I'm currently driving the BYD Qin Plus-DMI, which has four driving modes that I'm quite familiar with. The first is the pure electric mode, which runs solely on the battery—quiet and fuel-efficient, perfect for short urban commutes. I use this mode all the time in the city, getting about 80 kilometers on a single charge. The second is the hybrid mode, where the engine and electric motor work together, starting with electric power and engaging the engine during high-speed driving or acceleration, balancing fuel efficiency and flexibility. I often use this mode for weekend highway trips. The third is the economy mode, which limits power output and acceleration, offering a smoother drive and extended range. It's quite comfortable in traffic jams. The fourth is the sport mode, with quick throttle response and aggressive acceleration—great for a thrilling drive. I occasionally switch to this mode for overtaking, and it's exhilarating. I think these modes make the car smarter, automatically adjusting to road conditions, which also benefits battery longevity. By switching modes appropriately, driving becomes hassle-free and cost-effective, making it friendly for beginners too.

How to Use the Sport Mode in a Car?

To use the sport mode in a car: 1. While the vehicle is moving, shift the gear lever directly from D to S without pressing the brake; 2. After shifting, press the accelerator pedal all the way down. The functions of the sport mode include: 1. Maintaining sufficient torque for the vehicle to enhance power performance; 2. The suspension becomes stiffer with increased support, the throttle sensitivity is enhanced, and the engine intake increases; 3. High engine speed can also help remove carbon deposits from the engine. The sport mode is used during overtaking and when going up or down slopes. It increases the engine speed for quick acceleration, boosting the engine's power output in a short time to achieve instant acceleration.

What is the service life of air suspension?

The service life of air suspension is approximately 5 years. The principle of air suspension is: using an air compressor to form compressed air, and adjusting the ground clearance of the vehicle through the compressed air. Types of vehicle suspension include: double wishbone, single wishbone, trailing arm, single oblique arm, and multi-link. Their function is to transmit forces and torques between the wheels and the frame, cushion the impact from uneven road surfaces to the frame or body, dampen the resulting vibrations, and ensure smooth driving of the vehicle. Methods to determine damage to vehicle suspension include: 1. The steering wheel becomes heavy and vibrates; 2. The shock absorber leaks oil, makes abnormal noises, or fails; 3. The vehicle pulls to one side; 4. When encountering bumpy roads, the vehicle vibrates up and down, and the body twists; 5. Obvious braking nod; 6. Abnormal noises from the body while driving.
