New Car Smell
The new car smell is a scent that is commonly encountered in the interiors of new automobiles and other vehicles. The smell is caused by gases emitted from various manufactured materials, such as leather, plastics and textiles. Some people find the smell pleasant, which has led some automobile manufacturers to mimic the desired scents and utilize them to attract customers in show rooms. However, concerns have been raised about the potential health risks of the chemicals associated with new car smell. For example, a study in 2023 found that formaldehyde and acetaldehyde gases exceeded Chinese government safety standards in new car interiors, and researchers recommended that new car owners drive with windows open.
