The parts that are inside of a car may vary depending on the car model, but there are parts that are included in almost all cars. One is the transmission which sends power from the engine to different parts of the car. The second part is the brakes, which stop your vehicle by pressing brake pedals or pushing with shoes against them. Another essential parts of the inside of a car is the steering wheel through which drivers control their vehicle’s direction. Some parts include radios, buttons for speakers, and dials for heaters. There are also many more parts most notably including windshield wipers and fluid pumps. All these parts work together to make up some pretty amazing parts of a car!
Parts of a Car
Steering Wheel
A steering wheel and the system it connects to primarily control the direction of a vehicle. It converts the rotational commands of the driver into swiveling movements of the vehicle’s front wheels. The driver’s movement passes through a series of joints and hydraulic lines in the steering system, ultimately reaching the rubber as it hits the road.
Speedometer
The speedometer shows the pace of the vehicle by measuring how fast it is currently moving relative to distance. The device works by inputting a signal from an inflow shaft, which spins as the wheels turn but has no parts touching them. This rotational force then moves a series of gears that rotate at different speeds and send electrical signals to the electronic parts of the revolving unit (RU), which calculates the speed and display its result on a meter.
Brake pedal
Every car model will have one or more brake pedals/stops in order for you to stop your vehicle. They either use pressure against parts to push them down or shoes against parts to push them down with friction. A master cylinder is used under this type of system, due to the constant amount of parts that are in contact.
Windshield Wipers
The windshield wiper is a blade that is used to clear rain, condensation and dirt from the windshields of vehicles by the simple act of swiping it back and forth. It works via two window wipers with an electrical control unit (ECU) between them. The ECU operates when you push on your steering wheel or hit a button.
Dial Heat
A dial heat system is typically just below or above your radio display screen that will have different temperature settings for either side of your car seat the driver may be sitting on/near. This dial heats up parts surrounding it usually by electricity thus creating hot parts making for luxury driving.
Radios
A radio is a device that uses electromagnetic waves within the parts of your car to play music or any other sound. If you have parts attached to your radio systems such as speakers and parts connecting them, they would be connected to parts like wires and an antenna (which sends and receives signals). Speakers will connect to the parts inside your vehicle while usually having some type of wire connection. On more expensive cars, speakers may not need this wire if it has some parts called “hi-fi” technology built into them that create sounds without needing parts like wires.

This dial heats up parts surrounding it usually by electricity thus creating hot parts making for luxury driving.
Gear Shift
The parts of the gear shift system are parts of the parts like parts on a stick (part that connects to gears) and parts like parts of your hand (which you hold onto). The parts like parts of the stick connected to the parts like gears, which then move up and down causing different things to happen.
Seat Belt
A seat belt is used in vehicles to keep all passengers inside their car while driving. It works by binding together two or more parts called parts of a buckle (an object connecting two parts together), part of a belt end/parts, and a part called a retractor typically in these locations: one near your shoulder in front for your passenger’s side, one across your waist behind you for the passenger’s side, and one in your hip/ parts for the parts of passengers side.
Windshield/Windscreen
The parts of a windshield are parts that you see through to see the parts outside, such as parts on trees and parts on other cars. They work by having parts made up from glass or plastic usually.
Windshield Wipers
The parts of the windshield wipers are parts that are attached to parts in front of your windshield randomly. They work by being parts that randomly go back and forth on parts in front of your windshield clearing parts like dirt and rain from them.
Radiator
A radiator contains parts like water and oil inside while some parts around it (radiators) push parts through them to help cool down parts. You can tell if you have a radiator or not by checking for parts around the engine where heat is needed, such as behind the fan typically.
Heater
A heater has parts that contain some type of heating element for parts inside your vehicle. These parts typically are found near/in front of your windshields blending heat into them for nicer driving/feeling, especially during colder times or places.
Steering Column
The parts of a steering column are parts that contain parts like gears and wires within them to make your wheels turn when parts on the steering wheel are turned. It is connected to the parts of the parts like parts of your feet (the pedals), which then causes different things to happen when pressed down and released, such as parts moving and parts changing speed/direction.
