Presale price is not the official price. When the commercial property is delivered for use, the price shall be subject to the price approved by the competent authorities. The following is a specific introduction to the relevant content: Presale introduction: The presale price is the price you can buy now. If the car appreciates in the future, the developer will raise the price. If the car depreciates, the price may also be reduced. But usually developers will raise prices to create the illusion that car prices are rising, encouraging people to buy as early as possible. Difference: The manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) is given by the car manufacturer, which is the official price. The market price of the car is the actual transaction price, generally agreed upon between the 4S store and the customer. To boost sales, 4S stores can offer their own preferential measures. Sometimes customers can also negotiate prices, such as asking for discounts. Sometimes, when cars are in high demand, customers may even need to pay a premium to get the car, and then both parties agree on a price.

Last time I bought a Tesla, I placed an order even before it entered the pre-sale phase. Car pre-sale is when manufacturers allow customers to reserve and purchase a new model before its official launch. You can think of it as early ordering—paying a deposit to secure a vehicle and enjoy early-bird discounts. During the pre-sale, I got a 5% discount and some charging accessories, though I had to wait a few months for delivery. The advantage is avoiding potential price hikes or stock shortages after the official launch, but there are risks too, like production delays or design changes. I recommend comparing pre-sale terms across different brands and avoiding impulsive purchases. This pre-sale model is quite common in the auto market now, especially for EVs, as it helps manufacturers gauge demand.

Why Can't the Car Window Be Fully Rolled Down?

Car windows cannot be fully rolled down because the rear wheel arches occupy space in the rear doors, making the lower part of the door curved. This results in the lower part of the door being narrower than the upper part, leaving no space to accommodate the window glass when fully lowered, hence the window cannot be rolled down completely. Below is more information about car windows: 1. Types of car windows: Typically, car windows are divided into four types: front and rear windshields, ventilation windows, heat-insulating side windows, and sunroofs. 2. Defogging car windows: (1) Slightly opening the window allows air circulation between the inside and outside of the car, maintaining consistent temperatures and preventing condensation on the inner surface of the windshield. (2) Turning on the air conditioning and adjusting the cabin temperature can eliminate fog on the windshield.

How to Use Air Conditioning When Driving on Highways in Winter?

Methods for using air conditioning when driving on highways in winter: 1. No need to press AC when using the heater in winter: (1) After a cold start, do not turn on the heater immediately. Wait until the vehicle has traveled some distance and the temperature gauge shows half of the normal operating temperature before turning on the heater. (2) When first turning on the heater, choose a low fan speed. Once the engine reaches normal operating temperature, adjust the fan speed according to personal preference. 2. Set a reasonable air direction: In winter, adjust the air direction to blow towards the feet. This will prevent noticeable breathing discomfort and provide good heating effects. 3. Set a reasonable temperature: (1) Due to the significant temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car and the extremely dry air, keeping the heater at a lower setting can help avoid dryness and colds. (2) If the heater is set too high, it may cause drowsiness, reduced concentration, and slower reaction times for the driver.
