Toyota Land Cruiser has ceased sales in the domestic market, but it is still available for purchase—just not in the Chinese market, as only imported vehicles can be bought. Reasons for the Land Cruiser's discontinuation: 1. High production costs: The Land Cruiser is a high-performance off-road vehicle launched by Toyota. This model has been discontinued in the Chinese market because it requires a dedicated production line, resulting in high costs that drive up the selling price, placing it at a disadvantage among vehicles in the same class. Additionally, the squeeze from parallel imports has led to sluggish sales of the Land Cruiser, prompting its discontinuation in the domestic market. 2. Road limitations: As a large off-road vehicle, the Land Cruiser is bulky and primarily suited for off-road use, making it highly unsuitable for urban roads. Driving in urban areas is inconvenient due to its large turning radius, making both turning and parking extremely difficult. Since the model has been discontinued in the Chinese market, most Land Cruisers seen on the market are imported versions, with the Middle Eastern version being the most common. Its durability, reliability, and off-road capabilities have made this vehicle a world-class SUV.

What are the techniques for throttle blipping when shifting gears in heavy trucks?

The specific techniques for throttle blipping when shifting gears in heavy trucks are as follows: 1. Heavy load uphill: When the engine speed cannot reach the 4th gear speed while going uphill, downshift to 3rd gear, and so on. Downshift to the appropriate speed, then quickly depress the clutch to downshift while stepping on the accelerator. 2. Clutch control: Large trucks generally use double-clutching. While upshifting may not require double-clutching, downshifting must use double-clutching. When downshifting, first depress the clutch to shift from 3rd gear to neutral, then partially release the clutch (you can release it halfway), and depress it again before shifting to 2nd gear. The movements must be quick.

What is the gear shift lever?

The lever used for shifting gears in a car is called the gear shift lever or control lever. It is used in the car's transmission and its main function is to facilitate gear shifting. The gear shift lever is a rod-like component, commonly categorized into 1-2 gear shift levers, 3-4 gear shift levers, and five-speed gear shift levers. The five-speed gear shift lever usually integrates the reverse gear function. The gear shift lever is equipped with shift forks and shift shaft forks to achieve its functional combination. Below is more related information: Gear shift lever design types: 1. Straight-line gear shift lever: The straight-line type arranges the gear positions in a top-to-bottom sequence. The design of the straight-line gear shift lever is relatively simple; pressing the locking mechanism on the left or front end of the lever allows for gear switching. 2. Snake-shaped gear shift lever: This type of gear shift lever is more commonly found in Japanese cars. Since it lacks a locking device, to avoid the risk of incorrect gear shifting, the gear positions are designed in a zigzag pattern, resembling a snake winding on the surface, hence the name "snake-shaped." The advantage of this type of gear shift lever is safety. 3. Electronic gear shift lever: Unlike ordinary mechanical gear shift levers, it directly controls the transmission gear positions through simulated electronic signal output. The benefits include convenient operation—pushing up or down once can engage the corresponding gear—and because the entire process is computer-controlled, it also prevents damage to the transmission caused by incorrect gear shifting.

How Long Does It Take to Get a Driver's License in Guangzhou?

In Guangzhou, compared to other domestic cities, the process of obtaining a driver's license takes a relatively long time. While it used to take an average of over a year to get the license between 2014 and 2017, it now generally takes about a year. Due to various factors, the time required to obtain a license varies among different driving schools, ranging from 5 to 12 months. Below is more detailed information on the time required for each subject: 1. Subject 1 takes about 1.5 months: After registration, it takes 3-5 days to prepare and submit all the student's materials for review, which typically takes 20-30 days to process. Once approved, the student is notified to collect the training card and attend in-person classes. After completing the classes, the student is promptly scheduled for the written exam, which takes about 10-15 days. Therefore, Subject 1 generally takes around 1.5 months. 2. Subject 2 takes about 2 months: This is divided into basic driving practice and pre-exam practice. The basic practice must first complete the hours required by the vehicle management office before the exam can be scheduled. Normally, it takes about 1 month to complete the basic practice and clock in the required hours, and another month to successfully schedule and take the Subject 2 exam, totaling about 2 months. 3. Subjects 3 and 4 take about 2 months: Since the second half of 2018, Guangzhou has implemented a combined exam for Subjects 3 and 4, allowing students to take the Subject 4 (civilized driving) exam on the same day after passing Subject 3. From completing Subject 2 to taking Subject 3, it normally takes about 2 months. As long as the student's priority is high enough, the driving school will promptly assist in scheduling the exams. Each subject is expedited as much as possible within the system's framework.
