The rear seat of the new Bora does not have a steel plate. The backrest of the Bora's rear seat is split into two parts, both of which can be folded forward individually to increase the trunk capacity. The new Bora is the first independently designed model by FAW-Volkswagen, with a body size of 4562mm in length, 1793mm in width, and 1468mm in height. In terms of appearance, the new Bora inherits the classic Volkswagen family-style front face while incorporating a more youthful and refined design language. The new Bora adopts a luxury car design style with a shortened front overhang and an extended rear overhang, making the vehicle appear more elongated visually. In terms of exterior design, the new Bora uses strong and flowing lines to outline a three-dimensional and elegant overall shape.

I've studied the internal safety designs of many Volkswagen models, and the question of whether the new Bora has steel plates in the rear seats is indeed noteworthy. Based on the engineering data I've collected, the Bora's mid-to-high trim levels are equipped with high-strength steel plates inside the backrests of the rear seats. This design primarily prevents luggage in the trunk from penetrating into the passenger compartment during a rear-end collision, significantly enhancing rear passenger safety in extreme crash scenarios. However, this feature might be omitted in the base trim, so it's essential to check the official configuration list at the time of purchase. I recommend testing by pressing your fingers against the backrest during inspection—the steel plate area will feel noticeably rigid. Don't underestimate this steel plate; it can be life-saving in critical moments. That said, overall vehicle safety should also consider factors like body structure and airbag systems.

How to Adjust the Rearview Mirror of the Leiling?

Toyota Leiling's rearview mirror adjustment varies based on the driver's height and seating posture for optimal angle settings. Adjustment Buttons: The rearview mirror can be adjusted separately for the left and right sides. On the left side of the dashboard, you will find the rearview mirror adjustment button. Press the switch to the "L" position to adjust the angle of the left rearview mirror, or to the "R" position for the right rearview mirror. Press the left or right button to adjust the mirror's horizontal angle, and press the up or down button to adjust the vertical angle. Rearview Mirror: The rearview mirror is a tool that allows the driver to directly obtain external information about the rear, side, and lower areas of the vehicle while seated in the driver's seat. For the convenience of the driver and to prevent traffic safety accidents, ensuring personal safety, all countries mandate that vehicles must be equipped with rearview mirrors, and all mirrors must be adjustable in direction.

How to Clean Headlights?

Methods for cleaning headlights: 1. Remove surface dust by wiping the headlights with a cloth; 2. Cover the edges of the headlights with tape to avoid unnecessary scratches; 3. Wipe the headlights with a cloth, soak a piece of 1000-grit sandpaper in cold water for 10 minutes, then evenly sand the headlight housing in a back-and-forth motion in one direction, being careful not to damage the surrounding paint or trim; 4. Repeat the above steps with 1500-grit sandpaper, then clean and repeat multiple times with 2000-grit, 2500-grit, and 3000-grit sandpaper, each time at a right angle to the previous direction; 5. Apply polish to the plastic housing and polish in a circular motion for about ten minutes, paying attention to the pressure to prevent removing the car paint.

How to activate the cruise control on Changan CS75 PLUS?

To use the cruise control on the Changan CS75 PLUS, when the vehicle speed reaches above 80, press the corresponding function button to activate it. Cruise Control: The cruise control system, abbreviated as CCS, is also known as the cruise control driving device, speed control system, or autonomous driving system. Usage Method: The Changan CS75 PLUS is equipped with IACC adaptive cruise control. Simply locate the IACC button on the steering wheel, enable the automatic following and lane-keeping functions, and it's ready to use. This vehicle features the IACC adaptive cruise control system, fully achieving Level 2 autonomous driving. When the speed exceeds 60 km/h, it can automatically identify the target lane and vehicle ahead, enabling automatic following. In traffic congestion, the traffic jam assist can be activated. If the speed is below 60 km/h and lane markings are identifiable, the vehicle can adaptively drive within the lane. If lane markings are not detectable, it can closely follow the vehicle ahead. When approaching a curve, the vehicle can recognize the upcoming bend and gradually decelerate to navigate the turn, then accelerate back to the preset speed upon exiting the curve.

What does it mean when the Magotan detects pressure loss?

Magotan detecting pressure loss is a warning issued by the tire pressure monitoring system. Pressure loss: Pressure loss, also known as pressure drop or pressure differential, is a technical and economic indicator that represents the amount of energy consumed by a device. It is expressed as the total pressure difference of the fluid at the inlet and outlet of the device, essentially reflecting the mechanical energy consumed by the fluid passing through a dust removal device (or other devices), and is directly proportional to the power consumed by the fan. Under the premise of ensuring dust removal efficiency, the pressure loss should be as small as possible. The pressure loss of most dust removal devices is 1-2%. For fans used in dust removal equipment, the greater the pressure loss, the smaller the fan needs to be, requiring a balance to achieve optimal dust removal performance. Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): The Tire Pressure Monitoring System, abbreviated as "TPMS," stands for "tire pressure monitoring system." This technology can automatically monitor various conditions of the tires in real time by recording the rotation speed of the tires or through electronic sensors installed inside the tires, providing effective safety protection for driving.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the old Nissan Qashqai in liters?

The fuel tank capacity of the old Nissan Qashqai is 57 liters. Fuel tank capacity measurement unit: Internationally, L (liters) is the standard unit for measuring automobile fuel tank capacity. Different countries have corresponding standards for fuel tank capacity. In China, the regulation stipulates that the fuel tank capacity should be 95% of the rated value, but in practice, the actual capacity is generally larger than the nominal capacity, so there's no need to worry about the fuel tank being smaller than expected. Fuel tank capacity range: Generally, small cars have fuel tank capacities of 35-45 liters, while mid-size cars have capacities around 55-75 liters. Fuel tank design principle: Utilizing the heat energy generated by the engine during operation, an additional thermal circulation system is added between the engine, fuel tank, and radiator. The original single fuel tank design is transformed into a combined fuel tank system consisting of a main tank and an auxiliary tank.
