Relevant information is introduced as follows: 1. BYD DMI: Refers to BYD's front-wheel-drive dominated plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. BYD also has DMp models, with DMp focusing on all-wheel-drive performance (full-time four-wheel drive) vehicles. DMp also features pure electric driving, range-extended driving, and hybrid technology. In summary, DMi is a front-wheel-drive fuel-saving system, while DMp is a high-performance all-wheel-drive system model with a rear axle motor. 2. Automotive DM Technology: DM stands for Dual-Mode, a technology combining pure electric vehicles (EV) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV). DM dual-mode electric vehicles utilize both electric vehicle systems and hybrid systems, integrating the control of both engine and motor power to achieve multiple energy replenishment methods including charging and refueling. 3. DM-i Models: According to the "New Energy Vehicle Industry Development Plan (2021-2035)" document, by 2025, new energy vehicles in China need to account for 20% of total new car sales, making the plug-in hybrid technology route highly promising. For the vast number of car owners pursuing economical and low fuel consumption, DM-i models offer lower fuel consumption compared to traditional fuel vehicles, faster acceleration, smoother and quieter operation, more environmentally friendly electric driving, and no purchase or driving restrictions.

Is it necessary to apply a car cover to an old vehicle?

It is also necessary to apply a car cover to an old vehicle. The role of a car cover: A car cover mainly protects against daily driving scratches. If you frequently encounter minor scratches during daily driving, the protection provided by the car cover can play a crucial role. Of course, it also has the effect of enhancing gloss, provided that you purchase a branded car cover. Low-quality car covers may not offer any protection. The drawbacks of car covers: As a cosmetic product for car paint, once a scratch occurs, the car cover becomes unusable and must be replaced, which means the owner has to pay out of pocket for the replacement, resulting in significant expenses. Car paint consists of three layers: primer, intermediate coat, and topcoat. While car paint is non-flammable, most car covers can be ignited. If, for example, fireworks accidentally come into contact with the car, it can easily cause the vehicle to catch fire.

Does Summer Affect Car Paint?

Summer has a significant impact on car paint. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause the paint to oxidize and lose its luster, while UV rays can make the paint appear dull and faded. Damage from Acid Rain: At best, acid rain can oxidize the paint surface and cause it to lose its shine. At worst, it can cause iron ions in the dust on the car's surface to rust, leading to bumps or yellow rust spots on the paint. Lighter-colored cars are particularly vulnerable to rain damage, often resulting in black spots or yellowing after being exposed to rain. Washing the Car in Direct Sunlight: Washing the car under the scorching sun can be harmful because water droplets act like tiny lenses, which, over time, can cause the paint to lose its shine. Additionally, high-pressure water jets can move dirt particles across the car's surface, causing friction damage to the paint.

What is the reason for not being able to see the wheel in the left rearview mirror?

Adjust the horizon inside the rearview mirror to the 2/3 height of the mirror, and adjust the reflection of the left side of the car body to occupy the left 1/4 area of the mirror to see the wheel. Install a small convex mirror: The true purpose of installing a small convex mirror is to observe the left and right rear wheels of the car body. When parking on the road, there is often a curb on the non-motorized lane. If you are not careful about this curb when parking by the side, it is easy to scratch the wheel rim and hub of the left and right rear wheels. The most vulnerable part of the tire is the side. Once scratched or punctured, the possibility of a tire blowout is very high. Therefore, the small convex mirror plays a role in this situation. Method to judge the distance using the rearview mirror: First, use the left rearview mirror to judge the timing of lane changing or turning. Divide the left rearview mirror into 1/3 danger zone and 2/3 safety zone. Only when the rear car is completely in the safety zone can you turn or change lanes. When the rear car is in the center of the safety zone, the distance to the rear car is about 15 to 20 meters, and it is relatively safe to turn or change lanes at this time.

What is the reason for not being able to see the tire in the left rearview mirror of a car?

The reasons for not being able to see the tire in the left rearview mirror of a car are as follows: Issues with the car itself: The wheelbase of the two front wheels is too small, or the waistline of the car body is protruding. You can adjust the rearview mirror. Some cars have a feature where the rearview mirror tilts downward when reversing. If this feature is not available, adjust the rearview mirror to the downward position. Alternatively, you can install a small mirror on the rearview mirror and position it to see the tire. The left rearview mirror is not properly adjusted: This can also result in not being able to see the tire. In most cars, the driver's seat is on the left side, and the left rearview mirror is closest to the driver, making it easier to see the image in the left rearview mirror. Therefore, adjusting the left rearview mirror properly is important. Generally, the horizontal line should be placed at the midline of the rearview mirror, and the edge of the car body should be adjusted to occupy one-fourth of the mirror's image. Try to move the viewing angle of the rearview mirror downward so that the left rear tire is visible, which is the optimal visual position.

Why should you turn on the turn signal when stopping and starting on a slope?

You should turn on the left turn signal. The turn signal is not for your own indication but to inform other vehicles or pedestrians. Slow start: When starting on a slope, slowly release the clutch pedal with your left foot until the vehicle begins to vibrate. Hold this position slightly to confirm whether the vehicle has the tendency and power to move forward. Do not continue to lift the clutch pedal to prevent stalling. Slowly accelerate: When the vehicle starts to move forward, the right hand can completely release the handbrake, and then slowly accelerate. When starting on a slope, if you do not give it gas, it is likely to stall due to insufficient idle speed, which cannot drive the vehicle to start on the slope.

Can the first maintenance be done after 1000 kilometers for a new car?

Generally, the first maintenance for a new car is scheduled at either six months or 5,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. There is also a new car inspection, which usually requires returning to the dealership after a few hundred or 1,000 kilometers. The first maintenance does not need to be done at 1,000 kilometers. Components of car insurance: Car insurance generally includes two parts: basic insurance and additional insurance. Basic insurance is further divided into vehicle damage insurance and third-party liability insurance. Coverage of car insurance: Vehicle damage insurance covers the loss of your own vehicle; third-party liability insurance covers damages to targets outside your own vehicle, such as people and public property you hit, the other party's car, etc.; passenger liability insurance covers personal and property losses of passengers in your own vehicle; theft insurance covers the loss when your own vehicle is stolen; no-deductible coverage ensures 100% compensation in case of an accident. If no-deductible coverage is not purchased, you will bear 30% of the deductible for each accident.
