8 liters per 100 kilometers is relatively normal fuel consumption. Here are the details: Introduction: For a 2.0-liter engine, 8 liters per 100 kilometers can be considered low fuel consumption; but for a 1.5-liter or 1.6-liter engine, it's just normal and not particularly fuel-efficient. Brief explanation: What counts as normal fuel consumption depends on the vehicle model, fuel-saving technology, and specific driving conditions, as each car's fuel consumption varies. Generally, the larger the engine displacement, the higher the fuel consumption. For 100 kilometers of driving, compact cars typically consume 6-10 liters; midsize cars consume 8-12 liters; and large cars consume 12-18 liters.

What does M/S gear mean?

M gear is the manual mode of automatic transmission models, while S gear is the sport mode of automatic transmission models. The relevant introduction of automatic transmission cars is as follows: M gear is the manual mode in automatic transmission models. When shifted to M gear, the driver can manually control the upshift or downshift of the transmission without stepping on the clutch, and the engine will not stall, just like in automatic mode. M+ is for upshifting, and M- is for downshifting. M1/M2/M3 displayed on the dashboard represent the 1st/2nd/3rd gears in manual mode. The number of gears in M mode depends on the number of gears in the automatic transmission. For example, a 7-speed M gear has 7 gears. M gear is very useful in scenarios such as overtaking, going up and down slopes, driving on slippery roads due to rain or snow, taking curves, and high-speed driving. For example, using M- to downshift during overtaking can provide high torque, allowing the vehicle to accelerate quickly in a short time. In S gear (sport mode), the transmission can shift freely, but the shifting timing is delayed, keeping the engine at high RPM for a longer time. This allows the car to run at low gear and high RPM for an extended period, resulting in greater torque output and acceleration. Sport mode can increase the engine's power output in a short time, achieving instant acceleration.

What colors are available for the Yuexiang?

The Yuexiang is available in only three body colors: Snowfield White, Vibrant Red, and Sparkling Deep Sea Blue. Below is a brief introduction to the colors of the Yuexiang: 1. The white Yuexiang uses a mica pearl paint: it has excellent visual effects, and compared to ordinary white, it is significantly more upscale. It is the highest-grade paint color among the Yuexiang models, surpassing metallic paint, and it does not yellow over time. 2. The red Yuexiang uses a standard red solid paint: it is easy to repair, and after fixing various dents and scratches, it usually looks the same as the original car. However, it is not a metallic paint, so its resistance to corrosion and wear is relatively weaker, and it is not as dirt-resistant. 3. The blue Yuexiang uses an aluminum powder metallic paint: it is a metallic paint with good corrosion resistance, excellent color and luster, and is relatively dirt-resistant.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Volvo XC90 in liters?

Volvo XC90 has a fuel tank capacity of 71 liters, which is the officially announced data. Owners who have purchased the Volvo XC90 can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The recommended fuel grade for the Volvo XC90 is 95 octane, with a fuel consumption of 8.5 to 9 liters per 100 kilometers. A full tank of fuel can cover a distance of 789 to 1,071 kilometers. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. Generally, the fuel level can be observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when there are about 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the car manufacturer is from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit, and there is still some space from the safe limit to the tank opening. This space is reserved to allow the fuel to expand when the temperature rises without overflowing from the tank. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity.

What is the best engine oil model for Nissan Sylphy?

For Nissan Sylphy, the original 5W30 model engine oil is recommended. The 5W30 model oil has high viscosity, which is beneficial for forming an oil film on the engine to protect it. It offers excellent high-temperature protection and better sealing performance. Using 5W30 is sufficient to allow the engine to perform at its best. Methods for selecting engine oil: During maintenance, Nissan 4S shops usually provide three types of engine oil for Sylphy: conventional oil, synthetic oil, and full synthetic oil. The choice among these three mainly depends on the vehicle's driving environment. If the driving environment is good, such as frequent highway driving, conventional oil is sufficient. If the vehicle is often used in city traffic with frequent stops and starts, synthetic oil is recommended. Choose engine oil from well-known brands or large manufacturers: For example, Shell, Mobil, Castrol, Caltex, Total, BP, Valvoline, Fuchs, GS. Domestic well-known brands include Kunlun, Great Wall, and Longpan. Steps for changing engine oil: Open the engine hood (remove four clips). Open the oil cap, insert the oil extractor hose into the oil dipstick port to extract the oil. The extraction process takes about 15-20 minutes, and the used oil can be collected in a bucket. After the oil extraction is complete, use a wrench and socket to remove the old oil filter. Clean any excess oil from the contact area, then install the new oil filter. (Note: Usually, the oil filter is located on top, but for some models, it may need to be accessed from underneath the car.) After adding new oil, check the oil level using the dipstick. For the first check, wipe the dipstick clean with a tissue and reinsert it. The second time you pull out the dipstick, you can determine the oil level. The dipstick has upper and lower limit marks, and the oil level should be between these two marks for normal operation.
