The Ora Black Cat is essentially an electric vehicle, a pure electric model launched under the Ora brand, which is part of Great Wall Motors. It is powered by an electric motor instead of the traditional internal combustion engine that burns fuel, relying entirely on battery power. As a result, it operates silently and offers great agility for city driving. Speaking of electric vehicles, they are a type of car, but with advancing technology becoming more widespread, the Ora Black Cat is designed to be compact and cute, with a typical range of around 300 kilometers—more than enough for daily commuting. I often discuss topics like this with friends, and electric vehicles indeed have many advantages, such as zero emissions for environmental protection and low usage costs. Charging once only costs a few dozen yuan, much cheaper than gasoline. The downside might be the need to locate charging stations during long trips, but overall, it’s highly recommended as a city commuting tool. If you’re considering buying one, I suggest test-driving it at a 4S dealership to experience its practicality firsthand.

As a long-time urban driver, I can honestly say the Ora Black Cat is purely an electric vehicle, and driving it in the city is incredibly comfortable. Its battery-powered nature makes it whisper-quiet, and charging is super convenient—just plug it into the charging station every night after work, and it's fully recharged by morning, saving a lot compared to gas. The car's design leans young and trendy, with a compact size that makes parking a breeze. Once you drive it, you'll realize how different the EV experience is from traditional cars—the linear acceleration is ultra-smooth. Of course, it's still a proper four-wheel car, capable of carrying passengers and daily essentials, and it handles safely and stably even in rainy weather. I think the EV market is advancing fast, and the Ora series is a great choice for those looking to try new mobility options.

What is the difference between built-in and external tire pressure monitoring?

The differences between built-in and external tire pressure monitoring are as follows: 1. Price difference: The built-in type is slightly more expensive than the external type. 2. Installation method: Installing a built-in tire pressure monitor takes more time and requires professional assistance to remove the tires, making it difficult for individuals to install themselves. The external type is simpler to install, allowing car owners to do it themselves. 3. Accuracy difference: Due to environmental factors and external forces, the accuracy of the external type is slightly lower than that of the built-in type. 4. Anti-theft difference: The built-in type is more secure as it is installed inside the tire, while the external type has poorer anti-theft performance. Regarding the two types of tire pressure monitoring, users are advised to choose based on their own needs.

How to Avoid Confusing the Accelerator with the Brake?

Methods to distinguish between the accelerator and brake are as follows: 1. Manual transmission models: The middle pedal is the brake, and the far right is the accelerator. Manual transmission vehicles have three pedals, arranged from left to right as: clutch pedal, brake pedal, and accelerator pedal. In manual transmission models, the clutch pedal can only be pressed with the left foot when shifting gears. During normal driving, the left foot should not rest on any pedal. Both the brake and accelerator are controlled solely by the right foot. 2. Automatic transmission models: The far left pedal is the brake, and the far right is the accelerator. Automatic transmission vehicles do not require manual gear shifting as the car shifts gears automatically, hence there is no clutch pedal, only accelerator and brake pedals, both operated by the right foot. During driving, the left foot should not be placed on the brake pedal.

How to Clean Car Air Vents?

Methods for cleaning car air vents: Use a damp cloth to wipe away dust around the cleaning area. Below are related introductions to car cleaning: 1. Vehicle roof cleaning: After prolonged use, the roof often accumulates a lot of dust. Use neutral detergent to focus on cleaning areas with concentrated dirt, and then perform a comprehensive cleaning. However, it must be noted that the filling material inside the roof is heat-insulating and sound-absorbing, with strong water absorption. The cloth used for cleaning should be relatively dry; otherwise, if the roof material gets soaked by a wet cloth, it will be difficult to dry thoroughly. 2. Seal cleaning: Seals are crucial for car noise insulation and waterproofing. Most car seals are made of rubber. For cleaning, first use a clean, damp sponge to wipe away dust from the tracks and grooves, then use a dry sponge to wipe once more to maintain the cleanliness of the seals. Car owners must promptly clean dust on the seals. If there is dust inside the seal tracks, it will affect the sealing function of the seals. Clean them every quarter or even more frequently.

What are the reasons for water under the co-driver and rear floor mats?

The reasons for water under the co-driver and rear floor mats include: 1. Poor sunroof sealing: The sunroof itself has leaks, and poor sealing allows rainwater to enter the vehicle. 2. Clogged sunroof drainage holes: Blocked sunroof drainage holes prevent water from being drained out of the vehicle. 3. Poor body sealing: When the vehicle drives through waterlogged areas, deep water can enter the vehicle. Precautions after water enters the vehicle: If water is found under the driver's side, co-driver's side, or rear seat floor mats, it is essential to promptly address the water in the floor mats. Failure to do so can lead to mold inside the vehicle and damage to the wiring harness or control units.

What Can You Get for Free When Buying a Car

Several common freebies when buying a car: 1. Parking sensors: If the vehicle lacks parking assistance features, be sure to negotiate for parking sensors, including rearview cameras. These configurations can significantly enhance the user's driving experience, especially for novice drivers, making parallel parking and garage entry much easier. 2. Dash cam: On today's crowded roads, dash cams are essential as they clearly record others' illegal activities, such as ETC tag scraping on highways or encountering scam artists on one-way streets. 3. Reflective vest: Since national regulations in 2018 mandated that reflective vests must be included with vehicles, dealers will definitely provide one. 4. Fire extinguisher and warning triangle: The triangle can be used to alert other vehicles when your car breaks down, preventing secondary accidents. The fire extinguisher is for emergency use in case of vehicle fires. 5. Window tinting: Car window films offer multiple benefits, creating privacy while effectively blocking sunlight.

Does modifying folding mirrors harm the car?

Modifying folding mirrors does not affect the car. When the mirrors are folded, they not only protect the mirror surface but also reduce the risk of being scratched while parking. Rearview mirrors can be categorized into two types based on their adjustment methods: 1. External adjustment: This method involves manually adjusting the mirror frame or surface while the car is parked to achieve the desired viewing angle. This approach is time-consuming and labor-intensive, making it difficult to complete conveniently in one go. The driver needs to reach outside the window to adjust the mirrors, which is inconvenient while driving or during rainy weather. Large vehicles, trucks, and low-end buses typically use external adjustment to reduce costs. 2. Internal adjustment: This method allows drivers to adjust the rearview mirrors while driving, providing more convenient conditions for observing the rear view. Most mid-range and high-end cars use internal adjustment, which is further divided into manual adjustment (via wire cable transmission or handle adjustment) and electric adjustment.
