The manufacturer's warranty for the Toyota Highlander hybrid battery is 8 years or 200,000 kilometers. The actual lifespan depends on factors such as driving environment, road conditions, and driving habits. Advantages of the Highlander hybrid battery: The nickel-metal hydride battery is relatively small in size, lightweight, and has good durability. Its weight is negligible during driving. Even if it needs replacement, the cost is not much different from that of a regular battery, which is much better than the pure plug-in lithium batteries of new energy vehicles. Car battery maintenance: When a car battery is not used for a long time, it will slowly discharge on its own until it is scrapped. Therefore, it is recommended to start the car periodically to recharge the battery. Avoid leaving the car in an open parking lot for extended periods. If the car is to be parked for a long time, the battery should be removed and taken away to prevent damage from freezing. The battery's charge level can be monitored on the dashboard. When the ammeter shows insufficient charge, the battery should be recharged promptly.

How Many Years Should You Drive a Car Before Replacing It?

From the perspective of a car's value, the most suitable time to sell it is during the 5-6 year period. Below is relevant information about selling a car: Selling Procedures: Generally, a complete used car transaction should include three steps: the buying and selling transaction, transfer registration, and tax and fee change registration. In actual daily transactions, none of these three steps can be omitted. Selling Tips: First, it's important to note that cars aged 2-3 years are the easiest to sell. According to a used car brokerage company, vehicles that are 2-3 years old, due to their relatively short usage time, generally haven't been involved in major accidents that could cause severe damage. Therefore, vehicles of this age are relatively more favored. Secondly, the overall condition of the vehicle is quite important. The overall condition of the vehicle is the most critical aspect when a used car brokerage company evaluates it.

Has the Jetta VS5 been discontinued?

Jetta VS5 has not been discontinued; only the 2020 model has been phased out. The reasons for the lagging sales of Jetta VS5 are as follows: 1. Insufficient brand influence: Although Jetta is backed by Volkswagen and the Jetta model itself is a well-known Volkswagen model, the Jetta brand was only launched in 2019. Public perception of it remains limited to the impression of 'Volkswagen's low-end brand.' 2. Strong competition from domestic brands: The progress of domestic car brands is evident. While Jetta VS5 benefits from its joint venture halo, for consumers in this price range, practicality and cost-performance ratio are the most important factors. These are precisely the strengths of domestic models in this price segment. The top-end version of Jetta VS5 can easily be matched by the Haval H6, which offers better body size and configuration, making the product strength of Jetta VS5 less prominent. 3. Cheap driving feel: Despite Volkswagen Group's technical backing, the Jetta brand is positioned as low-end, utilizing only the manufacturing processes of Volkswagen's entry-level models for its major components and production techniques. The driving feel of Jetta VS5 is even inferior to Volkswagen's low-end models, especially in terms of noise insulation. Jetta VS5 performs poorly in this aspect, with noticeable engine and wind noise.

Can I Shift Directly from 1st Gear to 2nd Gear by Pulling Down?

No. It is not advisable to directly pull down from 1st gear to 2nd gear during Subject 3 (road test). Since this is an examination, many operations must follow the prescribed steps; otherwise, the system may fail to detect the action, leading to point deductions. Therefore, for Subject 3, it is more appropriate to shift from 1st gear to neutral first and then pull down to 2nd gear. Additional tips for Subject 3 are as follows: Speed Reduction: When hearing the voice prompt, activate the right turn signal, observe the traffic behind, and reduce speed or downshift if necessary. After ensuring safety, gradually move into the right lane. When the raised part of the windshield wiper aligns with the right lane line, the vehicle should be approximately 30 centimeters away from the line. Courtesy: During encounters with other vehicles, adhere to the "three yielding principles"—slow down first, yield first, and stop first. Avoid aggressive driving or refusing to yield, which could lead to a standoff.
