Ford Focus dashboard lights typically turn off 10 to 15 minutes after the engine is shut off. This model is equipped with a power-off delay device, which causes the dashboard lights to turn off a while after the car is locked. Once the dashboard lights are off, the various components of the vehicle's electrical system enter a dormant state, resulting in minimal power consumption. The Ford Focus is a compact car produced by Changan Ford, with dimensions of 4647mm in length, 1810mm in width, and 1468mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2705mm. It is available with either a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine or a 1.5T turbocharged engine, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, 6-speed automatic transmission, 8-speed automatic transmission, or 8-speed automatic manual transmission.

What are the differences between DM-p and DM-i?

The differences between DM-i and DM-p include technology, motor, displacement, transmission, and drive. The specific details are as follows: Technology differences: The design goal of DM-i is fuel efficiency, while DM-p aims for performance. Their structures, motor-engine selection, and configurations are all based on these design goals. The 2.0T engine equipped in DM-p has stronger performance data but uses more traditional technology. In contrast, DM-i's latest 1.5T Xiaoyun engine adopts the Miller cycle, featuring more advanced technology, higher thermal efficiency, and lower fuel consumption. Motor differences: Although both use permanent magnet synchronous motors, DM-i models all feature a front-mounted single motor, available in 145kW and 160kW versions. DM-p, besides having a rear-mounted 180kW single motor version, also offers two dual-motor models with front + rear (250kW + 180kW) configurations. Displacement differences: Both are equipped with turbocharged engines, but DM-p uses a 2.0T engine with a maximum power of 192 horsepower (141kW) and maximum torque of 320Nm. DM-i, on the other hand, uses a smaller 1.5T engine with a maximum power of 139 horsepower (102kW) and maximum torque of 231Nm. Transmission differences: DM-p is equipped with a traditional 6-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, while DM-i uses an E-CVT continuously variable transmission. Drive differences: All DM-p models are four-wheel drive, while DM-i models are two-wheel drive. The core concept of DM-i is electricity-first, fuel-supplemented. Structurally, DM-i super hybrid is based on a large-capacity battery and high-power motor. During driving, the vehicle primarily relies on the high-power motor for propulsion, while the gasoline engine mainly functions to charge the battery. It directly drives the wheels only when more power is needed, and even then, it works in synergy with the motor to reduce load. This hybrid technology differs from traditional hybrid systems that rely heavily on the engine, thereby more effectively reducing fuel consumption. DM-p adopts a dual-engine four-wheel-drive platform architecture. Older models included not only dual-engine four-wheel-drive but also triple-engine four-wheel-drive. Under this dual-engine four-wheel-drive architecture, DM-p can achieve five driving modes: EV pure electric, HEV parallel, HEV series, HEV high-speed, and HEV energy recovery. Technologically, BYD has developed three major systems for DM-p: torque management, energy management, and thermal management. From the analysis of the above modes, it's clear that the smooth execution of each mode relies on torque management and energy management. Torque management: If the engine torque is sufficient for overtaking, the motor doesn't need to start, saving electricity. If the P4 motor is sufficient for EV pure electric driving, the front P0 motor doesn't need to start. Energy management: If the battery charge is insufficient, the vehicle will drive in series mode. As speed increases further, it switches to HEV high-speed mode. If the battery charge is sufficient, the higher-quality EV pure electric mode can be used, or the HEV parallel mode can be employed for rapid acceleration. BYD's hybrid technology is collectively referred to as "Dual Mode," abbreviated as DM. The evolution timeline of DM is: 2008, DM1 was introduced; 2013, DM2 was released; 2018, updated to DM3. Then came the current DM-p and DM-i. According to BYD's official statement, DM-p/i are not considered DM4 but rather technological derivatives of DM3.

Is it illegal for car window tinting to be invisible from the outside?

Window tinting that makes the interior invisible from the outside is illegal. Here is a detailed introduction to the pros and cons of car window tinting: 1. Good privacy: Generally, car window tinting is one-way, which can protect the owner's privacy, but owners need to verify when choosing car window tinting. 2. Anti-explosion effect: In case of an accident, the glass with window tinting will stick together when broken, avoiding glass splashing and protecting passengers. 3. Thermal insulation: High-quality car window tinting can provide thermal insulation, effectively controlling the rise of interior temperature in summer and suppressing heat dissipation in winter, maintaining a comfortable driving environment. 4. Reduced light transmittance: The light transmittance of car window tinting does not exceed 90%, especially when applied to the front windshield, reduced light transmittance can affect driving safety.

What does U-turn mean?

Car U-turn refers to the situation where the car changes its driving direction by 180° on roads where U-turns are permitted. Before making a U-turn, first turn on the left signal, slow down (to about five kilometers per hour) or even stop, pay attention to the road conditions, and closely monitor the traffic situation (especially for vehicles that are far away but moving at high speed). Stop and wait if necessary. Road U-turn skills: First turn on the turn signal and enter the turning lane. Before changing lanes, observe the situation in the lane you are entering, then change direction and slow down. At the stop line, reduce the speed to almost a complete stop, and after confirming safety, make a full U-turn. After completing the U-turn, stay near the central yellow line in the lane, then turn on the turn signal to enter your own lane.
