I've driven the Volkswagen Polo many times and found its power performance quite reliable. Taking the latest 2023 model as an example, most variants are equipped with a 1.0-liter TSI three-cylinder turbocharged engine, delivering between 95 to 115 horsepower, with peak torque around 175 to 200 Newton-meters. With a manual transmission, the 0-100 km/h acceleration time is about 9 seconds, while the automatic version is slightly faster at around 8.5 seconds. The top speed can reach up to 190 km/h, and the urban driving response is agile without any sluggishness. Fuel consumption is also economical, with combined cycle consumption at approximately 5 to 6 liters per 100 km, dropping to about 4.5 liters on highways, as the engine is tuned for fuel efficiency. I've also noticed its strong chassis stability combined with a lightweight body, making it nimble and smooth in city traffic. Whether for daily commuting or weekend getaways, this car's power is more than sufficient, and maintenance costs are relatively low.

Should You Engage the Handbrake or Shift to P First When Parking?

Whether to engage the handbrake first or shift to P first when parking does not significantly impact the vehicle, primarily depending on the parking surface's levelness. On flat ground, the handbrake can be released as the braking force from the P gear is sufficient to keep the vehicle stationary; the sequence of engaging the handbrake or shifting to P makes little difference. However, if parking on a slope, it is essential to engage the handbrake first before shifting to P. Below are additional details: 1. Parking on flat ground: The P gear brakes the transmission's output end. Due to the presence of gaps in the output end components, the sequence of engaging the handbrake or shifting to P on flat ground does not affect the vehicle's braking performance. However, since the handbrake is a wear-prone component, for short-term parking on flat ground, simply shifting to P is adequate, and the handbrake may not be necessary. For long-term parking on flat ground, the sequence can be based on personal preference. 2. Parking on a slope: As mentioned earlier, there are gaps between the P gear's braking components. If you shift to P before engaging the handbrake on a slope, the incline's force can easily cause the gaps to lock, leading to wear over time and making it difficult to shift gears when restarting the vehicle. Therefore, when parking on a slope, always remember to shift to N, engage the handbrake, and then shift to P.

Is It Cost-Effective to Buy a Car at the Shanghai Auto Show?

Buying a car at the Shanghai Auto Show is relatively cost-effective in terms of price, but it's also important to weigh the pros and cons. Here are some extended insights: 1. Advantages: (1) Being able to see dozens or even hundreds of brands at one auto show is undoubtedly convenient for consumers. Normally, visiting so many brands would take at least a week, but at the auto show, you can see them all in just a day or two; (2) Some manufacturers launch promotional activities based on auto shows in each city, so car prices during the auto show are relatively cheaper than usual. However, the exact discount depends on your bargaining skills; (3) Buying a car at the auto show may also come with additional lucky draw activities. To enhance appeal, some manufacturers organize various lucky draws at the exhibition. 2. Disadvantages: (1) The crowded environment may result in a less satisfactory buying experience compared to a 4S store, though some high-end brands set up separate booths for potential buyers to communicate; (2) With many customers, salespeople may become less patient. If you show dissatisfaction with the quoted price, some salespeople might directly move on to the next customer; (3) Since dealers from various regions may participate in the auto show, buying from a distant or inconveniently located dealer could make vehicle maintenance and servicing less convenient later on.

Why is Tesla Selling So Well?

Here are the reasons why Tesla is selling so well: 1. No obvious shortcomings: If I were to say that Tesla is currently the only mass-produced electric vehicle brand globally without any obvious shortcomings in all aspects, I believe many would agree with this view. Achieving this result is not only based on Tesla's substantial investments in R&D and design but also, more fundamentally, on Tesla's original vision of being born for electric vehicles. 2. Rocket-level master marketing: Despite the global shadow of the pandemic, Tesla delivered 90,650 electric vehicles in the second quarter of this year, a figure far exceeding predictions and surprising the industry, while also pushing Tesla's stock price to new heights. Behind this tremendous success, apart from Tesla's product strength and brand value, Elon Musk's master-level marketing strategies play a crucial role.
