Pure electric vehicle refers to a vehicle that uses on-board power as its power source, drives the wheels with an electric motor, and meets all the requirements of road traffic and safety regulations. Here is more information about pure electric vehicles: 1. Pure Electric Vehicle (Battery Electric Vehicle, referred to as BEV), it is completely powered by rechargeable batteries. 2. Although it has a long history of 186 years, it has been limited to certain specific applications with a small market. The main reason is that various types of batteries generally have serious shortcomings such as high price, short lifespan, large size and weight, and long charging time.

I just bought a pure electric vehicle, and now I rely on it for all my outings. Simply put, it's a car that runs solely on battery power and doesn't use any gasoline at all. It's much quieter than fuel-powered cars and accelerates really fast. Charging it is as convenient as charging a phone—just plug it into a household socket at night, and the electricity costs only a few cents per kilowatt-hour. Although I do get a bit nervous watching the range on the highway, it's truly cost-effective for city commuting, costing less than 10 cents per kilometer. Nowadays, charging stations are installed in residential areas and shopping malls, so range anxiety is much reduced. Oh, and there's no need to worry too much about battery life—the manufacturer offers a warranty of seven to eight years! Driving this kind of car feels very trendy, and with the special new energy license plate, you won't face driving restrictions either!

I've researched pure electric vehicles, and the biggest difference from hybrid cars is that they don't have an engine. These vehicles rely entirely on large-capacity lithium battery packs to power the electric motor, capable of running hundreds of kilometers after a full charge. The most enjoyable aspect of daily driving is the absence of noise and vibration, making it especially quiet when waiting at red lights. For charging, fast charging can replenish half the battery in half an hour, while home slow charging can fully charge the battery overnight. Although the battery drains faster when using the heater in winter, the overall operating cost is only one-fifth that of a gasoline car. When buying a car, it's advisable to compare battery capacities, as larger capacities offer more reliable range. The government also provides purchase subsidies and exempts purchase taxes!

As a car mechanic, I find the structure of pure electric vehicles to be incredibly simple—much easier to repair than fuel-powered cars. It boils down to three core components: the battery pack + electric motor + electronic control system. When you press the accelerator, the electronic control system directs the motor to spin, eliminating the need for complex engines and transmissions. Routine maintenance just involves checking the brake pads and replacing the cabin air filter, making it more convenient and cost-effective than fuel-powered cars. The only thing to watch out for is that the battery is vulnerable to flooding, so extra caution is needed during heavy rain. Nowadays, many car owners ask me if they should switch from fuel-powered to electric vehicles—those who've tried them all say they're great!

How to Perform Emergency Braking for Vehicle Safety?

Methods for performing emergency braking for vehicle safety: 1. For vehicles equipped with an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS): Quickly lift the accelerator pedal and immediately press the brake pedal firmly (maintain pressure), while simultaneously depressing the clutch pedal to bring the car to a rapid stop. 2. For vehicles without an Anti-lock Braking System: Quickly lift the accelerator pedal, press the brake pedal firmly and use intermittent braking (pump the brakes) to prevent wheel lock-up, and depress the clutch at the right moment to prevent the engine from stalling. Emergency braking can cause significant damage to the vehicle and tires, and often leads to loss of control, such as fishtailing, spinning, or skidding, due to uneven braking between the left and right wheels or differences in traction coefficients. This is especially dangerous on slippery surfaces, where it can cause mechanical damage or even accidents.

What is the reason for the automatic relocking after remote unlocking of the Baojun 730?

Baojun 730 remote unlocking after the automatic relocking is due to the damage of the lock block, which keeps the motor working; the sensor failure leads to the confusion of the control computer information. The solution for the automatic relocking after remote unlocking of the Baojun 730 is to remove the door panel and observe whether any parts of the locking mechanism have fallen off or are damaged. If any parts are found to have fallen off, they can be reinstalled by yourself. If no specific fault point is observed, it should be handed over to professionals for handling. The front suspension of the Baojun 730 uses a MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension uses a multi-link independent suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5T or 1.5L turbocharged engine, paired with a 6-speed manual or CVT continuously variable transmission (simulating 8 gears).

Can You Keep Driving When the Radiator Overheats?

You should not continue driving when the radiator overheats. Find a safe place to pull over, but do not turn off the engine immediately. Let the engine idle to continue dissipating heat, and open the hood to speed up the cooling process. Do not open the radiator cap to avoid being scalded by hot liquid that may spray out. When the engine is overheated, do not pour water on the engine block or cylinder head, as this can cause the block to crack. After allowing some time for cooling, turn off the engine once the water temperature drops to a suitable level. Reasons for radiator overheating include: 1. Radiator leakage or insufficient coolant, preventing the engine heat from dissipating and the temperature from lowering in time; 2. Deteriorated coolant with reduced boiling point, affecting its cooling performance.

Is the Accord a manual or automatic transmission car?

The new Honda Accord is an automatic transmission car, with all models equipped with automatic transmissions, specifically E-CVT and CVT continuously variable transmissions. The eighth-generation Accord had a 5MT manual transmission, while the ninth and tenth generations have discontinued the manual option, switching to CVT continuously variable transmissions. This change was made to improve fuel efficiency and reduce the space occupied by the transmission. The large size of the 5MT manual transmission took up significant storage space inside the car, which did not align with the usage habits of younger car owners. Additionally, the CVT automatic transmission is more convenient to operate. The biggest advantage of automatic transmission cars is the elimination of frequent gear shifting, avoiding difficulties in starting. They save time and effort, reducing driving fatigue, and offer high comfort, simplicity, and ease of mastering driving techniques.
