From the date of registration, inspections are required once every 2 years within the first 6 years, once every year after exceeding 6 years, and once every 6 months after exceeding 15 years. Below is relevant information: Introduction to commercial-to-private conversion: Commercial-to-private conversion refers to the transformation of commercial vehicles into private vehicles. Typically, commercial-to-private vehicles mainly refer to decommissioned taxis converted to local license plates. After conversion to local plates, the service life remains 8 years, with mandatory scrapping 8 years from the date of manufacture, no longer requiring annual inspections, and no extension of the scrapping period. Note: Taxi-to-private and commercial-to-private are completely different concepts under the non-commercial category. If a car was registered in 1999 as non-commercial, its mandatory scrapping deadline would be 2099, effectively an indefinite period. However, if it's a taxi-to-private conversion, its mandatory scrapping deadline would be 2007. The scrapping period for taxi-to-private vehicles is the same as that for taxi passenger vehicles, meaning even if a taxi was used for just one day, it must be scrapped after 8 years.

What is the minimum ground clearance of the Toyota Camry?

The minimum ground clearance of the Camry is 150mm. Here is an introduction to minimum ground clearance: 1. Minimum ground clearance refers to the distance between the lowest point of the car (excluding the wheels) and the supporting surface when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary. It is used to characterize the car's ability to pass over obstacles such as stones and tree stumps without collision; 2. The greater the minimum ground clearance, the stronger the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven ground, but the higher center of gravity will reduce vehicle stability; 3. The smaller the minimum ground clearance, the weaker the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven ground, but the lower center of gravity can increase vehicle stability.

How to Activate Cruise Control on the Equinox?

To use the cruise control on the Equinox, follow these steps: The cruise control only works when the vehicle speed exceeds 40 km/h. On the left side of the steering wheel, there are "+" and "-" buttons for acceleration and deceleration. Press the switch to activate the system. Pushing it upward increases speed, while pushing it downward decreases speed. After applying the brakes and releasing them, the vehicle will automatically reach the preset speed. Introduction to the cruise control system: The Cruise Control System (abbreviated as CCS) maintains the set speed without requiring the driver to press the accelerator pedal, allowing the vehicle to travel at a constant speed. During long highway drives, this feature reduces driver fatigue by eliminating the need to control the accelerator pedal and minimizes unnecessary speed fluctuations, thereby improving fuel efficiency.
