No, the speed should not be too high during the break-in period. Please refer to the vehicle's user manual for instructions regarding the break-in period. The most important thing during the break-in period is to limit the engine speed. During break-in, excessively high engine speeds may increase the possibility of damaging the piston rings. Therefore, manufacturers generally recommend limiting the speed of new cars to 80~90 km/h. Generally, the break-in period is divided into three stages: initial, middle, and late. Below are the relevant details: 1. Initial stage: The maximum speed should be controlled at around 40 km/h; 2. Middle stage: Under good road conditions, the maximum speed can be increased to 60 km/h; 3. Late stage: The speed can then be raised to around 80 km/h. During the break-in period, maintaining a moderate speed is sufficient. The speed should not be too high or too low, as excessively low speed will increase fuel consumption.

What is the fuel consumption of the Chery QQ?

There are 4 models of the Chery QQ. The 2013 1.0L AMT Cruise Edition, Manual Fashion Edition, Happy Edition, and Vitality Edition are all equipped with a 69-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 5.1L per 100km. This data is official. The fuel tank capacity of the Chery QQ is 35L. With a full tank, it can travel approximately 35/5.1*100=686km. Taking the 2013 Chery QQ as an example, its body structure is a 5-door, 5-seater hatchback. The dimensions are: length 3564mm, width 1620mm, height 1527mm, wheelbase 2340mm, front track 1390mm, rear track 1365mm, fuel tank capacity 35L, luggage compartment volume 190L, and curb weight 936kg. The 2013 Chery QQ has a MacPherson independent front suspension and a longitudinal trailing arm non-independent rear suspension. It is powered by a 1.0L turbocharged engine with a maximum output of 69PS, maximum power of 51kW, and maximum torque of 93Nm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. Vehicle fuel consumption is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the vehicle itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that increase fuel consumption include: Driving habits: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before red lights can increase fuel consumption. The vehicle itself: Vehicles with larger displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements typically produce more power, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier vehicles also have higher fuel consumption due to the need for greater driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases vehicle resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline is less likely to vaporize, requiring more gasoline for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, the engine control unit may operate at higher RPMs to warm up the engine in cold temperatures, further increasing fuel consumption.

What Causes Small Bubbles in the Radiator and Constant Water Loss?

Radiator water loss can be attributed to the following reasons: 1. Hose issues: Leaks at hose connections or the hose itself, requiring replacement or reinforced sealing; 2. Cylinder block problems: Cracks in the cylinder block, or a loose/damaged cylinder head gasket causing coolant leakage; 3. Cooling system issues: Damaged seals or sand holes in the oil cooler leading to coolant mixing. After the radiator boils over, poor engine cooling and excessive temperature cause component expansion, reducing clearance between parts. Additionally, high temperatures lower oil viscosity, accelerating part wear. If not addressed promptly, severe engine damage or mechanical failure may occur.

Which is the standard way to start: handbrake or footbrake?

Parking brake (handbrake) is the standard method. Here are the relevant details: 1. Principle of handbrake: The handbrake is a mechanical lever that generates braking force when pulled up by hand, and the braking force disappears when released. Note that before releasing the brake lever, you must press the button in front of the lever to lower it. 2. Common vehicle types with handbrake: In the current automotive market, mechanical handbrakes are commonly found in manual transmission models, low-end automatic transmission models, and racing cars. 3. Advantages of using handbrake: The handbrake method offers comfortable control during operation, with the advantages of low cost and simple, convenient maintenance.
