As summer rolls in, the smell inside your car tends to get stronger. With limited space, these odors can be distracting and even affect your focus while driving. More importantly, harmful substances like formaldehyde, benzene, and TVOC not only have an unpleasant odor but also pose a risk to your health. So, if you notice any smell in your car, it’s important to address it quickly—don’t ignore it.

Question 1: What Causes Odor Inside the Car?

The interior of a car contains a lot of materials such as plastics, rubber, fabrics, paints, and adhesives. These materials often release organic solvents and other chemicals over time, which contribute to the bad smell. New cars tend to be more affected because these volatile compounds are still being released in higher amounts.

Another common source is the air conditioning system. Moisture from rain or snow can collect on the evaporator, mixing with dust and creating a breeding ground for mold. Over time, this leads to a musty smell that comes out whenever you turn on the AC. If not cleaned regularly, this can result in a sour or rotten smell inside the cabin.

Food scraps, spilled drinks, and wet seats or carpets can also lead to mold growth. Even forgotten shoes or clothes left in the back seat can emit bad smells. When the air conditioner is running, these odors circulate throughout the car, making the problem worse.

Personal habits play a role too. Eating in the car, smoking, or leaving things scattered can all contribute to lingering odors. Additionally, parking in areas exposed to sunlight, darkness, or garbage can worsen the situation.

Question 2: How to Manage Pollution Inside the Car?

Many people place citrus peels like orange or grapefruit in their cars to mask the smell. While this may help temporarily, it doesn’t actually remove the harmful chemicals. It just covers up the odor without addressing the real issue.

Car perfumes and air fresheners are also commonly used. However, low-quality products can break down under high temperatures, releasing additional harmful smells. This can be dangerous for the driver and passengers.

A simple and effective solution is to ventilate the car. Before starting the engine, open the windows to let fresh air in. When parked, leave a small gap for airflow. This helps reduce the concentration of harmful gases and makes the air inside more pleasant.

Activated carbon is another option. It absorbs odors and pollutants, and is safe to use. But it has a limited lifespan—about 6 to 10 months—and needs regular replacement to stay effective.

For a more advanced solution, consider using Qingyi Lan Nasen. This material is specifically designed to adsorb and break down harmful substances. Unlike activated carbon, it doesn’t release them back into the air, even when heated. It’s safe for families and especially recommended for new cars during hot weather.

Controlling pollution inside your car is essential for your health. Don’t wait until the smell becomes unbearable—take action early to keep your driving environment clean and safe.
