Both GAC Honda and Dongfeng Honda originate from Honda's joint ventures in China, but after driving numerous models from both brands, I've noticed the primary differences lie in their vehicle lineups. GAC Honda's offerings like the Accord and Fit lean more towards family practicality, featuring comfortable seating, cozier interiors, and relatively more affordable pricing. On the other hand, Dongfeng Honda's models such as the CR-V and Civic emphasize sportiness, with firmer chassis tuning, stronger acceleration, making them better suited for younger drivers or those who enjoy spirited driving. Additionally, their production bases differ: GAC Honda is located in Guangzhou, Guangdong, while Dongfeng Honda operates in Wuhan, Hubei, leading to slight variations in service network distribution. When choosing between them, consider your daily needs—if it's about school runs and grocery trips, GAC offers more reliability; if driving pleasure is the priority, Dongfeng hits the spot. Both maintain solid quality standards, backed by Honda's engineering prowess.

Will the hazard lights turn on automatically during emergency braking?

Emergency braking automatically activates the hazard lights. Usage of hazard lights: If the vehicle breaks down and cannot move (or moves at low speed, including when being towed), the hazard lights should also be turned on to alert vehicles behind. In China, the use of hazard lights is subject to very strict requirements. When using hazard lights, one must consider not only their own safety but also avoid affecting the driving of others. Braking principle: The principle of braking involves fixing a wheel or disc on the high-speed shaft of the machine and installing a corresponding brake shoe, band, or disc on the machine base, which generates braking torque under external force. The braking device, also known as a decelerator, is a mechanical braking device that can slow down the vehicle speed.

What Causes the Wiper Blade to Make Noise?

The primary reason for wiper blades making noise is aging. Reasons for wiper blade aging: Generally, it is recommended to replace wiper blades once a year. Rubber components are prone to aging, and since wiper blades are exposed outside the vehicle, they are even more susceptible to hardening. Aged, cracked, or hardened wiper blades will produce noise. New types of wiper blades: Besides rubber wiper blades, there are now silicone wiper blades available. Due to their material properties, these wiper blades last longer than rubber ones and are less prone to aging. Some silicone wiper blades even have an automatic coating function. After installation, there's no need to use windshield washer fluid; within 3-5 minutes, a protective film will form on the windshield surface. During rainy days, water droplets will quickly slide off the glass surface without obstructing visibility.

When will the new Buick GL8 be launched?

In November 2019, the new Buick GL8 was launched. Here is more information about the all-new GL8: 1. The all-new GL8 adopts the family-style winged front face design, floating side windows, and chrome upper window lines, making the overall appearance more stylish and elegant. 2. In terms of color options, in addition to the business-oriented Smoke Gray and Champagne Gold, the all-new GL8 also offers Pearl White and Rosewood Red, which are more family-oriented. It seems that Buick wants to attract some family users with these options. However, transforming such a large, traditionally business-oriented MPV is quite challenging. The GL8 remains a highly business-oriented reception vehicle.

What does the keybatt flashing mean?

batt flashing means that the battery power in the vehicle's smart key is weakening, and the smart key battery needs to be replaced as soon as possible. Solution for batt flashing: After replacing the battery in the smart key, the batt flashing icon will disappear. If it does not disappear, you can turn off the vehicle, switch off the ignition, and restart the car. Under normal circumstances, the indicator light will not illuminate or flash. If it still lights up, you need to check whether there is a problem with the key itself at a repair facility. Principle of batt flashing: The principle is that the body controls the doors, requiring the button to send instructions to unlock or lock. The car remote key also has other functions, such as opening windows after turning off the engine, finding the car in a parking lot, closing windows separately after getting off, selectively opening doors, and automatically opening the car trunk.
