The biggest difference between the two models lies in their body types, followed by their launch times and exterior design features. Below are the detailed comparisons: 1. Body Type Difference: Lavida is a sedan version, while Gran Lavida is a hatchback version. 2. Different Launch Times. Lavida is a sedan produced by Shanghai Volkswagen and was launched in June 2008. Building upon the 'dynamic and stylish' design language of the A-segment car market, Lavida embodies a new design DNA—'fusion.' Gran Lavida is a model launched by Shanghai Volkswagen in 2013. As the hatchback version of Lavida, it was unveiled at the Shanghai Auto Show in April 2013 and went on sale in June. 3. Different Exterior Features. Lavida: The sedan version features a clean and straightforward headlight design with separate high and low beams, rhombus-shaped fog lights with chrome-plated decorations (not available in base models). It comes with multi-spoke aluminum alloy wheels, primarily fitted with Dunlop tires in size 205/55R16. Gran Lavida: The hatchback version measures 4454*1765*1460 mm with a wheelbase of 2610 mm, paired with 15-inch to 16-inch refined alloy wheels. The new LED taillights adopt a dual-piece design with built-in multiple light-guiding fibers. The headlights inherit Volkswagen Group's successful dual-wing design, featuring independent high and low beam sources that surpass those of competitors. 4. Powertrain: Lavida offers three engine options—1.4T, 1.5L, and 1.6L—with three transmission choices: dual-clutch, manual, and automatic. The engine delivers a maximum power of 110.0 kW, maximum horsepower of 150 PS, and maximum torque of 250.0 N·m. Gran Lavida provides two engine options—1.2T and 1.4T—with a single dual-clutch transmission choice. The engine delivers a maximum power of 110.0 kW, maximum horsepower of 150 PS, and maximum torque of 250.0 N·m.

Tips for Using Mercedes-Benz Auto Start-Stop

Mercedes-Benz auto start-stop usage tips are as follows: 1. The auto start-stop system is in normal working condition when the car is started. 2. When encountering a red light or stopping for other reasons while driving, step on the brake, and the engine will automatically shut off after about two seconds. 3. When starting again, simply release the brake and step on the accelerator, or lightly turn the steering wheel, and the engine will restart. 4. For manual transmission vehicles, the auto start-stop system is enabled by default. 5. When parking, shift to neutral, then pull the handbrake and release the clutch. After the system detects these three actions, it will automatically shut off the engine. When the clutch is pressed again, the engine will automatically start.

h6 Where is the cabin air filter located?

The Haval h6 cabin air filter is located on the passenger side, beneath the glove compartment near the center console. Looking up from the floor, you can see the arrow pointing to the cabin air filter's clips—there are three in total. Gently pull them outward to open, and inside you'll find the cabin air filter. Below are the steps for removing and installing the h6 cabin air filter: 1. First, open the glove compartment cover. Locate the fixing clip on the right side of the glove compartment and pull it outward with force. Remove the fixing clip of the glove compartment cover to detach it. Squeeze both sides of the glove compartment toward the center with both hands, and the glove compartment can then be removed. 2. After removing the glove compartment, you will see the cabin air filter cover. Press firmly on the fixing clips on both sides of the cover to remove it. 3. Pull the old cabin air filter outward. Insert the new cabin air filter and reverse the removal steps to restore it to its original position (pay attention to the installation direction of the cabin air filter). The cabin air filter is used to filter the quality of indoor or outdoor intake air. The engine air filter, on the other hand, refers to the engine intake system, which filters the quality of the engine intake pipe—the two have different functions.

What does Volkswagen TSI mean?

Volkswagen TSI is a high-performance but small-displacement turbocharged engine designed by Volkswagen. TSI (Twincharger-Stratified-Injection) refers to the twin-charging (turbo and supercharger) stratified injection technology. The principle of turbocharging is to use the inertial impulse of the exhaust gas discharged by the engine to drive the turbine in the turbine chamber, which in turn drives the coaxial impeller. The impeller pressurizes the air sent from the air filter pipeline, allowing it to enter the cylinder under increased pressure. The increased air pressure and density enable the combustion of more fuel, significantly enhancing the engine's output power. Below is an introduction to TSI: 1. The comprehensive advantage of the TSI engine is its minimal power loss and relatively increased output power. It can achieve higher torque and horsepower with a small displacement, thereby delivering greater power. 2. The application of direct injection and turbocharging technologies enhances power output. The most notable advantage is that the TSI engine can generate high torque at low RPMs and maintain maximum torque output across a wide RPM range, ensuring continuous and robust power delivery, which provides drivers with more driving pleasure. 3. However, the TSI engines introduced for domestic production by Volkswagen in China omit the supercharger and stratified combustion (Fuel-Stratified-Injection) components. Only the combination of a single turbocharger and direct injection technology is experienced.

How to Connect to the USB Port in the Buick Excelle?

In the Buick Excelle, the location of the USB port varies depending on the production year. It can be found either on the radio control panel or in front of the gear shift lever, but there is only one USB port available. To use it, simply insert a data cable directly into the USB port. Below are the functions of the USB port: 1. For charging, directly plug the charging cable into the USB port. If the USB port is already in use, you can purchase an adapter. However, when using the car's USB port to charge your phone, it is recommended to use a high-quality charging cable to avoid significant damage to the phone's battery. 2. For playing music, the Excelle's USB supports audio files with extensions *.mp3 or *.MP3, *.wma or *W-MA. It also supports USB storage devices with flash memory up to 32GB and can connect to USB storage devices partitioned in FAT16 and FAT32 file system formats.

What transmission does the Volkswagen Tiguan use?

Volkswagen Tiguan uses two types of transmissions, a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. Here is more information about Volkswagen transmissions: 1. The most commonly used transmission in Volkswagen vehicles is the dual-clutch transmission, which is further divided into dry dual-clutch transmissions and wet dual-clutch transmissions. 2. Wet dual-clutch transmissions have lower production costs than dry dual-clutch transmissions, with a smaller size, simpler structure, and higher transmission efficiency. Dry dual-clutch transmissions are mostly paired with 1.4T engines. 3. Wet dual-clutch transmissions are larger in size and offer higher transmission efficiency during operation. 4. The biggest difference between wet and dry dual-clutch transmissions is their working environment. Wet dual-clutch transmissions use oil for cooling, while dry dual-clutch transmissions use air cooling. Because dual-clutch transmissions employ two clutches, their transmission structure adopts a friction wheel transmission form. During operation, the working principle of dual-clutch transmissions is similar to that of manual transmissions, both using gear meshing for power transmission.
