Someone has bought the SongSan Dolphin SS. The SS-DELPHIN is currently the only model available for sale under the SongSan Motor brand, and it is produced by the Xi'an BYD factory. The SS-DELPHIN perfectly replicates the appearance of the American muscle car Corvette C1. Its four circular headlights have a unique design, and the elongated front hood lacks excessive sharp line decorations. Below are some driving precautions: Check the rearview mirrors: When turning or changing lanes, you must use the turn signals, slow down, and always check the rearview mirrors before turning. For left turns, primarily look at the left rearview mirror; for right turns, primarily look at the right rearview mirror; for both left and right turns, check the interior rearview mirror. Avoid staring directly in front of the car: When driving on clear roads, look straight ahead about 100 meters, not just at the immediate front of the car. Press the clutch: Generally, when decelerating above 40 km/h, there's no need to press the clutch first; wait until the speed drops to around 20 km/h before pressing it. Steering: Turn the wheel slowly for high-speed turns and quickly for low-speed turns.

I learned about it from discussions in the car enthusiast group—some people have indeed bought the Songsuo Dolphin SS. I saw a post from a fan in my social circle showing off that he purchased this car, and he got it last year. This car is a retro-style electric model launched by Songsuo Motor, based on the BYD Dolphin with modifications. Its design is very retro, resembling the style of the 1950s, and it's priced around 300,000 RMB, which isn’t cheap. However, fans in niche circles particularly favor its unique appearance. I heard the initial batch had limited availability and was sold in limited quantities, so it didn’t make much noise in forums. But some actual buyers have reported that it drives smoothly, accelerates steadily, and has a refined interior, though parts and repairs can be slightly troublesome due to its custom nature. Those who love the classic car vibe find it worthwhile, but mainstream market sales aren’t high. I’d suggest interested buyers check out more social media posts for real-user experiences.

As someone who follows the automotive industry, it's certain that the Songshu Dolphin SS has its buyers. This car was launched in 2022, positioned as a niche retro electric vehicle with a higher price tag but a clear target audience—those seeking individuality and collectors. At auto shows, I've met several buyers who shared that they purchased it because of its unique design, technology backed by BYD's platform, and decently practical range. Sales figures aren't public, but judging from the reservation info on the official website, the initial batches sold out quickly. Occasionally, new owners share their experiences on forums, mentioning that the space is small but adequate. Overall market feedback is polarized—some love its looks, while others find it too expensive compared to the more economical regular Dolphin. If you're worried about value for money, a test drive would give you a better idea.

What's the reason for the car not accelerating while driving?

The reasons why a car cannot accelerate while driving: 1. Low fuel pressure or air in the fuel line, poor signal from the air flow meter in the circuit, poor signal from the throttle position sensor, damaged ignition coil, delayed ignition timing, or incorrect spark plug gap (either too large or too small) can all cause the car to fail to accelerate when stepping on the gas pedal. In addition, a clogged three-way catalytic converter could also lead to this condition. Moreover, if the engine speed rises normally but the engine noise is loud, it might be in a neutral idling state without being in gear, requiring inspection of the transmission. 2. Poor quality fuel used by the owner can affect the gasoline filter and fuel line, possibly leading to poor fuel supply and thus failure to accelerate. It can also impact the lifespan of the exhaust system's three-way catalytic converter. If the three-way catalytic converter is clogged, it will directly affect the vehicle's acceleration performance and also lead to increased fuel consumption.

Can You Drive in Sandals?

Requirements for driving footwear: 1. You can drive in sandals, but sandals come in various types, among which high-heeled sandals are not suitable for driving. According to relevant regulations, motor vehicle drivers are not allowed to drive barefoot, in slippers, or in high heels. 2. In addition, snow boots, thick-soled sports shoes, platform shoes, and Crocs are also not suitable for driving. These types of shoes restrict joint movement due to the coverage of the legs and ankles, reducing sensitivity and increasing the risk of rear-end collisions due to delayed braking. 3. Slippers are not allowed because they do not stay securely on the feet and can easily slip off, leading to brake slippage in emergency situations. Moreover, driving in slippers can cause inaccuracies in controlling the clutch and accelerator, posing significant safety hazards. For the safety of yourself and others, avoid wearing footwear that compromises driving safety.

How Serious Is the Problem of Cockroaches in the Car?

Cockroach Removal Methods: 1. Cockroach Spray: Spray cockroach spray, also known as insecticide, into the corners of the car. After spraying, close the car windows and wait for a day to kill the cockroaches. However, this method is not long-lasting, and chemical products can be somewhat harmful to the human body. Note: After using the spray, ensure proper ventilation before entering the car, and clean up the dead cockroaches. 2. Cockroach Bait or Gel: Place some cockroach bait or gel in areas where cockroaches might appear, such as door gaps, under seats, or in the trunk, to serve as a lure. Be cautious to prevent children from touching or ingesting it. 3. Soapy Water: If you spot a cockroach, you can directly spray hot soapy water on it, although this requires face-to-face contact. Hot soapy water can effectively repel and kill cockroaches.

Does driving through deep water affect the car?

Suggestions for driving through deep water: 1. If the car stalls while wading through water, never attempt to restart the engine. Even if you try, it will be difficult or impossible to start, which can cause damage to the engine or even lead to severe engine failure. Therefore, after stalling, stay calm and immediately turn off the ignition switch. Do not attempt to restart the engine and send the car to a repair shop promptly to avoid greater losses. 2. If the water is deep, be sure to conduct a thorough inspection of the vehicle afterward, including electrical components, the air filter, and the chassis. If necessary, completely replace the engine oil and transmission fluid, as the engine oil pan and transmission have some air holes, making it hard to tell if water has entered. If water has mixed in, it can easily deteriorate. 3. Driving through water carries certain risks. If the depth of the water is not accurately judged, and the water is deep, there may be no immediate impact, but once water flows into the air intake, it can cause the engine to stall. Therefore, before driving through water, keep a few points in mind. First, go slow—"speed through sand, slow through water." Whether it's a manual or automatic transmission, shift to the lowest gear during the process. This not only helps control speed but also utilizes the engine's maximum torque to smoothly overcome any obstacles and pass through the waterlogged section.
