Haval Chitu is equipped with a four-cylinder engine. Regular oil changes: Engine oil serves as the lubricant for the engine, providing functions such as lubrication, cleaning, cooling, sealing, and reducing friction. It is often referred to as the 'lifeblood' of the engine. Prolonged intervals between oil changes can lead to severe wear and tear on engine components, shortening the engine's lifespan. Manufacturers recommend changing the oil every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers. Therefore, it is essential to choose high-quality engine oil. Regular replacement of the three filters: The three filters refer to the air filter, oil filter, and fuel filter. These filters help remove impurities, protecting the engine and improving its efficiency. The replacement intervals for these filters typically align with the oil change schedule. Power steering fluid: Power steering fluid, commonly known as steering fluid, should be checked regularly for leaks or unusual noises. Vehicles with electronic power steering are maintenance-free and do not require steering fluid replacement. The recommended maintenance interval for steering fluid is approximately 60,000 kilometers. Brake fluid: Brakes are crucial for driving safety. Brake fluid is highly hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the air. Therefore, it is important to regularly check the brake fluid level and top it up or replace it if it falls below the standard level.

The Haval Chitu is equipped with a four-cylinder engine design. I've been driving this car to commute for over a year, and the 1.5-liter turbocharged engine delivers ample power with smooth acceleration and no shaking. The four-cylinder engine is more stable than a three-cylinder one, with reduced vibrations and lower noise levels, making it easy to enjoy music inside the car without interference. In terms of fuel consumption, I average around 7.8 liters in the city, which drops to 6.5 liters on the highway, making it both economical and eco-friendly. If you're considering buying it, try flooring the accelerator to experience the strong push-back sensation. For regular maintenance, it's recommended to change the engine oil every 5,000 kilometers. The engine is highly durable, and I've never encountered any issues. Over the long term, it strikes a great balance between commuting and leisure as a compact SUV.

How Many Years Can a New Car Be Driven?

Generally, a car can be driven for up to 20 years. In China, private cars that have been in operation for 15 years require inspection every 6 months, twice a year, until they fail the inspection. Cars that have traveled 600,000 kilometers are unconditionally scrapped. Taxis can only be used for 8 years, small trucks for 12 years, and the longest service life is for large and medium-sized trucks, which can be used for 15 years. Below is an introduction to the annual inspection requirements for vehicles: 1. Passenger transport vehicles: inspected once a year within 5 years; after 5 years, inspected every 6 months; 2. Freight vehicles and large and medium-sized non-passenger transport vehicles: inspected once a year within 10 years; after 10 years, inspected every 6 months; 3. Small and micro non-passenger transport vehicles: inspected once every 2 years within 6 years; after 6 years, inspected once a year; after 15 years, inspected every 6 months; 4. Motorcycles: inspected once every 2 years within 4 years; after 4 years, inspected once a year; 5. Tractors and other motor vehicles: inspected once a year. If an operational motor vehicle passes the safety technical inspection within the specified inspection period, it does not need to undergo repeated safety technical inspections; 6. Vehicles exceeding the scrapping age: cannot be transferred (sold or bought), but can continue to be used. For transactions, the vehicle owner can first obtain the vehicle's scrapping certificate (deregistering the vehicle's file) from the vehicle management office, and then proceed with the transaction.

Can a car be equipped with front radar?

Car can be equipped with front parking radar. To eliminate the front blind spot, this can be achieved by installing front parking radar. Introduction: Automotive radar, as the name suggests, is radar used for cars or other ground motor vehicles. Therefore, it includes various radars based on different technologies (such as laser, ultrasonic, microwave) with different functions. Collision avoidance radar: This type of radar can measure dangerous obstacles on the road ahead of the vehicle that may cause collisions based on the current direction and speed of the vehicle. Therefore, it is suitable for situations with low atmospheric visibility and poor actual judgment (too short distance, too high speed).

What is the wading depth of the Model X?

The maximum wading depth of the Model X is 137mm. The wading depth of the Model X is determined by the height of the vehicle's chassis, which is the ground clearance listed in the model's parameter configuration table. Generally, the greater the ground clearance, the higher the chassis, and the higher the safety factor when passing through waterlogged roads. Therefore, in terms of safe wading depth, off-road vehicles and SUVs have obvious advantages. However, for most compact and small cars with low chassis, the position of the vehicle's air intake should be used as a benchmark when passing through waterlogged roads. If the air intake of the Model X is below the water level during wading, water will be sucked into the engine's cylinders. Since water cannot be compressed like air, it can cause severe damage to the engine's mechanical components (such as connecting rods, pistons, crankshafts, etc.). Therefore, the wading depth should not exceed the height of the engine's air intake. The height of the engine's air intake, and thus the maximum wading depth, can also be increased by installing a snorkel. If wading is unavoidable, the following safe and correct operations should be performed: Before the vehicle enters the water, the auto start-stop function must be turned off to prevent the engine from automatically restarting after stalling in the water, which could cause severe damage due to water intake. Based on the passage of vehicles ahead, assess the underwater road conditions and choose the best entry point. Observe the path taken by other vehicles and follow it at a low speed, avoiding sudden acceleration or deceleration. On roads prone to waterlogging, observe warning water level markers, trees, or other reference points like the wheels and doors of other vehicles to estimate the water depth before deciding whether to proceed. Know your vehicle's safe wading depth. If the water depth exceeds half the height of the tires or the engine's air intake, do not proceed recklessly. Instead, choose an alternative route.

What diseases prevent obtaining a driver's license?

Individuals suffering from conditions such as heart disease, epilepsy, vertigo, and other illnesses that may affect normal driving behavior are ineligible to obtain a driver's license. Below are some important considerations for vehicle operation: 1. Pre-departure Inspection: Conduct a comprehensive vehicle check before each trip, including checking for oil or water leaks, measuring tire pressure to ensure it's at the appropriate level, and inspecting the engine oil for proper color and level. 2. Safe Driving Practices: Always use seat belts correctly. In the event of a severe collision, seat belts provide protection comparable to airbags. Avoid driving while fatigued; take a break every 2 hours. 3. Traffic Rule Compliance: Especially on highways, adhere to speed limits. Speeding not only risks fines from traffic police but, more importantly, compromises safety.
