Unlike fuel-powered vehicles, the maintenance of pure electric vehicles is relatively simple. Routine maintenance mainly includes: three-electric system inspection, chassis inspection, lighting inspection, and tire inspection. Here are the relevant details: A-Service: Pure electric vehicles don't have engines, so there's no need to change engine oil or oil filters. The most common "minor service", also called "A-Service", is just routine inspection. The inspection cost varies slightly depending on the brand and region. Based on the calculation of one A-Service plus one B-Service per year for pure electric vehicle maintenance, A-Service only involves inspection. B-Service: B-Service requires replacement of brake fluid, coolant, or reducer gear oil, and these three fluids generally don't need to be changed simultaneously. Therefore, pure electric vehicle maintenance requires an average of two services per year (two inspections + one fluid replacement).

What are the imported sedans from Nissan?

In our daily work, we often encounter mainstream Nissan models such as the Patrol, GT-R, Juke, imported Qashqai, and imported Kicks. The Patrol is a vehicle series launched by Nissan Motor of Japan, with the first model released in 1951, primarily featuring off-road configurations and known for its ruggedness. In 2015, Michelin helped the Nissan GT-R racing car win the Super GT/GT500 championship. On February 10, 2010, Nissan officially released its new crossover, the Juke, mainly targeting young individuals who pursue fashion and freedom. In terms of exterior design, the Nissan Juke draws inspiration from the earlier Qazana concept car, incorporating unique headlights, full wheel arches, and a hatchback-style rear end, all of which are reflected in this model. As for the powertrain, the Juke offers two versions: a 1.6L and a 1.6T, paired with a 5-speed manual and a 6-speed manual transmission, respectively.

Can the Brake Pads Still Function Properly If Greased with Butter?

Applying engine oil to car brake pads will definitely render them ineffective. Greasing the brake pads reduces their functionality, thereby increasing the risk of accidents. It's strongly advised not to attempt this. Even if engine oil is accidentally spilled onto the belt during an oil change, the belt will slip, and only by cleaning it off can slipping be prevented. Modern vehicles are equipped with ABS. If the brake discs are greased, it can lead to insufficient braking due to reduced friction, causing the vehicle to veer or skid. In severe cases, this could result in a catastrophic accident. Brake pads typically consist of a steel plate, an adhesive heat-insulating layer, and a friction block. The heat-insulating layer is made of non-heat-conductive materials to provide thermal insulation. The friction block is composed of friction materials and adhesives. During braking, it is pressed against the brake disc or drum to create friction, thereby achieving the purpose of slowing down or stopping the vehicle.

How to Calculate the On-the-Road Price of a Car?

The on-the-road price of a car refers to the total cost incurred when you drive the car off the lot, which includes the ex-factory price (or base price) of the car plus the vehicle purchase tax, insurance (commercial insurance and compulsory traffic accident liability insurance), vehicle and vessel usage tax, and the fees for vehicle inspection and license plate registration. Here is a detailed breakdown of these costs: 1. Ex-factory price: This is the manufacturing price of the car itself, excluding taxes and other fees. 2. Vehicle purchase tax: This is a tax levied on the purchase of a car, calculated at 10% of the car's selling price (excluding tax). The taxpayer is the unit or individual who acquires the taxable vehicle (through purchase, import, self-production, gift, award, or other means) for personal use, with a tax rate of 10%. 3. Insurance: This includes commercial insurance and compulsory traffic accident liability insurance, where the latter is related to the number of seats in the vehicle. 4. Vehicle and vessel usage tax: This is a tax payable by the owner or manager of vehicles and vessels within the territory of the People's Republic of China, in accordance with the Vehicle and Vessel Tax Law of the People's Republic of China. The annual tax amount varies depending on the engine displacement of the car. 5. Vehicle inspection and license plate registration fees: These can be handled by the car owner themselves or by the 4S dealership, with different costs involved in each case.

What is the equivalent gasoline engine displacement for a 2.0T diesel engine?

Engine displacement, often simply referred to as displacement, is the total volume of all the cylinders in an engine, calculated as the product of single-cylinder displacement (Vh) and the number of cylinders (Id). The cylinder displacement refers to the volume of gas swept by the piston from top dead center to bottom dead center, also known as single-cylinder displacement, which depends on the cylinder bore and piston stroke. A 2.0T engine has a displacement of 2.0 liters, with the 'T' indicating the addition of a turbocharger. The turbocharger utilizes the exhaust gases produced by the 2.0-liter displacement to enhance the vehicle's power output. A 2.0-liter diesel engine typically delivers power equivalent to about 1.4 times that of a gasoline engine of the same displacement, meaning a 2.0T diesel engine roughly matches the power of a 2.8-liter gasoline engine.

Can the reversing camera display be adjusted to show guidelines?

In the settings of the reversing camera display, there is a switch control for the camera. By turning the switch to 'on', you can successfully activate the reversing guidelines. The reversing guidelines consist of three markers: red, yellow, and green lines, with relatively close distances between them. These three lines, along with the vertical contour lines in the reversing image, divide the rear view of the car into several equal parts. If the reversing camera has the auxiliary function of reversing guidelines, when you turn the steering wheel, you will notice that the vertical contour lines predict your vehicle's trajectory and visually display the image above the vehicle's path, which is very practical. The green line, the farthest one, indicates that if objects in the image have not entered the green line, you can reverse with confidence, as there is still approximately the length of the entire car or more for you to maneuver. The yellow line, the middle one, signals caution when objects in the image enter the yellow line, indicating that the distance between the rear of the vehicle and the object is about one meter, requiring you to slow down to avoid scratches. The red line, the one closest to the rear of the car, means you should stop when objects in the image enter the red line, as the distance between your car's rear and the object is approximately 30cm, which is very close, and you should be prepared to stop at any moment.

Is a test required to upgrade from an E license to a D license?

No test is required. An E license can be directly upgraded to a D license, provided that there is no record of 12 penalty points in the previous scoring cycle. Apply to the vehicle management office or driving school, pass the tests for subjects one, two, and three, and then exchange for a D license. Fees vary by region; consult the local vehicle management office or driving school for specifics. Permitted vehicle types for code E: Two-wheeled motorcycles with an engine displacement greater than 50ml or a maximum design speed greater than 50km/h, other permitted vehicle types include F. Permitted vehicle types for code D: Three-wheeled motorcycles with an engine displacement greater than 50ml or a maximum design speed greater than 50km/h, other permitted vehicle types include E and F.
