Does the Geely Panda have a catalytic converter?

[DiCollin]

Geely Panda is equipped with a catalytic converter, which is located in the first drum section of the vehicle's exhaust manifold, resembling the shape of a canteen. Composition of the catalytic converter: The catalytic converter generally consists of four parts: the shell, damping layer, substrate, and catalyst coating. Shell: Made of stainless steel to prevent oxidation scale from falling off, which could clog the substrate. Damping layer: Composed of padding or wire mesh, it serves to seal, insulate, and secure the substrate. To protect the substrate from damage due to vibration, thermal deformation, etc., the padding is made of expanded mica and aluminum silicate fibers, bonded together with adhesive. Substrate: Made of honeycomb ceramic material, though many also use metal (including stainless steel) materials. Catalyst: Composed of precious metals such as platinum, rhodium, and palladium, sprayed onto the substrate to form the purifying agent. Lifespan of the catalytic converter: The lifespan of a catalytic converter is typically between 80,000 to 100,000 kilometers. The exact lifespan depends on the vehicle's usage conditions, and it is also related to the quality of fuel used and the driving environment.
