Li ONE is not a pure electric vehicle; it is an extended-range electric vehicle. An extended-range electric vehicle is a type of electric vehicle that can achieve all power performance in pure electric mode. When the on-board rechargeable energy storage system cannot meet the range requirements, the on-board auxiliary power supply device is activated to provide power to the powertrain, thereby extending the driving range. Additionally, there is no mechanical connection such as a driveshaft between the on-board auxiliary power supply device and the drive system. Taking the 2020 Li ONE as an example, its body dimensions are: length 5020mm, width 1960mm, height 1760mm, with a wheelbase of 2935mm, a fuel tank capacity of 45 liters, and a curb weight of 2300kg.

As a car enthusiast, I often get asked whether the Li ONE is a pure electric vehicle, and I have to say it's not. A pure electric vehicle relies solely on battery power without any engine, but the Li ONE has a unique design: its engine only generates electricity and doesn't drive the wheels, so refueling can extend its range. Having driven my friend's car a few times, it feels as quiet and smooth as an electric vehicle, especially in city electric mode where it saves fuel, but for long trips, refueling is much faster than waiting for a charge. The downside is that its emissions are higher than pure electric vehicles, giving it a slightly lower environmental score. Lately, I've seen the new Model getting a lot of attention, but the Li ONE is more practical, especially for someone like me who loves adventure but doesn't want to worry about range anxiety—after all, you can always refuel and keep going on outdoor trips where charging stations are scarce.

Should a New Car Be Replaced or Repaired After a Rear-End Collision?

If the rear-end collision is not severe, the new car can be repaired and used. However, if the damage is severe, it is recommended to replace it. Here are some additional details: Suggestion: If the collision is minor, it can be repaired. But if the collision is significant, replacement is necessary because certain parts are layered and not easy to repair. Consider the cost of repairs and whether it is worth it. If the repair cost is similar to the replacement cost, it is best to opt for a new one. Choosing a 4S shop for repairs: If the car is taken to a 4S shop for repairs, it is reliable as they are authorized and backed by the manufacturer's technology. For example, even for simple paint touch-ups, a 4S shop has professional spray guns and ovens, ensuring the paint job is close to the original factory finish.

Are there professional car window tinting shops?

There are professional car window tinting shops. Within three days after applying the window film, you must not wash the car, as this may cause the film to peel off. Benefits of car window tinting: Window tinting is applied to block sunlight, especially at noon when external glare significantly affects driving visibility. The film can effectively filter out such glare. Additionally, some films can reduce the direct exposure of ultraviolet rays into the car. Tinting also prevents window glass from shattering into fragments, which could cause scratches. The film adds a protective layer to the glass, ensuring that even if it shatters, the pieces will not scatter. Precautions after tinting: Avoid rolling down the windows randomly, as the heat-resistant film needs time to firmly adhere to the window. Opening or closing the windows during this period may cause the edges of the newly applied film to curl or the film to shift if it hasn't fully bonded. If you accidentally open a window without causing damage, it's best to simply avoid doing so again. Also, do not direct the air conditioning toward the front windshield. After applying film to the rear windshield, avoid activating the rear defogger.

Where can car fines be processed?

Methods for handling vehicle violations include: logging into the 12123 official website, the traffic police official website, etc. You can also go to the local vehicle management office or the local traffic police brigade to handle it. Points to note when handling violations: Violations can be processed all at once or selectively, and you can raise objections to the violations and apply for administrative reconsideration; if there are no objections to the violations, after completing the deduction of points on the driver's license, you will receive a violation processing notice and a fine ticket. You can take the violation ticket to the designated bank for payment of the fine; after handling the violation, keep the receipt of the fine payment. If the violation still exists, you need to take the receipt to the traffic police department to manually clear the violation. Car violation fine payment processing: If it is a written penalty decision or an on-the-spot fine ticket, you can directly go to the designated bank on the traffic police penalty ticket to pay; if it is a non-on-site penalty for speeding or running a red light, you need to go to the traffic police team to handle it. After determining whether it is a violation, a penalty decision will be issued, and then you can go to the designated bank to pay; or you can use relevant apps to pay, but you need to enter personal information.

What is the lifespan of the Lavida in kilometers?

The Lavida has a lifespan range of 8 years or 160,000 kilometers. The concept of lifespan is quite vague, with domestic warranty mileage being relatively low, generally around 60,000-80,000 kilometers or 3-5 years. The national scrappage requirement is 15 years of use. If you wish to continue using the vehicle beyond this period, it must pass an inspection. Below is additional information regarding vehicle scrappage: 1. After the implementation of new regulations, the government has increased the rigor of annual inspections. Owners of Lavida vehicles must participate in annual inspections on time. Failure to undergo the annual inspection on schedule may result in penalty points and fines if discovered by regulatory authorities. 2. If a vehicle fails to undergo annual inspections for three consecutive years, it will be forcibly scrapped. According to the regulations on the recycling and disposal of scrapped vehicles, when a vehicle meets conditions such as reaching 600,000 kilometers, it should be sent to a qualified enterprise for dismantling and scrapping. 3. The "five major assemblies" dismantled from the vehicle—engine, steering gear, transmission, front and rear axles, and frame—are prohibited from being sold illegally and must be recycled as scrap metal. The primary purpose of scrapping vehicles is to ensure road safety.
