The new City is equipped with both front and rear anti-collision steel beams. In the event of a collision, the impact energy can be absorbed by the front part of the body (engine compartment area), and the force received on all collision parts is transmitted to the frame structure. Additional information: 1. The stylish design of the new City: The City is a small, fashionable compact car launched by GAC Honda. It features a stylish and simple exterior design with smooth and natural lines, making it suitable for family use. The City's appearance caters to the modern young generation's preference for a fashionable and progressive style. The bold front face design effectively compensates for the relatively small body size, making the City an ideal choice for young individuals seeking individuality. Its nimble handling also provides a thrilling driving experience for those who enjoy sporty performance. 2. The cost of owning the new City: Honda vehicles are renowned for their fuel efficiency, and with the longest warranty mileage in its class, the City is particularly suitable for long-distance driving in areas with good road conditions. For urban use, the cost of ownership is also economical, without imposing excessive financial burdens.

As a car owner with over a decade of driving experience, I remember that some Honda City models in the market, especially the economy versions, might have omitted the rear crash bar. This sounds a bit alarming because the crash bar helps protect the car's structure in low-speed collisions, preventing trunk deformation. When I bought my car, I specifically asked the salesperson, and they said some base models didn't include it to cut costs. If you're concerned, you can check it yourself: open the trunk, pull back the inner lining, and see if there's a metal beam at the back. With car safety standards getting stricter, I believe all models should come standard with this feature to reduce repair costs and injuries in accidents. When choosing a car, it's best to compare safety features thoroughly—don't just go for the cheapest option and overlook protection. After all, family safety comes first when you're out on the road.

Every time I take my kids out in the car, I check the vehicle's safety details, so I have strong feelings about the rear anti-collision beam issue with the new City. Some entry-level versions of this car may indeed lack a rear anti-collision beam, as the manufacturer simplified it to save costs. This has a significant impact in rear-end collisions—without this beam, even a minor impact can crush the rear of the car, increasing repair difficulty and safety risks. I recommend checking the specific model's configuration sheet or user reviews online before buying, or simply visiting a 4S dealership to inspect it firsthand. Safety is not something to take lightly. During regular maintenance, you can also ask the mechanic to check it for you. While automotive technology has advanced, having basic protection is essential for peace of mind on the road. Protecting yourself starts with choosing the right car.

I'm a car enthusiast and keep up with the latest updates on various models. The rear anti-collision beam on the Honda New City depends on the model and year, with some lower-priced versions possibly not equipped with this feature. This isn't really a secret, as many budget models handle it this way to reduce costs. Without it, the rear end deforms more quickly in a rear-end collision, affecting overall safety, but this can be improved by retrofitting. I think owners can have professionals check it during regular maintenance or opt for higher trim levels from an insurance perspective. Safety is not something to skimp on; spending a bit more time understanding the details is worth it.

How Many More Years Can a Car with 150,000 Kilometers Be Driven?

According to the latest national regulations on vehicle retirement, regular family-use 5-seat sedans and 7-seat SUVs, as long as they are non-commercial private vehicles, have no usage time limit. However, when the mileage reaches 600,000 kilometers, the state will guide the vehicle to be retired. For vehicles older than 15 years, an inspection is required every 6 months, and if the inspection is not passed, the vehicle will be forcibly retired. 1. Retirement: Refers to the phenomenon where a car can no longer be used or is deemed unqualified due to excessive use time or too many problems, ultimately being scrapped. 2. Precautions: It is necessary to frequently replace some easily worn parts and replenish energy for the car. For example, brake pads that wear out after about two years of use should be replaced promptly. Or the fuel pump, even if not replaced, must be cleaned after more than two years of use. Additionally, if the car becomes unstable, it may be due to issues with the shock absorbers in the suspension system. If not repaired or replaced in time, it can be dangerous during high-speed driving or rainy days.

What does 'set' mean on a car display?

When 'set' appears on a car display, it refers to the speed setting switch, which is the cruise speed control indicator. To set the cruise speed, the driver accelerates the vehicle to the desired speed and presses the SET button. Typically, the vehicle speed must exceed 30 miles per hour for this function to work. When using cruise control, pressing the brake pedal will deactivate the cruise speed control. The 'set' function in a car also serves to confirm the standard tire pressure. After adjusting the tire pressure of all four tires to the recommended level, the driver should press and hold the 'set' button for three seconds while observing the speedometer. A warning symbol (an exclamation mark inside parentheses) will appear, and a beep sound will confirm that the tire pressure has been set according to the driver's adjustments. If a tire loses pressure during driving, causing incorrect tire pressure, the system will automatically trigger an alarm.

What Does 160 Horsepower Mean?

160 horsepower is equivalent to the power of a 123w engine. 1 horsepower is approximately equal to 735 watts. It generally refers to metric horsepower rather than imperial horsepower. 1 horsepower equals the work of completing 75 kilogram-force meters in 1 second, also equal to 0.735 kilowatts, or known as metric horsepower. Introduction: The greater the horsepower, the faster the car accelerates, the better the sports performance, the more enjoyable overtaking becomes, and the more exhilarating the driving experience. High-horsepower cars usually have very powerful engines, and the sensory impact of speed and sound combined with the roar of the engine can be very intense. Current Situation: Today, mainstream family cars generally have horsepower between 100-150, mainly with 1.6 and 1.4T engines. Naturally aspirated engines have much lower torque, usually around 150NM, while turbocharged engines in this category can achieve a torque output of 220NM, relative to a typical car weight of 1.3 tons. This is completely sufficient for everyday road driving.

Does Electric Vehicle Charging Produce Radiation?

Electric vehicle charging does produce radiation, but the intensity is very low and has no impact on human health. In fact, electric vehicles use direct current (DC), which has a fixed direction of transmission and an infinitely large cycle of change, theoretically meaning its frequency is zero. In other words, the magnetic field generated by DC is a constant magnetic field, not electromagnetic radiation produced by electrical excitation. Therefore, most of the electromagnetic radiation from electric vehicles comes from the electronic devices installed in the car itself, which is no different from that of fuel-powered vehicles. The United Nations authoritative safety standard for electromagnetic field strength is 100μT. The instantaneous radiation during a mobile phone call can reach 3μT; a hairdryer's radiation can reach 10μT; the national standard for mobile communication base stations is 40μT. However, the radiation from cars does not exceed 20μT, and this applies to all types of vehicles. Some pure electric vehicles even have lower electromagnetic radiation than certain fuel-powered cars. Even near the charging port of an electric vehicle, the radiation is only about 10μT, and if tested inside the car, there is virtually no electromagnetic radiation. Although the electromagnetic radiation from new energy vehicles has no impact on health, it is advisable not to stay inside the car while charging, as the process involves connection to high-voltage interfaces. For safety reasons, it is better to leave the car during charging.
