Plug-in hybrids can get green license plates. Green license plates are new energy vehicle license plates, and both pure electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles can generally use green new energy license plates. Plug-in hybrid vehicles are different from ordinary hybrid vehicles. Ordinary hybrid vehicles cannot use an external power source to charge the vehicle's battery, and their range in pure electric mode is relatively low. Plug-in hybrid vehicles have a significantly larger battery, allowing them to be charged via an external power source, and they offer a longer range in pure electric mode. Plug-in hybrid vehicles consume much less fuel than pure gasoline vehicles and also have a longer range compared to most pure electric vehicles.

Hey, remember I switched to a plug-in hybrid last year? So convenient! It definitely qualifies for a green license plate—I’ve experienced it firsthand. I bought a BYD model, and the registration process was straightforward: just fill out the new energy vehicle registration form at the DMV, provide the vehicle license and purchase invoice, and the staff immediately recognized it as a plug-in hybrid and issued the green plate without hesitation. One thing to note: national regulations require a minimum pure-electric range of at least 50 km, so some older models might not qualify. I highly recommend plug-in hybrids—they offer the eco-friendly benefits of an EV without the range anxiety of a pure electric car. Daily commutes can be powered by electricity, while long trips rely on gas, saving a ton on fuel costs. Plus, during peak hours, the green plate lets you bypass the license lottery and drive straight into the city—so satisfying!

What does it mean when the exhaust pipe sputters and sprays water at idle?

When the exhaust pipe sputters and sprays water at idle, it indicates that the gasoline is burning very well and completely in the engine. The byproducts of complete gasoline combustion are carbon dioxide and water. Due to the high temperature inside the engine, the water is initially expelled as steam. When this steam reaches the cooler tail section of the exhaust pipe and encounters the outside cold air, it condenses into liquid water and flows out of the exhaust pipe. However, if white gas is emitted from the exhaust pipe during summer when outdoor temperatures are high, it is abnormal and indicates that the engine is burning coolant. Idle is an operating condition of a car where the engine runs in neutral gear. The engine speed during idle is called the idle speed, which can be adjusted by modifying the throttle opening size.

Is it necessary to shift to N gear with automatic hold?

With automatic hold, there is no need to shift to N gear. Automatic hold is an automatic braking function. Once activated, when waiting at traffic lights, there is no need to pull the handbrake or electronic handbrake, and naturally, there is no need to change gears, simplifying the operation. You can stay in D gear all the time. When waiting at a traffic light, after the car comes to a complete stop and the indicator light on the dashboard lights up, it means the automatic braking action is completed, and you can release your right foot from the brake pedal. When the green light turns on, pressing the accelerator pedal will cancel the automatic hold function, but there might be a slight jerk. The hold function is very convenient and greatly simplifies operation in urban traffic conditions, but there might be a slight lurch when starting to accelerate, so it's advisable to maintain enough distance from the car in front. For novice drivers, it's better to shift to N gear and get used to the new car for a while before using this function to avoid traffic accidents.

How to Deal with Oil Film After Wiper Blade Wiping?

Solutions for oil film after wiper blade wiping: 1. Use baking soda to wipe it off; 2. Soak a soft cloth with high-proof liquor or alcohol and wipe the vehicle's front windshield; 3. Wipe the windshield with hot water, as oil stains have reduced surface adhesion in high-temperature environments. The wiper blade, also known as a windscreen wiper, water wiper, or windshield wiper, is a device used to remove raindrops and dust attached to the vehicle's windshield, improving the driver's visibility and increasing driving safety. The power source of the wiper blade comes from an electric motor, which is the core of the entire wiper system. The wiper motor uses a DC permanent magnet motor, usually integrated with the worm gear mechanical part. The worm gear mechanism serves to reduce speed and increase torque, and its output shaft drives a four-bar linkage mechanism, converting continuous rotational motion into left-right oscillating motion.

What engine is used in the Mercedes-AMG ONE?

The engine of the Mercedes-AMG ONE is handcrafted at the Affalterbach engine plant in Germany and is an imported engine. The Mercedes-AMG ONE is equipped with a 1.6T V6 turbocharged engine derived from Formula 1 racing, delivering a maximum torque of 500Nm and a maximum power output of 270KW. For daily maintenance of the Mercedes-AMG ONE engine, the following methods can be employed: Use lubricating oil of the appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional equipment of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, choose CB--CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's specified requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will deteriorate over time. After a certain mileage, its performance degrades, leading to various engine issues. To prevent malfunctions, change the oil periodically based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through, it may rupture the filter element or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication areas, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls. These mix with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. Small amounts remain suspended in the oil, while larger amounts precipitate, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Periodically use a radiator cleaner to flush the radiator. Removing rust and scale deposits not only ensures proper engine operation but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

Where is the stamped engine number of the Fengjun 7 located?

The stamped engine number of the Fengjun 7 is located on the cylinder block, beneath the cylinder head. In addition to the above method, the engine number can also be checked through the following four ways: The vehicle's driving license contains the engine number, usually found on the second-to-last line; The motor vehicle registration certificate will list the engine number; The purchase invoice will include the engine number; The vehicle purchase tax payment certificate will also specify the engine number. It's important to note that the engine number is not the same as the engine model. The engine model refers to the specifications and size of the engine within the manufacturer's lineup, and multiple engines can share the same model. On the other hand, the engine number is the production serial number of the engine, with each engine having a unique number that cannot be duplicated. The engine number consists of four parts, each representing different information. The first part includes the product series code, generation symbol, and regional or enterprise code, selected by the manufacturer as needed but must be approved and recorded by the industry standard authority. The middle part comprises symbols for the number of cylinders, cylinder arrangement, stroke, and cylinder diameter. The latter part includes symbols for structural features and usage characteristics. The final part is a distinguishing symbol, used by the manufacturer to indicate modifications or improvements within the same series.
