False labeling refers to the situation where the actual engine power, battery capacity, or driving range of a car does not match the specifications claimed by the manufacturer. For example, if a manufacturer advertises a driving range of 600km but the actual range is only 400km, this constitutes false labeling. For consumers: False labeling is purely deceptive and irresponsible. Engines with false specifications are typically produced by unknown manufacturers and are not subject to legal supervision, meaning the quality and after-sales service of these engines cannot be guaranteed. The dangers of false labeling: False labeling is merely a means for unscrupulous businesses to seek exorbitant profits. Its existence not only hinders the healthy development of the automotive engine market and the establishment of domestic brands but also severely damages consumer interests.

What to Do If the Vehicle Inspection Is Overdue by One Month?

If the vehicle inspection is overdue by one month, you need to promptly go to the vehicle management office for a re-inspection. However, please note: 1. Whether the inspection is overdue by one month or one day, it means the vehicle is no longer qualified to be driven on the road. 2. Once you discover that the vehicle inspection is overdue, you should immediately arrange for a supplementary inspection. Penalties related to overdue vehicle inspections: 1. Within three months: If the vehicle inspection is overdue for less than three months, you can simply apply for a re-inspection and will receive a verbal warning without a fine. 2. Over three months but less than two years: If the vehicle inspection is overdue for more than three months but less than two years, you will need to pay a fine ranging from 50 to 200 yuan and have 3 points deducted from your license. 3. Over two years: If the vehicle has not undergone an inspection for more than two years, the vehicle's registration will be canceled, and you will generally need to pay a fine to have it reinstated. 4. Driving without a timely inspection is considered illegal and may result in the vehicle being impounded. 5. If the vehicle fails to obtain an inspection compliance mark for three consecutive inspection cycles, it will be forcibly scrapped.

What are the differences between the 3-cylinder and 4-cylinder engines of the Lynk & Co 03?

Specific differences between the 3-cylinder and 4-cylinder engines of the Lynk & Co 03: 1. Fuel consumption: For engines of the same displacement, fewer cylinders result in less power output. At the same RPM, the volume of air drawn in per unit time is reduced, leading to less fuel injection and lower fuel consumption. Therefore, the 3-cylinder engine is undoubtedly more fuel-efficient than the 4-cylinder engine. 2. Power output: The 3-cylinder engine has one fewer cylinder working compared to the 4-cylinder engine, which reduces mechanical friction and increases thermal efficiency, further enhancing the engine's power output. This compensates for the initial acceleration power deficiency caused by the reduced air intake in the 3-cylinder engine. 3. Low-end torque: For engines of the same displacement, fewer cylinders result in more abundant low-end torque. Each cylinder has a larger volume, with bigger bore and stroke, leading to greater low-end torque. Combined with the reduced turbo lag of the 3-cylinder turbocharged engine, the low-end torque performance of a 3-cylinder turbocharged engine of the same displacement is slightly better than that of a 4-cylinder turbocharged engine.

How Many Days Does It Take to Get a Driver's License Renewed Online?

Generally, it takes 2 to 3 days to complete the acceptance of the license renewal application online. The full name of the driver's license is the motor vehicle driver's license, also known as the "driver's license," which is the certificate required by law for motor vehicle drivers. Additional information: The calculation method for the demerit point cycle of a driver's license is as follows: 1. The calculation starts from the day the driver's license is initially issued, with every 12 months constituting a cycle. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," Article 65, the cumulative demerit point cycle (i.e., the demerit point cycle) for road traffic safety violations is 12 months, with a maximum of 12 points, calculated from the date the motor vehicle driver's license is initially issued. 2. Based on the severity of the road traffic safety violation, the points deducted for a single violation are categorized into five types: 12 points, 6 points, 3 points, 2 points, and 1 point. 3. Article 66 states that for a motor vehicle driver's road traffic safety violations, penalties and demerit points are executed simultaneously. If a motor vehicle driver commits two or more violations at once, the points should be calculated separately and then accumulated.

What is the purpose of the N gear in an automatic transmission car?

The functions of the N gear in an automatic transmission car are as follows: 1. Temporary parking: If the car needs to stop temporarily, such as waiting for someone, you can shift to N gear (if the stop is prolonged, it is recommended to turn off the engine). 2. Waiting at traffic lights: When waiting at a red light on the road, the vehicle needs to stop until the light turns green. N gear can also be used (to reduce fuel consumption). If the red light is very short, staying in D gear is also acceptable. 3. Towing: When the vehicle needs maintenance or towing for other reasons, it should be shifted to N gear for towing. 4. Parking and starting: N gear can also be flexibly used during parking and starting. For example, starting from N gear and shifting to D gear is much better than starting from P gear, which requires passing through R gear. Of course, the transmission of an automatic car is not that fragile, and starting from either P gear or N gear is actually fine.

Can a photo of the vehicle license replace the original vehicle license?

If you don't have the vehicle license with you, providing a photo or screenshot taken with your phone is invalid because photos can be synthesized. Generally, only real-time updated electronic licenses or paper licenses have legal validity. Legal basis: According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law," driving a motor vehicle on the road requires carrying both the driver's license and the vehicle license. If you fail to carry the vehicle license while driving, once caught, you will be fined, deducted 1 point, and the traffic police department may impound the vehicle, notifying the driver to provide valid documentation. If you provide the driver's license but commit a traffic violation, penalties will be imposed based on the violation and the failure to carry the driver's license, with the vehicle returned promptly. If you cannot provide the driver's license, you will be penalized for driving without a license. Applying for an electronic license: If you don't have the vehicle license with you, you can present an electronic license during a traffic police inspection. Many regions now support electronic driver's licenses and vehicle licenses. Drivers can apply for electronic licenses through platforms such as Alipay or local traffic police official WeChat accounts.

Why does a new battery lose one bar of power when accelerating?

New batteries lose one bar of power when accelerating because they have virtual power, so they drop one bar when accelerating. A car battery, also known as a storage battery, is a type of battery that works by converting chemical energy into electrical energy. Typically, what people refer to as a battery is a lead-acid battery, which is mainly made of lead and its oxides, with the electrolyte being a sulfuric acid solution. Here are the correct methods to maintain a car battery: 1. Clean the battery regularly: During daily use, pay attention to the battery's condition. Over time, the battery can become covered with dust, powder, grease, and other contaminants. To ensure the battery functions properly, promptly clean the dirt from the battery panel and the positive and negative terminals to extend its lifespan. 2. Avoid long-term parking: If the vehicle is not used for a long time, the battery will discharge on its own. Therefore, even if the car is not in regular use, it is recommended to start it once a week and take it for a short drive to keep the battery fully charged. 3. Regular testing: The lifespan of a vehicle battery is typically 3-4 years. For high-end models with more electronic systems, the battery's lifespan may be shorter. Regular testing of the battery's charge level can help maintain it in optimal working condition.
