What is the difference between dmi and dm?

The differences between dmi and dm are as follows: 1. Different advantages: DM-i has multiple advantages that lead other hybrid technologies. Its "core concept" is to prioritize electricity and use fuel as a supplement. In terms of architecture, the DM-i super hybrid is based on a high-capacity battery and high-power motor, with the vehicle relying on the high-power motor for driving during operation. The main function of DM is to charge the battery, and it only directly drives when more power is needed, and even then, it works in coordination with the motor to reduce the load. 2. Different core technical components: The core component of the DM-i super hybrid technology is BYD's newly developed Xiaoyun plug-in hybrid dedicated engine, which comes in two different versions—the 1.5L engine is mainly used in Qin PLUS and Song PLUS. Unlike traditional hybrid technologies that rely on the characteristics of the engine, DM hybrid technology can more effectively reduce fuel consumption.

What is Tesla's wading capability?

Tesla can safely wade through water up to a maximum depth of approximately 138mm. Tesla's wading depth is determined by the height of the vehicle's chassis, which is the ground clearance listed in the model's parameter configuration table. Generally, the greater the ground clearance, the higher the chassis, and the higher the safety factor when driving through waterlogged roads. Therefore, in terms of safe wading depth, off-road vehicles and SUVs have obvious advantages. However, for most compact and small cars with low chassis, the position of the vehicle's air intake should be used as a benchmark when passing through waterlogged roads. If the air intake is below the water level while wading, water will be sucked into the engine's cylinders. Since water cannot be compressed like air, it will cause severe damage to the engine's mechanical components (such as connecting rods, pistons, crankshafts, etc.). Therefore, the wading depth must not exceed the height of the engine's air intake. The height of the air intake, and thus the maximum wading depth, can also be increased by installing a snorkel. If wading is unavoidable, the following safe and correct operations should be performed: Before wading, always turn off the auto start-stop function to prevent the vehicle from automatically restarting after stalling in water, which could cause severe engine damage due to water intake. Assess the underwater road conditions based on the passage of vehicles ahead and choose an appropriate entry point. Observe the path taken by other vehicles and follow their tracks at low speed, avoiding sudden acceleration or deceleration. For roads prone to water accumulation, observe warning water level markers, trees, or other vehicles' wheels and doors as reference points to estimate water depth before deciding whether to proceed. Know your vehicle's safe wading depth. If the water depth exceeds half the tire height or the engine's air intake, do not proceed and choose an alternative route instead.

Which company's engine is used in the Baojun 310?

The Baojun 310 uses an engine from the General Motors Group. Relevant information about automotive engines is as follows: Introduction to Automotive Engines: An automotive engine is the power-generating device for a vehicle, serving as the heart of the car and determining its power, fuel efficiency, stability, and environmental performance. Depending on the power source, automotive engines can be categorized into diesel engines, gasoline engines, electric vehicle motors, and hybrid systems, among others. Maintenance and Repair Tips for Automotive Engines: Regularly change the engine oil and oil filter. As oil passes through the fine pores of the oil filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged, oil cannot flow smoothly through it, which may cause the filter to burst or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass the filter and carry contaminants back to the lubrication areas. This accelerates engine wear and increases internal contamination. Maintain good crankcase ventilation. Airborne contaminants can accumulate around the PCV valve, potentially clogging it. If the PCV valve is blocked, polluted gases can flow backward into the air filter, contaminating the filter element and reducing its filtration efficiency. This leads to dirtier air-fuel mixtures entering the engine, further polluting the crankcase, increasing fuel consumption, accelerating engine wear, and even damaging the engine. Therefore, regular PCV maintenance is essential to remove contaminants around the valve. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls. These mix with metal particles from component wear, forming sludge. Small amounts remain suspended in the oil, while larger amounts precipitate, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Additionally, oil oxidizes at high temperatures, forming varnish and carbon deposits that stick to the pistons, increasing fuel consumption and reducing power output. In severe cases, piston rings can seize, leading to cylinder scoring. Therefore, regularly use BG105 (a high-efficiency rapid cleaning agent for the lubrication system) to clean the crankcase and maintain internal cleanliness. Regularly clean the fuel system. As fuel flows through the fuel lines to the combustion chamber, it inevitably forms gums and carbon deposits, which accumulate in the fuel passages, carburetor, fuel injectors, and combustion chamber. These deposits interfere with fuel flow, disrupt the air-fuel ratio, and impair fuel atomization, causing engine issues such as hesitation, knocking, unstable idle, and poor acceleration. Using BG208 (a powerful high-efficiency cleaning agent for the fuel system) to clean the fuel system and regularly using BG202 to control carbon deposit formation can keep the engine in optimal condition. Traditional disassembly cleaning methods may affect engine stability due to assembly errors. Using BG208 allows for cleaning the fuel tank, fuel lines, injectors, combustion chamber, and exhaust system without disassembly, removing sludge and carbon deposits while repairing friction wear caused during operation. Regularly maintain the radiator. Rust and scale in the engine radiator are common issues. These deposits restrict coolant flow, reduce cooling efficiency, and can lead to engine overheating or damage. Coolant oxidation also forms acidic substances that corrode the radiator's metal components, causing leaks. Regularly using BG540 (a powerful high-efficiency radiator cleaner) to remove rust and scale ensures proper engine operation and extends the lifespan of both the radiator and the engine. For fuel system maintenance and cleaning, due to the precision of the fuel distribution system, avoid arbitrary disassembly. Use an engine no-disassembly cleaner for fuel system cleaning, as it effectively cleans the system without disassembly, protecting the engine's fuel system while ensuring thorough cleaning.

