Shift to third gear at 30 km/h. Specifically, when the vehicle speed reaches 20 km/h and the engine speed reaches around 2000 rpm, you can shift to third gear. Speed reference: First gear corresponds to a speed of 0-5 km/h. Second gear corresponds to a speed of 5-20 km/h. Third gear corresponds to a speed of 20-40 km/h. Fourth gear corresponds to a speed of 40-60 km/h. Fifth gear corresponds to a speed of 60-100 km/h. Shifting timing: The general shifting timing for most cars is when the engine speed reaches 2000 rpm, and should not exceed 2500 rpm. For some high-displacement, high-power engines, shifting can be done around 3000 rpm.

What model of lithium battery is used in the GAC ix4?

GAC ix4 uses the CATL TZ220SA5H01 ternary lithium battery. Introduction to ternary lithium batteries: Ternary lithium battery is a type of lithium battery. The positive electrode of a ternary lithium battery is made of ternary materials, some of which are made of nickel, cobalt, and aluminum, while others are made of nickel, cobalt, and manganese. Advantages of ternary lithium batteries: Ternary lithium batteries are also known as "ternary polymer lithium batteries," referring to lithium batteries that use lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide or lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide as the cathode material. Due to their smaller size, higher energy density, and better performance in low temperatures, ternary lithium batteries are now widely used in new energy vehicles. For example, Tesla, as is well known, uses ternary lithium batteries in almost all of its car models.

What is the effect of ignition advance angle on the engine?

The effect of ignition advance angle on the engine is: 1. An excessively large ignition advance angle will reduce the engine's power, increase fuel consumption, and cause poor idle performance; 2. An excessively small ignition advance angle may result in backfiring in the exhaust pipe and intake port backfire phenomenon. The control methods of ignition advance angle include: 1. Initial ignition advance angle; 2. Knock control; 3. Knock control methods. The ignition advance angle refers to the spark plug firing in advance before the engine piston reaches the compression top dead center. It is the angle through which the crankshaft rotates from the moment the spark plug fires until the piston reaches the compression top dead center.

How long should a car warm up normally in winter?

In winter, a normal warm-up time for a car is between half a minute to one minute. During this period, the engine speed should be maintained within the range of approximately 2000 to 3000 RPM, with the speed being relatively stable without significant fluctuations, and the car body should not exhibit noticeable shaking. After this, you can drive at a low speed for 3 to 5 minutes before proceeding with normal driving. The primary reason for warming up the car is that after being parked for an extended period, the engine oil flows back into the oil pan at the lower part of the engine. Upon ignition, the upper part of the engine is initially without oil and lacks lubrication. It takes about 30 seconds after starting for the oil pump to circulate the oil to the components that require lubrication the most, such as the pistons, connecting rods, and crankshaft.
