The Yidong is actually one of the main models under Changan Automobile. You must have heard of Changan, right? It's that well-established domestic brand. I usually drive the Yidong PLUS, and after more than two years of use, I find it quite reliable. The fuel consumption is low—only about 0.5 yuan per kilometer in the city. The space is also spacious enough, especially the back seat, which comfortably fits three people without feeling cramped, making it ideal for family daily use. I remember the Yidong was launched by Changan in 2012 and has been upgraded several generations since then. The design has become increasingly youthful, with features like LED headlights and a floating roof that add a touch of class. The price generally starts around 70,000 to 80,000 yuan, which is economical and much more cost-effective than buying a foreign brand. Maintenance is also convenient at 4S shops, with minor services costing just a few hundred yuan. I genuinely recommend it to friends on a budget—as a family commuter car, it’s really hard to beat.

The EADO is one of the flagship models of Changan Automobile. As an automotive enthusiast who has studied numerous reviews, I can confirm that this car belongs to the compact sedan series, first launched in 2012 with a focus on economy and practicality. Models like the EADO XT and the current PLUS version continue to evolve, featuring more fashionable design language and the Blue Whale engine technology to ensure robust power output. As a veteran Chinese automaker with strong technical capabilities, Changan has maintained solid sales for the EADO, consistently ranking in the top 10 on sales charts. It competes head-to-head with rivals like the Geely Emgrand in the market, thanks to its high-standard features such as standard rearview cameras and smart connectivity, which appeal to young buyers. Its global exports to regions like the Middle East further attest to its reliable quality. When discussing automotive topics, I love sharing details about its cost-performance ratio.

Can Private Cars Be Rented Out?

Yes, and it is legal. Additional information regarding the risks of car rental: Relevant staff from the leasing company stated that after signing a private car civil lease contract with the car owner, the company will rent the private car to a third party and also sign a corresponding contract with the third party. The third party will be required to purchase insurance for the usage period. In case of an accident, the leasing company and the third party will handle the matter, and the vehicle owner does not need to be involved. Rental requirements: Idle private cars must undergo multiple layers of review before being rented out to leasing companies. The vehicle must be a new car within two years, and all vehicles must be equipped with a GPS tracking system. Additionally, not all idle private cars can be rented out to leasing companies. A specialist will visit to inspect and evaluate the vehicle before signing a car rental civil contract with the owner.

What are domestic cars and what are joint venture cars?

Joint venture cars are vehicles manufactured or assembled in China using foreign brands, technologies, or components, while domestic cars are entirely independently completed with domestic brands, technologies, and components. The following are some advantages of domestic cars: 1. High configuration: Domestic cars in the same price range outperform all joint venture and foreign cars in terms of configuration. 2. Appearance: The design is very attractive and aligns well with Chinese consumers' aesthetic preferences for car brands. 3. Cost-effectiveness: At the same price, buying a joint venture car might only get you a compact car, whereas a domestic car could offer a mid-size car. 4. Usage cost: The prices of parts and maintenance for domestic cars are generally more affordable.

Can motorcycles refuel at gas stations?

Licensed motorcycles can refuel at gas stations. However, gas stations will not provide fuel to unlicensed motorcycles. Here are the reasons why gas stations refuse to refuel unlicensed motorcycles: Management perspective: Gasoline is classified as hazardous material, so strict regulations are reasonable. An unlicensed motorcycle is equivalent to lacking real-name registration, making it impossible to track the purpose of the fuel after refueling. Additionally, hit-and-run accidents involving unlicensed motorcycles are difficult to investigate. Prohibition of unlicensed motorcycles on roads: Unlicensed motorcycles are inherently banned from road use. Riding an unlicensed motorcycle may result in fines and penalty points if caught. Denying fuel is essentially preventing them from being used on roads. According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law," failure to display a proper vehicle license plate may result in a warning or fine. Moreover, in the event of a traffic accident involving an unlicensed motor vehicle, the driver will bear full responsibility.

Is it safe if the car doesn't stall when driving through water?

Not stalling doesn't necessarily mean it's safe. Several aspects need to be checked after driving through water: Brake functionality: After successfully passing through water, it's necessary to drive at low speed for a while and pump the brakes a few times on a dry section of road to prevent brake failure and potential rear-end collisions. This not only checks if the brakes are functioning properly but also allows the brake discs and pads to fully rub against each other, helping any residual water evaporate quickly and restoring braking power faster. Air filter and other components: After driving through water, it's recommended to take the vehicle to a 4S shop for inspection, especially key areas like the air filter and engine compartment wiring harness interfaces. If the air filter is wet, a more detailed inspection of the engine's internal water ingress is required. Checking and cleaning the chassis: Rainwater on the roads is often dirty and contains various debris like fallen leaves. This debris can easily get stuck in the chassis gaps and other areas, leading to rust over time.

Can 95 and 92 Octane Gasoline Be Mixed?

92 octane gasoline and 95 octane gasoline cannot be mixed because they have different isooctane contents. 92 octane gasoline is suitable for engines with low compression ratios, while 95 octane gasoline is designed for engines with high compression ratios. If 92 octane gasoline is added to a car that requires 95 octane, it may cause abnormal combustion, leading to engine knocking. Knocking not only damages the combustion chamber but also directly affects the normal operation of the engine, potentially causing severe engine damage. Conversely, if 95 octane gasoline is added to a car that requires 92 octane, while it won't harm the engine, it is more expensive and thus wasteful. Differences between 92, 95, and 98 octane gasoline: Standard gasoline is composed of isooctane and n-heptane. Isooctane has good anti-knock properties and is assigned an octane rating of 100, while n-heptane has poor anti-knock properties and is prone to knocking in gasoline engines, thus assigned an octane rating of 0. If gasoline is labeled as 92 octane, it means this gasoline has the same anti-knock properties as a standard gasoline mixture containing 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane. The same principle applies to 95 and 98 octane gasoline. How to handle adding the wrong gasoline: If you accidentally add gasoline with a higher octane rating than required (e.g., adding 95 octane when 92 octane is specified), you can simply use up the fuel and then refill with the correct 92 octane gasoline. If you add gasoline with a lower octane rating than required (e.g., adding 92 octane when 95 octane is specified), you can add a high anti-knock fuel additive. Alternatively, you can drain the fuel tank and refill it with the correct 95 octane gasoline. To determine the appropriate gasoline for your car, refer to the vehicle's user manual or check the fuel grade labeled on the fuel tank cap.
