BYD Qin can switch between gasoline and electric power by selecting different driving modes. The driving modes available for BYD include: Pure Electric + Economy, Pure Electric + Sport, Hybrid + Economy, and Hybrid + Sport. The second-generation DM technology equipped in BYD Qin features four working modes, namely EV+ECO, EV+SPORT, HEV+ECO, and HEV+SPORT. Below is an introduction to the HEV+ECO working mode: 1. In HEV+ECO mode, different power distributions are applied under various conditions to achieve optimal comprehensive economy, allowing for free switching. 2. When the starting speed is below 40 KM/H, the vehicle is driven purely by electric power. When the speed exceeds 40 KM/H and the engine is within the economical fuel consumption range (1500-3500 RPM), the vehicle is driven by fuel. 3. During acceleration or climbing, the engine speed gradually increases. The electric motor responds faster than the engine, reacting before the engine exits the economical fuel consumption range. When assisting the engine, the engine remains within the economical fuel consumption range.

Should the clutch be pressed all the time when reversing into the garage?

No. During the reversing process, when you need to stop, you should first press the clutch, followed by the brake. If you press the brake directly, it may cause the engine to stall and the car to jerk. When starting again, first release the brake, then slowly release the clutch. Here is an extended explanation: Clutch semi-engagement: This refers to the moment when the clutch friction disc is just pressed against the flywheel as you lift the clutch pedal, and then you stop lifting the clutch, keeping it in an unstable state of partial engagement. This ensures the engine keeps running while allowing some power to be transmitted in a slipping state. Avoid prolonged semi-engagement: Generally, brief semi-engagement during reversing is not a problem. For cars, semi-engagement for less than a minute has little impact. Frequent semi-engagement in traffic jams is also acceptable, as long as there are brief intervals—it's not a big issue as long as you don't keep pressing it continuously.

Does Modifying Ambient Lighting Affect Warranty?

Modifying the original ambient lighting does not affect the warranty. Using the original factory socket is sufficient, and there is no need to alter the wiring. Pros and Cons of Ambient Lighting: Modifying the interior ambient lighting allows for customized lighting effects based on personal preferences, enhancing the driving mood during nighttime. However, altering the car's interior ambient lighting involves modifying the vehicle's internal circuits, which have specific load and voltage requirements. Incorrect modifications can lead to significant safety hazards. The brightness of ambient lighting should not be too high; it should serve as an interior decoration and visual enhancement. Excessive brightness can interfere with driving visibility. What's Covered in Car Warranty: The warranty covers core components such as the engine, transmission, powertrain, and chassis, as well as wear-and-tear parts like tires, wheels, headlights, and brakes. Car warranty refers to the manufacturer's obligation to provide free repairs or replacement of faulty parts under normal usage conditions as specified.

Does Using Fuel-Saving Mode Harm the Car?

Using fuel-saving mode does not harm the car. When the fuel-saving mode is activated, the vehicle's fuel efficiency can be significantly improved while driving in urban road conditions. Fuel-Saving Mode: Fuel-saving mode, also known as ECO mode, means that the engine consumes less fuel in this setting. The fuel-saving effect of ECO mode is more noticeable when the vehicle frequently operates in congested urban traffic conditions, but there is no difference in fuel consumption compared to normal driving when traveling on suburban or highway sections. How Fuel-Saving Mode Works: The working principle of ECO mode involves comprehensively judging and analyzing factors that affect fuel consumption during vehicle movement, such as automatic transmission gear position, engine speed, vehicle speed, braking, and transmission oil temperature. The ECU control unit then calculates the optimal fuel quantity to supply the engine for operation, resulting in lower fuel consumption compared to normal driving mode.

Does a Small-Displacement Engine Consume More Fuel on Highways?

Small-displacement engines consume more fuel on highways. Reasons why small-displacement engines consume more fuel on highways: Small-displacement engines produce lower torque output. To maintain vehicle performance, they must operate at relatively high RPMs for extended periods, leading to increased fuel consumption. Introduction to small-displacement vehicles: By conventional definition, small-displacement vehicles typically refer to "micro cars" with engine displacements around 1.0 liters, achieving fuel consumption below 5 liters per 100 kilometers. Compared to vehicles with 1.4-liter engines, they save approximately 4 liters per 100 kilometers. For a typical family car driving 2,000 kilometers monthly, small-displacement vehicles can save nearly 1,000 liters of fuel annually. These vehicles are economical, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly. With increasing energy constraints and potential gasoline price hikes, the energy-saving benefits of small-displacement cars are undeniable facts.
