7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission belongs to automatic transmission. Here are the specific introductions to dry and wet automotive transmissions: 1. Difference: The working principles of dry and wet automotive transmissions are basically the same, both utilizing two clutches for alternating operation. The difference lies in the medium connecting the driving disc and the driven disc. Wet dual-clutch transmissions mainly rely on oil, while dry dual-clutch transmissions primarily depend on air. 2. Basic structure: The two sets of clutch plates in a wet clutch are located in a sealed oil chamber, where the transmission oil absorbs heat by soaking the clutch plates. In contrast, the friction plates of a dry clutch do not have a sealed oil chamber and require air cooling for heat dissipation.

What is the W6 car?

W6 is a pure electric vehicle from WM Motor. Below is a brief introduction about WM Motor: 1. Technology: It is equipped with the AVP unmanned autonomous parking system jointly developed by WM Motor and Baidu Apollo, enabling autonomous driving in specific scenarios. 2. Exterior: The WM W6 continues the design language of the EVOLVE concept car. The front features a closed grille, complemented by vertical daytime running lights below the headlights, giving it an overall refined look. Additionally, the window area between the C and D pillars on the side of the WM W6 is more squared compared to other WM models, paired with the currently popular hidden door handles and a full-width taillight, enhancing the vehicle's recognizability. 3. Power: The WM W6 adopts a combination of a permanent magnet synchronous motor and a ternary lithium battery, delivering a maximum power of 160kW and a maximum torque of 225Nm. It offers two NEDC range options: 520km and 620km. Notably, the 620km range significantly surpasses that of the EX5-Z and EX6-Plus.

What does 'one oil' mean?

A 'one oil' represents one liter of oil. Generally, when people say 'a few oils,' it refers to the number of liters of oil consumed by a car per 100 kilometers. Below is a detailed introduction to fuel consumption-related content: 1. Fuel consumption: The fuel consumption of large-displacement motorcycles is as high as that of household cars. 2. Comparison: A fuel consumption of 6 liters per 100 kilometers, the same route, a 1.6L motorcycle, the Octavia's fuel consumption is 7 liters. Sports cars usually have much larger throttle inputs than street cars, consuming more fuel, and their fuel consumption is also relatively high. When a liter-class sports car accelerates wildly or runs at high speeds, its fuel consumption is comparable to the comprehensive fuel consumption of a 3.0L car. 3. Fuel: Motorcycles and most cars use gasoline, so the energy from the fuel is the same. The relatively higher fuel consumption of motorcycles comes from high wind resistance, compact structures that leave no room for fuel-saving technologies, and the design philosophy of high RPMs to extract power.

What are the button functions of the 2021 Sagitar?

Here are the detailed introductions of the button functions for the 2021 Sagitar: 1. SYNC: Dual-zone air conditioning switch. Models equipped with this feature allow separate temperature control for the driver and front passenger. 2. Electronic Stability Program (ESP): Enabled by default. Manual deactivation is generally not recommended. This system effectively prevents vehicle loss of control during extreme driving conditions. 3. Hazard Warning Lights: Serves as a warning function, used in emergencies or special situations. 4. Volume Control Buttons: In addition to normal rotary knob volume adjustment, pushing left or right can switch tracks. 5. Parking Radar/Image: Alerts about surrounding obstacles through images and warning sounds. 6. Auto Hold: At traffic lights, the vehicle won't roll away when releasing the brake pedal. The wheels unlock when pressing the accelerator pedal, allowing the vehicle to proceed.

How is a Sedan Considered to be Wading?

Driving on low-lying, waterlogged roads or passing through water is considered wading. Steps for wading: 1. Observe road conditions: Before driving through water, pay attention to the depth, direction, and speed of the water, and determine if there are obstacles such as mud or quicksand underwater. Before wading, also wrap the distributor and high-voltage wires with plastic sheets. 2. Maintain stable power: For hard surfaces, engage a low gear and slowly enter the water. While driving, keep the steering wheel steady and maintain a steady throttle to ensure the car has sufficient and stable power to pass through in one go. Avoid stopping, shifting gears, or making sharp turns midway. 3. Check the electrical system: Dry any wet parts and reinstall the fan belt. Check if any gearboxes have been submerged, if there are any debris blocking the radiator fins, if the tires are damaged, or if there are any water plants tangled under the chassis. Clean the vehicle promptly to restore braking effectiveness.

What are the functions of the center console in the 2009 Buick Regal?

Here are the functions of the center console in the 2009 Buick Regal: 1. Electronic Stability Program (ESP): The system is enabled by default and is not recommended to be turned off unless on slippery roads such as during rain or snow. 2. Parking Radar/Image: This button activates the panoramic image and radar function, providing audible and visual feedback to help the driver detect surrounding obstacles. 3. Forward Collision Mitigation (FCM): When the vehicle approaches an unsafe distance from the car ahead, the system will prompt braking and emit a warning sound. If the driver continues to drive, the system will forcibly stop the vehicle. 4. Auto Start-Stop: After activation, the engine will temporarily shut off. Once the foot leaves the brake pedal, the engine restarts. 5. Internal/External Air Circulation: Internal circulation means the air inside the car is self-contained, while external circulation allows air exchange between the inside and outside of the car. Generally, internal circulation is used in congested traffic or when the outside air quality is poor. On highways, switch to external circulation periodically to ensure fresh air and prevent health issues.

What to Do When the Car Makes Abnormal Noise and Fails to Start?

Solutions for abnormal noise during car startup and failure to start are as follows: 1. Check the battery status: Difficulty in starting the car is mostly caused by a weak battery or an expired battery lifespan. When the battery is low on power, the car's starting speed is weak, and you may only hear a clicking sound. Upon further attempts, the clicking sound may gradually turn into a hissing sound. Avoid continuous ignition attempts to prevent the battery from being completely drained. 2. Use the appropriate engine oil: As the temperature drops, the viscosity of the engine oil increases, making it harder for the oil to flow, which in turn increases engine resistance. If starting is difficult, check whether the engine oil meets the required specifications. 3. Replace the spark plugs in time: After years of use, spark plugs are prone to issues such as carbon buildup, leakage, excessive gap, and erosion, which can make it difficult to start the car, whether cold or even when the engine is warm. Often, multiple ignition attempts are needed, so timely replacement is necessary.
