Passat can run 500-600 kilometers on a full tank of fuel. Here are the specific details: Rule: Generally, car manufacturers follow a rule that the full tank capacity usually supports driving about 600 kilometers, not less than 500 kilometers. Fuel tank capacity (L): Its size measures the ability of a car to carry fuel. The size of the fuel tank is directly related to the car's fuel consumption. Generally, a full tank can drive more than 500 kilometers. For example, a car that consumes 10 liters per 100 kilometers usually has a fuel tank capacity of about 60 liters. The fuel tank capacity of each car model is different, and even the same type of car from different brands has different fuel tank capacities because there is no national standard.

I've been driving the Volkswagen Passat 330 for several years, and a full tank of gas usually gets me around 800 to 900 kilometers, and that's when driving relatively smoothly. The fuel tank capacity is 66 liters, and the official combined fuel consumption is 7 liters per 100 kilometers, so theoretically, it could reach around 940 kilometers, but that's under ideal conditions. In reality, it's more fuel-efficient on highways. When I drive long distances at a steady speed, I can easily surpass 900 kilometers, and I've even hit 950 kilometers once. But in city traffic with congestion, fuel consumption spikes, and I might need to refuel after just over 700 kilometers. To maximize range, I recommend avoiding aggressive acceleration and braking, using cruise control on highways, and regularly checking tire pressure—low tire pressure increases fuel consumption. Overall, this car has decent range and is very practical for long trips, but if you drive aggressively or face poor road conditions, you'll cover fewer kilometers.

Is Running a Yellow Light Considered a Traffic Violation? Will Points Be Deducted?

Running a yellow light is a traffic violation for motor vehicles, and the penalty standard is the same as running a red light. According to the latest revised "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," running a yellow light will result in a deduction of 6 points and a fine. Determination of Running a Yellow Light: According to Article 38 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law," when the green light is on, vehicles are permitted to proceed, but turning vehicles must not obstruct the passage of straight-moving vehicles or pedestrians. When the yellow light is on, vehicles that have already crossed the stop line may continue to proceed; vehicles that have not crossed the stop line should stop. Running a yellow light is considered a violation of traffic signal rules. Special Cases Where Running a Yellow Light Can Be Appealed: If a driver "accidentally" runs a yellow light due to obstructed vision caused by large vehicles such as buses, trucks, or trailers ahead, they can bring their driving records to the traffic police department to have the penalty revoked. In cases where emergency vehicles such as ambulances, fire trucks, police cars, or special vehicles are performing urgent tasks and require yielding at intersections, running a yellow light can also be appealed. The driver must bring their driving records for review, and the traffic police department will assess the situation based on the vehicle's route and intersection surveillance to potentially revoke the penalty. If the traffic signal malfunctions or conflicts arise and there is on-site police direction, drivers must follow the officer's instructions. Even if captured by electronic traffic cameras and a violation is recorded, they can obtain a traffic flow adjustment certificate from the traffic police department to resolve the issue.

Is the Terra's transmission AT or CVT?

The Terra is equipped with an AT automatic transmission. Below are the specific details about the AT transmission: 1. The AT transmission is an automatic transmission. Some AT transmissions have a manual mode, while others do not. The term "manual-automatic" refers to a type of automatic transmission that includes manual shifting capability, which describes the structural form of the transmission. 2. The AT transmission is a relatively common type of automatic transmission, containing many planetary gears inside that rely on these gears to change speed and torque. 3. The AT transmission is connected to the engine via a torque converter. This type of transmission offers smooth shifting and is known for its high reliability and durability.

How Many Points Are Deducted for Starting the Engine in Gear?

During the Subject 2 driving test, starting the engine in gear may result in a deduction of 10 or 50 points, or even a direct deduction of 100 points; in Subject 3, it directly deducts 100 points. Additional information: The drawbacks of starting the engine in gear include damaging the starter motor, harming the parking brake, causing wear and tear on car components, and increasing the risk of the vehicle lurching forward and causing an accident. For manual transmission cars, the gear should be in the neutral position when the car is stationary, except when on a steep slope where it may be necessary to keep the car in gear to prevent rolling backward. However, personal habits sometimes lead to leaving the car in gear when parked, so before starting the engine, always check if the car is in neutral. The car should be in neutral before starting. The sequence for starting and moving off: Step 1: Quickly lift the clutch pedal to the semi-engagement point, and when the car shows signs of shaking, stop lifting the left foot and hold the clutch steady. Step 2: Gently press the accelerator with the right foot until the RPM reaches around 1300-1500. Step 3: Then slowly release the clutch further with the left foot while simultaneously continuing to apply more throttle with the right foot (the faster you want to start, the more throttle you need to apply, but the clutch must also be released faster). Step 4: After fully releasing the clutch, the car continues to move forward. Shift to 2nd gear when the RPM reaches around 1800-2000, and then shift gears every time the RPM reaches 2000.

How to Determine if the Catalytic Converter is Missing?

Methods to determine if the catalytic converter is missing include: 1. Inspect whether the catalytic converter is still present by lifting the vehicle on a lift; 2. Pay attention to the exhaust sound—if the exhaust noise is significantly louder than usual when starting the engine, it is highly likely that the catalytic converter is missing; 3. Judge by smell—the catalyst inside the catalytic converter effectively reduces the odor and particulate matter in vehicle exhaust. If the exhaust smell becomes stronger and is accompanied by black smoke, it indicates the catalytic converter is missing. The catalytic converter transforms harmful gases such as CO and HC in vehicle exhaust into harmless carbon dioxide, water, and nitrogen through oxidation and reduction reactions.

What Cars Are Suitable for 5W30 Engine Oil?

5W30 engine oil is suitable for Japanese and Korean cars. The 'W' stands for winter, and the number before 'W' is 5. The smaller this number, the better the oil's fluidity at low temperatures, indicating a lower applicable minimum temperature. The number after 'W' is 30, referring to the oil's viscosity at 100 degrees Celsius. The higher this number, the higher the oil's viscosity, the stronger its resistance to high temperatures, and the better its high-temperature protection performance. Engine oil is a substance enhanced with additives in base oil, mainly containing anti-wear additives, detergents, dispersants, and multi-grade oil viscosity index improvers.
