HEV mode is the hybrid power mode of the vehicle, and also represents hybrid electric vehicles. Hybrid electric vehicles are powered by a combination of a traditional fuel engine and an electric motor. The following is relevant information about HEV mode: 1. Development background: The electric motor is combined with an auxiliary power unit in a vehicle to provide driving force. The auxiliary power unit is actually a small fuel engine or power generation unit. 2. Hybrid methods: After more than a decade of development, the hybrid power system assembly has evolved from the original discrete structure of the engine and motor to an integrated structure of the engine, motor, and transmission, known as the integrated hybrid power assembly system. Hybrid power assemblies can be classified by power transmission routes into three types: series, parallel, and series-parallel.

What does the ECO indicator on the dashboard mean?

When the dashboard displays the ECO indicator, it indicates that the vehicle's economy mode is activated. ECO is an English abbreviation derived from Ecology (environmental protection), Conservation (energy saving), and Optimization (power). The Eco mode is further divided into active Eco driving mode and passive Eco driving mode. The Eco mode is categorized into active and passive types. The difference lies in the fact that the active type has a dedicated button, allowing the driver to choose whether to enable it. When the driver presses the Eco mode switch, the dashboard indicator light immediately illuminates, and the vehicle automatically begins adjusting settings such as throttle opening, transmission shift logic, and air conditioning output power. The passive Eco mode does not have a dedicated button. When the dashboard Eco indicator light turns on, it serves merely as a reminder function. The Eco system automatically evaluates your driving behavior. If your current driving operation achieves the optimal fuel supply, the dashboard will simultaneously display the Eco indicator light. Most vehicles utilize the active Eco driving mode, which features a dedicated switch button. Therefore, during daily driving, we can enable the Eco mode. However, it is unnecessary to activate the Eco mode when driving at speeds exceeding 120 km/h, during idle parking, in N/P gear, or in manual mode—especially when climbing hills. Doing so would not only fail to demonstrate the fuel-saving characteristics of Eco but also impair vehicle performance. In addition, the Eco mode typically becomes ineffective under the following conditions: When the vehicle speed exceeds 120 kilometers per hour, the system prioritizes speed, causing the Eco mode to automatically deactivate. During idle parking or when in N/P gear or manual mode, the Eco mode may also become ineffective. When high torque output is required, such as when climbing a hill, the engine control unit prioritizes ensuring sufficient power to drive the vehicle, and the Eco mode will not function.

What to Do When Your Parked Car Gets Scratched by Someone Else?

Here are the solutions for when your parked car gets scratched by someone else: 1. Report to the police immediately The car owner should call the police immediately, and the traffic police will try to find the responsible party. At the same time, the owner should take comprehensive photos of the accident scene, including the location of the accident, the full view of the vehicle with a clear license plate, and specific details of the damaged areas. If the traffic police find the responsible party, it's straightforward—the other party will compensate. If the traffic police cannot find the responsible party, they should issue an "accident liability determination form," stating that the responsible party fled the scene. Then, the car owner can file a claim with their own insurance company. 2. Provide complete documentation and submit the claim documents promptly After reporting to the police, the car owner should provide the insurance company with complete proofs or documents. After the accident is resolved, the claim documents should be submitted within the specified time frame.

What Causes the Engine Warning Light to Illuminate in a Range Rover Evoque?

The engine warning light may illuminate due to the following 7 main reasons: Sensor malfunction: The sensors referred to here include those for coolant temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake air temperature, oxygen, etc. When these sensors are damaged, have poor contact, or their signals are interrupted, the vehicle's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data, which may trigger the engine warning light. Fuel or oil quality issues: If fuel or engine oil is not added as required by the manufacturer, it may cause engine wear, leading to the illumination of the warning light. Poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture: Poor combustion can lead to engine carbon buildup or knocking. When detected by the oxygen sensor and reported to the ECU, the warning light will illuminate as an alert. Spark plug failure, ignition coil failure, fuel pump failure, or fuel line blockage can all cause poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture. Turbocharging issues: The intake turbocharging pipeline or turbocharger can also cause the engine warning light to illuminate. The most common issue is turbocharger damage, accompanied by symptoms such as oil leakage, high oil consumption, reduced power, metallic noises, or blue/black smoke from the exhaust. Intake issues: If there is a problem with the vehicle's intake, it may lead to engine pipeline blockage, and in severe cases, trigger the engine warning light. A dirty air filter that is not cleaned regularly can cause intake problems. Exhaust issues: Exhaust system faults can also cause the engine warning light to illuminate. Common causes include rear oxygen sensor failure, three-way catalytic converter failure, exhaust camshaft and bearing failure, with the three-way catalytic converter being the most frequent issue. The use of leaded gasoline, lead or silicon-based lubricant additives, physical damage to the catalytic converter, or fuel supply system faults can easily lead to three-way catalytic converter failure. Anti-theft system malfunction: If the vehicle's electronic anti-theft system malfunctions, or if the anti-theft controller does not match the engine electronic controller, the anti-theft system can prevent the engine from operating normally and trigger the engine warning light. If the engine warning light is on, follow these steps: First, check whether the engine is running normally, and if there are issues such as shaking or black smoke, avoid restarting the engine. Note: Do not restart the engine if the red warning light is on. If the engine can be started, turn it off for 5-10 minutes, then without pressing the brake, press the start button once or turn the key halfway to the "on" position without pressing the clutch. The vehicle will perform a self-check after powering on. Wait for 5-10 seconds to see if the warning light turns off. If the warning light remains on, visit a service station as soon as possible for diagnosis. The service station can use a portable diagnostic tool to read the fault codes, identify the issue, and perform targeted repairs.
