A BJ40 can travel approximately 550 kilometers on a full tank of gas. The fuel tank size varies depending on the engine displacement—larger engines with higher fuel consumption have bigger tanks, while smaller engines with lower consumption have smaller tanks. Methods to check fuel capacity: Check the fuel gauge, which indicates the amount of fuel remaining in the car's fuel tank. The gauge can be either a pointer or a digital display. The low-fuel warning light activates when the fuel level drops below a certain threshold. Fuel tank capacity: This refers to the size of the fuel tank, which determines how much fuel a vehicle can hold. The tank capacity directly affects the driving range. For two cars with identical engines, the one with the larger tank will travel farther. Drivers typically know their vehicle's fuel tank capacity through two main sources: the manufacturer's specifications in the owner's manual and their own refueling experience.

As an experienced driver who has driven many cars, I estimate the BJ40 SUV has a fuel tank capacity of around 80 liters, with a combined fuel consumption of 11-14L/100km. So it's quite normal to get 450 to 600 kilometers on a full tank. Of course, the actual range depends on your driving conditions – fuel consumption spikes in city traffic jams, possibly limiting you to just over 400 km, while highway cruising is more economical, easily exceeding 550 km. Additionally, factors like vehicle load and air conditioning usage also affect range. I recommend maintaining proper tire pressure and engine condition, avoiding aggressive acceleration to extend driving range. Checking fuel levels before long trips is the safest approach to avoid roadside breakdowns. Overall, this vehicle is suitable for medium-distance travel, with fuel consumption that's neither particularly high nor low.

Buddy, I'm used to commuting in my BJ40. Normally, a full tank can last me about 400 to 500 kilometers. In city traffic, fuel burns up fast, with consumption hitting 15L/100km, barely making it to 450km. On weekends, when I hit the highway for trips, maintaining a steady speed can stretch it to 550km. Fuel-saving tips? Turning off the AC and opening windows, planning routes to avoid peak hours definitely help, plus choosing the right fuel type—higher octane gas might not save money but stabilizes the engine. Also, a heavy body and a fully loaded trunk guzzle more fuel, so travel light. Don’t underestimate daily habits—regular air filter changes can boost efficiency!

As an environmentally conscious individual, I've calculated that the BJ40 can travel about 450 kilometers on a full tank of fuel. However, to be honest, its fuel consumption is relatively high, averaging around 12L/100km, which is not environmentally friendly. If you truly want to save resources, I recommend opting for a hybrid or electric SUV instead, as driving gasoline-powered vehicles has a significant environmental impact. Driving habits can also be improved: maintaining a steady speed of 60-80km/h and avoiding sudden acceleration can extend your range by dozens of kilometers, saving both fuel and money. Additionally, using air conditioning in summer increases energy consumption, so try to use ventilation mode whenever possible. For short trips, consider walking or taking public transport. Protecting the environment starts with small details, not just focusing on mileage numbers.

What causes engine shaking at idle?

The reasons for engine shaking at idle are as follows: 1. Fuel quality issues: The shaking may be caused by fuel quality problems, such as using gasoline with a lower octane rating than recommended or poor-quality gasoline, which can lead to idle shaking. If this problem occurs immediately after refueling, it is most likely due to fuel quality issues. In this case, it is necessary to go to a 4S shop for inspection and repair to see if the engine has been damaged. 2. Spark plug issues: Aging, damage, or malfunction of spark plugs can also cause idle shaking. For example, excessive carbon buildup on spark plugs can be resolved by replacing them with a new set, and the shaking problem will disappear.

What Are Cruise Control and Adaptive Cruise Control?

Here are the detailed introductions of cruise control and adaptive cruise control: 1. Cruise Control: Cruise control consists of four main components: the command switch, vehicle speed sensor, electronic throttle actuator, and ECU. However, this function is generally set with a minimum speed limit in most vehicles, meaning the car's computer will only maintain a "consistent and stable" speed when a certain speed is reached. Apart from this, operations such as steering and braking still need to be controlled by the driver. 2. Adaptive Cruise Control: Adaptive cruise control can be considered an upgraded version of cruise control. During driving, the distance sensor (radar) installed at the front of the vehicle continuously scans the road ahead, while the wheel speed sensor collects speed signals. When the distance to the vehicle in front becomes too small, the adaptive cruise control unit can coordinate with the anti-lock braking system (ABS) and engine control system to apply appropriate braking and reduce engine output power, thereby maintaining a safe distance from the vehicle ahead.

Can trucks with ETC use the ETC lane?

Trucks equipped with ETC can use the ETC lane, but they must pass through the weighing lane before entering the highway. When exiting the highway, they can directly use the ETC lane. ETC usage precautions: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. If the vehicle in front stops, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters to prevent automatic payment for the vehicle ahead in case its ETC device malfunctions or is absent. The ETC lane recognizes vehicles at a speed of 20 km/h. Driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information and unsuccessful fee deduction. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, or if the ETC electronic tag falls off or becomes loose, will render the tag invalid. In such cases, the device can be taken to the bank where the ETC card was issued or to a highway service office for inspection. If the issue is not due to human interference, reactivation may be sufficient.
