What is a pimp (car)

Lapping is a derogatory term. On the one hand, manufacturers want to solve consumers' aesthetic and visual fatigue, but on the other hand, they don't want to invest more R&D funds, so they make some small changes in the appearance of existing models to cater to market changes and consumers' tastes, so as to achieve the purpose of upgrading.

However, there is no essential difference between the vehicle itself and the previous one, only some changes have been made in appearance, as the saying goes: change the soup without changing the medicine; Just like the very popular plastic surgery, double eyelid surgery, rhinoplasty and breast augmentation surgery, a person is still the same person, who can be recognized at a glance, but looks slightly handsome. That's how the meaning of pimping comes from.