What is the Online Study for Point Deduction Reduction on Driver's License?

According to Article 5 of the Notice issued by the Ministry of Public Security on April 1, 2022, regarding the "Work Regulations on Reducing Points for Road Traffic Safety Violations through Accepting Traffic Safety Education (Trial)" (Public Transport Management [2020] No. 14): Motor vehicle drivers who apply to participate in traffic safety education to reduce points for traffic violations must participate in corresponding road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge learning, examinations, or traffic safety public welfare activities according to their highest permitted driving license type and meet the relevant requirements to apply for point reduction. The "Study for Point Deduction Reduction" is a measure for drivers holding a driver's license who have been penalized with points due to traffic violations. After participating in online traffic safety education and passing the examination, their points can be reduced. This is a convenient traffic management measure uniformly deployed by the Traffic Management Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security. Function: The "Study for Point Deduction Reduction" reduces existing points on the driver's license rather than adding points or replacing penalty points. The points obtained through free study are used to clear the penalty records. For example, if a driver is penalized with 6 points, passing the point reduction examination can clear these 6 points, starting fresh. Regulations: The number of points that can be deducted after point reduction depends on how many points the driver had before the study, but the cumulative points cannot exceed 11. Whether or not the driver participates in point reduction, the driver's license only has 12 points. The point reduction only reduces existing points and does not increase the total points to 18. Specific considerations are as follows: Applicable Individuals: Motor vehicle drivers holding a driver's license from the People's Republic of China, regardless of the permitted driving license type or whether they are commercial vehicle drivers, can participate in point reduction. They must participate in corresponding road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge learning and examinations according to their highest permitted driving license type. Specific Rules: Motor vehicle drivers participating in online road traffic laws, regulations, and related content learning must study continuously for 5 minutes each time, accumulating 30 minutes of study within 3 days. They can then register for an examination within 7 days. Passing the examination will reduce 1 point. Drivers can also attend on-site learning, with each session lasting no less than 1 hour. After completing the required study hours, they can apply for an examination. Passing the examination will reduce 2 points. Drivers can also participate in offline safety public welfare activities, with each session lasting 1 hour, reducing 1 point per session. Accumulating 30 minutes of study within 3 days, with each study session lasting no less than 5 minutes, and passing the examination can reduce 1 point. The maximum point reduction in one scoring cycle is 6 points. Non-acceptance Situations: The following situations will not be accepted: In the previous scoring cycle, the driver had two or more instances of full-point penalties. Within a 3-point cycle, the driver was involved in hit-and-run accidents, drunk driving, or the use of forged or altered documents or license plates. The driver's license is in the probation period or has not been reviewed on time. The driver has unprocessed traffic violation records. The driver has a vehicle with an expired safety technical inspection or one that has not been deregistered as required. The driver has already reduced the maximum of 6 points in the current cycle.
