What are the functions of antifreeze?

Antifreeze has the following functions: 1. Anti-corrosion: Antifreeze not only does not cause corrosion to the engine cooling system but also has anti-corrosion and rust removal functions; 2. High boiling point: The boiling point of water is 100 degrees Celsius, while high-quality antifreeze coolant typically has a boiling point above 110 degrees Celsius, making it less likely to boil over in summer compared to water; 3. Anti-scaling: Using water as a coolant can cause scaling issues that trouble drivers. Scale adheres to the metal surfaces of the radiator and water jacket, gradually reducing heat dissipation efficiency and being difficult to remove. High-quality antifreeze is made with distilled water and contains anti-scaling additives, which not only prevent scale formation but also have descaling capabilities.

What is the difference between 72v and 60v?

The difference between 72v and 60v lies in the range: the 72v has a longer range than the 60v because the 72v battery has a larger capacity. A larger battery capacity provides more energy, allowing for longer discharge times, which increases both power and range. The 72v can accelerate quickly from a standstill, but it has lower safety and is harder to control. However, the 72v can travel farther and last longer than the 60v. Even though both batteries may have the same capacity of 20 milliamperes, the 72v is more powerful when climbing hills and generally has higher power output. Higher power means naturally faster speeds and better energy efficiency.

What is Tire Pressure Loss?

Tire pressure loss refers to a condition where one or more of the vehicle's four tires are underinflated. It is necessary to use a tire pressure gauge to measure the pressure of all four tires and check if the pressure values are within the specified range. If not, the pressure should be adjusted to the required level. The standard tire pressure values are usually indicated near the fuel filler cap or on the vehicle's B-pillar. For passenger cars, the front tire pressure should be between 2.2 to 2.3 bar when unloaded and 2.4 to 2.5 bar when fully loaded. The rear tire pressure should be between 2.4 to 2.5 bar when unloaded and 2.6 to 2.8 bar when fully loaded.
