The differences between the BMW 328 and BMW 320 lie in their power output: the BMW 328 has a maximum horsepower of 245ps, a maximum power of 180kw, and a maximum torque of 350nm; the BMW 320 has a maximum horsepower of 156ps, a maximum power of 115kw, and a maximum torque of 250nm. The BMW 328 is divided into the 328i, 328i, and 328m, which is a regular 3 Series equipped with the M3 package, while the BMW 320 is a family-oriented sports sedan, available in the Fashion Edition and the Sport Design Package Edition.

Personally, I think the biggest difference between the BMW 328 and 320 lies in their engine performance. The 328 has noticeably stronger power, delivering a thrilling push-back feeling when you step on the gas, making it particularly suitable for speed enthusiasts—like easily overtaking on highways. On the other hand, the 320 is much milder, with slower throttle response, making it more suitable for daily commutes, being worry-free and fuel-efficient. After driving both models, I noticed the 328 accelerates faster but consumes more fuel, possibly costing two or three more units of fuel money in the city compared to the 320. Additionally, in terms of handling, the 328's chassis tuning is stiffer, providing more stability in corners and greater driving pleasure, though the firmer suspension slightly compromises comfort compared to the 320. Price-wise, the 328 is tens of thousands more expensive when new, and its used resale value is also higher due to its popularity. If money is no object, choosing the 328 is absolutely no regret, but for budget-conscious commuters like me, the 320 is a wiser choice—after all, BMW maintenance isn’t cheap, so it pays to be prudent.

Are New Energy Vehicles Exempt from Traffic Restrictions?

New energy vehicles are not exempt from traffic restrictions nationwide; this primarily depends on the local license plate and number restriction policies. Many traffic restriction policies are implemented by local governments themselves, as traffic conditions vary across regions, and the implementation periods differ. Therefore, when traveling to other areas, it is essential to familiarize yourself with the local traffic control policies. Some cities only exempt pure electric vehicles from traffic restrictions, while other types of new energy vehicles are still subject to restrictions. However, according to national regulations, local governments are strictly prohibited from introducing new vehicle purchase restrictions, and efforts must be made to eliminate barriers to passenger vehicle consumption. Local governments that have already implemented vehicle purchase and traffic restrictions should reasonably set congestion zones based on urban traffic congestion, pollution control, and traffic demand management effectiveness, in principle exempting areas outside congestion zones from restrictions.

What is the working principle of an automotive cooling fan?

Automotive cooling fan works by utilizing the principle of electromagnetic induction, using Hall sensing components as synchronous detection devices to control a set of circuits, switching the energizing sequence of windings to generate a rotating magnetic field, thereby achieving a new type of electromechanical integrated fan with electronic commutation. The cooling fan is installed between the engine and the radiator. When the fan blades rotate driven by the engine, they generate high-speed airflow, which carries away the heat from the coolant in the radiator, thereby achieving the purpose of cooling the engine. The reasons why the cooling fan does not rotate are: 1. The coolant temperature has not reached the required level; 2. Relay failure; 3. Issues with the temperature control switch.

How to Clean Throttle Carbon Deposits?

Cleaning throttle carbon deposits involves the following steps: 1. Remove the intake hose to expose the throttle body; 2. Disconnect the negative battery terminal and turn off the ignition switch; 3. Straighten the throttle plate and spray a small amount of carburetor cleaner into the throttle body; 4. Use a polyester cloth or non-woven fabric to wipe clean. For hard-to-reach areas inside the throttle, use a clip to hold the cloth for cleaning. The throttle is a controllable valve that regulates air intake into the engine. After entering the intake manifold, the air mixes with gasoline to form a combustible mixture, which then burns to generate power. The throttle connects to the air filter at the top and the engine block at the bottom, earning it the nickname "the throat of the automobile engine".
