Engine's holding effect refers to engaging a lower gear to slow down the engine speed, lifting the throttle pedal without depressing the clutch, and utilizing the compression resistance generated by the engine's compression stroke, internal friction, and intake/exhaust resistance to brake the driving wheels. According to engine working principles, it can be divided into: 1. Internal combustion engine: Fuel burns inside the engine; 2. External combustion engine: Fuel burns outside the engine; 3. Gas turbine: Combustion produces high-pressure gas, which drives the turbine blades to rotate; 4. Jet engine: An engine that directly generates reactive thrust by high-speed airflow ejected from the nozzle.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Haval H6?

Haval H6's fuel tank capacity is 58 liters, and it is a compact SUV under Great Wall Motors. Among similar vehicles, the Changan CS75PLUS has a fuel tank capacity of 58 liters, while the Roewe RX5 has a fuel tank capacity of 55 liters. If the owner wants to know the remaining fuel level, they can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the dashboard, which is marked with E and F. When the pointer is close to E, it means the fuel is almost empty, and when it is near F, it indicates sufficient fuel. Maintenance of the fuel tank is as follows: Drain accumulated water and sediment from the fuel tank, and check for any oil leakage at the fuel pipe joints and switches. For fuel tank caps equipped with air valves and vapor valves, also check if the ventilation holes are clear. The filter screen at the fuel filler port should remain intact to prevent impurities from entering the fuel tank during refueling and clogging the fuel lines. The sealing gasket of the fuel filler cap should also be intact to prevent fuel from spilling out while driving.

What is the motorcycle license class C?

Motorcycle licenses are categorized into Class D, E, and F. Additional information is as follows: 1. Motorcycles: There are two types of motorcycles, two-wheeled and three-wheeled. You can directly apply for an initial two-wheeled motorcycle license or an initial three-wheeled motorcycle license, or you can apply for an upgrade to a two-wheeled or three-wheeled motorcycle license. Currently, no driving schools offer Class F licenses, so the specific application process should be based on Class D and E licenses. 2. Driving without a license: If you already hold a Class C1 motor vehicle driver's license and wish to add a motorcycle license, you must not have accumulated 12 penalty points in the current scoring cycle or the most recent scoring cycle (1 year) before applying (and you must have held the license for at least one year). Additionally, the type of motor vehicle you drive must match the class of your license. Driving a motorcycle with a Class A, B, or C motor vehicle license is considered "driving without a license" and, if caught, will result in fines and penalty points.

What is the actual fuel consumption of the CS75?

The MIIT comprehensive fuel consumption is 7.0L/100km. Below are the relevant introductions about fuel consumption: 1. Habits and road conditions: Fuel consumption is greatly related to driving habits and road conditions. Avoid heavy acceleration and gradually accelerate for the most fuel-efficient start. To save fuel, avoid pressing the accelerator heavily when starting; heavy acceleration consumes 2 to 3 times more fuel than starting at a normal speed. 2. Braking: Maintaining a safe distance and avoiding frequent braking saves more fuel. If you don't keep a safe distance, you'll often need to brake on the road. When braking, an automatic transmission vehicle will downshift, requiring the vehicle to accelerate again from a lower gear. Starting from a standstill or in a low gear requires the engine to consume more fuel.
