I've been driving a FAW Besturn X40, which is equipped with a 4-cylinder, 1.6L engine. It runs smoothly without the vibration issues common in 3-cylinder engines. The fuel consumption is also quite good, averaging around 6.5L per 100km in city commuting, which is quite economical. I use it for daily commutes and it's comfortable even on long trips. The engine noise is minimal, and the acceleration response is timely, making it suitable for everyday driving. Regular maintenance is crucial—remember to change the engine oil and check the spark plugs every six months. Overall, this car is reliable, spacious, and while not overly powerful, it handles various road conditions well. With low maintenance costs, it's a practical choice.

My years of driving experience tell me that the Bestune X40's engine is a 4-cylinder unit. It runs smoothly and reliably, without the shaking sensation common in 3-cylinder cars. The fuel consumption is reasonable, around 6 liters per 100 kilometers, making it economical and worry-free for long-term use. I advise beginners to pay attention to avoiding engine carbon buildup and adhere to regular maintenance. Having driven various models, I find this engine design classic, suitable for both city and highway driving.

I drove the Besturn X40 for a family trip, equipped with a 4-cylinder engine that delivers a comfortable and stable ride without unnecessary vibrations. It offers excellent fuel efficiency, with a fuel consumption of around 6 liters per 100 kilometers, saving a lot on expenses. The spacious interior ensures that children don't feel cramped in the back seats.

It's convenient for city commuting, and the engine noise is low.

What does 1.8td mean

1.8td refers to turbocharged direct injection. Below is relevant information about turbocharged direct injection: 1. Function: Increases engine air intake, thereby enhancing engine power and torque, making the vehicle more powerful. After applying turbocharging technology, the engine can output greater power while improving fuel economy and reducing exhaust emissions. 2. Working principle: The direct injection engine injects fuel into the combustion chamber during the intake stroke. Since the fuel spray moves slower than the piston's downward speed, the pressure around the fuel spray is lower, allowing the fuel to quickly diffuse and evaporate, forming a homogeneous combustion mixture.

What is the correct sequence for parking and shifting gears?

The correct sequence for parking and shifting gears is to press the brake pedal, shift from D (Drive) to P (Park), engage the handbrake, release the foot brake, and then turn off the engine and remove the key. Below is relevant information about car gears: 1. P (Park) gear: This is the parking and starting gear. When the car is parked and not in use, it mechanically locks the wheels to prevent the vehicle from rolling. 2. N (Neutral) gear: This is the neutral gear. It is used for temporary stops (such as at traffic lights). Since this gear position means the transmission is disengaged, you must keep your foot on the brake to prevent the car from rolling on a slope. 3. Operation steps: For automatic transmission vehicles, simply push the gear lever to the corresponding position. Manual-automatic transmission vehicles may not have as many gear positions. Besides P, R (Reverse), and N (these three gears are essential for automatic transmission vehicles), the forward gear is usually just D (Drive) (for example, in the FAW Mazda 6). Other gear functions can be achieved through manual mode.

What is the appropriate tire pressure for a new car?

New car tire pressure is appropriate between 2.3bar and 2.5bar, and the specific pressure should be based on the manufacturer's recommended tire pressure. The following are reference factors regarding tire pressure: 1. Seasonal factors: a. Winter: Based on the standard tire pressure of the car, it is appropriate to increase it by about 0.2bar. b. Summer: Based on the standard tire pressure of the car, it is appropriate to decrease it by about 0.1bar to avoid tire blowouts due to high temperatures. 2. Load factors: a. Empty load: Follow the lower limit of the standard tire pressure (the tire pressure indicated on the vehicle's label can be used as a reference for the minimum tire pressure). b. Full load: When fully loaded, follow the upper limit of the standard tire pressure (the maximum tire pressure indicated on the tire can be used as a reference for the theoretical maximum tire pressure).
