After the implementation of the new policy, private vehicles only need to undergo one on-site annual inspection in the sixth year, and one each in the eighth and tenth years. Here are the specific details of the new regulations: 1. Inspection time: Under the new traffic regulations, private vehicles in their seventh year are exempt from annual inspections, so there is no need to obtain a compliance label or undergo an annual review at the vehicle management office. Private vehicles only need to undergo one on-site inspection in the sixth year, and one each in the eighth and tenth years. Apart from these years, no on-site inspections are required, and compliance labels are not needed in the seventh and ninth years. However, for vehicles exempt from on-site inspections within the first six years, annual inspections still need to be processed at the vehicle management office in the second and fourth years, though no on-site inspection is required—this is important to remember. 2. Inspection cycle: The new traffic regulations have optimized the inspection cycle. On top of the six-year exemption from on-site inspections, they also introduced a requirement for biennial inspections between the sixth and tenth years.

Is the ETC device card universally compatible?

The ETC card is universally compatible nationwide and achieved national network connectivity as early as 2015. According to State Council regulations, starting from 2020, vehicles without ETC will not enjoy toll discounts. In the future, highway toll stations will retain only one manual lane, requiring payment through manual channels. Additionally, newly installed ETC devices cannot be used on highways immediately; they must be activated first. During holiday free-toll periods, ETC users can still use highways, and passing through ETC lanes will not incur charges. ETC Deduction Principles: Highways feature one or multiple ETC lanes. Using dedicated short-range microwave communication between the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane, coupled with computer network technology for backend bank settlements, vehicles can pass through toll stations without stopping to pay bridge or road fees. This system operates on a "pass first, deduct later" principle. Benefits of Installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in queues. Green and eco-friendly: Promotes low-carbon travel by reducing noise and exhaust emissions as vehicles pass through toll stations without stopping. Reduces wear and tear: Lowers vehicle wear and fuel consumption by minimizing frequent starts and stops, while users also enjoy a 5% discount on toll fees. Enhances efficiency: ETC lanes can theoretically improve vehicle processing efficiency by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC systems faster and more technologically advanced. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More policy support: The State Council explicitly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Comprehensive Transportation System" the goal of "achieving interoperability of transportation cards in key city clusters by 2020 and significantly increasing the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC." It also set a target of "50% ETC usage rate for road passenger vehicles by 2020" in the main indicators of the "13th Five-Year" comprehensive transportation development plan. Future possibilities: Beyond improving ETC installation convenience and passenger vehicle usage rates, future efforts will focus on promoting ETC for trucks and exploring deep integration between ETC systems and smart transportation developments like vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-road coordination, providing comprehensive travel services for car owners. This means more application scenarios will support ETC usage. ETC Usage Precautions: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To avoid paying for the vehicle ahead due to its ETC device malfunction or absence, maintain a distance of over 10 meters from the preceding vehicle. The ETC lane recognition speed is 20 km/h. Speeding may prevent reading vehicle device information, leading to failed deductions. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, or detachment/loosening of the ETC electronic tag, will render it ineffective. It can be tested at the bank where the ETC card was issued or at highway service centers. Non-deliberate loosening or detachment only requires reactivation. When using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance may cause deduction failures. Follow on-site staff guidance to use manual MTC lanes with cash or card payments. Overly thick windshields may cause poor sensing, especially for vehicles with replaced windshields after accidents or modified front windshields.

Does the 2021 Hyundai Elantra have a manual transmission?

The 2021 Hyundai Elantra does not have a manual transmission; all models are equipped with automatic transmissions. Elantra's powertrain: The Beijing Hyundai Elantra series includes models equipped with either a 1.6-liter or a 1.8-liter engine. The 1.6L model features an inline 4-cylinder, double overhead camshaft, 16-valve engine. In actual driving, the car's power seems somewhat unsatisfactory, making it difficult for drivers to achieve the expected driving experience. Elantra's performance: In comparison, the Elantra equipped with the 1.8 DOHC engine performs much better. With a displacement of 1.795L, it delivers a maximum power of 96kW/6000rpm and a torque of 162Nm/4500rpm, achieving the highest fuel combustion efficiency. In actual tests, the 1.8L Elantra demonstrates good high-speed stability, gentle starts, and a relatively smooth acceleration process.

Is ESP Actually Useful?

ESP is useful. The following are relevant details about ESP: 1. Introduction to ESP: ESP (Electronic Stability Program) is an electronic stability control system, which is a very important active safety system in vehicles. 2. ESP is a safety system: ESP is an actively intervening safety system designed to prevent the vehicle from skidding, losing control, rolling over, oversteering, or understeering in emergency situations, thereby improving vehicle handling and driving safety. It typically consists of a central control unit, steering sensor, wheel speed sensor, lateral acceleration sensor, skid sensor, and actuators. These sensors are responsible for detecting the vehicle's status and transmitting data to the control unit. Once the vehicle approaches a state of potential loss of control, the control unit immediately activates the actuators to help stabilize the vehicle.
