The BYD F3 weighs 1200 kilograms. Below is a relevant introduction about the BYD F3: Exterior: From the F3 model itself, one can see traces of the Toyota Corolla's front face, the Honda Fit's rear, and the Toyota Vios' waistline. Initially, BYD launched four versions of the F3, categorized into Standard, Comfort, Premium, and Flagship models. The exterior is stylish and elegant, and although there are signs of imitation, it still attracted the attention of many consumers. Interior: The overall interior design is simple and elegant, with a fresh light-colored interior. The configuration is comprehensive and abundant, with high-end models featuring leather seats and reverse radar receiving praise from users. The air conditioning performs well, but the craftsmanship and materials are average, with some gaps in certain areas. The 2010 models saw some reductions in features, and some users reported issues with noise from the dashboard.

I've driven the older BYD F3 for several years and am quite familiar with it. It's a compact sedan, with slight weight variations between different versions. According to the manual, the manual transmission models weigh approximately between 1,170 kg to 1,210 kg, while automatic versions usually add another 20 to 30 kg. Vehicle weight significantly affects fuel consumption. The F3 is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, and the manual transmission version typically achieves a combined fuel consumption of around 7L/100km in real-world driving. The weight increase is quite noticeable when adding passengers or loading the trunk, especially for this type of family sedan. Once when I helped a friend move, with both the rear seats and trunk fully loaded, I clearly felt the car struggling more during acceleration.

Should the ETC chip face outward or inward?

Depending on the device model, the ETC chip may face inward or outward. A straightforward way to determine the correct orientation is to insert the card. If the balance is correctly displayed on the ETC device's screen, then the orientation is correct. The ETC installation process 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 glass surface is smooth, clean, and dry. Then, peel off the adhesive backing of the OBU and attach it to the installation position. Press firmly with your hand for 2-3 minutes to remove any air bubbles. Insert the ETC card with the front side facing the driver and the back side facing the windshield. The chip should be inserted into the OBU device. ETC activation method: Insert and remove the ETC card twice consecutively until the electronic tag screen displays "Bluetooth On." If inserting and removing the card twice without attaching the electronic tag shows "Tag Invalid," this is normal and does not affect activation. Alternatively, you can press the button on the top of the electronic tag to enable Bluetooth directly. Turn on your phone's Bluetooth and open the corresponding mobile app (usually, a download QR code is provided on the electronic tag). Navigate to the device activation interface. Click "Connect Device" and wait patiently for the "Connection Successful" prompt. Once connected, upload a photo of the vehicle's front to complete the activation.

What Does Full Compensation for Flood-Damaged Vehicles Mean?

Full compensation for flood-damaged vehicles refers to the insurance company providing full coverage for the vehicle after it has been submerged in water. Once a car is flooded, the key role in auto insurance is played by the vehicle damage insurance, but the compensation under vehicle damage insurance has its limits. The insurer is responsible for compensating the insured for the loss of the insured motor vehicle caused by collision, overturning, fire, explosion, falling objects, collapse, heavy rain, flood, mudslide, landslide, etc., during the use of the insured motor vehicle, in accordance with the terms of the insurance contract. Vehicle flooding can be categorized into the following levels: Water just reaches the vehicle chassis, the exhaust pipe, fuel tank, and carbon canister may get waterlogged, and the vehicle floor may become damp, but the likelihood of significant water ingress is low, and the impact on the vehicle's electrical equipment is minimal. Water reaches halfway up the wheels. At this point, due to the vehicle's incomplete sealing, water begins to enter the interior. For lower-profile sedans, the water level inside the vehicle can affect the seat adjustment motors and heating/ventilation electrical components. Water almost completely submerges the tires. At this stage, the water level inside the vehicle will fully submerge the seat cushions and center console area, affecting a large number of electrical components. Water reaches the engine hood. At this point, the water level inside the vehicle rises to the dashboard, and the headlights and engine intake pipes in the engine compartment begin to take in water. Water completely submerges the engine hood. At this stage, almost all the vehicle's electrical equipment will be affected by the water. Water submerges the roof. The vehicle's ceiling and sunroof module will be affected, and no interior component will be spared.

Can a Car Be Equipped with 32,000 Lumen Headlights?

Car cannot be equipped with 32,000 lumen headlights, as 32,000 lumens, when converted based on xenon headlights, would equate to 320 watts, exceeding the regulated power range of 35W to 60W. Below are the lumen ranges for headlights and the types of car headlights: Headlight Lumen Ranges: Headlights, commonly known as headlamps, are installed on both sides of the front of a car to illuminate the road ahead. They can be categorized into two-lamp and four-lamp systems. In a four-lamp system where headlights are installed side by side, the outer pair should be dual-beam lamps for both low and high beams, while the inner pair should be single-beam lamps for high beams only. High beams range from 35 to 60W, with lumens from 3,400 to 5,900. Low beams range from 35 to 55W, with lumens from 3,400 to 5,400. Types of Car Headlights: Halogen headlights, also known as tungsten halogen headlights, are a variant of incandescent lamps and are widely used in automotive lighting. Xenon headlights, a type of gas discharge lamp, offer three times the brightness of halogen bulbs while consuming only two-thirds of the energy. Xenon headlights emit light similar to daylight, providing better visibility for drivers. However, in foggy conditions, xenon headlights have slightly poorer penetration compared to the yellowish light of halogen headlights. LED headlights, or light-emitting diodes, are now a key component of vehicle tail lights, high-mounted brake lights, and daytime running lights. Some vehicles also use LED light sources for their headlights. Laser headlights, considered the logical next step after LED headlights, offer better focus, higher energy efficiency, and longer lifespan than LED headlights.
