Subject Three allows the use of first gear for a U-turn, which is one of the test items in Subject Three. It requires the examinee to control the speed, correctly use the gears, and choose an appropriate location for the U-turn. In the Subject Three test, there are no specific requirements for the gear selection. Generally, you can choose to use first or second gear for the U-turn. First gear is the safest option, but you can also use second gear for the U-turn if safety is ensured. The specific operation method for a U-turn in Subject Three is as follows: 1. When the voice prompt announces "Please make a U-turn ahead," the examinee should turn on the left turn signal, observe the surroundings, safely yield to oncoming vehicles, and must use a gear below second gear for the U-turn, reducing the vehicle speed to below 20 kilometers per hour. 2. Pay attention to yielding to vehicles coming from both directions, and do not affect the normal driving of other vehicles. Before making the U-turn, you can stop and wait for the right moment to complete the U-turn in one go, avoiding improper operation or stopping midway. If there is a crosswalk during the U-turn, the vehicle must pass the crosswalk before making the U-turn. Do not make the U-turn on the crosswalk, and do not stop and wait on the crosswalk.

Due to its relatively low positioning and compact body size design, this car cannot be equipped with a four-wheel drive system. Changan CS35 is the first SUV independently developed by Changan Automobile, featuring a sporty, sleek, fashionable, and technologically advanced overall design. Leading powertrain technology and the new-generation Aisin SsII automatic transmission provide the CS35 with excellent handling. The complete TRW braking system from the USA, compatible with ABS and EBD, along with four-wheel disc brakes, ensures outstanding safety performance. The rich and practical configurations surpassing those of vehicles in the same class make the CS35 more comfortable and convenient to drive and ride in.

What is the fuel consumption of the Buick G8?

The fuel consumption of the Buick G8 is 7.8L-12.2L. Here are some details about car fuel consumption: 1. Constant-speed fuel consumption: This refers to the fuel economy indicator when a car is driving at a constant speed on a good road surface. Since constant-speed driving is a basic operating condition for cars on highways, and this type of fuel consumption is easy to measure, it is widely adopted. 2. Road cycle fuel consumption: This is the fuel economy indicator measured when a car drives in repeated cycles according to specified speed and time regulations on the road, also known as multi-condition road cycle fuel consumption. The speed and time regulations specify various driving conditions included in each cycle, as well as the shifting moments, braking and stopping times, driving speed, acceleration, and braking deceleration values for each cycle.

What Are the Advantages of Range-Extended Electric Vehicles?

Range-extended electric vehicles have the following advantages: 1. High starting torque, can be used as a pure electric vehicle, and can be charged only without refueling when charging is convenient; 2. No need for a transmission, as the engine generates electricity, avoiding the need for towing in areas where charging is inconvenient, thus addressing the issue of insufficient infrastructure; 3. Through control system optimization, the engine can always operate at an appropriate speed, resulting in relatively low fuel consumption even in urban traffic congestion when charging is inconvenient, and engine noise can also be minimized. A range-extended electric vehicle is a type of electric vehicle that can achieve all its power performance in pure electric mode. When the on-board rechargeable energy storage system cannot meet the range requirements, the on-board auxiliary power supply device is activated to provide energy to the power system to extend the range, and this auxiliary power supply device has no mechanical connection such as a driveshaft or belt with the drive system.

What does a narrow road U-turn mean?

Narrow road U-turn refers to making a U-turn on narrow roads such as alleys or rural areas during actual driving. The key to reducing the number of maneuvers is accurately judging that the wheels are close to the roadside without driving off the road when moving forward and backward on a narrow road. For general small vehicles, a U-turn can be completed with two forward moves and one backward move on a two-lane road; for narrower roads, three forward moves and two backward moves, or even more maneuvers may be required. Evaluation criteria: 1. Failing to complete the U-turn within three forward and two backward moves results in disqualification; 2. Driving over the road edge line results in disqualification; 3. Stopping midway results in disqualification; 4. Exceeding 2 minutes in operation results in disqualification; 5. Not using the seat belt as required results in disqualification; 6. Opening the car door during the test results in disqualification; 7. Causing the engine to stall once due to improper operation deducts 10 points.

What should be paid attention to when turning left?

In actual driving, the following points should be noted when turning left: 1. Check traffic signs in advance: Observe whether there are signs prohibiting left turns. If allowed, turn on the left turn signal in advance. 2. Check the rearview mirror promptly: Confirm that the speed of the following vehicle is not higher than yours and the distance is sufficient (at least both headlights should be visible), merge into the left turn lane in advance, and avoid crossing solid lines. 3. When stopping at a red light, park the vehicle slightly farther from the stop line: Parking slightly farther will make it easier to have enough straight driving time to accelerate from first gear to second gear after starting. (Shifting gears during straight driving is easier than during turns). 4. Pay attention to observing the traffic conditions outside the vehicle: The merging of traffic will affect the timing judgment of the left turn, avoiding vehicle collisions.
