What Are Winter Grille Covers For, And Are They Necessary???

If you're looking to take the best possible care of your car through the winter, you need to think about winter auto grille covers. They can offer some important, but often overlooked, benefits when it comes to keeping your car running smoothly and making it more pleasant for you to drive through the winter months.

But what are they, and what do they do?

What Are They?

Grille covers are, as the name implies, covers designed to fit snugly over the grille of your car. They come in various shapes and sizes - you can find universal ones which are usually cheaper, but offer a looser fit; specially made aftermarket ones; and some manufacturers even offer them as OEM parts.

What Do They Do?

A car grille cover will have several benefits through the colder months, primarily helping to prevent ice building up in your ventilation system. This can happen anywhere, depending on the conditions, whether it be overnight while your vehicle is parked up, or even when driving if it's cold enough.

Another common issue during winter is dirt, grime, and grit being thrown off the road - winter is a time when salt is used more frequently, which means there is a higher chance of the front of your car being caked in filth as you drive. A grille cover can help prevent any ingress into your engine.

Something else to consider is how quickly your vehicle heats up on a cold day. Depending on the vehicle you have, it may take a while between you turning the heating system on and actually getting hot air through the vents. No matter what vehicle you’re driving, there is also some loss through your grille to the outside world. A grille cover will help to keep the heat generated by the engine circulating around the engine bay, which means a warmer car interior. You’ll use less energy heating your car this way, and therefore save money in the long run.
