Taking the 2020 Baojun e100 as an example, it is a microcar with body dimensions of 2488mm in length, 1506mm in width, and 1670mm in height, with a wheelbase of 1600mm and a curb weight of 849kg.

To open the front hood of the Baojun E100, I must say this operation is actually quite simple and suitable for beginners to try. Typically, you first sit in the driver's seat, bend down near the left foot pedal below the steering wheel, and you'll see a plastic handle. Give it a firm pull, and you'll hear a click, indicating the hood is unlocked. Then, step out to the front of the car, feel along the gap of the hood for a second small lever or button. Press or slide it to fully release the hood. Finally, lift the hood steadily with both hands, ensuring the support rod is securely fixed. The E100 is an electric model, so the engine compartment houses the battery and controller. Before starting, it's best to check if the coolant level is normal to avoid spills. Regularly opening the hood like this can help clean dust buildup and extend component lifespan. If it gets stuck, don’t force it—consult a professional technician to diagnose the issue first.
