Why this would be needed

Start inside the user's day · Public facts + workflow reasoning · 2026-09-08

Use case

Car buyers need to compare models, evaluate prices, and get usage advice; owners need help with maintenance, repairs, and selling.

Users currently rely on Autohome website, forums, dealer consultations, and other fragmented channels.

Information is scattered, decisions are time-consuming, and trusted one-stop guidance is lacking.
