Most standard family sedans have fuel tank capacities ranging between 50 to 60 liters, with some luxury models featuring larger tanks. Key considerations include: 1. Prolonged use of low-quality gasoline increases carbon deposits in the engine: Carbon buildup significantly harms engine performance, affecting both power output and fuel efficiency. 2. Long-term use of substandard fuel damages the catalytic converter: Always select the correct octane rating for your vehicle when refueling. Higher octane fuels contain more stable hydrocarbons with superior anti-knock properties.

I'm a car enthusiast. The fuel tank capacity of sedans generally ranges between 40 to 70 liters, depending on the model. Compact cars like the Toyota Corolla have around 45 liters, midsize sedans such as the Honda Accord typically hold 50 to 55 liters, and luxury cars like the Audi A6 may have around 65 liters. The size of the fuel tank directly affects the driving range. For example, with an average fuel consumption of 7 liters per 100 kilometers, a 50-liter tank can cover approximately 700 kilometers. When choosing a vehicle, it's important to consider both the body size and design. Modern cars emphasize safety standards, and fuel tanks are usually placed under the rear seats to minimize risks. For long-distance driving, a larger tank is more practical, but the added weight can affect fuel efficiency. I personally recommend checking the owner's manual before purchasing to avoid issues like overloading or frequent refueling.

How often should a new 5-seater car undergo inspection?

For family-use small passenger vehicles, new cars require an inspection every 6 years, and you only need to collect the inspection certificate from the vehicle management office every 2 years. After 6 years up to 15 years, it's once a year. After 15 years, it's every 6 months. For commercial passenger vehicles, inspections are required once a year within the first 5 years; after 5 years, every 6 months. Vehicle inspection, commonly referred to as car inspection, is stipulated in the "Road Traffic Safety Law Implementation Regulations": Article 16: Motor vehicles shall undergo safety technical inspections according to the following periods from the date of registration: 1. Commercial passenger vehicles: once a year within the first 5 years; after 5 years, every 6 months; 2. Trucks and large/medium non-commercial passenger vehicles: once a year within the first 10 years; after 10 years, every 6 months; 3. Small and mini non-commercial passenger vehicles: once every 2 years within the first 6 years; after 6 years, once a year; after 15 years, every 6 months; 4. Motorcycles: once every 2 years within the first 4 years; after 4 years, once a year; 5. Tractors and other motor vehicles: once a year. Commercial motor vehicles that pass the safety technical inspection within the stipulated period do not need to repeat the inspection. 6. Vehicles beyond the scrapping age cannot be transferred (sold or bought), but can continue to be used; for transactions, you can first apply for the vehicle's scrapping certificate (to deregister its records) at the vehicle management office, then proceed with the transaction.

What maintenance is required for a car that has traveled 30,000 kilometers?

The maintenance items required for a car that has traveled 30,000 kilometers include changing the engine oil, oil filter, air filter, fuel filter, cleaning the throttle body, and replacing the spark plugs. Some 4S shops may recommend additional maintenance items, which car owners can consider and decide based on actual conditions. Below is expanded knowledge on car maintenance: 1. The main maintenance items for a car include changing the engine oil, oil filter, transmission fluid, spark plugs, cabin air filter, air filter, and brake fluid. However, not all these items need to be replaced during every maintenance session, as it depends on their service life. Additionally, beyond these, maintenance also involves the inspection and upkeep of dozens of items across multiple systems, including the engine, transmission, air conditioning system, steering system, braking system, suspension, body, and tires. 2. Besides regular maintenance at 4S shops, it's also important to develop daily maintenance habits. Daily maintenance includes tasks before driving, during driving, and after parking. In fact, daily maintenance is quite simple and can be summarized as: cleaning, tightening, checking, and replenishing. Setting aside a little time each week for daily maintenance can keep the car in like-new condition while also helping you understand the technical condition of various parts of the vehicle, thereby avoiding mechanical failures and traffic accidents.

Where is the Hong D license plate from?

Hong D is not a legally issued license plate by vehicle management authorities; it is a privately manufactured fake plate, and "Hong" is not the abbreviation of any province in China. Additional Information: 1. Incident Background: Recently, traffic police in Kunshan intercepted an electric vehicle at night on a certain road section suspected of using a fake Hong D·50777 license plate. Additionally, the driver was unlicensed. According to relevant regulations, no individual or unit is permitted to produce shield-like identifiers resembling license plates. This electric vehicle was illegally assembled, and driving such a vehicle on the road will result in fines, seizure, and mandatory scrapping of the vehicle. The driver will also face additional fines and detention for driving without a license. 2. A license plate number is a legal mark registered by statutory authorities, permitting a motor vehicle to operate on the road. It serves as the identification number for the vehicle and is typically displayed in specific locations on the vehicle. License plates, also known as vehicle registration plates, are plates affixed to the front and rear of a vehicle, usually made of aluminum, plastic, or stickers, displaying the vehicle's registration number, registration region, or other basic information.

Can a car with auto start-stop use a regular battery?

No, a regular battery cannot handle multiple high-current discharges in a short period of time. Repeated starts and high-current discharges will significantly shorten its lifespan, causing the battery capacity to drop rapidly. It won't be long before the battery needs replacement. Additionally, once the battery capacity decreases, the auto start-stop function will fail, and the vehicle won't shut down, rendering the feature unusable. Additional Information: 1. Auto start-stop car batteries do indeed have larger capacities, which is one reason for their higher price. They are not ordinary lead-acid batteries but use absorbent glass mat (AGM) technology, ensuring the electrolyte is absorbed around the plates. 2. Auto start-stop batteries offer superior performance, such as supporting instant high-current discharge, repeated high-current discharges in short intervals, and much higher cyclic charging capability compared to regular batteries. They also have longer lifespans and better stability. In short, their larger capacity and overall better performance justify the higher price.

How to Distinguish Start-Stop Batteries?

Methods to distinguish start-stop batteries: The original car battery is marked with words such as ST, N55, Q85, S95, ISS, EFB, AGM, VRLA-BATTERY, start/stop, or idle stop system vehicle. If any of these markings are present, it is a start-stop battery. Below is an extended introduction to start-stop batteries: 1. Car batteries with start-stop functionality are different from ordinary car batteries. Start-stop batteries have a larger capacity and can charge and discharge quickly. Ordinary lead-acid batteries cannot discharge large currents multiple times in a short period, and their separators do not allow ions to pass through quickly. 2. Start-stop batteries are manufactured using stamping processes, which require higher technical standards and have higher technical content, making them more expensive.
