD masks? Below: GAC mask
Wuling mask has the thickest overall feel and the texture of non-woven fabric is relatively hard. The surface and lining feel rough, but the overall feel is thick and safer. I believe that girls have a deeper understanding than boys.
But everything has two sides. If it's too thick, others think it's good, but it's a little uncomfortable to wear. If it is too thin, it is comfortable and breathable, but the sense of security is slightly worse. It always feels like wearing a see-through dress. Therefore, the masks of the three major car companies are trying to find a balance between thickness.
After the test, it was found that BYD's mask was made of soft material and the lining felt smooth. Guangzhou automobile mask is in between.
Byd mask
In addition, the comfort ranking after wearing is also consistent with the softness of the fabric. BYD masks are the most comfortable and the skin feels softer. GAC mask is slightly inferior to BYD mask.
Above: Wuling mask? China people: Guangzhou Automobile Mask? Below: BYD mask
Comfort is the price of more texture of Wuling mask. Because the non-woven fabric is rough in texture and slightly smaller in size than the other two, the internal space is a little tight for players with big faces, and it is also relatively tight to wear, which is slightly less comfortable.
Wuling mask: ★★★★★☆.
BYD Mask: ★★★★★★★
Guangzhou Automobile Mask: ★★★★★★★
Summary: Generally speaking, in terms of interior, space and comfort, BYD mask is more comfortable, while Wuling mask has a little less space, which is a little sorry for my face. However, the biggest feeling of the tester after the experience is that no matter what mask he wears for a day, there will be ligature marks on his nose and behind his ears, and some lotion is needed to protect his skin.
Manufacturers are expected to produce masks in large sizes. Just like the lengthening of models, the market needs masks from Wuling L, BYD L and GAC L to meet the needs of customers with larger faces.

Low-key and textured,
Health and safety are the key.
Of course, as a mask, the most important thing is the protective function. Appearance and interior are only subjective feelings. At present, safety comes first, and everything else is just floating clouds, which can be tolerated.
The same is true for buying a car. The exterior and interior are fine, but the configuration should not be too shabby. The same is true of masks. Non-woven meltblown fabrics are all necessary. Disposable medical masks are related to health and life safety, and the most basic sanitary configuration must be in place. This can't be sloppy.
Speaking of the mask itself, these three models are excellent. After all, it is an enterprise with automobile production background. Obviously, the technical content of the mask is not too high, and there is no problem. Quality is not lost to professional mask manufacturers.
Above: Wuling mask? China people: BYD masks? Below: GAC mask
In the basic mask structure, the three masks are typical three-layer structures, the outermost layer is waterproof nonwoven fabric, the middle layer is meltblown fabric with filtering function, and the innermost layer is relatively soft nonwoven fabric.
The assembly process is also excellent, the welding seam of the mask is very neat, the layers are closely attached, and the ear strap is quite firm. At present, the supply of masks has not fully kept up, so it is not a problem to reuse them several times.
Above: Wuling mask? China people: BYD masks? Below: GAC mask
Regarding the mask configuration, because the test requires very professional medical equipment, the cherries here will not be ugly, and this will be left to professional medical media. Judging from the evaluation experience of non-professional masks from the perspective of a professional automobile media, the configuration of the three masks has reached the most basic health and safety requirements.

Wuling mask: ★★★★★★★
BYD Mask: ★★★★★★★
Guangzhou Automobile Mask: ★★★★★★★
Summary: Although everyone's workmanship is good, Wuling's mask is the best of the three masks. Generally speaking, the three masks are relatively low-key and textured. After all, it is a necessity of life, the main new year's goods in 2020, and the most conspicuous fashion item. Configuration should be worthy of yourself. In this regard, all three masks are doing well.
dynamic control

Breathing smoothly is very important,
It is also important to run with large displacement and high power.
After driving a car and talking about objective things such as appearance, interior and configuration, the most important thing is of course the subjective feeling of power and control, and the one that suits you best.
A mask, if the power is insufficient, will lead to shortness of breath after wearing it, just like gas poisoning, and certainly not.
Why do people like to buy cars with large displacement and high power? Because it's fun to drive when running at a critical moment.
The same is true of masks. It is the most basic to wear free air every day. However, if you do large-capacity exercise, run a step to climb a mountain or something, you will be panting and short-circuited in a few minutes, which is definitely not possible.
Left: BYD mask? China people: Wuling mask? Right: Guangzhou Automobile Mask
We make a simple comparison of the transmittance of three masks to sunlight or light, and we can see that all three masks are quite thick, which is essentially different from many inferior products bought online. Of course, in order to test its protective ability, we also tested its waterproof performance.
Wuling mask

