Driving below 2000 RPM is fuel-efficient. Here is a partial introduction about engine oil: 1. Composition: Engine oil consists of base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its fundamental properties, while additives are an essential part of lubricating oil. 2. Types of Engine Oil: The winter oil grades under the SAE lubricant viscosity classification are: 0W, 5W, 10W, 15W, etc. The symbol 'W' stands for winter, and the smaller the number before 'W', the lower the low-temperature viscosity, making it suitable for lower minimum temperatures. The summer oil grades under the SAE lubricant viscosity classification are: 20, 30, 40, 50. The larger the number, the higher the viscosity, making it suitable for higher maximum temperatures. The all-season oil grades under the SAE lubricant viscosity classification are: 5W-20, 5W-30, 5W-40, 5W-50, 10W-20, etc.

What are the battery replacement conditions for the BYD Tang?

BYD Tang uses lithium iron phosphate batteries with a warranty policy of 8 years or 150,000 kilometers, and the battery cells are covered by a lifetime warranty. If the battery has degraded to a certain extent before reaching the replacement cycle, it will be replaced for free. However, if the battery needs to be replaced due to non-natural factors or human damage, it will not be replaced for free. The battery capacity of the Tang has been increased to 18 kWh, providing a pure electric range of 85 kilometers. The cycle life of lead-acid batteries is around 300 times, with a maximum of 500 times, while lithium iron phosphate power batteries can achieve over 2,000 cycles. With standard charging (5-hour rate), they can reach 2,000 cycles. Lead-acid batteries of the same quality typically last "new for half a year, old for half a year, and maintained for another half a year," totaling about 1 to 1.5 years at most. In contrast, lithium iron phosphate batteries used under the same conditions have a theoretical lifespan of 7 to 8 years. Overall, the performance-to-price ratio is theoretically more than four times that of lead-acid batteries.

Can an Automatic Transmission Be Converted to a Manual Transmission?

An automatic transmission cannot be converted to a manual transmission. The differences between automatic and manual transmission vehicles are: 1. Different transmissions: Automatic transmission vehicles use an automatic gearbox, while manual transmission vehicles use a manual gearbox. 2. Different driving methods: Automatic transmission vehicles can automatically switch to the required gear, while manual transmission vehicles require manual gear shifting. An automatic transmission means the driver does not need to manually shift gears; the vehicle will automatically select the appropriate gear based on driving speed and traffic conditions. A manual transmission refers to manually moving the gear lever to change the gear meshing device inside the transmission, altering the gear ratio to achieve speed change.

Why Are High-View Vehicles Not Practical?

High-view vehicles are not practical due to their low configurations and incomplete functionality. Here is a partial introduction about automotive power: Calculation formula: Power P = Speed V * Traction Force F. Therefore, the product of F and V determines the vehicle's power. The vehicle's power determines its speed, while torque determines its acceleration. Rated power: Rated power refers to the power when an electrical appliance operates normally. Its value is the rated voltage of the appliance multiplied by the rated current. If the actual power of the appliance is greater than the rated power, the appliance may be damaged; if the actual power is less than the rated power. Relationship between power and speed: Under normal operating conditions, the output power of a power device or the input power of an energy-consuming device. It is often measured in "kilowatts." It also refers to the power that a machine produced in a factory can achieve during normal operation. That is, the commonly referred power of a machine. The rated power of a machine is constant, P=Fv, so the force generated by the machine is inversely proportional to its operating speed. For example, when a car is driving on a flat asphalt road, the required traction force F is smaller, allowing for higher speeds; when the road is uneven or going uphill, a larger traction force is required, necessitating a switch to lower speeds.

Which gear should be used when driving at 30 mph?

Start the car in 1st gear below 10 mph, and shift to 2nd gear once moving. When the speed exceeds 20 mph in 2nd gear, shift to 3rd gear. 3rd gear is suitable for speeds above 20 mph but below 40 mph, while 4th gear requires reaching 40 mph. 5th gear is for high-speed driving, typically above 60 mph. Shifting gears is not solely based on speed but rather on engine RPM. Generally, when in 4th gear, if the engine RPM exceeds 2000, you can shift to 5th gear. If the engine sounds sluggish, it indicates that the engine is struggling to move the car, and you should downshift to increase engine torque. Conversely, if the engine is whining, you should upshift to reduce engine torque at the same speed. For cars with a displacement of 1.3 liters or more, during acceleration, it is best to shift to 5th gear at a speed of 70–75 km/h. Shifting at this speed ensures that the engine RPM remains between 2000–3000 RPM before and after shifting, balancing both power and fuel efficiency. Shifting below this RPM significantly affects performance due to the power-RPM characteristics of modern car engines.
