Should You Use Recirculation or Fresh Air Mode When Running the Car AC?

When turning on the AC for cooling or heating, first activate recirculation mode to quickly lower or raise the interior temperature. Once the temperature stabilizes, appropriately switch to fresh air mode to ventilate with outside air. However, this isn't absolute. The following four situations should be considered specifically: 1. Road conditions: Use fresh air mode on highways. 2. Vehicle condition: New cars typically contain higher concentrations of toxic gases like formaldehyde. For the first 3-6 months after purchasing a new car, it's recommended to use fresh air mode plus open windows to enhance air circulation and dilute toxic gas concentrations. 3. Air quality: Unless the air quality is good, recirculation mode is advised to avoid excessive inhalation of PM2.5 particles. 4. Season: In summer with AC running, recirculation mode is recommended; in winter when using heating, remember to switch to fresh air mode.

What are the body dimensions of the Changan CS75PLUS?

The body dimensions of the Changan CS75PLUS are 4670mm in length, 1865mm in width, and 1700mm in height, as per official data. The length of the Changan CS75PLUS refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane, touching the outermost protruding points at the front and rear of the vehicle. The width refers to the distance between two parallel planes aligned with the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane, touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding points on both sides. The height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and its supporting plane. The Changan CS75PLUS is equipped with either the Blue Whale next-generation 2.0T high-pressure direct injection engine or the Blue Whale next-generation NE1.5T high-pressure direct injection engine, paired with an 8AT transmission. The 1.5T engine delivers a maximum horsepower of 188 HP and a peak torque of 300 Nm, while the 2.0T engine offers a peak torque of 390 Nm. National regulations govern vehicle dimensions. According to the national standard GB1589-89, the total width of a vehicle excludes side mirrors. The width limitation ensures sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. This means that, under national standards, the significance of vehicle width data lies in providing adequate space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle. Additionally, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5 meters to meet public road usage requirements.
