The letter 'A' inside a circle on the dashboard refers to the vehicle's auto start-stop function. After the car is started, the auto start-stop function enters the active mode. For example, when approaching a traffic light, if you press the brake for 1 to 2 seconds while stopping, this function will automatically shut off the engine. When the light turns green, simply lightly press the accelerator or turn the steering wheel to restart the engine. Below are some precautions for using the auto start-stop function: 1. If the vehicle has an active parking function, do not shift to neutral or pull the handbrake. Simply press the brake to stop, and when you need to start again, release the foot brake and press the accelerator. 2. When driving on steep slopes, try to avoid using the auto start-stop function. Although the auto start-stop time is brief, the engine's start-stop on a slope may cause insufficient brake assistance. 3. In extremely hot weather in the south when the air conditioning is running at full capacity, it is best to turn off the auto start-stop function. This is because the air conditioning requires significant power consumption, and the vehicle's electrical system may not be able to support the air conditioning operation when the engine is off, causing discomfort to passengers.

Are There Charging Piles for New Energy Vehicles at Highway Service Areas?

Only some highway service areas have charging piles, while others do not. Therefore, it is advisable to plan your route in advance before traveling. Function of Charging Piles: Charging piles function similarly to fuel dispensers at gas stations. They can be fixed on the ground or walls and installed in public buildings (such as public buildings, shopping malls, public parking lots, etc.) and residential community parking lots or charging stations. They can charge various types of electric vehicles according to different voltage levels. Charging Methods of Charging Piles: The input end of a charging pile is directly connected to the AC grid, and the output end is equipped with a charging plug for charging electric vehicles. Charging piles generally provide two charging methods: regular charging and fast charging. Users can swipe a specific charging card on the human-machine interaction interface provided by the charging pile to perform operations such as selecting the charging method, setting the charging time, and printing cost data. The display screen of the charging pile can show data such as charging amount, cost, and charging time.

What is the New Vehicle Inspection Policy?

In the 2021 annual inspection regulations, vehicles that are 15 years or older still require two inspections per year. Changes in the annual inspection system always concern car owners, but although the system undergoes adjustments each year, the modifications are generally minor and not significant. New Vehicle Inspection Regulations - Streamlining Administration, Delegating Powers, and Improving Services: When it comes to streamlining administration, delegating powers, and improving services, many people may not fully understand what it entails. This approach is applied in various grassroots services, including vehicle management, financial management, healthcare management, and social security management, aiming to simplify and expedite administrative procedures. Therefore, it can be summarized as: simplifying administration, delegating powers, combining delegation with regulation, and optimizing services. New Vehicle Inspection Regulations - China 6 Standards: Before the implementation of the China 6 standards, car dealers were busy clearing inventory through sales, while consumers rushed to take advantage of the situation. Now that the China 6 standards have been implemented in many cities and regions across the country, the focus has shifted from buying and selling to annual inspections. The China 6 emission standards are currently the strictest tailpipe emission standards in China, with all parameters being twice as stringent as those of the China 5 standards.

Can 4S shops repair cars during National Day?

During the National Day holiday, 4S shops can repair cars, but they may not all be open, and the repair speed may be slower. Statutory Holiday: National Day is a statutory holiday established by a country to commemorate the nation itself. It usually marks the country's independence, the signing of the constitution, the birthday of the head of state, or other significant anniversaries. In some cases, it may also be the feast day of the country's patron saint. Although most countries have similar commemorative days, due to complex political relationships, some countries cannot refer to this holiday as National Day. For example, the United States only has Independence Day, not National Day, but the two hold the same significance. The Significance of National Day: National Day is a characteristic feature of modern nation-states, emerging alongside the appearance of modern nation-states and becoming particularly important. It serves as a symbol of an independent nation, reflecting the country's state system and political structure.

How many kilometers does 80 mph run in one hour?

Car speed of 80 mph is 80 km/h. So running for one hour would be 80 kilometers. 'Mph' is a foreign unit that has been colloquialized in China. Introduction to 'Mph': 'Mph' is a British length unit, approximately equal to 0.9144 meters. Due to people's colloquial habit of omitting the 'per hour' part, it is also used as a speed unit. Car speed is calculated in metric units of kilometers. When British people say 100 mph, it equals 160 kilometers per hour, so 80 mph abroad means 50 mph. Unit conversion: 1 mph (Chinese colloquial) = 1 kilometer (/hour) 1 mph (British unit) = 0.9144 meters (meters, not kilometers) 1 mile = 1.609344 kilometers Origin of car speed units: Cars originated from foreign countries. The original speed measurement unit was the mile, and speedometers in cars were also marked with miles. At that time, most people were not familiar with English. When they heard the term 'mile,' they didn't know what it meant. They only knew it referred to the car's speed. To make it easier for the general public to understand, 'mile' was transliterated as 'mph.' Thus, it became a unit for measuring car speed. In other words, 'mph' is a loanword for 'mile,' meaning mile.
