U+F902 "車" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+F902 "車" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a compatibility ideograph that represents a variant form of the Chinese character for "vehicle" or "car," which is normally encoded as U+8ECA "車" in the CJK Unified Ideographs block. This character was included in the Unicode standard primarily to facilitate round-trip conversion between older character encoding standards, such as the Korean KPS 9566 or certain Japanese and Korean industry standards, and modern Unicode text. It does not introduce a new semantic meaning but rather duplicates an existing character for compatibility purposes, so its use in new content is generally discouraged in favor of the unified version to avoid confusion and ensure consistent text processing.
