ACC refers to the Adaptive Cruise Control system, and LKAS refers to the Lane Keeping Assist System. When these two words appear on the dashboard, it indicates that the corresponding systems are activated. Both ACC and LKAS functions can have a certain impact on actual driving, so in some road conditions, it is more appropriate to turn them off. ACC is more intelligent compared to traditional cruise control systems. Its function is to monitor the vehicle ahead through radar sensors, digital processors, and control modules. When the vehicle ahead slows down, the car automatically brakes to reduce speed. When the distance to the vehicle ahead increases, it accelerates automatically, always maintaining a reasonable safe distance. The role of LKAS is to prevent the vehicle from deviating from its lane. When the vehicle drifts out of the driving lane, the system alerts the driver through a warning, prompting the driver to consciously maintain the vehicle within the lane. LKAS can be used as long as the vehicle speed is above 65 kilometers per hour and driving on straight roads or curves with a radius of 230 meters or less.

ACC stands for Adaptive Cruise Control, and LKAS stands for Lane Keeping Assist System. The ACC function is like an intelligent following assistant. When I set the speed while driving, it uses radar to monitor the car in front. If the car ahead slows down, it helps me brake, and if the car speeds up, it automatically resumes the set speed. It's especially handy for long highway drives, eliminating the need to constantly press the accelerator. However, don't rely on it too much, as the radar might get confused in heavy rain or fog. As for LKAS, it's even more amazing—the camera scans the lane markings and the steering wheel automatically makes minor adjustments to avoid crossing the lines. Once when I was drowsy while driving, the car corrected the direction on its own, which was a huge help. These two features are super practical when used together, and most modern cars are equipped with them.

How much fuel does a 1.6L engine consume when idling with AC on for one hour?

Fuel consumption when idling with the AC on varies depending on the engine displacement, typically ranging from 1.4 to 2.5 liters, with an average of around 1.6 liters. While the fuel consumption is not excessive, it is detrimental to the engine, as it can lead to carbon buildup and overheating damage to the catalytic converter. Below is an introduction to idling conditions: 1. Normal idle: When the vehicle is parked and the engine is started, the minimum stable engine speed is referred to as parking idle (the process of the engine transitioning from a cold idle state to an idle state at normal operating temperature is called warming up or heating up the engine). 2. Driving idle: When the car is in gear without pressing the accelerator pedal or when the accelerator pedal is released while driving, maintaining the minimum throttle opening, the engine speed matches the parking idle speed, which is referred to as driving idle. 3. Unstable idle: Unstable idle is one of the most common issues encountered in engine maintenance. Incorrect diagnostic approaches can prolong repair times, reduce efficiency, and even cause vehicle owners to switch to another repair shop due to impatience.

What is the ABS Anti-lock Braking System?

ABS stands for Anti-lock Braking System. Its function is to automatically control the braking force during vehicle braking, preventing the wheels from locking up and maintaining a state of rolling and sliding (with a slip ratio of around 20%), thereby ensuring maximum adhesion between the wheels and the road surface. Single-channel ABS: Also known as one-channel ABS, it features a single brake pressure modulator installed in the rear wheel brake line and a wheel speed sensor mounted on the rear axle differential (some models may have a sensor on each rear wheel). Dual-channel ABS: This type of ABS struggles to balance directional stability, steering control, and braking efficiency, and is rarely used nowadays. Three-channel ABS: It independently controls the two front wheels while jointly controlling the two rear wheels based on the low-select principle (i.e., both wheels are controlled by one channel to ensure the wheel with less adhesion does not lock up), also known as hybrid control. Four-channel ABS: Equipped with four wheel speed sensors, it has a separate brake pressure modulator for each wheel's brake caliper line, enabling independent control and forming a four-channel control system.
