Choosing a car for a pet owner, A story that may have lost up to 80,000 yen 🐶🐱
One in nine Japanese households has a pet (5.14 million dogs and 5.05 million cats).
But there may be few people who are conscious of "pet perspective" in choosing a car.
Here are 10 numbers you need to know 📝
▼ will be reduced up to 80,000 yen in the assessment
Pet hair 40 points + pet odor 40 points = 80 points deducted.
1 point ≒ 1,000 yen conversion, up to 80,000 yen down (JAAI standard).
In the industry, "The beast smell soaked into the back of the seat is better than the scratches on the exterior
It's easy to lower the valuation. "
Accident rate when riding with pets is 1.89 times
N = Numbers shown in a prospective cohort study for 2000-3 years.
I would like to protect it with a seat belt crate cage.
There is no obligation to bind, but there is a possibility of a fine of 50,000 yen
Article 70 of the Road Traffic Act (violation of safe driving obligation),
Possible imprisonment for up to 3 months or a fine of up to 50,000 yen.
JAF also recommends using seat belts.
▼ Required car requirements vary depending on the size of the pet
For medium and large dogs (about 30% of the total), floor height, openings, and fixed points are important.
Horizontal installation of the carry and prevention of falling are top priorities for the cat.
▼ The trend of how to choose may be different between dog and cat lovers
In academic research, the dog school is "acquisition-oriented" (adventure / expansion),
Cat lovers are suggested to be "preventive-oriented" (safe and quiet).
However, this is not a judgment, but an auxiliary line to objectively view one's own orientation.
When it comes to choosing yourself, it is the right choice 🍋
▼ Finally, "3 Axis 9 Item Checklist"
Loss avoidance (prevent up to 80,000 yen in assessment)
・ Absolute safety (prevent accident rate 1.89 times)
· Lifestyle adaptation (prevent mismatch)
People who have pets have "impulsive pleasure consumption"
Some studies have shown that it tends to increase.
Not just a feeling of "for your dog / cat,"
I want you to go through the checklist once in a reasonable range 🐾

ペットと一緒に車を使う生活では、単なる移動手段以上の配慮が求められます。私自身も中型犬を飼っていて、最初の車選びではペットの快適さと安全性に無頓着だったため、後から後悔した経験があります。特にシートの素材選びは重要で、本革は毛が払いやすく臭いも染み込みにくいメリットがある一方、爪で傷つきやすいためカバーの使用が必須です。ファブリックは毛が絡みつきやすく、臭いの染み込みも問題になるため、こまめな清掃と消臭対策が欠かせません。 また、ペットの安全面から見ても、単に車に同乗させるだけでなく、シートベルト付きハーネスやクレートの使用を徹底しています。これにより、万が一の事故時のリスクを大幅に減らすことができ、とても安心感があります。ある調査ではペット同乗時の事故率が約1.9倍に増えることが示されているため、こうした対策は法律的にも推奨されています。 さらに犬派と猫派で車の選び方に違いがある点も興味深いです。犬とアウトドアやアクティブなライフスタイルを好む飼い主はSUVなど広い空間と乗降性を重視する傾向があり、猫を飼う方は静寂性やキャリーを水平に設置できる車種が好まれます。自身のライフスタイルやペットの性格・体格に合わせて、感情に流されず理性的に選ぶことが大切だと感じます。 査定時に最大8万円の減額を防ぐためにも、日頃からペットの抜け毛や臭い管理を徹底し、シートカバーやラゲッジマットを活用するのが効果的です。私もこの方法で売却時に損失を抑えることができました。 これからペットと車の生活をもっと快適かつ安全にしたい方は、ぜひ「損失回避」「絶対安全」「ライフスタイル適合」の三軸チェックリストを活用し、愛犬・愛猫と長く良いカーライフをお過ごしください。
