I recently researched the GL8 and found it indeed has a hybrid version, the GL8 Landun Plug-in Hybrid launched this year. This model combines a 1.5T engine with an electric motor, offering over 100 km of pure electric range, which is more than enough for daily commutes. I test drove it last week and was most impressed by how quiet it is - almost no engine noise at startup, and very smooth acceleration. The interior space is truly remarkable, with aviation-style seats featuring massage and heating functions, making family trips extremely comfortable. For long-distance driving, the hybrid version has a combined fuel consumption of only about 6L/100km, saving half the fuel cost compared to the older pure gasoline models. Currently, dealerships are offering exemption from purchase tax, making it quite a good deal overall.

I work in automotive media, and the GL8 plug-in hybrid version has already arrived in dealerships this year. This hybrid system combines a 1.5T engine with an electric motor, achieving a fuel consumption of less than 6 liters per 100 kilometers and a full electric-plus-fuel range exceeding 1,000 kilometers. Key upgrades are evident, such as a 50-watt wireless charger in the front row, a rear-row folding table with wireless charging, and six charging ports throughout the vehicle. Sound insulation features double-layer glass and ANC active noise cancellation, making highway driving so quiet you can hear your own breathing. The second-row seats come with eight-point massage and leg rests, along with ventilation and heating, offering significantly more comfort than MPVs in the same price range.

For young dads eyeing MPVs, the new GL8 plug-in hybrid is truly appealing. It features an exclusive blue-and-white color scheme and illuminated logo, with a VCS intelligent cockpit system inside and a sleek 30-inch integrated screen. The powertrain delivers quick response, offering strong acceleration from the electric motor with minimal jerkiness when the engine kicks in. Fast charging reaches 80% in just half an hour, making daily electric use extremely cost-effective. Safety-wise, it comes standard with side airbags and radar, plus responsive autonomous emergency braking. Starting at over 300,000 yuan, it saves more than 20,000 yuan with the purchase tax exemption.

Does Tesla Have Eavesdropping Capability?

Tesla does not possess eavesdropping capability. Below is relevant information about Tesla's in-car camera: Responsibilities: Generally, in-car cameras primarily serve two functions. Firstly, they perform facial recognition to verify the driver's identity, with more advanced versions also matching driver preferences accordingly - essentially functioning as a sophisticated version of smartphone Face-ID. The second main function is serving as part of the driving assistance system, where the in-car camera detects driver drowsiness and triggers an alert. Such "fatigue monitoring" features are widely adopted among traditional automotive brands as well. Purpose: According to OTA information, Tesla's in-car camera serves dual purposes - it supplements blind spot images for the vehicle while automatically recording images and short clips prior to collisions. On one hand, it monitors driver attention during Autopilot operation; on the other hand, it supervises passengers after Tesla's car-sharing implementation to prevent malicious vehicle damage.

Who is Tesla's Battery Supplier in China?

Tesla's battery supplier in China is Panasonic. Below is relevant information about Tesla batteries: Battery Model: Tesla uses the 18650 battery produced by Panasonic. After the official production of Model 3, the new 21700 battery replaced the 18650 as the new cell. The 21700 battery is a ternary lithium battery with a cathode material of lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide (NCA). This cylindrical ternary battery currently offers the highest energy density among power battery solutions. Compared to prismatic batteries, although this type of battery has high energy density, its stability is relatively poor, requiring excellent BMS (Battery Management System) support. Battery Energy Density: Under current conditions, the energy density of the 21700 battery system is around 300Wh/kg, which is approximately 20% higher than the 250Wh/kg of the original 18650 battery system. Additionally, according to Panasonic's test data for single lithium-ion power batteries, the volumetric energy density of the 21700 battery is significantly higher than that of the 18650 battery cell. The improvement in energy density of a single battery cell far exceeds the 20% increase observed after grouping.

What do the three wires of the throttle handle represent?

The throttle handle has three wires: one signal wire and two power wires (+5V positive and negative). The three wires are red, black, and green. If the red and green wires are short-circuited, the vehicle will move directly. Alternatively, if the black wire among the three wires comes off while the other two remain connected, the vehicle will also move directly. However, some controllers are designed to prevent runaway and will only operate when there is resistance. The principle of the electric vehicle throttle handle is based on the Hall throttle handle principle: Inside the throttle handle, there is a linear Hall sensor that detects the magnitude of the magnetic field. The three wires are connected to the three pins of the Hall sensor, typically colored red, black, and green, representing the positive, negative, and signal terminals, respectively. The throttle handle also contains a magnet. When the throttle handle is turned, the magnet rotates accordingly. The Hall sensor detects the magnetic signal and sends a signal to the controller, thereby controlling the motor speed. If the throttle handle wires are disconnected and the positive and signal wires are short-circuited, it is equivalent to the motor running at maximum speed, causing it to spin continuously. Disconnecting the wires will stop the motor.
