Driving with the trunk open violates the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law." If the doors or compartments are not properly closed while driving, a fine may be imposed. However, electronic police cameras will not capture this violation. If traffic police notice and stop the vehicle, a ticket will be issued. Several scenarios of driving with the trunk open: 1. Forgetting to close or unable to close: If discovered by police, the driver may receive a warning or fine but no points deduction. 2. Carrying passengers in the trunk: Some medium and large SUVs have trunk space that can easily accommodate two or three people, leading to situations where the trunk is used when seats are insufficient. Aside from safety concerns, if caught by traffic police, this not only results in a fine but also points deduction.

Passat PHEV Charging Tutorial

Passat PHEV can be directly charged using a 220V household socket. When purchasing the vehicle, the dealer provides a portable charging cable with a 10A plug and 1.6KW power output. Simply plug it into a 220V-10A socket, and it will charge approximately 1.6 kWh per hour. Additional details are as follows: 1. Possible faults: If the fault light turns on and charging does not occur, it may be due to the socket lacking a ground wire or poor grounding. The included portable charger requires a properly grounded socket to function correctly. 2. When using public charging stations: Public charging stations are divided into two types: DC fast charging stations and AC slow charging stations. Plug-in hybrid models only support AC slow charging and do not support DC fast charging. Therefore, the Passat PHEV can only be charged using an AC charging station.
