The auto start-stop function in a car refers to a system that automatically controls the engine's shutdown and ignition. In situations of brief stops, such as waiting at traffic lights or during traffic jams in urban areas, the engine automatically goes into a dormant state. After the engine shuts down, the power supply can replace the belt pulley to provide operational power for the engine cooling fan and the car's air conditioning, aiming to save fuel and reduce emissions. The core of the auto start-stop function is the automatic control of shutdown and startup, allowing the vehicle to temporarily turn off the engine during short stops. When the vehicle needs to continue moving, the driver can give a command by releasing the brake, pressing the accelerator, or turning the steering wheel, and the engine will quickly restart, enabling the vehicle to continue driving.
