4S represents a "four-in-one" automotive business model that includes vehicle sales, spare parts supply, after-sales service, and information feedback. The term 4S comes from the initial letters of four English words. These four S-starting English words represent the following meanings: Sale (vehicle sales), Sparepart (spare parts), Service (after-sales service), and Survey (information feedback). Relevant information about car maintenance is as follows: 1. Introduction: Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of a car, also known as car servicing. 2. Maintenance scope: Modern car maintenance mainly includes the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, etc.

I always thought a 4S store was just a high-end car repair shop, but last time when I went to buy a car, the salesperson explained the concept to me in detail. 4S stands for four parts: the first is Sale, responsible for selling new and used cars; the second is Service, providing maintenance and repairs; the third is Spare parts, selling original parts like tires or batteries; the fourth is Survey, collecting customer feedback to improve processes. This one-stop model makes it convenient for consumers, handling everything from buying a car to maintenance and purchasing parts in one go. I think it's quite reliable, unlike small repair shops where parts might be fake and expensive. The technicians at 4S stores are trained, equipped with professional tools, and keep complete maintenance records, saving both money and time. I recommend that car-buying beginners prioritize 4S stores to avoid future troubles.

Does Citroen have hybrid models?

Citroen's hybrid model is the Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS New Energy. Below is an introduction about hybrid technology: Parallel mode: One is the "parallel mode" where the engine serves as the main power source, and the electric motor acts as an auxiliary power source. Hybrid mode: The other is the "series-parallel mode" where the vehicle is driven solely by the electric motor at low speeds, and both the engine and electric motor work together at higher speeds. During startup and low-speed driving, the vehicle is powered solely by the electric motor. As speed increases, the engine and electric motor efficiently share the power load. This method requires power distribution devices and generators, making the structure more complex.

Where is the brake located in an automatic transmission car?

In an automatic transmission car, the brake is located below the main driver's console, with the brake on the left and the accelerator on the right, both controlled by the right foot. The principle of car braking is: utilizing the friction between the brake pads and brake discs, as well as between the tires and the ground, to generate significant friction, converting the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into heat energy through friction, thereby stopping the rotating parts. The gears of an automatic transmission are: P (Park), R (Reverse), N (Neutral), D (Drive), S (Sport), and L (Low). The starting techniques for an automatic transmission car are: 1. Before starting, place the gear selector in P or N position; 2. Engage the parking brake or press the brake pedal; 3. Shift to D gear, release the parking brake, slowly lift the brake, and gently press the accelerator to start the vehicle.
