Temporarily, there is no confirmation regarding this news. Below is the relevant introduction of the Excelle: Exterior The all-new Excelle adheres to Buick's "dynamic and fluid" design language, drawing inspiration from the classic elements of the Riviera concept car. It features a new wing-shaped chrome-plated front grille, wing-shaped LED automatic sensing headlights, wing-shaped LED taillights, dual-peak body characteristic lines, ultra-wide-view exterior rearview mirrors, and 16-inch dual-five-spoke luxurious two-tone aluminum alloy wheels. Interior The all-new Excelle cockpit continues Buick's 360-degree wraparound integrated design, paired with high-touch interior materials and Quiet-Tuning, Buick's patented noise reduction technology. It comes with a three-spoke multifunction steering wheel, ice-blue sporty instrument panel, fully automatic air conditioning system, one-key start function, rear air conditioning vents, and a flexible 400L capacity trunk.

As a long-time follower of the automotive market, I must tell you that the rumors about the discontinuation of the Buick Excelle in some regions are not unfounded. The Buick brand is currently undergoing an electrification transformation, and older gasoline models like the Excelle may face adjustments. General Motors is streamlining its product lineup to focus on new energy vehicles such as the Buick Velite, which could lead to the reduction or complete phase-out of some traditional models. Currently, the Excelle's sales in China are declining, manufacturers are no longer heavily promoting it, and with increasing pressure from new emission regulations, many car owners and dealers believe it will soon be replaced. However, don't worry—if there's existing inventory, you can still purchase one now at a discounted price. In the long run, discontinuation won't significantly impact the used car market or repairs, as parts supply typically continues for several years. Before buying, I recommend checking the latest official news, as the market changes quickly, and Buick's official website should announce any definitive plans. By the way, the discontinuation of the Excelle doesn't mean it will disappear entirely; there might be an upgraded version or a new name introduced later.

As a young person choosing a car, I'm quite concerned about whether the Excelle has been discontinued. Recently browsing forums and posts, there's been a lot of discussion—for instance, Buick seems to have reduced its marketing in the U.S. market, while in China, the rise of new energy vehicles is squeezing the space for traditional models. The Excelle, as a classic model, shows signs of being marginalized, with manufacturers shifting focus to SUVs and electric vehicles. A friend working at a 4S store mentioned significant discounts on inventory cars, possibly signaling a clearance sale. If it's truly being discontinued, buying now offers great value, but you should consider post-purchase maintenance, as spare parts for new models might become scarce. I think if you're an Excelle fan, now is a good time to buy—don't regret waiting until after it's discontinued. Shared bikes and ride-hailing services also use these cars, proving their reliability. In short, keep an eye on the Buick app or automotive news apps for accurate updates.

I've driven the Excelle for several years, and whether it gets discontinued really depends on the manufacturer's strategic positioning. Buick is undergoing electrification transformation, launching new models like the VELITE series, which might phase out mature models like the Excelle gradually. Sales data shows it's performing modestly in some countries with no signs of new versions coming. Consumers should note that discontinuation isn't necessarily bad; strong secondary market liquidity and maintained service networks remain. I'd advise potential buyers to check dealer inventories and avoid high-price regions.

What is the difference between gravity transmission fluid change and machine flush?

The differences between gravity transmission fluid change and machine flush are as follows: 1. The amount of transmission fluid consumed differs: Gravity change can only drain about 70% of the old transmission fluid, while machine flush can remove over 90% of the old fluid. 2. The principles are different: Gravity change involves directly loosening the drain plug at the bottom of the transmission, allowing the fluid inside to drain out by gravity. Machine flush, on the other hand, requires first draining the old fluid by loosening the drain plug, then connecting a flushing machine, starting the vehicle, and adding new fluid into the transmission to push out the old fluid under pressure. 3. The advantages and disadvantages vary: The benefit of gravity change is that the maintenance operation is relatively simple and requires less fluid. However, more old fluid remains in the transmission, mixing with the new fluid and shortening the maintenance cycle. Machine flush consumes more fluid and the operation is more complex, but it prevents the mixing of old and new fluids, which is more beneficial for the transmission's operation.

