Changan Benben New Energy e-star has airbags. Airbag system: It is a passive safety coefficient (see vehicle safety coefficient) protection system. When used in conjunction with seat belts, it can provide effective collision protection for passengers. In the event of a car collision, the airbag can reduce head injury rate by 25% and facial injury rate by approximately 80%. Precautions for proper use of airbags: Airbags must be used together with seat belts. If the seat belt is not fastened properly, even with an airbag, serious injuries or even death may occur during a collision; Maintain an appropriate distance from the airbag while riding; Do not place objects in front of, above, or near the airbag, as these items may obstruct the airbag's inflation or be ejected during an emergency, causing greater danger; To ensure that the airbag truly serves its safety purpose, drivers and passengers must develop good driving and riding habits, maintaining a certain distance between the chest and the steering wheel.

I love driving and pay special attention to the details of new energy vehicles. The Changan BenBen EV e-star comes standard with a driver's airbag, which automatically deploys during a collision to protect the driver. In higher trim levels, it may also include a passenger airbag. Airbags are not just decorations—they cushion the impact in accidents, reducing the risk of injuries or fatalities. As a compact electric vehicle, the BenBen e-star is affordable, but don't underestimate its safety features—many owners have reported that the airbags played a crucial role in accidents. When buying a car, it's advisable to confirm the specific version, as the base model has fewer airbags, and retrofitting them is unsafe. It's best to check the manual at a 4S store. After years of driving, I believe safety equipment is far more practical than flashy features.

Airbags are fundamental safety features in vehicles. For budget-friendly electric models like the Changan BenBen E-Star, most configurations include a driver-side airbag, while the passenger-side airbag may only come with higher trim levels. The airbag system relies on sensors to trigger rapid inflation during a collision, providing crucial head support. With extensive experience driving electric vehicles, I find the BenBen E-Star's lightweight design makes airbags even more critical. When choosing a car, never compromise on safety—airbags can save lives, even in low-risk urban driving. If the airbag warning light illuminates or malfunctions, seek immediate repairs. Overall, this model meets basic safety requirements, but buyers should always verify the specifications themselves.

From a technical perspective, the airbag configuration of the Changan Benben New Energy e-star varies by trim: the base model comes with a single driver-side airbag, while the top trim may add a passenger-side one. The airbags rely on in-vehicle sensors and ECU control, featuring a compact design that doesn't compromise interior space. As an affordable EV, its airbag protection suffices for urban commuting. We recommend test-driving or checking official specs before purchase rather than relying on default assumptions. Having worked extensively with this model, I've found its airbags reliable - though regular maintenance is advised to prevent dust accumulation and blockage.

Where to Add Windshield Washer Fluid in Baojun 510?

Facing the engine compartment, open the engine hood. In the lower right corner of the engine compartment, there is a white cap. This is where you add the windshield washer fluid. Open the white cap and pour in the washer fluid. You can add up to approximately 1.5 liters of washer fluid at a time. Windshield washer fluids are mainly divided into three types: 1. Summer-specific windshield washer fluid: This type of fluid contains added insect-removing agents in its original composition, allowing it to quickly remove insect residues from the windshield. 2. Standard winter windshield washer fluid: Also known as anti-freeze windshield washer fluid. This type generally ensures that it won't freeze or damage car components even when the external temperature drops below -20°C. 3. Special anti-freeze windshield washer fluid: This type can remain unfrozen even at -40°C, making it suitable for use in the extremely cold regions of northern China.

Why Can't an EFI Motorcycle Accelerate Properly?

There could be several reasons why an EFI motorcycle fails to accelerate properly: 1. The fuel pump is not functioning correctly. 2. There is no pressure in the fuel line. 3. The ECU connectors are loose. 4. The cylinder temperature sensor is damaged. 5. The oxygen sensor is damaged. Here is some additional relevant information: 1. Deposits can clog the needle valve and valve holes of the fuel injector, affecting the performance of the precision components in the electronic fuel injection system and leading to reduced power output. 2. Deposits can form carbon buildup on the intake valves, causing them to not seal properly. This results in difficulty starting the motorcycle, unstable engine idling, increased fuel consumption accompanied by excessive exhaust emissions, and can also shorten the lifespan of the three-way catalytic converter.

How to Solve the Issue of Water Dripping from Diesel Engine Exhaust Pipe?

Water dripping from the diesel engine exhaust pipe does not require any treatment, as it is a normal phenomenon indicating that the engine is functioning properly with complete combustion and effective atomization. Every vehicle is equipped with a small opening at the bottom of each exhaust pipe to facilitate drainage under normal conditions or special circumstances like wading through water. The conditions for water dripping from the diesel engine exhaust pipe are: 1. The air-fuel mixture ratio must meet the normal value. For engines with electronic fuel injection or carburetors, a normal air-fuel mixture ratio signifies that the vehicle's fuel supply system is functioning correctly, and fuel consumption will remain within the normal range; 2. The engine cylinder pressure must be normal, meaning there is no significant wear inside the engine cylinder block, and components such as cylinder liners and sealing rings are intact; 3. The exhaust temperature must be normal. Most of the heat generated by the engine stays within the cylinder, with only a small portion reaching the exhaust pipe. Under these conditions, the engine's power output is relatively stable. If the exhaust pipe temperature is too high, the water vapor will evaporate.