Byd mask
After testing, even if it is watered, all three masks belong to high-profile disposable masks. After testing, it will not leak water at all. After pouring out the water, it only needs to be shaken a few times, and the surface will dry without wetting the surface or the meltblown cloth layer in the middle. It can be said that the waterproof treatment is quite excellent.
Therefore, from the perspective of waterproof performance, the fineness of these three masks is clear at a glance. It is said that the waterproof performance lasts for more than ten hours, and even lasts for a week if you don't wear it often.
Of course, we don't have such a long test this time. If you are interested, you can make a hanging basket at home to decorate water, and raise flowers and vegetables in a mask to see how waterproof it is.
After waterproof, let's talk about respiratory resistance.
Many underwear ads likes to talk about breathing underwear, which is a bit of false propaganda. What cloth can't breathe? Isn't this nonsense? But waterproof and breathable things, as far as I know, are just masks.
After cherry testers actually put on masks, all three masks can produce good respiratory resistance, indicating that they have the effect of filtering viruses and bacteria.
The breathing resistance of a mask is like the power of a car. The driving force of the car is to let the car go forward, and the resistance of the mask is also the driving force at this moment. In order to make you breathe smoothly and keep your vitality, it will not affect the daily high-power and heavy-load exercise at all. This is very important for outdoor sports and marathon users.
Wuling mask
In view of the fact that all three masks are marked with materials with meltblown cloth layer in the middle, and the resources of masks are relatively tight at present, the ignition experiment of meltblown cloth is not carried out. After all, Wuling, BYD and GAC are all trustworthy enterprises.
Wuling mask: ★★★★★★★
BYD Mask: ★★★★★★★
Guangzhou Automobile Mask: ★★★★★★★
Summary: The strength and control of the mask is related to whether a person breathes smoothly and moves freely. These three masks are all up to standard. But one thing, these three masks, like all disposable medical protective masks, can't avoid the problem of glasses fogging. As a player with myopia as high as 700 degrees, it is inevitable to go out in clouds and fog these days. Therefore, can the mask manufacturers of automobile enterprises introduce the technology of automobile exhaust pipe into the mask and install the exhaust pipe under the mask under the technical upgrade, which can effectively solve the problem of glasses fogging caused by exhalation above the mask?
technical background

Master the core technology,
Spike international automobile brands.
Buying a car depends on the brand and manufacturer. Many people like to buy classic models that have been selling well in the world for decades, such as Corolla, Accord, Mercedes-Benz E, BMW 3 Series and so on. This is a fact.
The masks of car companies also come from technology manufacturers with deep experience in building cars. It can be said that they are all well-known and the quality is guaranteed. Knowing their background will help us understand the technical strength of their masks.
Wuling mask is from Guangxi Baolingkang Medical Equipment Co., Ltd., which is a new company that Wuling applied for in 23 minutes.
Wuling mask
GAC masks are marked with GAC parts and are produced by Guangzhou Wanghua Automobile Electronics Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of GAC.
Guangzhou automobile mask
BYD masks are produced by BYD Precision Manufacturing Co., Ltd., the brother company of BYD Auto, which produces electronic products.
Byd mask
At present, Wuling and GAC masks are mainly used to support the front line and ensure the safe use of production. Wuling masks opened a free APPlication channel in the app on March 16. BYD, with a daily output of 5 million, is the largest mask factory in the world, and has started to supply the Shenzhen market.
Therefore, no matter what kind of mask it is, it is an excellent mask representative of its own brand that is independently developed and masters the core technology.
The mask specifications of Wuling, BYD and GAC are all 10. Although it's not packaged individually, it's quite good. Give me a compliment. But the packaging styles of the three companies are quite different.
Wuling takes a minimalist style, there is no logo on the packaging bag, and all the information is posted on paper. GAC and BYD will mark the details on the package. BYD even printed a note and a traceable QR code on it, which is more detailed. In terms of packaging, BYD masks are even better.
Above: BYD mask? China people: Guangzhou Automobile Mask? Below: Wuling mask
Wuling mask: ★★★★★☆.
BYD Mask: ★★★★★★★
Guangzhou Automobile Mask: ★★★★★☆.
Summary: Car buyers like to buy big brands, but now with the gradual improvement of the quality of their own brands, their manufacturing level and technology level can completely rival international brands. At least this time, the mask technical strength of independent brand car manufacturers completely exceeds that of international brands such as BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota and Volkswagen. This is the pride of China automobile manufacturing!
Look to the future.
With the daily number of newly confirmed cases falling to single digits, the domestic novel coronavirus epidemic has been basically controlled, but we still can't completely relax. At present, the country is gradually returning to work, the flow of school population is increasing, and the risk of imported cases is increasing. Before the vaccine appeared, there was still the risk of infection. Therefore, most of the time this year, people still have to wear masks when going in and out of public places.
The rapid control of the COVID-19 epidemic in China relies on these enterprises that are full of social responsibility and stand up in times of crisis. Although Wuling, BYD and Guangzhou Automobile will not take masks as their main business, it is possible to fully liberalize sales and put them on the market in the future, which is good for consumers.
Through Cherry's informal evaluation of the masks of these three car companies, I believe that everyone has an understanding of the masks of these three car companies in terms of technology, comfort and performance. I hope that after the market is liberalized, everyone can feel their good quality for the first time.
