Yes, the Trumpchi GS8 does offer a 4WD version. I've used this vehicle myself and specifically chose the 4WD variant when selecting the model. It feels exceptionally stable to drive, especially on rainy or icy roads where the system automatically distributes power to all four wheels, significantly reducing the risk of skidding. For someone like me who frequently takes family trips to the countryside, this feature is highly practical and boosts confidence when climbing hills or navigating rough terrain. Compared to the front-wheel-drive version, the 4WD does consume slightly more fuel, but the improvement in safety performance is substantial. I've checked out the latest GS8 models, and the higher-end series all come with 4WD options, featuring rich configurations like adjustable intelligent drive modes, which provide a more balanced overall driving experience. If you live in mountainous or rainy areas, I strongly recommend considering it.

Does Driving the Lynk & Co 03 in Sport Mode Damage the Car?

Using the sport mode in the Lynk & Co 03 does not damage the car. However, prolonged use of sport mode may indirectly cause some impact on the vehicle. Introduction to Sport Mode: The sport mode in an automatic transmission car is a driving mode, commonly referred to as the S gear (S stands for sport). In S gear sport mode, the transmission can shift freely, but the shifting timing is delayed, keeping the engine at high RPMs for a longer period to deliver instant high torque, thereby increasing the vehicle's power. How to Use Sport Mode: Start the vehicle and power it on fully. Press the button inside the car for economy mode or sport mode, and the car will then enter the selected mode.

Is the viewing point earlier or later when the seat is forward in Subject 2?

When the seat is forward, the viewing point will be earlier. If the seat is adjusted higher, each operation should be performed a little earlier. Conversely, if the seat is adjusted lower, the timing of each operation can be slightly delayed. According to the "three-point alignment" principle, it refers to the alignment of the eyes, a specific reference point on the car, and the third point where the ray from these two points projects onto the ground. Methods for properly adjusting the seat: 1. Sitting posture: First, sit as far back as possible with your hips, ideally touching the junction between the seat cushion and the backrest. This helps you sit more stably and avoid wobbling. 2. Feet: Press the clutch pedal fully with your left foot and the brake pedal with your right foot. Your legs should not be fully extended; keep your knees slightly bent to maintain strength. Adjust the seat's forward and backward position to achieve this state. Sitting too far back may make it difficult to press the clutch or brake effectively, while sitting too far forward may cause your knees to hit the interior panels, affecting your operation. 3. Hands: Rest your hands naturally on the steering wheel, with your wrists positioned right above the top of the steering wheel. Keep your back straight, and then adjust the seat backrest to fit your lower back. Generally, the backrest angle should be close to or exactly 90 degrees. 4. Head: Adjust the seat so that there is at least a fist's distance between your head and the car's roof. Use this standard to set the seat height. If you are shorter, you can also use a seat cushion for assistance.

What are the consequences of filling a Lynk & Co 02 with 92-octane gasoline?

The fuel tank of the Lynk & Co 02 is labeled for 95-octane gasoline. If you occasionally fill it with 92-octane gasoline, there won't be much impact on the engine. However, prolonged use of 92-octane gasoline may affect the engine's lifespan and performance. Using gasoline with a lower octane rating than recommended can cause premature combustion, leading to engine knocking. Incomplete combustion of the gasoline can also result in increased carbon deposits, which may clog the fuel injectors and ducts. Additionally, you may experience reduced vehicle power and increased fuel consumption. Conversely, using gasoline with a higher octane rating than recommended can also lead to incomplete combustion and unnecessary waste. Therefore, it's best to follow the fuel grade specified on the fuel tank cap. For example, a car designed for 92-octane gasoline can use 95-octane, but a car designed for 95-octane should not use 92-octane. In China, common gasoline grades include 92-octane and 95-octane. The higher the octane number, the higher the gasoline's resistance to knocking. Generally, higher-performance cars have higher compression ratios and require higher-octane gasoline. Using lower-octane gasoline in such engines can cause rapid temperature increases and knocking.

Does the Lynk & Co 03 have seat ventilation?

The Lynk & Co 03 2.0 offers optional seat ventilation, while the 1.5 models do not have this feature across the entire lineup. Design principle of ventilated seats: Seat ventilation works by designers using fans to inject air into the seat, which then flows out through small holes on the seat surface, achieving the ventilation function. When passengers sit on the seat, the back of their body is in close contact with the seat surface, creating areas where air does not circulate. This hinders sweat evaporation and can cause discomfort. Advantages of ventilated seats: The ventilation function effectively improves the air circulation environment between the body and the seat surface, ensuring that even during prolonged sitting, the contact area remains dry and comfortable. Seat ventilation is achieved by adding fans to the back of the seat cushion and backrest foam, which draw in air and direct it to the ventilation layer.
