Small-displacement cars generally refer to "mini cars" with a displacement of around 1.0 liters, and their fuel consumption is basically below 5 liters per 100 kilometers. Advantages of small-displacement cars: Energy-saving: The fuel consumption of small-displacement cars is basically below 6 liters per 100 kilometers. Compared with family economy cars with a general displacement below 1.4 liters, they can save 3-4 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers, with significant social benefits. Environmental protection: Air quality monitoring in China's urban environments shows that 70% of cities fail to meet air quality standards. With the rapid increase in urban motor vehicle ownership, motor vehicle exhaust emissions have become the main source of air pollution in many cities. The relationship between small-displacement cars and fuel consumption: Regardless of the displacement, the best working speed for an engine is generally around 2000 rpm. For small-displacement engines, the maximum speed in urban driving can reach 40-60 km/h, so the rpm will not be too high. However, under high-speed driving conditions, the rpm can reach 3500 at speeds above 100 km/h, and 4000 rpm at speeds above 120 km/h, or even 4500 rpm. High-speed driving will definitely lead to higher fuel consumption. For example, my F0 consumes about 6L in slow urban driving, but it will be above 7-8L on the highway, so it is not fuel-saving.

What is the maintenance interval for a dry dual-clutch transmission?

The maintenance interval for a dry dual-clutch transmission is two years. Key usage precautions include: 1. Avoid sudden acceleration when going uphill; 2. Do not abruptly press the accelerator after braking; 3. Switch to manual mode in congested areas; 4. Avoid frequent sudden braking; 5. Regularly add engine oil. The dry dual-clutch transmission consists of two clutch plates and a coaxial intermediate disk. Its working principle involves two clutch plates on each side, connecting to gears 1, 3, 5, 7 and gears 2, 4, 6, reverse respectively. The intermediate disk moves between them, engaging or disengaging with the two clutch plates to shift gears.

Should the Sonata 8 use 20 or 30 viscosity oil?

The Sonata 8 can use 20 viscosity oil, as all models of the Sonata 8 are equipped with naturally aspirated engines. The engine temperature of the Sonata 8 is not very high during operation, and since it is not a performance car, the requirements for oil viscosity are not as stringent. Here are some details about the Sonata 8: Engine: The Sonata 8 uses two types of engines, one is a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine, and the other is a 2.4-liter naturally aspirated engine. Suspension: The front suspension of the Sonata 8 uses a MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension uses a multi-link independent suspension.
