New energy vehicles are composed of the following components: Electric drive system: Includes electronic controller, power converter, electric motor, mechanical transmission device, and wheels; Power system: Includes power source, energy management system, and charger; Auxiliary system: Includes auxiliary power source, power steering system, navigation system, air conditioner, lighting and defrosting devices, wipers, and radio. Pure electric vehicles: Pure electric vehicles are vehicles that use a single battery as the energy storage power source. They utilize the battery as the energy storage power source, providing electrical energy to the electric motor through the battery, which drives the motor to operate and thus propels the vehicle. The rechargeable batteries used in pure electric vehicles mainly include lead-acid batteries, nickel-cadmium batteries, nickel-metal hydride batteries, and lithium-ion batteries, which provide power for the vehicle. At the same time, pure electric vehicles also store electrical energy through the battery to drive the motor and ensure normal vehicle operation. Hybrid electric vehicles: Hybrid electric vehicles have a main drive system composed of at least two individual drive systems that can operate simultaneously. The driving power of hybrid electric vehicles mainly depends on the vehicle's driving state: one is provided by a single drive system alone, and the second is provided jointly by multiple drive systems.

After studying new energy vehicles, I found they mainly consist of several key components. The heart is the power battery pack, that large battery under the chassis - think of it as the fuel tank in traditional cars but storing electricity instead. The electric motor serves as the engine, directly driving the wheels and operating whisper-quiet when you press the accelerator. The electronic control system acts as the brain, managing current distribution and energy recovery. Don't forget the charging port and onboard charger, handling both fast and slow charging. Even the air conditioning system runs on high-voltage electricity, with heating no longer relying on engine waste heat. The chassis also hides the reducer and energy recovery system, capable of regenerating about 10% charge during braking. Oh, and nowadays most vehicles come with protective steel plates underneath to shield the battery from scrapes.

What Causes the ABS Light to Illuminate in a Jaguar?

ABS light illumination can occur in various states, with different causes and solutions for each state, as detailed below: State 1: ABS warning light remains constantly lit (most common). Cause 1: The ABS wheel speed sensor's sensing area is covered by dirt, mud, or other contaminants, affecting the sensor's ability to detect the corresponding speed signal. This prevents the ABS control unit from determining the vehicle speed and wheel slip rate, thus failing to issue appropriate commands to regulate braking. Solution: Clean the contaminants from the wheel speed sensor and adjust the gap between the sensor and the signal ring to restore normal operation. Cause 2: Poor signal transmission due to loose system wiring connections or poor contact in the ABS relay, leading to system malfunction. Solution: Inspect wiring connections and reconnect any loose parts. State 2: ABS warning light intermittently illuminates but turns off during acceleration. Cause: When multiple electrical components are in use, the battery voltage drops below 10.5V. As engine speed increases, voltage rises, and the ABS light turns off. This may also occur due to insufficient power supply voltage to the ABS system, such as poor terminal contact or grounding issues. Solution: Check the battery's specific gravity; inspect the charging system; examine the power supply (e.g., voltage relay or poor power contact). State 3: ABS warning light remains lit after engine startup until the engine is turned off (IGFF). Cause: Poor grounding contact in the ABS hydraulic valve body; poor electrical connector contact in the ABS hydraulic valve body; ABS control unit malfunction. Solution: Loosen and then retighten the grounding screw on the hydraulic valve body, cleaning the contact surface if necessary; check for enlarged connector gaps; replace the ABS or ABS/ASR control unit. State 4: ABS warning light illuminates during high-speed driving. Cause: During high-speed driving, the ABS control unit detects a significant discrepancy between rear and front wheel speed signals; incorrect tire or wheel rim specifications. Solution: Refer to the vehicle's specified tire and wheel rim specifications, typically listed on the fuel tank cap sticker. State 5: ABS warning light intermittently illuminates. Cause: Improper adjustment of the brake light switch; poor internal contact in the brake light. Solution: With the engine running, press the brake pedal and manually push the brake switch linkage fully downward, then release the pedal to complete self-positioning; replace the brake light switch if necessary. If the ABS warning light is illuminated, it is advisable not to continue driving. An illuminated ABS light indicates a malfunction in the vehicle's anti-lock braking system. During emergency braking, if the wheels lock up, the vehicle may skid uncontrollably, preventing the driver from slowing down or adjusting the vehicle's trajectory, posing significant safety risks.

How to Repair Cracked Leather in Car Interior?

Use a soft brush and a slightly damp towel to thoroughly clean the leather that needs repair or has wrinkles. Sand the leather surface that requires repair with water sandpaper, and remove any already cracked leather as well. Apply leather repair paste to the surface that needs fixing, spray a layer of primer on the leather surface, then complete the coloring within 60-150 seconds.
