The Honda Accord uses the Earth Dreams engine, which is part of Honda's new generation powertrain. The Accord is equipped with Honda's 2.4L low-power version naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 186 horsepower and a peak torque of 243 Nm, paired with a CVT continuously variable transmission, offering smooth stability and strong high-end burst power. Taking the 2021 Honda Accord 260TURBO Luxury Starry Sky Limited Edition as an example, it is equipped with a CVT continuously variable transmission and a 1.5T 194 horsepower L4 engine. Its body structure is a 4-door, 5-seater, with exterior dimensions of 4893mm in length, 1862mm in width, and 1449mm in height.

As an enthusiast who frequently researches automotive technology, I have driven several Honda models and can confirm that the Honda Accord indeed utilizes the Earth Dreams engine. This series is quite common on the tenth-generation Accord, with both the 1.5-liter and 2.0-liter turbocharged versions equipped with Earth Dreams technology. Engineers incorporated advanced VTEC systems and direct fuel injection into the design, optimizing power output and fuel efficiency, making acceleration more agile and reducing highway fuel consumption to around 6 liters. Compared to the older K-series engines, Earth Dreams has made significant improvements in smoothness and noise control, while also supporting start-stop functionality to reduce emissions. Personally, I believe Honda has extended this concept to its hybrid models as well, offering both fuel efficiency and eco-friendliness for daily driving—truly a case of technology benefiting life.

Does a Dual-Clutch Transmission Experience Jerks During Gear Shifts?

Dual-clutch transmissions may exhibit jerking during gear shifts at low speeds, and the detailed reasons are as follows: A dual-clutch transmission has two sets of clutches. While one set of clutches is engaged in one gear, the other set is already prepared for the next gear. When shifting gears, the first set of clutches simply disengages, and the second set engages, which allows for extremely fast gear shifts. However, the issue arises here: the clutches have friction plates, and there is a friction process from disengagement to engagement. If the engagement speed is too fast, it can cause a noticeable impact. If the engagement speed is too slow, prolonged friction between the plates can generate excessive heat, potentially damaging the clutches in severe cases. During low-speed crawling or stop-and-go driving, the clutches repeatedly engage and disengage, keeping the dual-clutch transmission in a semi-engaged state most of the time, which can lead to jerky gear shifts.

What to Do If the Car Gets Scratched?

If the car is only slightly scratched and the scratch is not deep, merely affecting the outermost layer of paint, then the scratched paint can be repaired by waxing. However, if the base coat has been damaged and some of it has come off, you may try to repair it by repainting it yourself. Below is information about the cost of car repainting: 1. Area of the scratch: Car repainting is calculated by "panel." Even if your scratch is small but spans two or three panels, the repainting work and charges will be calculated based on two or three panels. 2. Paint quality: The paint used for repainting varies depending on the car's grade. Generally, domestic paint can cover a large area for just two to three hundred yuan, but for high-end, premium paint, the cost can easily exceed a thousand yuan. 3. Spraying process: Professional painting centers use computer-mixed paint, ensuring a more precise paint mixing ratio. Nowadays, with careful operation, computer color matching can produce paint with a color difference indistinguishable from the original paint by the naked eye of an average person.

How to Repair Rusted-Through Car Doors?

Solutions for rusted car doors are as follows: 1. If rust appears along the lower edge of the door, it should be addressed promptly to prevent the rust from spreading and eventually causing the car's metal sheet to rust through. 2. If the rust is superficial and covers a small area, you can use wet sandpaper to grind off the rust and then apply a layer of rust-proof paint. For minor rust spots, scrape off the rust, clean the area with sandpaper, and then proceed with touch-up painting. 3. If the door is severely rusted with large areas of paint peeling, the rusted paint must be completely removed, followed by filling and smoothing with putty. Once the putty hardens, repainting is necessary. 4. If the car's metal sheet has rusted through, the rusted portion must be cut out and re-welded. If the damage is extensive, repair is not recommended, and replacing the entire panel is advised instead. 5. Car rust should be dealt with promptly, and preventive measures should be taken. After rain, clean the car body immediately. Any scratches or damage on the car's surface should be repaired promptly to prevent oxidation and rust.

Which Side is the Steering Wheel on American Cars?

In the United States, the steering wheel is on the left side. The steering wheel position in the U.S. is exactly the same as in our country, which is related to road traffic regulations. The U.S., along with over a hundred other countries in the continental faction, drives on the right side of the road. For driving convenience (such as overtaking and meeting other vehicles), the steering wheel is placed on the left. On the other hand, dozens of countries in the island faction led by the U.K. drive on the left side, with the steering wheel on the right. Below is some related information about American cars: 1. Americans are quite skilled at manufacturing cars with very large bodies that offer excellent comfort for passengers. 2. High-performance cars in the U.S. generally prefer to use large-displacement V8 naturally aspirated or supercharged engines. 3. The U.S. also has drag racing events, where many classic American cars can be seen. 4. The cornering performance of American cars is not particularly outstanding. Due to the wide and straight highways in the U.S., American cars perform very well in terms of comfort during long-distance high-speed cruising, but their cornering ability is relatively poor.

Is an Idle Speed of 800 to 900 RPM Normal for the New Jetta?

An idle speed of 800 to 900 RPM is not normal for the new Jetta. The typical idle speed for the Volkswagen New Jetta is around 700-800 RPM. Introduction to Car Idle Speed: Car idle speed refers to a working condition. When the engine runs without load, it is called idling, meaning the car is in neutral gear. The engine speed during idling is referred to as the idle speed. The idle speed can be adjusted by modifying the throttle opening size, among other methods. Idling essentially means the engine is "running without doing work." Introduction to Car Idle State: When the engine is running, if the accelerator pedal is fully released, the engine enters the idle state. When adjusting the idle speed, the RPM should not fluctuate abruptly, as this can cause premature wear to the engine. It is best to have the idle speed adjusted at an automotive repair facility. When the car is parked and the engine is started, the minimum stable engine speed is called the parking idle speed (the process of transitioning from a cold engine idle state to the idle state at normal operating temperature is called warm-up or heating).
