Fuel is not the same as gasoline. Here are the characteristics of gasoline: 1. Operability: The energy of a car's internal combustion engine is converted from thermal energy to mechanical energy through ignition to power the vehicle. 2. Anti-knock performance: Gasoline has the ability to resist knocking combustion during driving. The anti-knock performance of gasoline is reflected by its octane rating—the higher the octane rating, the better the anti-knock performance. 3. Stability: Gasoline is highly stable under natural conditions and does not corrode equipment such as cylinders during storage and transportation. Poor atomization and incomplete combustion of oil can produce large amounts of black smoke. Fuel additives can effectively reduce combustion activation energy, improve atomization efficiency, and ensure that even non-combustible colloids in the oil are fully burned, thereby eliminating black smoke and reducing emissions.

What does the HOLD button in a car mean?

Car HOLD button refers to the automatic parking function, usually marked as AUTOHOLD on the car. Automatic parking is currently a very popular practical function that can replace the handbrake during temporary stops. Generally, only models equipped with electronic handbrakes will have the automatic parking system. Automatic parking can release the feet and relieve the fatigue caused by stepping on the brake for a long time when parking. Usually, automatic parking is also used in conjunction with the automatic start-stop function. How to use the car's HOLD function: When the driver has fastened the seat belt and the driver's side door is closed, the engine is running, press the automatic parking switch, and the automatic parking function changes from off to standby state. When the brake pedal is pressed to a certain depth and the vehicle has completely stopped, the automatic parking function changes from standby to parking state. When the automatic parking is in the parking state, after shifting to the corresponding forward gear or reverse gear, stepping on the accelerator pedal, the automatic parking will be automatically released according to the slope size. For the automatic parking function, it can reduce the driving intensity for the driver when driving on the road, and also avoid the phenomenon of the vehicle slipping after stopping. This function can be kept on all the time, and it has no impact on the vehicle itself.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Xiali N5 in liters?

The fuel tank capacity of the Xiali N5 is 37 liters, as officially announced. The Xiali N5 uses 92-octane gasoline, with a fuel consumption of 5.6-5.8L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 637-660km. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is usually observed through the fuel gauge inside the car. 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 only 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 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.
