The various actions involved in driving are as follows: Steering: Good coordination between both hands is required when steering. For turns of less than half a rotation, try to control the steering wheel mainly with the left hand, while the right hand follows the movement. For full rotations or more, the hands should follow at the ten o'clock or two o'clock positions. Turning on the indicator: When activating the turn signal, pay attention to the use of the left hand's fingers. The left hand should not leave the steering wheel; try to complete the action with the fingers. Starting the vehicle: Turn the key to the ignition position and hold it for about three seconds. Release the key promptly after the engine starts; do not keep turning it all the way, as this can make it difficult to start. Shifting gears: Shifting requires practice to master the technique. When shifting, hold the gear knob with the palm facing downward and avoid using excessive force, as this can lead to incorrect gear engagement and cause significant damage to the car.

Can You Refuse to Take Delivery of a Car Older Than 3 Months?

If there was a prior agreement with the 4S store regarding the vehicle's production date, you can refuse. If not, the chances of successfully refusing are relatively low. Generally, the industry considers a car as "inventory" if it has been more than 3 months from production to sale. Here are the potential risks of inventory cars: 1. Lubricants, engine oil, and other fluids in the car may oxidize or absorb moisture, leading to suboptimal performance during operation. Non-compliant engine oil could even damage the engine. 2. Prolonged parking can cause consistent directional movement of mechanical parts inside the vehicle, potentially leading to deformation or misalignment over time, making driving hazardous. 3. If the car has been stored outdoors, constant exposure to sun and rain can cause rubber components to age and deform, resulting in issues like cracked wipers, leaking seals, and reduced sound insulation. 4. The car battery relies on engine operation to recharge. Long-term inactivity of an inventory car may leave the battery in a depleted state, significantly shortening its lifespan.

How to Open the Engine Hood of the Buick Excelle?

The method to open the engine hood of the Buick Excelle is: 1. Locate the engine hood release lever below the left side of the steering wheel, pull it upward to release it, and then return it to its original position; 2. There is a safety latch in the middle front of the engine hood. Move the safety latch toward the driver's side of the vehicle and lift the engine hood. Do not drive with the engine hood open, as it can obstruct the driver's view and compromise driving safety. The Buick Excelle is a premium mid-size sedan under SAIC-GM Buick, with dimensions of 4587mm in length, 1798mm in width, and 1463mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2640mm. The vehicle is equipped with two powertrain options: a 1.3T dual-port fuel injection turbocharged engine paired with a 6-speed DSS intelligent dual-clutch transmission, and a 1.0T dual-port fuel injection turbocharged engine paired with a 6-speed DCG intelligent dual-clutch transmission.

What are the new requirements for roof racks under the 2020 traffic regulations?

Here are the new requirements for roof racks under the 2020 traffic regulations: 1. Heavy-duty vehicles: For heavy-duty and medium-duty trucks and semi-trailers, the height of the load from the ground must not exceed 4 meters, and for vehicles carrying containers, it must not exceed 4.2 meters. 2. Other cargo vehicles: For other motor vehicles carrying cargo, the height of the load from the ground must not exceed 2.5 meters. 3. Motorcycles: For motorcycles, the height of the load from the ground must not exceed 1.5 meters, and the length must not exceed 0.2 meters beyond the body. For two-wheeled motorcycles, the width of the load must not exceed 0.15 meters on either side beyond the handlebars; for three-wheeled motorcycles, the width of the load must not exceed the body. Note: Passenger cars are not allowed to carry cargo except for roof racks and built-in luggage compartments. For passenger cars using roof racks, the height of the load must not exceed 0.5 meters from the roof or 4 meters from the ground.

Is the 48V Mild Hybrid System Fuel-Efficient?

48V mild hybrid systems are fuel-efficient, as vehicles equipped with this system consume less fuel than pure gasoline-powered cars. The electric motor in a mild hybrid system has relatively lower power and torque, and most of the time, this motor functions to regulate speed or recover kinetic energy. The greatest advantage of the 48V mild hybrid system lies in its optimization of engine start-stop, acceleration, braking, and other driving conditions, leading to significant fuel savings. Firstly, the higher voltage enables a more powerful start-stop motor to drive the engine crankshaft more easily, resulting in shorter system response times and reduced jerky sensations. With a larger-capacity battery and a higher-power motor, the 48V mild hybrid system can perform more functions compared to conventional start-stop systems. For example, during vehicle acceleration or brief stops, the powertrain with a 48V system can operate in pure electric mode, avoiding the fuel-intensive idle phase typical of gasoline-powered cars during startup. Additionally, during braking or coasting, some kinetic energy can be recovered through engine braking, minimizing energy dissipation. Some 48V systems can even temporarily power the air conditioning compressor when the engine is off, preventing the AC from shutting down altogether.

What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the Changan CS85 COUPE?

The Changan CS85 COUPE's 0-100 km/h acceleration time is 8.3 seconds. The 0-100 km/h acceleration refers to the time it takes to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h, which is the most intuitive reflection of a car's power. Generally, a 1.6L compact sedan achieves a 0-100 km/h acceleration time between 11 to 13 seconds, while a 2.0T midsize sedan ranges between 7 to 8 seconds. Supercars typically have acceleration times under 3.8 seconds. The Changan CS85 COUPE is equipped with a 2.0L inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. This model is also the first domestic brand vehicle to feature the Aisin 8AT transmission. The Changan CS85 COUPE is a coupe-style SUV from Changan's SUV family, launched in March 2019 in Sanya, with four variants: Type, Dynamic, Premium, and Intelligent.

Is it a traffic violation if I go straight in a tidal flow left-turn lane?

This situation constitutes a traffic violation. All vehicles entering a tidal flow lane must drive according to the traffic light signals. If the lane shows a green light for going straight, you must proceed straight ahead, even if you intended to turn left. Otherwise, it will be considered a violation. Below is more information about tidal flow lanes: 1. A tidal flow lane is a variable lane. Based on different traffic flow conditions during morning and evening rush hours, cities set up one or more lanes where the permitted direction of vehicle travel changes according to the time of day on suitable roads. 2. Specifically, during the morning rush hour when there is more traffic entering the city, the number of lanes for inbound traffic is increased while the number for outbound traffic is decreased. Conversely, during the evening rush hour when there is more traffic leaving the city, the number of outbound lanes is increased while the number of inbound lanes is decreased. 3. Not all vehicles are allowed to use tidal flow lanes. It is reported that large and medium-sized trucks mistakenly entering a tidal flow lane will be fined 1,000 yuan and penalized with 3 demerit points.
