Motor transport

I study at the faculty of the Mechanical Controllable systems of the Bratsk State Technical University. My future speciality will be motor transport.

Motor transport is a kind of transport for carrying freight and passengers along railless roads on short and long distances.

Now we can’t imagine our life without motor transport. The main tasks of transport are to ensure timely, high-quality and full satisfaction of the needs of the economy and the population in conveyance.

There are the following groups of autos: transport vehicles, special-duty lorries and racing cars. Transport vehicles are for carrying cargo and people they are divided into cargo carrying cars and buses. Racing cars are meant for contests.

The auto consists of the following components: a)the engine; b) the framework; c) the mechanism that transmits the power from engine to the wheels; d) the body.

Now motor industry continues developing and perfecting. General vehicle configuration becomes very important area of change. The cars are expected to be smaller, lighter, more efficient. Low pollution automotive emissions are technologically possible. Modern vehicles are equipped with electronic devices. Automatic control of automobiles and trucks on highway becomes a practical reality.

I believe that despite environmental, sociological, technological considerations an interesting future lies ahead for the automotive industry.
