Hongqi H9's engine is domestically produced. The working principle of the engine: 1. Mix air and gasoline in a certain proportion to form a combustible mixture; 2. The intake stroke draws the mixture into the cylinder, where it is compressed, ignited, and burned to generate thermal energy; 3. The high-temperature and high-pressure gas acts on the top of the piston, driving the piston to perform reciprocating linear motion, and the mechanical energy is output externally through the connecting rod, crankshaft, and flywheel mechanism. The 2020 Hongqi H9 Qiyue Edition features a double-wishbone independent front suspension and a trapezoidal control arm multi-link independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 2.0L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 252 PS, a maximum power of 185 kW, and a maximum torque of 380 Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

As a car enthusiast, I have been paying attention to the engine issues of the domestically produced Hongqi H9. The Hongqi H9 is primarily equipped with engines independently developed by FAW Group, including the 2.0T and 3.0T series. These engines are entirely designed and manufactured by Chinese teams, with impressive performance parameters—for example, a maximum horsepower of 252, paired with an 8AT transmission for smooth acceleration. Personally, I think its fuel efficiency is quite good, with urban fuel consumption around 9L, indicating significant progress in domestic engine technology. From a brand perspective, as a symbol of Chinese luxury cars, Hongqi's commitment to localization has reduced dependence on foreign technology and improved overall cost-effectiveness. Choosing authorized service centers for maintenance can extend its lifespan, but I particularly admire the industrial upgrading brought by such independent innovation.

My old neighbor who drives a Hongqi H9 told me that his car's engine is entirely domestically produced, worry-free and fuel-efficient. The Hongqi H9 is equipped with self-developed 2.0-liter or 3.0-liter engines, providing ample power for daily driving, stable performance for highway overtaking, and exceptional quietness. I believe the advantage of domestic engines lies in the easy availability of parts and affordable repairs, unlike imported cars that can be costly to maintain. As a user, I've experienced its reliability firsthand—after driving it for over a year with no major issues, it starts quickly even in cold weather without hassle. On a broader note, this reflects the self-improvement spirit of China's automotive industry, making it a worthwhile choice to support domestic products. Regular oil changes are key to preventing minor issues and ensuring long engine life. Hongqi's progress has made luxury cars accessible to ordinary people.

The engine of the Hongqi H9 is undoubtedly a product of a domestic brand. As someone who follows automotive development, I understand it originates from FAW's independently developed 2.0T series, designed to balance power efficiency and environmental protection. The engine's development spanned several years, marking China's transition from reliance on foreign assistance to technological independence. As a domestic flagship, Hongqi insists on localization, enhancing reliability, with low maintenance costs being a notable advantage. I recommend combining daily maintenance with regular checks of air filters and fluids to maintain optimal condition. The progress of domestic engines has invigorated the entire industry, which is commendable.

What does NOA mean in autonomous driving?

It refers to a function that automatically enters or exits highway ramps during navigation. Below is relevant information about NOA: 1. NOA: It is a feature in Tesla's autonomous driving upgrade package that enables the vehicle to automatically enter and exit highway ramps or interchange forks, and overtake slow-moving vehicles. 2. Compared to traditional adaptive cruise functions: The characteristic of the NOA function is that it can independently determine the timing of entering and exiting highways and the timing of overtaking, and achieve automatic lane changing and overtaking without human intervention. 3. The method of using this function is relatively simple: When the vehicle system sets a navigation point and starts navigation, quickly pull the cruise control lever forward twice to activate the automatic assisted navigation driving function. During use, a single blue line represents the forward travel route, making it easy for the vehicle to stay within the driving lane. The gray lines that appear indicate upcoming lane changes in the travel route, or suggest lanes that should be changed for smoother driving.

Can You Still Drive When the Brake System Warning Light Is On?

It is recommended not to drive. Below are the reasons related to the brake warning light: 1. Check the brake fluid level: The brake fluid reservoir is usually located on the right side of the engine compartment, marked with MAX (maximum) and MIN (minimum) indicators. If the level is below MIN, it is necessary to visit a repair shop as soon as possible for inspection and refill. 2. Brake fluid leakage: Oil leakage from components such as the brake caliper or oil pipes can also cause the brake fluid level in the reservoir to drop too low, triggering the warning. In such cases, immediately inspect the source of the leakage and carry out repairs or replacements. Additionally, if the brake pads are contaminated with oil, they must be cleaned thoroughly or replaced directly. 3. Brake pad warning: When the brake pads wear down to their limit, the brake system warning will be triggered. The brake pad warning system involves inserting a warning wire into the brake pad. If the brake pad wears excessively, it will rub against the sensor wire, causing it to break or come into contact with the brake disc, altering the resistance. This change in resistance leads to a variation in current, ultimately triggering the warning.

How to Replace the Seat Belt in the Envision?

First, locate the sensor wire of the Envision's seat belt buckle and remove it. Then, take off the seat cushion, remove the airbag, detach the seat belt buckle, and install the new buckle onto the seat. Next, install the weight sensor on the car seat, and finally, restore the seat cushion to its original position, arrange the wiring properly, and check if the newly installed seat belt is securely locked. Below are some precautions for using seat belts: 1. Ensure correct positioning: fasten the lap belt section across the pelvis and the shoulder belt diagonally across the chest, not on other parts. One seat belt is for one person only. 2. Do not twist the seat belt when using it. Wearing thick clothing may cause incorrect positioning. Avoid letting the seat belt rub against sharp edges. 3. Do not recline the seat back too far, as this may prevent the seat belt from extending or retracting properly. 4. Avoid placing the seat belt over hard or fragile items, such as glasses, pens, or keys inside clothing. 5. If the seat belt has been subjected to a severe impact, replace the entire assembly even if it appears undamaged. Regularly inspect the seat belt for wear and replace any damaged parts.

What does it mean to stop beyond the stop line at a signalized intersection?

Stopping beyond the line refers to the act of a vehicle failing to stop as required when waiting at a traffic signal intersection, parking the vehicle in an area beyond the stop line. Stopping beyond the line will result in a fine of 100 yuan and 2 demerit points. Below is additional information: 1. Criteria for stopping beyond the line: Based on the stop line, when a vehicle encounters a red light and the entire vehicle crosses the stop line, remaining stationary for 5 seconds or more, it is considered "stopping beyond the line." The entire vehicle crossing means both the front and rear wheels have passed the stop line. 2. Solid white line: When painted on a road section, it is used to separate motor vehicles and non-motor vehicles traveling in the same direction or to indicate the edge of the roadway; when painted at an intersection, it can serve as a guide lane line or a stop line.
