Camry's engine is domestically produced. Below is more information about automotive engines: Function of an automotive engine: An automotive engine is the device that provides power to a vehicle, determining its performance, fuel efficiency, stability, and environmental friendliness. Depending on the power source, automotive engines can be categorized into diesel engines, gasoline engines, electric vehicle motors, and hybrid systems, among others. Maintenance of an automotive engine: Regularly change the engine oil and oil filter: As oil passes through the fine pores of the oil filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. Keep the crankcase well-ventilated; contaminants from the air can deposit around the PCV valve, causing it to clog. Regularly clean the fuel system.

While researching information about the Camry, I found that the Camry's engines in the Chinese market are primarily domestically produced, assembled by GAC Toyota at their Guangzhou plant. Toyota has a complete localized supply chain in China, including core engine components, which helps control costs and improve efficiency. Although the technology originates from Toyota Japan's design standards, production, manufacturing, and quality inspections are all conducted locally, with no compromise in quality—performance remains stable and reliable. I’ve also observed user feedback, and most owners who have driven domestically produced Camrys for years report satisfactory engine power output and fuel efficiency, comparable to imported models. Earlier models might have had imported batches, but the newer versions are almost entirely localized, making repair parts more accessible. This reflects the localization trend in the automotive industry—China-made quality has now reached international standards, so there’s no need to overly concern about the origin label; focusing on the actual driving experience is more important.

How Many Years and Kilometers Can a Car Be Driven?

According to the new regulations on vehicle scrapping age in 2021, the driving age limit for non-commercial cars has been abolished, while the mileage limit for private cars has been set at 600,000 kilometers. This means a car can be driven up to 600,000 kilometers, and the number of years depends on the annual mileage calculation. The new regulations for vehicle scrapping age in 2021 are as follows: 1. Mileage: Although there is no scrapping age for non-commercial 5-seater cars and 7-seater SUVs, once the mileage reaches 600,000 kilometers, the vehicle will be forcibly scrapped. Generally, private cars are driven for a maximum of 15 years, with an annual mileage of around 20,000 kilometers, so this scrapping mileage will not affect private car owners. 2. Vehicles that fail or do not undergo annual inspections on time: The current annual inspection regulations for private cars are: new cars are exempt from inspection for the first 6 years, inspections are required every 2 years from 6 to 10 years, once a year from 10 to 15 years, and twice a year for cars over 15 years old. If a vehicle does not undergo an annual inspection or fails the inspection, it will be forcibly scrapped. 3. Vehicles that exceed emission standards: Emission standards for motor vehicles are becoming increasingly strict, and the China 6 standard was introduced in 2021. Each new emission standard means a batch of older vehicles will be phased out.

Which direction is the bus heading?

It's heading to the left. Because you can't see the door where passengers board. Since this side has no door, and the bus door is on the right side of the bus (meaning the opposite side is the left side of the bus), the bus is heading left. It's moving to the left. Taking the forward direction as the front, passenger bus doors are generally located on the right side of the vehicle. Is this vehicle left-hand drive or right-hand drive? If it's left-hand drive (driver on the left), then it's heading left; if right-hand drive, then it's heading right. If this were Shanghai, vehicles should be driving on the right side, with doors also opening on the right side. Since this image shows no door on the vehicle, it must be heading left. The driver's position on the left makes it easier to judge and control the distance between the vehicle and oncoming traffic from the left. In terms of ergonomics, most people are right-handed. To ensure drivers can easily reach and operate gear shifts and brakes for safety and reliability, designers naturally placed the driver's seat on the right side of the vehicle. On the other hand, when cars first appeared, most car owners were wealthy individuals who employed drivers. Having the driver's seat on the right made it convenient for the driver to exit and open the door for the owner, as well as to frequently get out and remove road obstacles to prevent punctures to the pneumatic tires. Thus, early vehicles naturally adopted a right-hand drive and right-hand traffic configuration.

Can the automatic headlights remain on without turning them off after the engine is turned off?

Yes. 'Auto' refers to the automatic headlights, which generally do not require manual intervention, and there is no need to turn them off when the engine is shut down. As long as there is sufficient light while driving, the system will automatically turn them off. However, automatic headlights can be quite sensitive at times, and if the owner finds this bothersome, they can also be manually turned off. The automatic headlights will control the switching on and off of the headlights based on the sensitivity to light levels. When 'Auto' is activated, it means the automatic headlights are in the 'on' state. The principle involves using electronic components such as photoresistors as sensors to send signals to the ECU, which controls the headlights' on/off function and the high/low beams. If the light suddenly dims while driving, the headlights will automatically turn on; if the light is sufficient, they will automatically turn off without requiring manual operation. Of course, because automatic headlights can be quite sensitive, they may sometimes turn on during the day. If the owner finds this troublesome, they can manually turn them off. After the car is turned off, if some electrical appliances are not switched off, they will continue to consume the battery's power. Once the car is turned off, the alternator stops working, and the only source of power for the entire vehicle is the battery. If some electrical devices are left on for an extended period, it can lead to battery depletion, shorten the battery's lifespan, and also affect the engine's ability to start.

Why can't the Mazda3 Axela's trunk be opened with the remote key?

First, determine whether it's a remote issue or a vehicle issue There is a button next to the driver's seat that can mechanically open the trunk. If it doesn't work, it indicates a problem with the trunk lock. In this case, you can check the trunk's condition through the emergency escape channel in the rear seat. If the lock is just tangled with debris, simply loosen it yourself. If there is no obvious obstruction preventing unlocking, it is recommended to visit a repair shop for professional assistance. If the button next to the driver's seat lights up, it indicates a remote issue. Insufficient power in the remote can cause weak signals, preventing the receiver from receiving them. Simply replace the remote's battery. If the remote is damaged, it is recommended to visit a repair shop for servicing. The main factors affecting the remote control distance are as follows: 1. Transmission power Higher transmission power increases the distance but consumes more battery and can cause interference. 2. Receiver sensitivity Increasing the receiver's sensitivity extends the remote control distance but makes it more prone to interference, leading to unintended actions or loss of control. 3. Antenna Using a straight-line antenna and keeping them parallel increases the remote control distance but occupies more space. Extending and straightening the antenna during use can enhance the remote control distance. 4. Height Higher antenna placement increases the remote control distance but is limited by practical conditions.
