DVVT engine refers to the Dual Variable Valve Timing technology. Engines equipped with DVVT technology are more efficient, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly compared to those with only intake valve timing technology (VVT). DVVT technology can reduce fuel consumption by 5%, while increasing power output by 10%, achieving performance indicators equivalent to a 2.0-liter displacement engine, with exhaust emissions meeting the National IV standard. By controlling the air-fuel mixture ratio in the engine combustion chamber to reach the optimal level, DVVT technology also significantly improves idle stability, resulting in better comfort. An engine is a machine capable of converting other forms of energy into mechanical energy, and its types include internal combustion engines, external combustion engines, electric motors, etc.

In the automotive world, the DVVT engine refers to Dual Variable Valve Timing technology. It dynamically adjusts the opening and closing times of the intake and exhaust valves through an electronic control system, optimizing engine performance at different speeds. For example, it closes the valves early at low speeds to enhance torque and delays them at high speeds to boost power output. This results in smoother power delivery, approximately 10% improved fuel efficiency, and reduced harmful emissions. Modern cars like the Toyota Corolla use this technology, but with more electronic components, it's prone to malfunctions, and repairs can be costly. From my experience in car repairs, I often see owners neglecting the maintenance of the control unit. I recommend checking it every 20,000 kilometers to prevent minor issues from becoming major problems. Overall, this technology is both practical and intelligent, representing progress in engine development.

DVVT stands for Dual Variable Valve Timing, which means the opening and closing times of both the intake and exhaust valves can be flexibly adjusted. As a car enthusiast, I've test-driven several vehicles equipped with DVVT: the engine response is much quicker, acceleration and overtaking feel effortless, and fuel consumption is significantly lower compared to fixed-timing engines. It operates via sensors and a hydraulic system to automatically optimize intake and exhaust efficiency. The engine delivers ample torque at low RPMs and strong burst power at high RPMs, making highway driving particularly enjoyable. Nowadays, many new cars come standard with this technology, such as the Hyundai Elantra, making driving more eco-friendly. However, installation and maintenance are more complex, and system failures can cause power fluctuations, so it's advisable to avoid frequent hard acceleration during normal driving. As shared in car enthusiast circles, regular ECU checks can help prevent issues.

The DVVT engine, simply put, is a dual variable valve timing system. From the experience of regular drivers: cars equipped with this type of engine tend to feel smoother during acceleration and more fuel-efficient. The ability to adjust valve timing means the opening and closing of intake and exhaust valves can flexibly adapt to road conditions. For example, during traffic jams, valves close earlier to enhance power, while on highways, they delay closing to improve efficiency. Compared to single VVT, it offers more comprehensive control over performance. I've driven a Hyundai Sonata for five years, and the fuel consumption is indeed low. During maintenance, technicians always remind me to check the ECU wiring to avoid malfunctions. The downside is that with more components, issues are more likely to arise, and repair costs are slightly higher. Regular maintenance is key to keeping it in good condition.

How to Keep the Blue License Plate After Purchasing a New Energy Vehicle?

To retain the original license plate, certain conditions must be met to continue using it. The license plate must have been used for more than 1 year to be eligible for retention, whereas previously, it required over 3 years. The application period for retaining the original license plate is 1 year, whereas the previous regulation allowed applications within 6 months after the original vehicle was transferred or scrapped. All traffic violation records associated with the original vehicle must be cleared. Retaining the original license plate after switching to a new energy vehicle is challenging unless you purchase both a new energy vehicle and a fuel-powered vehicle.

How to Properly Add Windshield Washer Fluid?

The reservoir for windshield washer fluid is mostly hidden under the hood. After opening and propping up the hood, we need to locate a small blue or black cap, which is the top cover of the windshield washer fluid reservoir. This small cap will have a symbol like this. Open the small cap and pour in the windshield washer fluid until you can just see the fluid, but do not overfill it. Close the cap tightly, making sure it clicks into place. Seasonally speaking, there are zero-degree windshield washer fluids for spring, summer, and autumn, as well as winter-specific windshield washer fluids.

How to disable the auto-lock feature on the Baojun 730?

If the doors are not opened, the car will automatically lock after approximately 15 seconds. However, if a door is opened and then closed, the auto-lock feature will not engage. The auto-lock function on the Baojun 730 cannot be deactivated manually. It requires a computer setup at a 4S dealership to disable it. Visit a repair shop and have the staff use a computer to turn off the feature. The purpose of the auto-lock function is to enhance security. It quickly locks the doors after driving, preventing potential door-pull robberies during traffic jams or at red lights, thereby providing a safety measure.
