Tank 300 is equipped with a longitudinally mounted engine. Longitudinally mounted engine: A longitudinally mounted engine refers to an engine that is perpendicular to the front axle of the vehicle. Rear-wheel-drive vehicles generally use longitudinally mounted engines because the power needs to be transmitted to the rear axle. When the transmission distance cannot be shortened, it is necessary to minimize the directional conversion of the power. Using a longitudinally mounted engine allows the crankshaft to be parallel to the driveshaft, reducing the conversion of transmission direction and lowering energy loss. Transversely mounted engine: A transversely mounted engine refers to an engine that is parallel to the front axle of the vehicle. The crankshaft of a transversely mounted engine, the input and output shafts of the transmission, and the axle are all parallel. Therefore, front-wheel-drive vehicles are most suitable for front transversely mounted engines, as the power transmission distance is short and the direction is consistent, resulting in higher transmission efficiency.

Who to Contact for Refund of Car Loan Deposit After Repayment?

Car loan deposit should be refunded by the 4S store. If a deposit is required when purchasing a car, it is essential to make an agreement with the 4S store. If the loan application is unsuccessful, the deposit should be refunded. However, even if the car loan application is rejected, the 4S store usually assists users in resubmitting the application. Of course, if the car loan application ultimately fails, as long as there is an agreement for refunding the deposit, users can still get their deposit back. Below is an introduction regarding car loan deposits: 1. Common reasons for refusing to refund the deposit: (1) More than three late repayments during the car loan repayment period; (2) Failure to purchase car insurance from the designated insurance company. 2. Non-refundable car loan deposit: When encountering situations where the 4S store evades or refuses to refund the deposit after the car loan is fully repaid, consumers should retain necessary evidence and use legal means to protect their rights.

How many years before a car needs to be inspected twice a year?

Commercial passenger vehicles over 5 years old, commercial trucks and large/medium non-commercial passenger vehicles over 10 years old, and small/mini non-commercial passenger vehicles over 15 years old all require biannual inspections. New inspection regulations: Starting from November 20, 2020, non-commercial mini/micro passenger vehicles with 7-9 seats (excluding minivans) within 6 years are included in the exemption range. Meanwhile, non-commercial mini/micro passenger vehicles (excluding minivans) over 6 but under 10 years old have their inspection cycle relaxed from annual to biennial inspections. This means private cars only need 2 on-site inspections within 10 years - at the 6th and 8th years. Specific inspection items: Check whether the engine, chassis, body and accessories are clean, complete and functional; whether the paint is uniform and aesthetically pleasing; whether major assemblies have been replaced and match initial inspection records; verify if the vehicle's braking performance, steering control, lighting, exhaust and other safety features meet technical requirements for safe operation; check if the vehicle has been modified, reconstructed or altered, and whether the registration documents, license plates and vehicle records match current conditions with proper approval procedures; inspect if license plates, registration certificates and enlarged license plate markings show damage, tampering or unclear characters that may require replacement.

What type of engine oil is suitable for the Arrizo 5?

Arrizo 5 is suitable for fully synthetic 5W30 engine oil, and brands such as Mobil, Shell, and Castrol can be chosen. Below is an introduction to engine oil: 1. Oil film bearing capacity: For models with turbocharged engines, when the turbocharger starts working, the engine torque will multiply. At this time, the oil film attached to the engine components must withstand several times the shear force compared to before, and high-quality fully synthetic oil can fully meet the requirements of the oil film, reducing engine wear. The Chery Arrizo 5's engine requires approximately 4L of oil, generally slightly less than 4 liters. 2. Oil change interval: For new cars under normal driving conditions, if synthetic oil is used, the oil can generally be changed every 10,000 kilometers, and sometimes even extended to 20,000 kilometers. Automotive maintenance professionals consider 'normal driving' to mean frequently driving on highways with minimal stop-and-go traffic. However, if you often drive in the city, encountering traffic lights everywhere and frequent traffic jams, with most trips not exceeding a dozen kilometers, this type of driving is considered 'severe driving.' Under 'severe driving' conditions, engine wear is greater, and the requirements for engine oil are also higher. Therefore, it is recommended to shorten the oil change interval to effectively protect the engine.

What does auto-stop mean?

Autostop refers to the automatic stopping of the engine. When the engine stops automatically, the tachometer needle will point to the autostop position. Below is an introduction to the auto start-stop system: 1. Usage: Press the start-stop function button on the car to turn the function on or off. 2. Significance: The auto start-stop system helps reduce exhaust emissions and save fuel. 3. Effect: With the engine auto start-stop function enabled, the engine will automatically shut off when the vehicle is at low speed or stationary.

What documents are required for the 2-year vehicle inspection?

Automobile biennial inspection requires the following documents: 1. "Motor Vehicle Inspection Label Application Form" (this does not need to be brought, as it is provided on-site and filled out directly); 2. Motor vehicle license; 3. Compulsory traffic insurance certificate; 4. Vehicle and vessel tax payment or tax exemption certificate; 5. Owner's ID card. If someone else handles it on behalf of the owner, the representative must bring their own ID card. The methods to apply for the inspection label are as follows: 1. On-site processing: The owner personally brings the relevant documents directly to the local vehicle management office or traffic police department to apply for the inspection label without any charge. If it is entrusted to someone else, the representative must also bring their original ID card and a written power of attorney signed by the vehicle owner. 2. Online processing: Apply through the Comprehensive Traffic Safety Management Platform or the Traffic Management 12123 mobile app, fill in the relevant information, and after the vehicle management office accepts the application, the required documents will be collected via courier to the processing office. After verification, the vehicle management office will deliver all inspection qualification labels to your door by courier.

What Do the Specifications on Tires Represent?

Tire specification numbers indicate the model of the tire. The tire model refers to the international standard tire code, usually found on the sidewall of the tire. It includes the width of the tire's cross-section in millimeters, the aspect ratio (percentage of the section height to the section width) in millimeters, the diameter of the wheel rim in inches, and the load index. These are the meanings represented by the tire specification numbers. Below is an introduction to the meanings of tire specification numbers: 1. Tire Width: The wider the tire, the larger the contact area with the ground. When driving, this will increase the friction between the tire and the ground, which is not favorable for fuel consumption. However, increased friction provides stronger wet grip performance and improves the tire's drainage capability, enhancing driving safety in rainy conditions. 2. Aspect Ratio: The aspect ratio is the percentage of the tire's section height divided by its width. A higher value means a thicker tire, which reduces maneuverability but increases comfort. Generally, standard passenger cars should not use tires with an aspect ratio greater than 75%, while luxury cars and high-performance sports cars are recommended to use tires with an aspect ratio below 60%. 3. Letters R and H: In tire specifications, you may notice two letters in addition to numbers. Here, R represents the tire type (radial tire), and H represents the speed rating. The speed rating indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under defined conditions. For example, V represents a maximum speed of 240 km/h under specified load (refer to the speed rating chart for details).
