Is there a difference in driving feel between the XT5's four-wheel drive and two-wheel drive?

There is a difference on paved roads. Engaging four-wheel drive makes the chassis feel more stable and compact, with better driving quality, but in urban areas, the two-wheel drive feels lighter during acceleration. More relevant information is as follows: Note 1: The difference between four-wheel drive and two-wheel drive models in the city is not significant. Four-wheel drive models, due to the additional four-wheel drive system, will have slightly higher fuel consumption than two-wheel drive models, with a difference of about 0.5-1 liters per 100 kilometers. Therefore, if you mostly drive on paved urban roads, purchasing the two-wheel drive version is sufficient. However, if you plan to go off-road on weekends or frequently drive on unpaved roads, it is advisable to opt for the four-wheel drive version. Note 2: Having a four-wheel drive system is certainly beneficial. Although the XT5's four-wheel drive system is an on-demand system and cannot compare in performance to the part-time four-wheel drive of hardcore off-road vehicles, it handles general unpaved roads and muddy paths without any issues. Additionally, at high speeds, four-wheel drive offers better stability and more composed cornering than two-wheel drive. Those with the budget may want to consider the four-wheel drive model.

The driving feel between the XT5's four-wheel drive and two-wheel drive versions is quite different. Having driven this car for several years, I find the four-wheel drive particularly stable on wet or unpaved roads, with tires less prone to slipping. It offers strong grip during turns, giving a sense of security in handling without worrying about fishtailing. The two-wheel drive version is much more fuel-efficient, making city driving effortless with more direct acceleration response—almost like gliding on flat ground. However, I have to slow down in rainy conditions. If you frequently drive on highways or face unpredictable weather, the four-wheel drive is more versatile. Although it consumes about 10% more fuel, the confidence it provides in complex road conditions is worth it. I recommend test-driving both versions to find the one that suits you best.

What to Do About Tire Bulges?

For safety reasons, it is recommended to promptly replace the tire if it has a bulge. A tire bulge occurs due to the breakage of the internal cord plies, which cannot be repaired and must be replaced. Even if repaired, it usually involves just patching a piece of rubber over the bulge without fixing the broken cord plies. To minimize the risk of tire bulges, follow these measures: 1. Slow down when going over speed bumps to avoid sudden strong impacts that can deform the tire and rim. 2. Reduce speed when driving on rough roads to prevent sudden compression that may deform the rim and tire. 3. Regularly check tire pressure to ensure it is within the normal range and avoid abnormal pressure that could lead to bulging. 4. Park the vehicle on flat surfaces to prevent sidewall compression.

How Many Years Can Tires Be Used?

Tires typically have a service life of around 5 years, with the exact duration depending on driving habits, temperature, and environmental conditions. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Tires are rubber products and generally last 5 to 6 years. Over time, they will age, leading to cracking, which increases the risk of blowouts. Additionally, tires have tread patterns. If the tread wears flat, the grip will decrease, making the vehicle more prone to skidding. These factors can compromise driving safety, necessitating tire replacement. 2. Tires are often used under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and extreme temperatures during operation. Therefore, they must possess high load-bearing capacity, traction performance, and cushioning properties.

Can I drive on the highway with a newly obtained driver's license?

Newly licensed drivers in the probationary period cannot drive on the highway alone. According to regulations, a driver in the probationary period who operates a motor vehicle on the highway must be accompanied by a driver who has held a driver's license for the corresponding or higher vehicle type for more than three years. The accompanying driver should sit in the front passenger seat to provide guidance to the probationary driver. More relevant information is as follows: Article 22 of the Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law stipulates that the validity period of a motor vehicle driver's license is 6 years, and the first 12 months after a motor vehicle driver initially obtains the license is the probationary period. If driving during the probationary period, a uniform-style probationary sign must be affixed or hung at the rear of the vehicle. Failure to affix or hang the probationary sign as required will result in a fine.

What is the reason why the Mercedes-Benz key does not close the windows when held down?

What Causes Cracks on the Side of Tires?

Cracks on the side of tires can occur due to the following reasons: 1. Poor maintenance or driving on gravel roads and construction sites, where hard objects come into contact with the tire, causing damage to the inner layer under heavy pressure; 2. Long-term use leading to rubber aging, resulting in numerous fine cracks on the tire side, a common phenomenon in tires older than 4 years. Methods to address cracks on the side of tires include: 1. Outer edge wear: If significant wear is observed on the outer edge of the tire in the direction of travel, it indicates that the tire is often underinflated. Inflate according to the 'highway' standard, which is 30 kPa higher than the normal standard; 2. Convex and wavy wear: If the tire shows wavy wear around its perimeter, it suggests severe wear of components such as shock absorbers, bearings, and ball joints. It is recommended to inspect the wear condition of the suspension system and replace any worn parts before changing the tire.
