Guangzhou's energy-saving license plate can be reapplied for the lottery two years after expiration. Situation after two years of lottery: If the incremental quotas obtained by individuals or units through the lottery method are invalidated due to overdue non-use, they cannot apply for incremental quotas again within 2 years from the date of quota invalidation. Introduction to car purchase lottery: The method of lottery car purchase is to first register for an appointment and queue, and then participate in the lottery uniformly. No money is required for the lottery car purchase. The computer randomly generates 10 numbers, and the lottery participant selects one number from them. Car lottery is a measure of vehicle purchase restriction, which limits the number of car licenses issued. The lottery is actually similar to drawing lots, and only those who win have the qualification to buy a car.

In Guangzhou, after an energy-efficient license plate expires, you can usually apply for the lottery again immediately without any additional waiting period. According to Guangzhou's small passenger car quota regulation system, there is generally no cooling-off period for energy-efficient vehicle quotas, meaning you can submit your application in the next lottery cycle once it expires. I find this quite user-friendly, as it avoids unnecessary delays. However, I recommend checking in advance whether your application materials, such as identity proof and environmental certification, are up to date to prevent submission failures. Energy-efficient vehicles offer many benefits, not only reducing carbon emissions but also enjoying policy incentives like tax breaks. Don’t forget that Guangzhou’s lottery is usually held monthly or quarterly—check the official website of the transportation bureau for real-time updates to avoid missing out. The application process is also simple: just log in to the designated platform and re-register. In short, don’t let expiration affect your plans; take action promptly and continue participating in the lottery.

What is the principle of a manual transmission in a car?

Manual transmission in cars operates by utilizing different gear combinations to achieve speed and torque variation. A manual transmission primarily consists of gears and shafts. In contrast, an automatic transmission functions through hydraulic power transmission and gear combinations to achieve speed and torque variation. An automatic transmission (AT) is composed of a torque converter, planetary gears, and a hydraulic control system. For example, a combined transmission refers to a hydromechanical transmission that consists of a torque converter and a geared stepped transmission, where the transmission ratio can vary continuously within several discontinuous ranges between the maximum and minimum values. The torque converter is composed of components such as the pump impeller, turbine, and guide wheel, directly receiving engine power to transmit torque and perform clutch functions.

Does a company vehicle ETC require deduction from the corporate account?

When a company vehicle applies for an ETC under the company account, the deductions will be made from the corporate account. How ETC works: Through the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield, dedicated short-range communication is established with the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station. Computer networking technology is then used for backend settlement processing with the bank, enabling vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping while still paying the required fees. Benefits of installing ETC: Saves time: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and eco-friendly: Promotes low-carbon travel by allowing vehicles to pass through toll stations without stopping, reducing noise and exhaust emissions, thereby minimizing pollution; Reduces wear and tear: Saves costs by decreasing the frequency of vehicle starts and brakes, lowering wear and fuel consumption. Users also enjoy a 5% discount on toll fees; Improves efficiency: Theoretically, ETC lanes can process vehicles 2-3 times faster, making traditional ETC more updated, faster, and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous.
