Sleeping in a car with the windows closed will not cause oxygen deprivation, as the vehicle is not an airtight space. Significant damage to the car's engine: Sleeping for extended periods with the air conditioning on while the car is stationary can have a major impact on the engine. Since the engine is running to provide power but the car is not moving, this increases the rate of carbon buildup in the engine and also raises fuel consumption. Can lead to increased fatigue: Sleeping in the car, due to the lack of proper seats and back support, often results in back and muscle pain during rest. Maintaining one position for a long time, especially when leaning against the seat, tends to concentrate pressure on the lower back. This sleeping posture further strains the back, leading to a feeling of increased fatigue rather than restfulness.

Should the first car be a fuel-powered vehicle or a new energy vehicle?

The differences between fuel-powered vehicles and new energy vehicles are as follows: Driving Operation: There is basically not much difference in driving operation between new energy vehicles and fuel-powered vehicles. Since the power source of new energy vehicles is electricity, their gear shifting is all knob-style. The starting method of fuel-powered vehicles is the same as that of new energy electric vehicles: press the brake and the start button, the vehicle starts the high-voltage system, turn the knob to D gear, release the handbrake, and the vehicle slowly slides out of the parking space like a fuel-powered vehicle. There is not much difference from fuel-powered vehicles in all these aspects. Different Power Sources: New energy vehicles accelerate faster and smoother compared to fuel-powered vehicles. Electric vehicles use power batteries as the power source and are driven by motors. The speed of the vehicle can be directly controlled by the size of the input current, which is a linear change, and the acceleration and deceleration changes of the vehicle are also linear. Ordinary fuel-powered vehicles, on the other hand, use transmissions, and the engine's power output to the wheels involves certain changes in the transmission ratio. Acceleration Performance: Comparing the acceleration performance of the vehicles, new energy vehicles accelerate faster. Pure electric vehicles only need to change the size of the input current to obtain different power outputs. In the subsequent use of fuel-powered vehicles, if the gear shifting is not coordinated, the engine power cannot be quickly output.

What are the differences between FAW and SAIC Volkswagen?

The differences between FAW and SAIC Volkswagen are as follows: In terms of cooperation time: SAIC Volkswagen was established in 1985, which was still in the early stages of China's reform and opening-up, while FAW started in 1991, coinciding with the golden era of reform and opening-up. Therefore, SAIC Volkswagen was seven years earlier than FAW Volkswagen, and FAW has a total of 28 years of cooperation with Volkswagen, so the seven-year gap is not insignificant. Differences in shareholding: FAW holds approximately 60% of the shares, making it the largest shareholder, with Volkswagen holding 30% and Audi holding 10%. In contrast, SAIC holds 50% of the shares, Volkswagen Group holds 40%, and the remaining 10% is owned by Volkswagen China. Of course, these are just general shareholding ratios, but it's clear that FAW has a more advantageous position. In terms of vehicle models: SAIC Volkswagen has the Santana, which achieved considerable success when it first entered the market. FAW Volkswagen, on the other hand, has the Jetta. Although both are Volkswagen brands, these two models are in significant competition. Currently, FAW Volkswagen primarily focuses on sedans, while SAIC not only has sedans but also boasts considerable strength in SUVs and MPVs. Therefore, in terms of vehicle models, SAIC has the upper hand.
