Aston Martin is not 4WD but rear-wheel drive. Below is an introduction to the drive systems: Two-wheel drive vehicles: Two-wheel drive vehicles typically use the rear wheels (or front wheels) as the driving wheels, with the front wheels (or rear wheels) as the driven wheels, and the driving and driven wheels remain fixed. Common two-wheel drive configurations include front-engine front-wheel drive, front-engine rear-wheel drive, and rear-engine rear-wheel drive. Four-wheel drive vehicles: Four-wheel drive vehicles usually refer to all four wheels providing power simultaneously. Common four-wheel drive systems include full-time 4WD, part-time 4WD, and on-demand 4WD. Compared to two-wheel drive vehicles, four-wheel drive vehicles offer stronger power performance and are easier to get out of muddy terrain.

As a track enthusiast, I'm deeply impressed by Aston Martin's all-wheel-drive system. The DBX, as the brand's first AWD model, broke tradition with its intelligent system that instantly distributes power, remaining rock-solid on icy surfaces. The later V8 Vantage also introduced an AWD version with ultra-precise power distribution during cornering. However, classic models like the DBS Superleggera remain steadfastly rear-wheel-drive, preserving that tail-happy driving thrill that AWD can't replicate. The upcoming hybrid Valhalla will feature e-AWD, with electric motors responding faster than mechanical systems. When it comes to Aston Martins, model generations matter – post-2019 saw significantly more AWD options, though most V12-powered flagships still cater to rear-drive purists.

Having studied supercar drivetrains for years, Aston Martin's four-wheel-drive layout is quite intriguing. They specifically developed a full-time 4WD system with a central transfer case for the DBX, featuring standard front and rear differentials that can lock 50% of torque on unpaved roads. Interestingly, their sports car series' 4WD tuning leans toward rear-drive characteristics—the DB11 4WD version delivers 90% power to the rear axle during daily driving, switching to 4WD in just 350 milliseconds when needed. However, the V12 engine's longitudinal layout makes 4WD integration challenging, hence the current DBS remains rear-wheel drive. Last year's test of the DBX707 revealed its torque vectoring distribution is even more aggressive than Porsche's Turbo models.

What brand are the original tires on the Tucson?

The Tucson is equipped with Bridgestone tires, with a tire size of 225/55/R18. Bridgestone Corporation (English: Bridgestone Corporation) was established in 1931 by Shojiro Ishibashi in Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan as a tire manufacturing plant. In the 2018 Fortune Global 500 rankings, it was placed at 365th. The company's English name is derived from the literal translation of the founder's surname, Ishibashi. Bridgestone is the largest tire manufacturer in Japan and also the largest tire manufacturer in the world. In Chinese, Bridgestone was once referred to as the Ishibashi brand in earlier years, but the company has since uniformly adopted the transliteration Bridgestone. For the Tucson's tires in daily use, the following points should be noted: Regularly check the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to wear from driving, the tread grooves on the tires gradually become shallower. If the tread wears out, the tire loses its drainage and anti-slip functions, significantly reducing the car's performance. Small cracks may seem minor but can lead to blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, it's important to promptly remove pebbles lodged in the grooves. Park on level ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. The car should not be parked near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that can deteriorate rubber. After parking, the driver should avoid turning the steering wheel, as this action accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool the tires. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires can overheat, and the pressure may increase. In such cases, stop to allow the tires to cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool the tires, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Try to minimize frequent use of brakes and sudden stops to prevent accelerated tread wear caused by dragging between the tires and the ground.

What does Land Rover's second-generation Terrain Response mean?

Land Rover's second-generation Terrain Response is the second-generation All-Terrain Progress Control system. It uses pre-set programs to control parameters such as the engine, transmission, gear shifting, four-wheel-drive system, and dynamic control system, optimizing them for specific road conditions (snow, ruts, sand, rocks) to make it easier for drivers to navigate these terrains. Additional information: The difference between Land Rover's first-generation and second-generation Terrain Response: The key difference is that the second-generation system can automatically identify terrain and utilize multiple subsystems to achieve the optimal vehicle performance for that terrain. In contrast, the first-generation system requires the driver to manually identify the terrain and turn the dial to the corresponding setting before the subsystems activate. Essentially, the second-generation system is fully automatic, while the first-generation is semi-automatic.

What Causes the Auto Start-Stop System to Fail?

The proper functioning of the engine auto start-stop system is related to factors such as battery charge level, air conditioning set temperature, engine coolant temperature, and whether the seatbelt is fastened. When the battery charge is too low, the engine control unit will automatically disable the start-stop function. Below is relevant information about the auto start-stop system: 1. The auto start-stop system allows the engine to temporarily shut off when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop or stops at a traffic light. When ready to drive again, the engine restarts without the need to operate the ignition switch. 2. For the auto start-stop system to work normally, certain conditions must be met, such as the driver wearing the seatbelt, the driver's door being closed, the gear lever of manual transmission vehicles being in neutral position, and the clutch being operated. If these conditions are satisfied, the start-stop system automatically activates the engine. Therefore, start-stop system failure isn't necessarily due to the system itself; it could be caused by unmet conditions or faults in other systems.

What lights should be turned on in time when driving in foggy weather?

When driving in foggy weather, you should turn on the fog lights, headlights, marker lights, and rear position lights. When driving close to the vehicle in front in the same direction, you should not use the high beam. The function of fog lights: Fog lights are light signals used in rainy or foggy weather. Their main feature is strong penetration in fog, making it easier for vehicles or pedestrians to notice them early in low visibility conditions, thereby effectively preventing accidents. However, it should be noted that fog lights cannot be used as daily lighting. Fog lights can also become quite glaring in good visibility conditions, which may disturb or even harm the eyes of other drivers, potentially leading to accidents. Types of fog lights: Fog lights include two types: front fog lights and rear fog lights. Front fog lights are generally bright white, with three diagonal lines on the left crossed by a curved line and a semi-elliptical shape on the right. Rear fog lights are red, with a semi-elliptical shape on the left and three horizontal lines on the right crossed by a curved line.

How many kilometers should the spark plugs be replaced for the ninth-generation Accord?

The spark plugs of the ninth-generation Accord should be replaced every 40,000 kilometers. Methods to determine if the spark plugs are damaged: Remove the spark plugs and observe them. Judge the condition of the spark plugs based on their appearance and color. Normal spark plugs have a skirt and electrodes that appear gray-white, gray-yellow, or light brown. A properly functioning spark plug has a skirt that is reddish-brown, with an electrode gap between 0.8-0.9mm and no signs of electrode burning. If the spark plugs are oily or have deposits but are not damaged, they can continue to be used after cleaning off the oil and deposits. If the spark plugs are severely damaged, with signs such as blistering at the top, black streaks, cracks, or melted electrodes, the cause of the damage should be identified. After troubleshooting, replace the spark plugs with new ones. Additionally, if the spark plugs appear black as if smoked, it indicates that the wrong heat range was selected or that the air-fuel mixture is too rich, or that engine oil is leaking into the combustion chamber.
