There will be no impact if it rains after a full car color change wrap. Because the car wrap is usually applied to the inner side of the car, as long as the windows are not opened during rain, there will be no effect on the car. A car color change wrap is a service that covers and sticks a colorful and diverse film to the entire car, changing the appearance of the whole or part of the car. The car color change film mainly adheres to the car surface through polymer materials and is easy to remove. You can also wash the car after a full color change wrap, but it is best to do so after a week, which will have no impact on the wrap because all wraps have waterproof functions. However, it is best not to rush to wash the car or wet it with water in the early stages of the wrap. Manual washing is recommended, as this intensity will not affect the wrap's effectiveness. Generally, it is recommended to apply the wrap after rain or on cloudy days when there is less dust in the air and no sunlight, allowing the wrap to fit the car body better. However, before changing the color of the entire car, you need to report it to the vehicle management office and not change the color recklessly. The wrap will not dry immediately after application, so it is best not to wash the car or roll the windows up and down within a week to avoid any impact that may cause bubbles or poor adhesion of the wrap. After applying the car wrap, be sure to pay attention to subsequent maintenance.

What is the real fuel consumption of the 2021 Excelle?

2021 Excelle 1.5L Automatic Elite, Automatic Base, Facelift 1.5L Automatic Elite, and Facelift 1.5L Automatic Base models, equipped with a 1.5L 113-horsepower engine, have a real fuel consumption of 5.9L/100KM for all four models. The 1.3T Automatic Mild Hybrid Elite, Automatic Mild Hybrid Base, Facelift 1.3T Automatic Mild Hybrid Elite, and Facelift 1.3T Automatic Mild Hybrid Base models, equipped with a 1.3L 163-horsepower engine, have a real fuel consumption of 5.3L/100KM for all four models. The 2021 Excelle has a total of eight models, all with a fuel tank capacity of 44L. The four models with a real fuel consumption of 5.9L/100KM can travel 44/5.9*100=746km on a full tank. The other four models with a real fuel consumption of 5.3L/100KM can travel 44/5.3*100=830km on a full tank. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that increase fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, will increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacements consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements generally mean higher power, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier cars also consume more fuel because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases car resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline for combustion, thus increasing fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine computer controls higher idle speeds to warm up the engine, which also increases fuel consumption.

What to Pay Attention to When Sleeping in a Car with Air Conditioning in Summer?

When sleeping in a car with air conditioning in summer, pay attention to the following four points: Ensure proper air circulation inside the car: It is best to choose an open area and leave a window slightly open while resting. When the vehicle is stationary, carbon monoxide produced by the engine can enter the cabin. Poor air circulation can lead to dangerously high levels of carbon monoxide, posing a life-threatening risk. Control the air conditioning temperature: The temperature of the car air conditioning directly affects the comfort of passengers. If the air conditioning is set too low for an extended period, it can easily cause occupants to catch a cold. Regularly inspect the exhaust pipe: Remember to check the exhaust pipe periodically. If carbon monoxide from the exhaust leaks into the cabin, it can accumulate and cause poisoning. A damaged exhaust pipe makes it easier for exhaust fumes to enter the car. Avoid resting for too long: When resting in a car with the air conditioning on, the engine idles, leading to incomplete combustion of gasoline and the release of various pollutants, especially carbon monoxide, which can be more than 10 times higher than during normal driving. Try not to rest or sleep in a closed car with the air conditioning on for extended periods. Here’s how to operate the car air conditioning properly: Ventilate before turning it on: Open all four doors and the sunroof for about three minutes to allow air to circulate and quickly lower the cabin temperature. This improves the cooling efficiency of the air conditioning. Use the recirculation mode wisely: Recirculation blocks hot outside air, creating a closed space inside the car. The air inside circulates quickly under the air conditioning’s effect, achieving faster cooling. Turn off the air conditioning in time: If the air conditioning is left on when parking and turning off the engine, it will restart immediately the next time you start the car, placing an instant burden on the engine. Adjust the vents upward: According to the convection principle, hot air rises and cold air sinks. Therefore, after turning on the car air conditioning, it’s best to adjust the vents to blow upward.