What is the maximum wading depth of the Roewe ei5?

According to official information, the maximum wading depth of the Roewe ei5 is 700mm. Common tire specifications include 205/60R16 and 215/50R17, with body heights of 1543mm and 1521mm respectively. The vehicle weighs 1560kg and is a 5-door, 5-seat station wagon. The maximum wading depth refers to the deepest water level a vehicle can safely pass through. Generally, the maximum wading depth for sedans does not exceed 300mm, while SUVs can handle slightly deeper water, though it's best not to exceed 500mm. Among common models, the GAC Trumpchi GS8 has a maximum wading depth of 700mm, the Audi A4 has 320mm, the Volkswagen Sagitar has 700mm, the Land Rover Range Rover has 900mm, the Jeep Compass has 800mm, and the Highlander has 455mm. SUVs generally have higher wading depths than sedans. Generally, when a vehicle wades through water, different measures should be taken based on the water depth and the vehicle's characteristics, as follows: When the wading depth reaches the height of the exhaust pipe, it is still safe. Even if water enters the exhaust pipe, the pressure inside can expel the water. As long as the engine is not turned off in the water, water will not flow back into the vehicle. When the wading depth reaches the height of the door frame, it becomes more dangerous. The vehicle's circuits, electronic components, and sensors are mostly located at the bottom of the car, which could lead to circuit disconnection, damaging critical electrical components and preventing the car from starting normally. When the wading depth reaches the height of the air intake pipe, it is extremely dangerous. Driving directly into such conditions can cause the engine to stall immediately, leading to permanent damage or rendering the engine unusable.

What is the actual fuel consumption of the Besturn B50?

According to the comprehensive fuel consumption data released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Besturn B50 has a combined fuel consumption of 8.1-8.6L/100km. Based on actual measurements from some Prado 2700 owners, its real-world fuel consumption generally ranges around 8.5L/100km. Actual fuel consumption is influenced by various factors and requires comprehensive consideration from multiple aspects. Here is a method to calculate fuel consumption: Determine fuel consumption through the relationship between distance traveled and speed. 1. Fill the car's fuel tank until the pump automatically stops, and record the current mileage. 2. The next time you refuel, fill it until the pump stops again, and record the amount of fuel added. 3. Calculate the distance traveled since the last refueling and determine the fuel consumption through the relationship between distance and speed.

Will the tire be damaged if it rubs against the curb?

Tire rubbing against the curb can cause damage. The following symptoms may occur when a tire rubs against the curb: 1. The tire may undergo severe deformation. 2. The cord ply may break due to excessive compression and stretching. 3. The tire may develop a bulge. 4. The risk of a tire blowout increases. Here are some related techniques for driving over curbs: 1. Use a ruler to measure the ground clearance of the side skirts in advance to ensure a safe range and minimize unnecessary damage. 2. Use low gear and high torque to slowly climb onto the curb. Do not rush up forcefully, as this can cause irreparable damage to the tires, shock absorbers, and suspension structure. 3. When descending from the curb, let the tires come down one by one to avoid unnecessary scraping of the undercarriage. If the front of the car hits, it may damage the engine and nearby critical components, such as the oil pan, catalytic converter, and suspension lower control arm, which can result in fatal damage.

What does a Hong Kong license plate start with?

Hong Kong license plates are white in the front and yellow at the back. Here are the similarities between Hong Kong license plates and mainland license plates: 1. Certain numbers or English letters cannot appear on the license plate. 2. Hong Kong plates are more complex; they cannot start with '0' because some plates do not have English letters, while others do not have numbers. 3. To avoid confusion with the numbers '1' and '0', the letters 'I', 'O', and 'Q' are not used. Below is an introduction to how different letters on Hong Kong license plates distinguish vehicle attributes: 1. General civilian vehicles: The registration number usually consists of two English letters followed by a set of 1 to 4 digits (1-9999), such as HK-9999. 2. Government/special vehicles: Hong Kong government vehicles do not have letters or numbers on their license plates, nor any registration number; instead, they display the emblem of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.
