Electric vehicles do not stall because they use electric motors instead of gasoline or diesel engines. Here are specific details about electric vehicles: 1. Introduction: Electric vehicles are vigorously promoted by the state, comply with national new energy vehicle standards, possess production licenses and qualifications, and are officially recognized by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. New energy vehicles include all vehicles powered by energy sources other than gasoline or diesel engines, such as fuel cell vehicles, hybrid vehicles, hydrogen-powered vehicles, and solar-powered vehicles. 2. Driving Method: Pure electric vehicles refer to vehicles powered by onboard power sources, using motors to drive the wheels, and meeting all requirements of road traffic and safety regulations.

I've been driving for ten years and have repaired many traditional fuel-powered cars as well as new energy vehicles. Electric vehicles indeed don't 'stall' like fuel-powered cars do. In traditional cars, stalling means the engine stops working, usually due to turning off the key or mechanical failure. However, electric vehicles are driven by motors, and stopping is equivalent to turning off the power supply, without any ignition or stalling process. If an electric vehicle suddenly stops, it could be due to battery depletion, battery system failure, or software issues. In such cases, the vehicle enters an energy-saving mode with protective mechanisms activated. Many people mistakenly think this is 'stalling,' but it's entirely different. When maintaining an electric vehicle, less attention is needed on engine spark plugs and more on battery health. Avoiding prolonged battery inactivity is key; otherwise, charging failures can render the vehicle immobile.

What are the causes of vehicle vibration at high speeds?

Car body vibration at high speeds can be caused by the following reasons: 1. Inaccurate front wheel alignment angle, excessive toe-in; 2. Low front tire pressure or imbalance caused by repairs or other reasons; 3. Deformation of front wheel rims or unequal number of tire bolts; 4. Loose installation of transmission system components; 5. Bent drive shaft, dynamic imbalance, or deformation of the front axle; 6. Failed shock absorbers, inconsistent stiffness of front leaf springs, or frame deformation. Below are the solutions for car body vibration at high speeds: 1. First, lift the drive axle, place safety blocks in front of the front wheels, start the engine, and gradually shift to higher gears to reach the final test vibration speed of the drive wheels. If both the car body and steering wheel vibrate at this point, the vibration is caused by the transmission system, as the front wheels and axle are stationary at this time. If the car does not vibrate at the final test vibration speed, the issue lies with the front axle. 2. Check if the front wheel alignment angles and toe-in meet the requirements and adjust them if necessary; 3. Lift the front axle and test the wheels, checking for static balance and excessive tire deformation. If needed, replace with a good wheel for comparison; 4. Inspect the front axle and frame for deformation, and check if the drive shaft is bent. Perform a dynamic balance test on the drive shaft if possible; 5. Check the stiffness of the front leaf springs, the effectiveness of the shock absorbers, and whether the spring bracket rivets are loose. Replace if performance is inadequate; 6. Inspect the chassis for looseness and check if the ball joints are worn out.

Which company's engine is used in the GAC Trumpchi GS4?

GAC Trumpchi GS4 is equipped with two different displacement engines. The 1.5L model uses GAC's self-developed 1.5L turbocharged engine, while the other is the latest 200T engine. More information about GAC Trumpchi GS4 engines is as follows: 1. The 1.5L turbocharged engine features dual variable valve timing (intake and exhaust), variable oil pump, silent timing chain, dual-mass flywheel, and GAC's proprietary GCCS (Gasoline-Combustion-Control-System) combustion chamber control technology. Technically speaking, it has reached mainstream domestic standards. 2. The latest 200T engine is a 1.3-liter turbocharged gasoline engine with peak torque reaching 202 N·m. It's precisely because its torque approximates 200 N·m that GAC gave it the resounding name "200T".

What are the reasons for the steering wheel not returning to center automatically?

The reasons for the steering wheel not returning to center automatically are: 1. Damage to the external steering gear or the free play adjustment bolt of the steering gear being too tight; 2. Incorrect toe-in or camber angle; 3. Damage to the suspension bushings, causing severe inner tire wear. The solutions for the steering wheel not returning to center automatically are: 1. Adjust the steering knuckle clearance and apply lubricating oil for lubrication; 2. Perform a four-wheel alignment to adjust the toe-in value; 3. Replace the suspension bushings. Methods to prevent the steering wheel from not returning to center include: 1. Observe the steering wheel angle after parking; 2. Determine based on the number of steering wheel turns; 3. Make adjustments by moving the vehicle forward and backward.

What to Do When the Car Makes a Rattling Noise Upon Releasing the Throttle?

Solutions for abnormal noises when releasing the throttle are as follows: 1. It is recommended to first check whether the valve clearance is too large, whether the fuel injector is damaged, or whether the carbon canister solenoid valve is faulty. 2. If the car makes a clicking noise when releasing the throttle, it could also be an issue with the engine oil. If the oil hasn't been changed for too long, the quality or type of oil may not meet the standards. Another possibility is oil leakage leading to insufficient oil levels. Therefore, remember to change the oil regularly. Engine oil plays a role in lubricating and cooling the engine. The engine is the heart of the car, and the oil is its blood. 3. It might be due to resonance from the under-engine guard plate. Simply tightening the guard plate can resolve this issue. Another possibility is a broken catalytic converter, which can cause a sand-like noise during driving.
