Full-time 4WD vehicles should not be towed for extended periods or at speeds exceeding 20 km/h. 4WD: 4WD refers to a vehicle that maintains four-wheel drive throughout the entire driving process. The engine's output torque is distributed to the front and rear wheels at a fixed ratio. This drive mode ensures excellent off-road and handling performance at all times. However, it cannot adjust torque distribution based on road conditions and has relatively higher fuel consumption. On-Demand 4WD: On-demand 4WD is controlled by a computer chip that switches between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. On normal road surfaces, the vehicle operates in two-wheel drive mode. When encountering off-road conditions or wheel slippage, the computer detects and automatically distributes power to the other two wheels.

How long can a truck's annual inspection be overdue?

Truck annual inspections cannot be overdue for more than 30 days, and the inspection must be completed within the same month. After a truck is registered, it requires an annual inspection each year. After ten years, it requires two inspections per year. The documents needed for vehicle annual inspection include: the vehicle's registration certificate, valid compulsory traffic insurance policy, and vehicle and vessel usage tax. Precautions for vehicles that have not undergone annual inspection: Accident liability: For vehicles that fail to undergo annual inspection on time, the driver will bear full or primary responsibility for any traffic accidents caused, and the insurance company will not be liable. This is because the insurance policy specifies that vehicles with expired inspections are among the excluded from coverage. Mandatory scrapping: According to the "Mandatory Scrapping Standards for Motor Vehicles," if a motor vehicle fails to obtain an inspection compliance mark for three consecutive inspection cycles after the expiration of its inspection validity period, it will be mandatorily scrapped. The purpose of annual inspection is: To check whether the engine, chassis, body, and auxiliary equipment are clean, intact, and functional; whether the vehicle's paint is symmetrical and aesthetically pleasing; whether major general components have been replaced and match the initial inspection records. To verify whether the vehicle's braking performance, turning maneuverability, lighting, exhaust pipes, and other safety factors comply with the requirements of the "Technical Conditions for Safe Operation of Motor Vehicles." To inspect whether the vehicle has been modified, altered, or reconstructed; whether all records in the vehicle's registration certificate, license plate, and vehicle file match the current condition of the vehicle and if any changes have been made; and whether approval, alteration, or modification procedures have been applied for. To check whether the license plate printed on the vehicle, the vehicle registration certificate, and the enlarged license plate characters are damaged or illegible, and whether they need to be replaced.

What Type of Transmission is Suitable for Aggressive Driving?

CVT transmissions are suitable for aggressive driving. Prolonged driving at low gears with extremely high speeds, high gears with low speeds, sudden acceleration, and hard braking all fall under the category of aggressive driving for CVT transmissions. Extended periods of aggressive driving can lead to engine oil burning, and in severe cases, may cause brake pad temperatures to rise, reduced braking efficiency, cylinder scoring, or even engine seizure. Below are some precautions regarding CVT transmissions: 1. Hill Rollback: When starting on a slope with a CVT, always use the handbrake for assistance. Otherwise, the CVT transmission may slip during power engagement, leading to vehicle rollback. 2. While Driving: Do not shift the gear lever to P, R, or N while the car is in motion. Although the transmission has a self-protection function, it is best to press the brake and wait until the car comes to a complete stop before shifting gears to avoid damaging the transmission.
