Does the Volkswagen Tharu have a manual transmission?

Currently, the Volkswagen Tharu models on sale do not offer a manual transmission. The Tharu features a refined and boxy exterior design, including chrome trim with diamond-pattern accents on the grille, independent turn signal design, concave rear styling, chrome-trimmed exhaust tips, and a silver skid plate. The side profile boasts smooth and muscular lines, with sharp character lines extending to the taillights, paired with door creases that exude tension and precision. The Tharu's interior follows Volkswagen's T-shaped dashboard layout, offering two color schemes: Elegant Black and Sophisticated Brown. The steering wheel feel, ergonomic seats, and driver-oriented infotainment screen tilt are signature Volkswagen design elements in recent years. Standard features include an 8-inch touchscreen, tire pressure monitoring, automatic parking, rearview camera, ESP stability control, HHC hill-start assist, and MKB multi-collision brake system. The Tharu is powered by either a 1.4T or 2.0T engine, delivering maximum power of 110kW (150hp) and 137kW (186hp) respectively, with peak torque of 250N·m and 320N·m. All models are equipped with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

What should I pay attention to when going to the driving school for the first time?

Here are some precautions for beginners when practicing driving: 1. Before turning into a narrow gate, first visually assess whether you can enter. Do not turn too close to obstacles near the gate, and try to minimize the turning angle. 2. To "embed" the car in the middle of a row of parked cars, use the reverse parking method. Use the rearview mirror to align the midline of the front vehicle's head as a reference. When half of the rear wheel passes this line, start turning the steering wheel to reverse. Once the vehicle is two-thirds in, straighten the steering wheel. 3. Be decisive and firm when overtaking or changing lanes. Stay as close as possible to the vehicle in front, especially on two-way lanes, to save time. When changing lanes, carefully observe the traffic in the adjacent lane through the rearview mirror, assessing both distance and the speed of the following vehicle. Only change lanes when it is safe; otherwise, the lane-changing vehicle will be fully responsible in case of a collision. 4. The key to shifting gears is learning to listen to the engine sound. When the speed is high but the gear is low (dragging), the engine will make a buzzing noise. Conversely, when the speed is low but the gear is high, the sound will be unusually loud, and the car body may shake. Generally, after starting, shift to 2nd gear once the car is moving, and shift to 3rd gear at around 40 mph.

Should the accelerator pedal be continuously pressed while driving?

When driving, it is not necessary to keep pressing the accelerator pedal continuously; it depends on the road conditions. While driving, if there is no need to decelerate or stop, the right foot should remain on the accelerator pedal (vehicles with electronic cruise control do not require continuous pressing of the accelerator pedal after activation). Here are some techniques for correctly using the accelerator pedal: 1. The operation of the accelerator pedal should use the right heel placed on the floor of the driver's compartment as a pivot point, with the sole gently pressing on the accelerator pedal, using the ankle joint's extension and flexion movements to press or release. When pressing or releasing the accelerator pedal, the force should be gentle, achieving a light press and slow release. 2. When starting the engine, do not press the accelerator pedal all the way down; it is better to press it slightly above the idle speed. When starting off, it is advisable to apply a bit of throttle just before the clutch engagement point, with the throttle opening at a moderate level. Releasing the clutch should be closely coordinated with pressing the accelerator, and the action should be swift. 3. During operation, the accelerator should be increased or decreased according to road conditions and actual needs. The selected gear should be appropriate, allowing the engine to operate mostly at medium speed and larger throttle openings to save fuel. When shifting gears, the coordination between adding empty throttle, pressing the clutch, and pressing the accelerator pedal should be harmonious.

Do I need to wait for the left turn green light at an intersection without a U-turn signal?

If there is no U-turn signal, and the gap is marked with a dashed line, the U-turn is not affected by the left turn signal and does not require crossing the pedestrian crossing. If the gap is marked with a solid line, then the U-turn must cross the pedestrian crossing and is subject to the left turn signal. Making a direct U-turn without following these rules may result in being photographed or penalized by on-site traffic police. If you need to cross the pedestrian crossing to make a U-turn, you must yield to pedestrians: When pedestrians are walking on the right side of the crosswalk and have not reached the centerline of the road, vehicles on the left side of the road should slow down and allow them to pass safely. When pedestrians are waiting outside the boundary line of the motorized and non-motorized lanes and have not entered the roadway, vehicles should slow down and allow them to pass safely. If pedestrians have crossed the boundary line between the motorized and non-motorized lanes, vehicles that do not stop to let them pass are committing a violation and should be penalized. When pedestrians enter the motorized lane (Lane A) via the crosswalk, vehicles in Lane B should slow down and allow them to pass safely. If vehicles in Lane A do not stop to let them pass, it is a violation and should be penalized. If pedestrians are waiting at the centerline of the road without entering the motorized lane, vehicles that do not stop to let them pass are committing a violation and should be penalized. If pedestrians cross the centerline of the road and enter the motorized lane, vehicles that do not stop to let them pass are committing a violation and should be penalized. If the road is divided by a green belt and pedestrians are waiting in the middle of the road, vehicles must slow down and allow them to pass safely. Scenarios where U-turns are allowed: If there is a U-turn sign at the intersection, you can make a U-turn. If there is a U-turn signal light, follow its instructions. If there is no signal light, make the U-turn based on the specific situation, ensuring it does not interfere with other vehicles or pedestrians. If the intersection does not explicitly prohibit U-turns or left turns, you can make a U-turn. 'No explicit prohibition' means there are no 'No U-turn' or 'No Left Turn' signs, and the centerline is not solid. U-turns are also allowed in yellow grid zones. Yellow grid lines indicate no-stopping zones, typically at intersections prone to congestion or near important facilities. While stopping in these zones is prohibited, U-turns are allowed unless there is a central barrier. If there is a U-turn signal light at the intersection, you must wait for the green light to make a U-turn. If 'No Left Turn' and 'U-turn Allowed' signs appear together, U-turns are permitted, but left turns are not. Note that 'No U-turn' is not the same as 'No Left Turn'. Things to note when making a U-turn at an intersection: Check the road markings. If they are solid lines, U-turns are prohibited under any circumstances. Continue driving to find a suitable spot. If there is a 'No Left Turn' sign, even if there is no explicit 'No U-turn' sign, U-turns are not allowed because U-turns inherently involve a left turn. U-turns must be made from the innermost left-turn lane. If you are in the second left-turn lane, U-turns are not permitted at that intersection. Always yield to oncoming traffic when making a U-turn. If you interfere with straight-moving vehicles, you will bear full responsibility for any accidents. Near the stop line at intersections, lanes usually have guiding arrows. The leftmost lane does not always have a left-turn arrow—if it has a straight arrow, U-turns are prohibited even if there are no explicit 'No U-turn' signs.
