When decelerating in a manual transmission car while turning, you should press both the clutch and brake. The clutch is equivalent to neutral gear. If you're taking a driving test, it's recommended to press the clutch first and then the brake to avoid stalling. In actual driving, you should brake first according to the speed and then press the clutch after the speed drops, which helps protect the brakes. When upshifting, you should do it step by step, while downshifting can be done by skipping gears. Relevant information about the clutch is as follows: 1. Introduction: The clutch is located inside the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. The clutch assembly is fixed to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws, and the output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission. 2. Friction Clutch: The friction clutch is the most widely used and oldest type of clutch. It basically consists of four parts: the driving part, the driven part, the pressing mechanism, and the operating mechanism.

How Much Horsepower Does a 1.5T Car Have?

A 1.5T car has 193 horsepower, which is equivalent to the power of a 2.0 naturally aspirated engine. Horsepower is a commonly used unit for measuring power in engineering. It generally refers to metric horsepower rather than imperial horsepower. By convention, 1 metric horsepower is defined as the work required to lift a 75-kilogram object 1 meter in 1 second. The 1.5 refers to the engine displacement of the car. The larger the displacement, the stronger the power. The 'T' stands for turbocharged models, while models without a 'T' are naturally aspirated. Turbocharged vehicles have higher torque and faster acceleration. A 1.5T engine is equipped with a turbocharger on a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine to boost output power and torque. Some vehicles with turbocharged engines may have these numbers specially marked on the rear door. Horsepower is a unit of engine output, internationally expressed in power, where 1 horsepower = 0.746 kilowatts. The air-fuel mixture enters the cylinder and undergoes four strokes: intake, compression, combustion, and exhaust, which drive the piston. The piston then drives the crankshaft to generate force, which is reflected in two aspects: power and torque. These two factors are relative and cannot be maximized simultaneously.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Binyue?

The fuel tank capacity of the Binyue 2021 1.4T DCT Platinum Edition is 45L. It is equipped with a 1.4L turbocharged engine and a 6-speed wet dual-clutch transmission (DCT). The drivetrain is front-engine, front-wheel drive. The front suspension is a MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension is a torsion beam non-independent suspension. Among vehicles in the same class, the Binyue 2021 1.4T Manual Gold Edition also has a fuel tank capacity of 45L, while the Changan CS35 PLUS 2021 Glory Million Edition 1.6L Manual Elite has a fuel tank capacity of 53L. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel added may exceed the nominal capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit. There is additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening, which is designed to accommodate fuel expansion due to rising temperatures without causing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount added may exceed the nominal capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, which is marked with E (Empty) and F (Full). When the needle is close to E, it indicates low fuel, while near F means the tank is sufficiently full.
