It refers to how many liters of fuel are consumed per 100 kilometers. This is an important parameter used to measure a vehicle's fuel economy, and the value may vary under different conditions. People often say that the gasoline consumption per kilometer driven by a car is also a standard for measuring general vehicle fuel consumption. Generally speaking, a car's fuel consumption refers to its fuel consumption per 100 kilometers, i.e., how many liters of fuel are needed to drive 100 kilometers. This is the theoretical indicator of the vehicle. The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers refers to the value measured by the manufacturer using a dynamometer installed on the vehicle chassis, converted into speed parameters, and then driving at a specified speed to calculate the theoretical experimental data of the vehicle's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers.

How Does a Car Refrigerator Work?

Semiconductor car refrigerators operate based on electronic chip cooling, utilizing P-N junctions formed by special semiconductor materials to create thermocouple pairs, which generate the Peltier effect—a novel refrigeration method that cools through direct current, with a cooling temperature range of 5 to 65 degrees. Compressor car refrigerators use traditional compressor technology, offering lower cooling temperatures, typically between -18 to 10 degrees. Below is additional information about car refrigerators: 1. Car refrigerator: refers to a portable cooling cabinet that can be carried in a car. Car refrigerators have become a popular new generation of cooling and refrigeration appliances in the international market in recent years. 2. Semiconductor car refrigerator: Also known as an electronic refrigerator, semiconductor car refrigerators differ from traditional refrigerators that use refrigerants for cooling. The principle of semiconductor car refrigerators falls under electronic physical cooling. This cooling method utilizes the "Peltier Effect."

Why Do Cars Experience Tire Blowouts?

Reasons for vehicle tire blowouts: 1. Tire leakage: When punctured by nails or other sharp objects without immediate rupture, the tire may slowly leak air, eventually leading to a blowout. 2. Excessive tire pressure: During high-speed driving, tire temperature rises, increasing air pressure and causing deformation. This reduces the tire's elasticity and increases load stress, making it prone to internal cracks or blowouts upon impact. 3. Insufficient tire pressure: At high speeds (exceeding 120km/h), low pressure can induce "harmonic vibration" in the tire body, generating massive resonant forces. Weakened or damaged tires are particularly vulnerable to blowouts under these conditions. Additionally, underinflated tires exhibit greater tread deflection, making sidewall contact with the ground during sharp turns more likely. Since the sidewall is the tire's weakest area, such contact frequently results in blowouts.

How Long Can a Car Sit Without Being Driven Before It Gets Damaged?

Leaving a car unused for a month can cause damage, particularly to the battery, which may lose charge. Below is relevant information about long-term car parking: 1. Tire Damage: Rubber components like tires that are directly exposed to external elements may oxidize and deteriorate when left unused for extended periods. Although tires remain in contact with the ground, the air inside them gradually leaks out, shortening their lifespan. 2. Battery Drain: If your car sits idle for too long, the most common issue is severe battery drain, making it difficult to start the engine. Since the car remains turned off, the battery stops working but still loses about 1% of its capacity per day.

Is it necessary to buy car insurance at a 4S shop?

It is not necessary to buy at a 4S shop, but you should choose a formal shop when purchasing insurance. The following is an introduction to car insurance related content: 1. Compulsory traffic insurance: Since August 2008, all new cars and vehicles with expired insurance must purchase compulsory traffic insurance for renewal. 2. Commercial car insurance: including car damage insurance, third-party liability insurance, on-board personnel liability insurance and their additional insurances, which provide protection for the vehicle itself, the third party in the accident and the on-board personnel respectively. In the case of limited financial ability, you can choose to insure only one of them according to your needs. It is recommended to give priority to third-party liability insurance and car damage insurance; if the financial conditions permit, you can choose to insure all or multiple of them.
