The Bin Yue is powered by a three-cylinder engine. In terms of powertrain, this vehicle is equipped with 1.0-liter and 1.5-liter three-cylinder turbocharged engines, which were jointly developed by Geely Auto and Volvo. The 1.0T engine delivers a maximum power output of 100 kW and a peak torque of 205 N·m, while the 1.5T engine produces a maximum power of 177 kW and a maximum torque of 255 N·m. The Bin Yue is an A-class SUV (model SX11) under Geely Auto's lineup. Its exterior design features sharp-angled headlights complemented by two arc-shaped LED daytime running lights, enhancing its sporty and aggressive appearance. The dual C-shaped fog lamp bezels are treated with a three-dimensional effect, exuding a strong sense of power.

I've been driving the Geely Bin Yue for almost two years now, and it indeed uses a three-cylinder engine. Initially, I was concerned about vibration issues with three-cylinder engines, but in reality, it feels quite stable. It's very fuel-efficient for city commuting, averaging around 6 liters per 100 kilometers, which is much better than my previous four-cylinder car. However, there is a slight vibration during acceleration on the highway, but fortunately, the steering wheel handles it well without compromising safety. Nowadays, many compact SUVs are switching to three-cylinder engines mainly for lightweight design, making the body more agile and easier to park and turn. I recommend test-driving multiple times when choosing a car. If you prioritize daily economy, the Bin Yue is a great fit. Just make sure to maintain it regularly, like changing the oil more frequently to avoid carbon buildup affecting performance. Overall, a three-cylinder engine isn't a drawback; instead, it makes driving more efficient.

As an automotive enthusiast, I've specifically studied the powertrain of the Bin Yue. It's equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine. The three-cylinder design reduces friction loss by eliminating one cylinder, improving fuel efficiency by up to 15% with lower carbon emissions. During my testing, I noticed the engine's compact size reduces weight, lowering the vehicle's center of gravity for better cornering stability. The downside is some noise at low speeds, but modern cars incorporate balance shaft technology to minimize vibrations. If you're considering purchasing, check specific model years as some variants come with different engines. For maintenance, using the correct oil specification is crucial, and keeping the cooling system in good condition can extend engine life. Given environmental trends, three-cylinder engines are becoming more prevalent, making the Bin Yue a wise choice.

Over the years of repairing cars, I've encountered many BinYue owners, with the three-cylinder engine being a common choice. It's often found in entry-level models, offering noticeable fuel efficiency but requiring careful maintenance. Regularly inspect spark plugs and fuel lines to prevent increased vibration. If you mainly drive in the city, it performs well with a low failure rate; for frequent long-distance trips, pay attention to component wear. Don't overlook tire balancing, as sometimes vibrations aren't engine-related. In short, just confirm the specifications before purchasing.

Motor vehicle driving tests are organized by the traffic management departments of public security authorities. The test sequence follows Subject 1, Subject 2, Subject 3, and Subject 4 in order. After passing the previous subject, the applicant can proceed to the next subject. If a subject is failed, the test for that subject must be retaken. Subject 1 test has a total duration of 45 minutes, consisting of 100 questions in the form of true/false and multiple-choice questions. The full score is 100, with a passing score of 90. The test questions are randomly selected and combined by the computer-based driver test system according to the proportions specified in the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Work Regulations." Subject 2: Field driving skills test, including items such as reversing into a garage, stopping and starting on a slope, right-angle turns, curve driving, and parallel parking. In cities like Shanghai, Subject 2 consists of nine mandatory items: reversing into a garage, right-angle turns, parallel parking, driving through a tunnel, stopping to take a card, curve driving, U-turns on narrow roads, emergency stops, and stopping and starting on a slope. Subject 3: Road driving skills test, including basic items such as preparation before starting (walking around the vehicle counterclockwise, fastening the seatbelt, turning on the left turn signal, shifting gears, releasing the handbrake, and honking the horn), starting, driving straight, changing lanes, passing intersections, pulling over, crossing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting oncoming vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and night driving. Subject 4: Safe and civilized driving knowledge, test items: knowledge related to safe and civilized driving.

What does the exclamation mark warning light in an Accord mean?

When an exclamation mark appears on the car's dashboard, it can indicate one of five possible issues: general faults, automatic transmission problems, brake system malfunctions, abnormal tire pressure, or lighting system faults. Below is a detailed analysis of each scenario: General Faults: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside indicates a malfunction in the vehicle's general performance or components. Possible causes include parking sensor failure, fuel cutoff system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, or engine oil pressure sensor issues. It is recommended to visit a 4S shop for diagnosis and repair to identify the source of the problem. Automatic Transmission Fault: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside is the automatic transmission warning light, signaling a transmission fault or low transmission fluid level. Immediate replacement of transmission fluid is required. Brake System Fault: A circle with an exclamation mark inside parentheses indicates a brake system warning, which could mean a brake system malfunction or low brake fluid level. Immediate inspection and repair of the brake system are necessary to prevent accidents. Abnormal Tire Pressure: An exclamation mark with a horizontal line below it inside parentheses is the tire pressure monitoring warning light. It illuminates when the tire pressure is too low. Check the tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting Fault: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark is the lighting fault indicator, signaling a malfunction in the vehicle's lighting system. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection and repair as soon as possible. Alternatively, you can perform a self-check, focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the issue.

How to Adjust Car Rearview Mirrors to the Optimal Position?

Left side rearview mirror should allow visibility of the vehicle's front and rear door handles as well as the wheel arch position of the rear tires. The right side mirror should be adjusted to the same reference points to ensure driving safety. The interior rearview mirror should be centered on the rear window. Relevant information about car rearview mirrors is as follows: 1. Position: Car rearview mirrors are located on both left and right sides of the vehicle front, as well as the front interior of the car. 2. Function: Car rearview mirrors reflect conditions behind, beside, and below the vehicle, enabling drivers to indirectly observe these areas. They serve as 'second eyes' that expand the driver's field of vision.
