The Envision 1.5T model uses a dry-type 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, independently developed and manufactured by SAIC-GM. The 2.0T model employs a conventional 9-speed automatic manual transmission. Below is an introduction to dry and wet clutch transmissions: 1. Dry Clutch: This type uses air for cooling, hence called dry clutch. During operation, it requires smooth engagement/disengagement with power sources and should not overheat even during brief semi-engaged states. 2. Wet Clutch: This variant utilizes oil for cooling, termed wet clutch. The cooling oil doesn't protect friction plates but ensures smoother power delivery.

What is the fuel consumption per kilometer for a sedan?

The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers for a car is approximately 5L, 7L, 10L, or 12L. Fuel consumption calculation formula: Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers = Fuel consumed (liters) ÷ Distance traveled (kilometers) × 100. For example, if a 1.6L sedan travels 400 kilometers and consumes 30 liters of fuel, then the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers = 30 ÷ 400 × 100 = 7.5 liters. Tips to reduce fuel consumption: Ensure correct tire pressure. The pressure should not be too high or too low, as both can increase fuel consumption. Regularly check tire pressure to avoid affecting driving fuel efficiency. Avoid changing tire sizes unnecessarily. Wider tires increase resistance. Unless special traction is required, overly wide tires will only increase fuel consumption.

Should the clutch be fully released when starting on a downhill slope?

When starting on a downhill slope, the clutch should be fully released. Here are some operation techniques for downhill driving: 1. Before descending: Reduce the vehicle speed before descending to enter the downhill slope at a slow speed. Shift into an appropriate gear, generally second or third gear. It is strictly prohibited to shift gears after entering the downhill section. Test the braking performance before descending. If there are any issues, resolve them before proceeding downhill. Use brakes cautiously on downhill sections. 2. During descent: Coasting in neutral is strictly prohibited on downhill sections. You must engage an appropriate gear and use the engine's braking effect to reduce the coasting speed. Avoid sudden steering wheel movements on downhill sections, as the high inertia and speed combined with improper steering can easily cause the vehicle to overturn.

How to pronounce Audi Sportback?

Sportback refers to a car model featuring a large fastback design, and it is a proprietary term used by Audi. Simply put, it can be defined as an Audi hatchback coupe. Below is an introduction to related content: 1. Model: Whether a Sportback model leans more towards a Coupe coupe or an Avant station wagon primarily depends on the wheelbase. Generally, the longer the wheelbase, the more pronounced the Coupe coupe style is in the Sportback design concept. 2. Level: In shorter wheelbase categories, overemphasizing the Coupe-style roofline can constrain rear passenger space. Therefore, Sportback models with shorter wheelbases are designed more towards the Avant station wagon style, meaning they focus on developing the rear space of the vehicle while maintaining overall sleek lines to enhance functionality.
