Blue parking spaces indicate free motor vehicle or non-motor vehicle parking spaces, representing free parking markings. If the blue marking is a dashed line, it only allows limited-time free parking; a solid blue line indicates long-term free parking. Below is relevant information: Parking space markings: There are three types of parking space markings, namely blue, white, and yellow. Blue represents free parking spaces, white represents paid parking spaces (some of which may be free at night), and yellow represents special vehicle (such as fire trucks) parking spaces. Yellow-marked parking spaces usually allow temporary parking but absolutely prohibit long-term parking. Notes: It is important to note that even if the marking is a blue solid line, it is best not to exceed one hour of parking, otherwise a ticket may be issued. For limited-time free blue parking spaces, there will be signs next to the space indicating the free parking period, which is usually written on the sign. The free parking period is not uniformly regulated and depends on the specific circumstances of the location.

Why Did Changan Suzuki Stop Selling?

First, the slow model updates are the primary reason. The main reason why Suzuki's models are well-known to most consumers is that each model has been sold for too long. For example, models like the Alto, Swift, and SX4 sometimes only needed a change in body color to be called an annual facelift. In recent years, as domestic consumers' demands for vehicles have increased, Suzuki's strategy has become ineffective. Although models like the Vitara and Ignis were launched later and received good market feedback, the pace of new model releases was still too slow compared to mainstream domestic car brands. Secondly, Suzuki was too "stubborn" in terms of space and configuration. Domestic consumers have very high demands for space and features. Many models have extended their interior space to meet these demands, gaining consumer recognition and becoming mainstream bestsellers. In contrast, Suzuki's models, whether the early compact cars or the later family-oriented compact models, could not compete with mainstream models in terms of space. Moreover, the configurations of Suzuki-branded vehicles are average compared to their peers. It is hard to find a Suzuki model that satisfies consumers in terms of features. Additionally, the interior materials and quality are at a disadvantage compared to mainstream models in the same price range. Finally, inflexible market strategies were evident with the later launch of the Vitara. Although the Vitara had strong product appeal and excellent design, there were no cash discounts at the dealership level. Even before the exit from the market, discounts were rare. Such pricing strategies ultimately led to consumer abandonment. Suzuki's exit is also related to the rapid development of the automotive market. Consumers' increasing demand for models above the compact level and the overall decline in vehicle prices left Suzuki models with no competitive edge in the market.

What is the Internet of Vehicles?

Internet of Vehicles is a vast interactive network composed of information such as vehicle location, speed, and routes. It can be regarded as a product combining the Internet of Things, intelligent transportation, vehicle information services, cloud computing, and automotive electronic technology. Nowadays, well-known technologies like autonomous driving, human-machine interaction, and intelligent voice recognition are all manifestations of the Internet of Vehicles. A car without Internet of Vehicles functionality is like a computer that cannot connect to the internet, while a car with Internet of Vehicles functionality is like a computer that can connect to the internet—obviously, the latter has more functions. Cars with Internet of Vehicles functionality also offer convenient features such as navigation and real-time traffic updates.

Does Fast Charging Harm the Battery?

Fast charging does harm the battery. During rapid charging, the battery temperature rises, and prolonged exposure to high temperatures can shorten the battery's lifespan. Many consumers purchase pure electric vehicles or electric bicycles, both of which are equipped with batteries. Some electric vehicles use lithium batteries, while others use lead-acid batteries. In principle, battery damage primarily stems from two aspects: 1. During battery charging and discharging, the cathode and anode of the battery shrink and expand with the release and absorption of ions. Fast charging can damage the chemical substances on the battery, leading to a shortened battery life. 2. During fast charging, due to the higher current, the thermal effect of the current intensifies, causing the battery to generate high temperatures. This affects the battery's safety and stability, resulting in a sudden decrease in capacity and permanent damage to the battery cells.

What to Do When Car Window Glass Won't Roll Up or Down

If the car window glass won't roll up or down, you can try the following initialization procedure: Turn on the ignition switch, pull and hold the window switch in the upward position.
