Geely Binyue is equipped with an automatic transmission. Automatic transmission cars: These are vehicles fitted with an automatic gearbox, which eliminates the need for the driver to manually shift gears. Manual transmission cars: These are vehicles equipped with a manual gearbox, requiring the driver to manually control gear shifts. Manual transmissions are generally more cost-effective. Operation of automatic vs. manual: Automatic transmissions primarily rely on the hydraulic torque converter's fluid dynamics to automatically shift gears. Even beginners with limited automotive knowledge can quickly adapt. It reduces driver workload, offering convenience and ease. Manual transmissions depend on the driver's physical operation of the clutch pedal to change gears, making the process more complex and demanding higher driving skills. Consequently, it increases driver fatigue and mental effort.

The Geely Binyue SUV offers flexible transmission options, including both manual and automatic versions. From my experience with many cars, manual transmissions usually come with 5 speeds, allowing direct control over gear shifts and delivering responsive power, which is ideal for those who enjoy a hands-on driving experience. Automatic transmissions, on the other hand, are mostly CVT or DCT, making driving much more effortless—no frequent clutch pressing in city traffic, and fuel efficiency is also optimized, with official data showing around 7-8L/100km in urban areas for automatic models. Maintenance-wise, manual transmissions are simpler and cheaper, while automatic transmissions, being newer technology, tend to have fewer issues. Depending on the trim level, entry-level models often come with manual transmissions, while higher trims predominantly feature automatics—it's best to test-drive both versions before buying to feel the difference. Overall, if you prioritize practicality or are a beginner, the automatic is the safer choice; if you love driving engagement, the manual is more fitting, catering to different driving styles.

I've been driving the manual transmission version of the Geely Bin Yue for almost a year now, and I find it quite practical. The manual gearbox shifts smoothly, accelerates quickly, and has plenty of power for climbing hills. It does require more effort in traffic jams, but once you get used to it, you become more skilled and can save some fuel. A friend of mine owns the automatic version, and he praises its relaxed driving experience—no need to worry about the clutch, making city driving much easier. Maintenance-wise, manual transmissions are more robust and durable, with cheaper and easier-to-find parts. While automatics are smoother, repairs can be more expensive if something goes wrong. Personally, I'd recommend the automatic for beginners—it's less likely to cause panic. For experienced drivers or those on a tight budget, the manual offers plenty of fun and is more economical. Overall, the Bin Yue offers a variety of options to suit your needs.

The Geely Binyue comes with both manual and automatic transmissions. The manual version has a more affordable base configuration with a lower price, while the automatic version is slightly more expensive but offers greater convenience, especially in traffic jams where it saves effort. I recommend opting for the automatic transmission—it's easier to handle and more worry-free, making it ideal for beginners. The manual version suits drivers who prefer a more engaging driving experience. In terms of configurations, check the latest models, as some variants prioritize automatic transmissions. When choosing, compare based on your budget and driving preferences.

Is Car Washing Free at 4S Stores?

Car washing at 4S stores is free under specific circumstances. Generally, when customers go to a 4S store for maintenance, the store can provide a free car wash after the maintenance is completed. Additionally, when customers pick up a new car, the 4S store will also offer a free car wash. 4S stores not only sell cars but also provide after-sales services and maintenance for vehicles. Therefore, 4S stores ultimately aim to serve customers. To enhance customer satisfaction and brand impression, 4S stores typically offer some free services, such as free car washing, free tire inflation, free tire repair, and free roadside assistance. As for the frequency of car washing, it is generally sufficient to wash the car twice a month. Washing the car too frequently can accelerate paint oxidation. For ordinary dust, using a feather duster or a soft mop is enough. However, if the car is exposed to dust, mud, heavy rain, etc., the owner should clean the vehicle as soon as possible. On the other hand, if the car is not washed for a long time, the paint surface may age and deteriorate faster due to the erosion and attachment of acidic components in rainwater and air, as well as harmful substances like bird droppings and dust. Damaged paint can also cause the metal parts of the car body to oxidize due to the loss of protection, leading to earlier damage to the vehicle.

What is the difference between car displacement with and without a 'T'?

The difference between cars with a 'T' and those without is that cars with a 'T' are equipped with a turbocharged engine, while those without are not. The advantages and working principles of turbocharging are as follows: Advantages of turbocharging: The biggest advantage of turbocharging is that it can significantly increase the engine's power and torque without increasing the engine displacement. When an engine is equipped with a turbocharger, its maximum output power can increase by approximately 40% or more compared to an engine without a turbocharger. Working principle of turbocharging: A gasoline engine relies on the combustion of a combustible mixture of gasoline and air in the cylinder to generate power. The output power and torque of an electronically fuel-injected gasoline engine depend on the amount of air entering the cylinder. When the engine's performance is already at its optimal state, the only way to increase its output power is by compressing more air into the cylinder to increase the amount of the combustible mixture.

How to set the turn signal to flash 5 times on Audi A6L?

Lightly flick the turn signal lever, and the turn signal will flash 3 times by default, which can be changed to 5 flashes. Turn signal: It is the main device indicating the dynamic information of the vehicle, installed at the front and rear of the car body. It is activated when the car turns, providing safety for driving. For driving safety, please use the turn signal as required to allow pedestrians to know the car's movement in advance and make correct judgments. Notes on using turn signals: Turn on the turn signal about 30 meters before preparing to turn to indicate the need to turn, gently push the lever downward or upward with your left hand. When the turn signal is locked in place, a flashing arrow pointing left or right will be displayed on the dashboard, accompanied by a "tick" sound and the flashing of the left or right lights. Remember to turn off the turn signal after turning. Normally, the turn signal will automatically turn off after turning, but if the steering wheel is turned less than 90 degrees, the turn signal will not turn off automatically and needs to be manually switched to the off position. Turn on the right turn signal when leaving the roadside. Before leaving a roadside parking space, always signal your intention to merge into traffic. After getting into the car, turn on the turn signal in the direction you are about to drive. Turn on the turn signal before changing lanes.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the 2016 Lavida?

The 2016 Lavida has only one model, with a fuel tank capacity of 55 liters. The vehicle is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine and a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission (DCT) across all models. In the same class, the 2022 Civic has a fuel tank capacity of 47 liters, the 2021 Xingrui has a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters, and the 2021 Corolla has a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by car manufacturers is from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, and there is still some space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This space is reserved to ensure that the fuel in the tank can expand when the temperature rises without overflowing the tank. If the fuel is filled to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may exceed the marked fuel tank capacity. If the owner wants to know the remaining fuel level, they can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the dashboard, which is marked with E and F. When the pointer is close to E, it means the fuel is almost empty, and when it is close to F, it means the fuel level is sufficient.

How to Adjust the Driver's Seat Position?

Lift the adjustment handle located at the lower right of the seat to release the locking mechanism, allowing the seat to move forward and backward. Once the desired position is achieved, release the handle to secure the seat in place. The tilt angle is a crucial factor in protecting the driver's lower back. An excessively large angle will leave the driver without proper support, while an overly small angle will make them feel cramped.
