Citroën and Peugeot are not the same company; they are two distinct automobile manufacturers. Both are French brands but do not belong to the same company. Taking the 2018 Citroën DS5 as an example, it is a mid-size car with the following dimensions: length 4530mm, width 1871mm, height 1520mm, wheelbase 2727mm, fuel tank capacity 60 liters, and curb weight 1600kg. The 2018 Citroën DS5 features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.6T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 167PS, maximum power of 123kW, and maximum torque of 240Nm, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission.

What is the purpose of high horsepower with a small gear ratio?

The purpose of high horsepower with a small gear ratio is to amplify the torque at the driving wheels. Assisting in driving out of difficult situations: In practical usage scenarios, it helps in driving out of tough spots or climbing slopes. For example, when large trucks or buses start climbing a slope, when heavy off-road vehicles navigate through mountains and rivers or wade through water to escape difficult terrain, or when private cars climb steep slopes fully loaded—these situations rely on high horsepower with a small gear ratio to provide high torque. Indeed, it cannot be ignored that under high horsepower with a small gear ratio, the engine operates at very high RPMs, resulting in rough driving quality, high fuel consumption, and relatively low speed. Introduction to horsepower: Horsepower refers to how quickly the engine performs work; higher horsepower means faster work output. Horsepower plays a crucial role in the engine's power characteristics across its entire speed range. It determines the car's continuous acceleration capability and top speed. Torque reflects one-time acceleration ability, while horsepower reflects sustained acceleration ability.

Is It Safe to Keep a Portable Gas Stove Canister in the Car?

Keeping a portable gas stove canister in the car is not safe. Flammable and explosive items: The portable gas stove canister contains flammable and explosive gas, and it is indicated that the storage temperature should not exceed 40 degrees Celsius. In summer, the temperature inside the car can exceed 60 degrees Celsius, which can easily cause the portable gas stove canister to explode and catch fire. Therefore, for the safety of the car, it is best not to keep the portable gas stove canister in the car for a long time. Portable butane gas stove: The portable gas stove, also known as a portable butane gas stove, refers to a non-fixed cooking utensil that uses butane gas as the main fuel, with liquefied gas and other gases also being used as fuel, and is directly heated by fire. It is mainly used for outdoor leisure activities and hotel supplies. With its small size and portability, it is a newly emerging kitchen utensil in recent years, often used in hotel equipment and family outdoor activities.

What is the normal tire pressure for the 14th-generation Sylphy?

The normal tire pressure for the 14th-generation Sylphy is generally between 2.3-2.5 bar. For the exact recommended tire pressure, you can refer to the vehicle's user manual or the label near the door (attached to the B-pillar or C-pillar), which displays the manufacturer's recommended value (cold tire pressure). According to the international GBT2978-2008 standard, the tire pressure for different types of tires is as follows: Standard tires: 2.4-2.5 bar; Reinforced tires: 2.8-2.9 bar; The maximum pressure should not exceed 3.5 bar. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced friction and adhesion of the tires, affecting braking performance; Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; Increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Overstretches the tire cords, reducing elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving; Decreases puncture resistance. When encountering sharp objects like nails or glass, the tire is more prone to punctures, and impacts may cause internal cracks or blowouts, leading to tire failure.

What is the range of the pure electric vehicle ID.3?

The range of the Volkswagen ID.3 New Energy is 430KM, equipped with a 57.3kWh ternary lithium battery, and this data is the official NEDC announced figure. The Volkswagen ID.3 New Energy is a compact pure electric model with dimensions of 4261mm in length, 1778mm in width, and 1568mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2765mm. The range is directly related to the three-electric system (battery, electric drive, and electric control) of the electric vehicle. Battery System: The capacity of the power battery directly determines the range. Additionally, excessively high or low temperatures of the battery system can also affect the range. With the same battery capacity, more stable battery temperatures better ensure the range. Electric Drive System: Mainly includes the drive motor, controller, inverter, and reducer. Its efficiency is determined by the ratio of input power to output power. When the battery capacity is fixed, under the same voltage, the output energy is determined by the efficiency of the drive system. Automakers will fully explore motor efficiency and electric control efficiency to optimize energy consumption and improve the range. Vehicle Control System: Mainly refers to coordinating the relationship between the battery, drive system, and chassis brake energy recovery. Under frequent acceleration and deceleration conditions, the proportion of energy recovery (braking energy recovery) can be dynamically adjusted based on the battery's state and braking needs, thereby improving energy utilization efficiency. In addition, the braking energy recovery strategy of electric vehicles will directly increase the vehicle's driving range.

Which country produces the Kawasaki H2?

Kawasaki H2 is manufactured in Japan. Kawasaki H2's supercharger: The supercharger of the Kawasaki H2 was designed with the assistance of companies within the corporate group, including gas turbine machinery companies and aerospace companies, to match the characteristics of the 998cc inline-four engine used in the motorcycle. To perfectly transmit the crankshaft power to the supercharger, a planetary gear designed by Kawasaki Aerospace Company was used. It has the advantages of small size and low loss. The entire device has a crankshaft amplification ratio of 9.2 times, meaning that when the engine reaches the redline speed of 14,000 rpm, the supercharger blade speed will reach as high as 130,000 rpm. Kawasaki H2's supercharger blades: The supercharger blades of the Kawasaki H2 are made by 5-axis CNC cutting from a single piece of forged aluminum, with a diameter of only 69mm. The impeller consists of six large and six small blades, and the base is intentionally designed with small grooves to help airflow. At one atmospheric pressure, when the air velocity in the intake pipe reaches 100m per second, the supercharger blades can deliver 200 liters of air per second, and after supercharging, the air pressure can reach 2.4 times.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the 2010 Buick LaCrosse in liters?

2010 Buick LaCrosse has a fuel tank capacity of 70 liters, which is the officially announced data. Owners of the 2010 Buick LaCrosse can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The 2010 Buick LaCrosse requires 92-octane gasoline, with a fuel consumption of 9.4 to 10.4L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 673 to 745 kilometers. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel in the tank. This is usually observed through the fuel gauge inside the car. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when there are about 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the car manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit, and there is additional space from the safe limit to the tank opening. This space is designed to allow for fuel expansion when temperatures rise, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity.
