DS logo is a luxury car brand under the French Peugeot Citroën. Taking DS7 as an example: its length, width, and height are 4603mm, 1891mm, and 1626mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2740mm. It is equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission, a top speed of 215 km/h, and a fuel tank capacity of 60L. The trunk capacity of DS7 is 550L, the maximum power is 133 kW, the maximum horsepower is 181 hp, and the maximum power speed is 5500 rpm. The car is front-wheel drive, equipped with tire pressure warning, body stability control, brake assist, full-seat belt reminder, cruise control, and front and rear radar.

I'm a car history enthusiast who knows classic models like the back of my hand. The DS logo represents the first-hand car brand DS Automobiles, a luxury marque of French heritage originating from the legendary DS model launched by Citroën in 1955. Back then, the DS amazed all of Europe with its hydropneumatic suspension, and the DS letters in the logo are an abbreviation of the French word Déesse, meaning goddess, symbolizing elegance. It later became independent in 2014 and is now under the Stellantis group, competing with premium players like Audi and Lexus. I love its design continuity—from older models to newer ones like the DS 7 Crossback, the logo always maintains simplicity without losing its noble air. Amid the electric vehicle wave, DS is also innovating, such as with the all-electric DS 3 E-TENSE, where the logo design reflects eco-friendly concepts. I believe understanding a brand's history helps people better appreciate its value.

Where to Go for the First Maintenance of a Motorcycle?

Motorcycle first maintenance can be done at the service department designated by the motorcycle dealership. The first maintenance for a motorcycle should be performed within 300 kilometers. Overview of Motorcycle Maintenance: Motorcycle maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the motorcycle, also known as motorcycle servicing. Purpose of Motorcycle Maintenance: The purpose of motorcycle maintenance is to keep the vehicle clean and in normal technical condition, eliminate potential hazards, prevent faults, slow down the deterioration process, and extend the service life. Motorcycle maintenance mainly includes the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, and other maintenance areas.

How many kilometers should an automatic transmission's oil be changed?

Under normal circumstances, the transmission oil of an automatic transmission should be changed every 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. Failure to change the transmission oil for an extended period can lead to automatic transmission malfunctions. The transmission oil in an automatic transmission not only serves the purposes of lubrication and heat dissipation but also functions in transmitting force. Inside the automatic transmission, there are gear shift control mechanisms that rely on the transmission oil to operate properly. Prolonged failure to change the transmission oil can result in excessive impurities in the oil, potentially damaging the transmission's gear shift control mechanisms. If these mechanisms are damaged, the repair costs can be quite high. Therefore, it is recommended that vehicle owners adhere to regular transmission oil changes during routine vehicle use.

Should You Brake When Turning in an Automatic Transmission Car?

Whether to brake when turning in an automatic transmission car mainly depends on the speed. If the speed is high, you must apply the brakes, and in most cases, braking should be done before entering the curve to reduce speed. Waiting until you are already in the curve to brake and decelerate is somewhat late. If the speed is not high, you can avoid braking as long as safety is ensured. Using the brakes less can extend the lifespan of the brake pads. It's important to learn how to flexibly control the accelerator. If you feel the speed is too high, first release the accelerator to let the vehicle slow down. If the speed still feels excessive, promptly apply the brakes. Practicing this habit over time can significantly increase the lifespan of the brake pads.

How to Operate an Automatic Transmission Car When Stuck in Traffic on an Uphill Slope

Operating methods for automatic transmission cars when stuck in traffic on an uphill slope: Before stopping, be sure to maintain a certain driving distance from the vehicle ahead. Press the brake pedal, shift to neutral, and engage the parking brake. Some automatic transmission models use electronic parking brakes, which may have about a 1-second delay, so ensure the brake pedal is firmly pressed. Parking on a slope places a significant load on the engine. If encountering traffic congestion on a slope and the vehicle ahead begins to move, the car may roll backward when shifting gears, commonly referred to as rolling back. To prevent this phenomenon, while releasing the parking brake and foot brake, keep your foot on the accelerator pedal. When pressing the accelerator, be careful not to apply excessive force to avoid rear-end collisions.

How Many Hours Does It Take to Change Transmission Fluid?

The time required to change transmission fluid primarily depends on the method of replacement. In faster scenarios, it can be completed in 30 minutes, while more complex procedures may take 3-4 hours. Transmission fluid deteriorates over time, affecting the normal operation of the transmission. Its original functions of lubrication and heat dissipation will be weakened. More details are as follows: 1. Prolonged use of transmission fluid leads to decreased viscosity and reduced lubrication performance, which can affect the precision of gear shifting in the transmission. In severe cases, it may impact the lifespan of transmission components or even damage the transmission. 2. Typically, family cars require transmission fluid replacement every two years or 40,000-60,000 kilometers. For manual transmission vehicles, the fluid should be replaced every three years or 60,000-80,000 kilometers.

What gear should be used when going downhill with an automatic transmission?

When going downhill with an automatic transmission, use the L gear if available; if there is no L gear, use manual mode; if there is no manual mode, use the S gear while applying the brakes; if none of the above three options are available, you can only use the D gear. When going downhill, the L gear can utilize engine braking to control the vehicle speed, reducing the frequency of using the brakes and preventing brake fade caused by frequent braking. The lower the gear, the greater the engine's braking force. Keeping the vehicle in a lower gear results in a slower increase in speed compared to higher gears. Combined with the effect of braking, the stopping power is more noticeable and safer, effectively reducing the likelihood of accidents.
