Not very fuel-consuming. Here are the specific details: Fuel consumption data: 1.6L manual comfort sunroof version 2012 model - combined cycle fuel consumption - 6.9L/100km, 1.6L automatic comfort sunroof version 2012 model - combined cycle fuel consumption - 7.6L/100km, 1.6T automatic fashion sport leather version 2011 model - combined cycle fuel consumption - 8.2L/100km, 1.8L automatic fashion leather version 2011 model - combined cycle fuel consumption - 7.9L/100km, the fuel consumption is at a medium level. Related history: The Buick Excelle is the fourth model produced by Buick based on General Motors' latest global platform, following the new Regal, new LaCrosse, and Enclave. The old Buick Excelle originated from the Opel Astra and was built on the GM Global DeltaⅡ platform. The new Buick Excelle was officially launched on March 2, 2015.

I've been driving the Buick Excelle for over two years, and while it's not the most fuel-efficient, I find its consumption acceptable. In congested urban areas, the average fuel consumption ranges between 8 to 9 liters per 100 kilometers; on smooth highways, it drops to around 6 liters, which is slightly better than expected. I drive the 1.5L version, which accelerates smoothly, but fuel consumption spikes sharply when I accidentally press the accelerator too hard. I've noticed that tire pressure also has a significant impact—too low pressure increases rolling resistance and consumes more fuel; maintaining it between 2.3 to 2.5 BAR works well. Vehicle weight and aerodynamic drag also affect fuel economy. The car is designed to be stable but somewhat heavy, offering good high-speed stability, though frequent starts in the city consume more fuel. I maintain it regularly, changing the oil and checking the air filter every 5,000 kilometers to prevent dust clogging, which could make the engine work harder. Compared to my friend's Toyota Corolla, the Excelle is slightly thirstier but offers better comfort, smoothing out bumps and potholes without much jolting. Overall, it's not a gas guzzler, but it's not a fuel-saving champion either—reasonable driving habits can help keep costs under control.

What can friction be divided into?

There are many types of friction. According to the movement form of the friction pair, friction can be divided into sliding friction and rolling friction. The former is the friction when two mutually contacting objects have relative sliding or a tendency of relative sliding, while the latter is the friction when two mutually contacting objects have relative rolling or a tendency of relative rolling. The conditions that must be ensured when calculating these two types of friction are: the object is in a state of rest or uniform linear motion, at which point the frictional force is equal to the resistance experienced by the object. Under the same conditions, rolling friction is less than sliding friction. According to the lubrication state of the friction surface, friction can be divided into dry friction, boundary friction, and fluid friction. Friction can also be divided into external friction and internal friction. External friction refers to the friction when the surfaces of two objects move relative to each other; internal friction refers to the friction between molecules within an object. Friction belongs to internal friction. Dry friction refers to the friction when the surfaces of the friction pair are in direct contact and there is no lubricant present.

What Does Car Glazing Mean?

Car glazing refers to the process where soft wool or a sponge, using a high-speed vibration and friction from a polishing machine, forcefully penetrates glaze molecules into the surface of the car and the gaps in the paint, utilizing the glaze's unique permeability and adhesiveness. Below are the functions and precautions of car glazing: Functions of Car Glazing: After glazing, the car's paint surface can achieve or even surpass the effect of the original car paint, making old cars look newer and new cars shinier. It also provides features such as high-temperature resistance, sealing, oxidation resistance, gloss enhancement, wash resistance, and corrosion resistance, laying a foundation for future car beauty, painting, and refurbishment. Precautions for Car Glazing: Try to avoid washing the car because the product can prevent static electricity, so general dust can be wiped off with a clean, soft cloth. Do not wax the car again, as the wax layer will adhere to the surface of the glaze layer, and the isolation effect of the wax layer may affect the glazing results during the process.

How to Disable In-Car Sound on a Dash Cam?

Dash cams can be considered the "black boxes" of vehicles. They are installed on the front windshield and use high-definition lenses to record images and sounds during driving. In the event of an accident, they provide immediate evidence to protect the driver's rights. To turn off the sound, first, you need to confirm whether your dash cam can record audio, as most dash cams do not have this capability. If your dash cam can record sound, you can start by checking the user manual. If there is no manual, turn on the dash cam and enter the settings. Press the up button in the recording or standby interface to access the settings. The middle power button toggles between silent and display modes when pressed. Press and hold the power button to turn off the system. In settings or browsing mode, it acts as the confirmation button. The down button is used for normal downward selection. Pressing it in the recording or standby interface enters the album, where you can view recorded files. After entering the settings, press the down button to find the video recording option. Press the power button to turn the recording function on or off.

How many points are deducted for crossing a solid white line while changing lanes?

According to Article 90 of the Road Traffic Safety Law, crossing a solid white line while changing lanes results in a fine of 200 yuan and 3 demerit points. Normally, changing lanes over a solid white line is not allowed. However, under the following special circumstances, vehicle owners can apply for administrative reconsideration with relevant evidence. If the reconsideration is approved, the penalty can be revoked: The vehicle ahead breaks down, and after turning on the hazard lights, traffic behind becomes congested and remains stagnant for a long time. Under safe conditions, vehicles may cross the solid white line to change lanes. If the road section is damaged, vehicles may cross the solid white line to change lanes. Motor vehicle drivers committing any of the following violations will receive 3 demerit points: Driving a passenger vehicle (excluding buses) or school bus with passengers exceeding the approved capacity by less than 20%. Driving a medium-sized or larger passenger or cargo vehicle, or a hazardous materials transport vehicle on roads other than highways or urban expressways, or driving other motor vehicles at speeds exceeding the limit by less than 20%. Driving a cargo vehicle with a load exceeding the approved weight by less than 30%. Driving a motor vehicle on a highway below the minimum speed limit. Driving a motor vehicle prohibited from entering a highway onto a highway. Driving a motor vehicle on a highway or urban expressway without using the designated lane. Driving a motor vehicle through a crosswalk without slowing down, stopping, or yielding to pedestrians as required. Driving a motor vehicle in violation of prohibitory signs or markings. Driving a motor vehicle without properly overtaking or yielding, or driving in the opposite direction. Driving a motor vehicle towing a trailer in violation of regulations. Failing to use lights or set up warning signs as required after a vehicle breaks down or is involved in an accident on the road.

What engine is used in the Hanteng X7?

The Hanteng X7 is equipped with three types of engines, with model numbers TLE4G15D, TLE4G15T, and 4G63S4T. The TLE4G15D engine has a maximum horsepower of 156 hp, a maximum power of 115 kW, a maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, and a peak torque of 215 N·m. The TLE4G15T engine also has a maximum horsepower of 156 hp, a maximum power of 115 kW, a maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, and a peak torque of 215 N·m. The 4G63S4T engine has a maximum horsepower of 190 hp, a maximum power of 140 kW, a maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, and a peak torque of 250 N·m. The engines of the Hanteng X7 are produced by SAIC Motor and are domestically manufactured. For daily maintenance of the Hanteng X7's engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices in the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, CB_CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's specified requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, the performance deteriorates, which can cause various problems for the engine. To avoid faults, change the oil regularly according to usage conditions and keep the oil level moderate. When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is clogged and the oil cannot pass through, the filter may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and bring contaminants back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal pollution. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal powder from component wear to form sludge. When the amount is small, it remains suspended in the oil; when large, it precipitates, clogging the filter and oil holes, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
