As someone who frequently helps friends choose cars, I know the Prado's engines inside out. This vehicle has undergone multiple power adjustments, from the early 2.7L inline-four engine to the later mainstream 4.0L V6 large-displacement engine, and now the new model is equipped with a more powerful 2.4T four-cylinder hybrid system. In daily driving, the V6 version is the most popular among experienced drivers—smooth, powerful, and exceptionally durable. When climbing high-altitude slopes, it delivers as much power as you need with the throttle, and with proper maintenance, it can easily run 300,000 kilometers. For recommendations, the most reliable option in the used car market is the post-2010 V6 version, as its power reserve and stability have stood the test of time.

What does in-person verification at the DMV mean?

In-person verification at the DMV refers to the process where an individual brings their second-generation ID card to the DMV in person, registers and logs into the Internet Traffic Safety Comprehensive Service Management Platform, and submits all required information on-site for review by the driving license administration. Relevant details are as follows: 1. Situations requiring in-person verification: Generally, after a student completes their medical examination, the driving school will register the student's information online, known as online verification. Only in cases where a student's identity or phone number information is abnormal is in-person verification at the DMV required. Both online and in-person verification are processes for the Ministry of Public Security to confirm identity online. 2. Services available after in-person verification: Self-scheduling for beginner driver tests, cross-regional examination systems, and renewal of expired driver's licenses.

How to Quickly Improve Driving Skills?

Here are methods to quickly improve driving skills: 1. Familiarize yourself with various controls in the cockpit as soon as possible: such as seat adjustment, how to fasten the seat belt, the use of the gear lever, various instrument panels, steering wheel, clutch, brake, accelerator, ignition switch, etc., and ensure correct operation, with the brake being the most important. 2. Get to know the width and length of the vehicle: Have a rough estimate of the car's width and length to judge whether the car can pass through some special road conditions. 3. Practice simulation exercises regularly: When not driving, mentally go through the entire driving process like watching a movie in your mind, and simulate driving actions with your hands and feet. This way, when actually driving, you won't feel as nervous or at a loss, and your driving skills will improve accordingly.

What Are the Hazards of Stalling a Manual Transmission Vehicle?

Normally stalling a manual transmission vehicle causes almost no harm, but frequent stalling can have minor impacts on the vehicle. Below is a detailed explanation of the hazards associated with stalling a manual transmission car: 1. Battery Damage: After stalling, unburned gasoline tends to accumulate in the cylinders, leading to carbon deposits. Frequent restarts after stalling can shorten the battery's lifespan. When stalling occurs frequently during short-distance driving, the high power consumption during each restart combined with insufficient charging due to short trips can significantly reduce the battery's longevity. 2. Damage to Other Components: Stalling during startup can harm the vehicle and affect its components. A sudden loss of power while the engine is running can cause severe friction and impact damage to parts. It also affects oil lubrication. Prolonged exposure to overly rich fuel mixtures may dilute the engine oil, as fuel from the mixture can seep into the oil chamber through piston ring gaps, impairing the oil's lubrication effectiveness.
