It can still drive about 80 kilometers. Here is an introduction about the fuel gauge: 1. Introduction to the fuel gauge: The fuel gauge is used to indicate the amount of fuel remaining in the car's fuel tank. It can be a pointer or a digital display. The fuel gauge consists of a fuel level indicator with a voltage regulator and a fuel level sensor. 2. Notes on using the fuel gauge: (1) Do not wait until the warning light comes on to refuel: Because the fuel pump is located in the fuel tank and relies on fuel for cooling and lubrication, too little fuel will not be conducive to the normal operation of the fuel pump and will reduce its service life. (2) It is not recommended to fill the tank when refueling: Because gasoline expands when heated and evaporates into gasoline vapor in the high temperatures of summer, space is needed to accommodate this.

I've been driving the Yaris for several years, and each small segment on the fuel gauge roughly corresponds to about 5 liters of fuel. The actual distance you can drive depends entirely on your driving habits and road conditions. On the highway, if you maintain a steady speed with fuel consumption as low as 5 liters per 100 kilometers, one small segment can take you 80 to 100 kilometers. But if you're stuck in city traffic with constant stop-and-go, fuel consumption can jump to 8 liters, and one small segment might only get you 50 kilometers. I think it's best to calculate based on average conditions—assuming 6 liters per 100 kilometers, one small segment should give you around 60 kilometers. I recommend avoiding sudden acceleration and hard braking in daily driving, as it not only saves fuel but also enhances safety. Also, keep in mind that the fuel gauge isn't perfectly accurate. When it drops to one or two segments, go refuel to avoid stalling midway and causing delays. Each time you refuel, note the mileage and fuel amount—over time, you'll be able to estimate your actual range more accurately.

The Fastest Tips for Beginners to Learn Reversing a Car

Tips for beginners to reverse a car are introduced as follows: 1. Ensure safety: For beginners, the first step is to confirm whether the rear of the car is safe. If you are not sure about the safety while in the car, you can get off and check. Prepare to reverse only after confirming safety. If there is someone nearby, it's best to ask for help. 2. Correct posture: A good driving posture is crucial for safe driving, and the posture must be correct when reversing. When looking at the rear window, hold the upper part of the steering wheel with your left hand and turn your body to get a wide rearview angle. If you are reversing while looking sideways, hold the steering wheel with your right hand and slightly extend your head. 3. Slow speed: The speed when reversing must be well controlled, and the accelerator pedal must not be pressed. For beginners, the left foot can control the clutch to maintain a semi-clutch state, while the right foot is placed on the brake pedal, ready to brake at any time. 4. Determine distance: An important point for reversing is to confirm the distance, which should be judged through the left and right rearview mirrors and the rearview mirror respectively. If necessary, turn your head to observe the distance of obstacles.

How to Reapply for a Lost ETC Card?

ETC card reapplication method: The vehicle owner should bring their ID card, the original and a copy of the vehicle registration certificate to the bank counter to handle the card replacement or reissuance. The installation process for the ETC device is as follows: Upon receiving the device, first check if the ETC card and the electronic tag (OBU) are damaged. Press the anti-tamper button on the back of the OBU; a red light will briefly illuminate, and the OLED screen will display "Tag Invalid" or "Please Insert Card," indicating the device is functioning normally. Clean the front windshield, ensuring the surface is smooth, clean, and dry. Then, peel off the adhesive backing of the OBU and attach it to the installation position. Press firmly for 2-3 minutes to remove any air bubbles. Insert the ETC card with the front facing the driver and the back facing the windshield, ensuring the chip is inserted into the OBU device. ETC device activation method: Insert and remove the ETC card twice in succession until the electronic tag screen displays "Bluetooth On." If "Tag Invalid" appears when inserting and removing the card twice without attaching the electronic tag, it is a normal phenomenon and does not affect activation. Alternatively, press the button on the top of the electronic tag to enable Bluetooth directly. Turn on the phone's Bluetooth and open the corresponding mobile app (usually a download QR code is provided on the electronic tag), then navigate to the device activation interface. Click on "Device Connection" and wait patiently for the "Connection Successful" prompt. Once connected, upload a photo of the vehicle's front to complete the activation.

Does purchasing a used car count towards GDP?

Purchasing a used car does not count towards the GDP of the current year. Here is more relevant information: 1. GDP: GDP refers to the total market value of all final goods and services produced within a country during a certain period. It is important to note that GDP measures production within a certain period, not the value of newly sold goods. Used cars are generally not considered newly produced, meaning the value of a second-hand car was already included in GDP when the new car was originally sold. Therefore, purchasing a used car does not count towards the GDP of the current year. 2. Actual accounting: In actual accounting, the three manifestations of GDP are reflected through three calculation methods, namely the production approach, the income approach, and the expenditure approach. These three methods reflect GDP and its composition from different perspectives. The results calculated using the production approach, income approach, and expenditure approach are called production-based GDP, income-based GDP or distribution-based GDP, and expenditure-based GDP, respectively.

Can a new car without temporary license plates but with insurance be driven on the road?

A new car must have license plates to be driven on the road; without temporary license plates, it cannot be driven. The following are the details about new cars without temporary license plates: 1. Before obtaining the official license plates: New cars can be driven on the road with temporary license plates. The "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" clearly stipulates that vehicles must display license plates as required when driven on the road, and failure to do so will result in penalties. 2. Temporary license plates must be applied for according to regulations: Before obtaining the official license plates, temporary license plates must be applied for as required to drive on the road. Temporary license plates must be used within their validity period, and using them beyond the validity period will result in penalties. New cars cannot use temporary license plates for more than 15 days, and the owner should promptly apply for official license plates from the vehicle management authority. After expiration, the vehicle may face impoundment, a fine of 200 yuan, and a deduction of 3 points from the driver's license.

Where are the brake and accelerator pedals located in a manual transmission car?

In a manual transmission car, the pedals are arranged from left to right as follows: clutch, brake, and accelerator. Here are the detailed explanations: 1. Clutch function: The clutch pedal can be pressed or released as needed to temporarily disconnect or gradually engage the engine and transmission, thereby cutting off or transmitting the engine's power to the gearbox. 2. Brake function: Used to decelerate, either to reduce speed or bring the vehicle to a complete stop. 3. Accelerator function: Controls the throttle opening of the engine via a controller, regulating the air intake while the computer controls the fuel supply, thus managing the engine's speed.

What Causes the Low-Pressure Pipe of a Car's Air Conditioning to Freeze?

Reasons for the low-pressure pipe of a car's air conditioning freezing: 1. Faulty expansion valve: The low-pressure pipe of a car's air conditioning may freeze largely due to a faulty expansion valve, which fails to sense the real-time temperature of the low-pressure pipe. If the temperature is too low, the low-pressure pipe will inevitably freeze (the opening of the expansion valve cannot be adjusted lower). However, this issue is generally irreparable and requires replacing the expansion valve with a new one. 2. Failed evaporator temperature sensor: It could also be due to a failed evaporator temperature sensor. This component is designed to detect the surface temperature of the evaporator and then input the data to the automatic air conditioning control unit. When the temperature drops below 2°C, the air conditioning will stop operating to prevent frost or ice formation. Therefore, when the evaporator temperature sensor fails, it naturally cannot detect the corresponding temperature data, leading to the low-pressure pipe freezing. In this case, a new sensor needs to be installed.
