Car compartments refer to: 1. The description of the car body type. 2. Examples: A two-compartment car means the body has a rear luggage compartment without protruding from the car body. If the engine compartment, passenger compartment, and rear luggage compartment of the entire car are all separated and this separation is fixed and irreversible, then it should be classified as a three-compartment car. Relevant information about car compartments is as follows: 1. Three-compartment sedan: Refers to the engine compartment, driving compartment, and luggage compartment being separated from each other, with clear distinctions. The middle driving compartment is the highest, while the engine compartment and luggage compartment at both ends are lower. 2. Two-compartment sedan: A three-compartment sedan without the luggage compartment is a two-compartment sedan. Its luggage is hidden behind the rear seats, and from the outside, only the engine compartment and driving compartment are visible.

Is There Depreciation Compensation for New Cars Involved in Traffic Accidents?

No. During an accident, the vehicle's repair costs and reasonable transportation expenses are in line with legal provisions, but depreciation compensation lacks legal basis and is generally not supported by courts. Additional Information: Vehicle depreciation compensation is a financial representation of the recovery of vehicle investment. It involves allocating a certain amount of funds annually to update vehicles and maintain transportation reproduction. Vehicle depreciation compensation does not reflect the national economy's investment in transportation vehicles; what effectively reflects the economic cost of vehicle depreciation is the vehicle's capital recovery cost. The adjustment method for vehicle depreciation compensation is to replace the financial depreciation cost with the vehicle's capital recovery cost (under the social discount rate). The vehicle capital recovery cost equals the vehicle's economic price (excluding purchase surcharges) multiplied by the annual capital recovery coefficient, divided by the average annual transportation turnover per vehicle.

What is the actual fuel consumption of the Corolla Hybrid?

The fuel consumption of the Corolla Hybrid is 4.2L/100km, with an actual calculated result of 4.4L/100km, which is the same as the fuel consumption during highway cruising. Fuel consumption calculation formula: Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers = Fuel consumption (liters) ÷ Distance traveled (kilometers) × 100. For example, if a 1.6-liter car travels 400 kilometers and consumes 30 liters of fuel, then the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers = 30 ÷ 400 × 100 = 7.5 liters. Tips to reduce fuel consumption: Ensure the tire pressure is correct. The pressure should not be too high or too low, as both conditions will increase fuel consumption. Regularly check the tire pressure to avoid affecting driving fuel consumption. Avoid changing the size of the tires. Wider tires increase resistance. Unless there are special requirements for good grip, overly wide tires will only increase fuel consumption.

Is it normal for the engine warning light to come on in a new car?

Sensor issues: The sensors mentioned here include coolant temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake air temperature, oxygen sensors, etc. When these sensors are damaged, have poor contact, or experience signal interruption, the car's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data, which will cause the engine warning light to come on. Maintenance issues: Poor engine maintenance is the most common reason for the engine warning light to illuminate. Vehicles have specific maintenance cycles, and if the owner does not perform maintenance on schedule, coupled with poor driving habits, it will increase the burden on the engine's operation. Eventually, the warning light will come on as a reminder to take care of the vehicle. Fuel quality issues: The fuel quality here includes both fuel and engine oil. The fuel added to a car usually has a specific grade, and engine oil can be semi-synthetic or fully synthetic. Manufacturers generally recommend which grade of fuel and type of engine oil to use. If the owner does not follow these recommendations, it will lead to engine wear over time.

Is free touch-up paint provided for new car scratches within one year?

New car scratches are not eligible for free touch-up paint within one year. Below are relevant details: 4S store touch-up: If you go to a 4S store for touch-up paint, it will be charged according to standard rates. However, if the scratched area is not noticeable and requires spot painting by the 4S store, this service may be provided free of charge. High-temperature baking: Minor scratches or blemishes on new cars do not necessarily require touch-up treatment. It's important to understand that touch-up paint treatment is completely different from the original paint. Original paint is applied and then the entire vehicle is baked at 200 degrees Celsius. However, many components on a finished vehicle cannot withstand such high temperatures. Even when using specialized touch-up paint during repairs, the baking temperature is maintained at around 70 to 80 degrees Celsius, and the touch-up paint can only treat the surface layer. Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, touch-up painting is not recommended.

What items are required for the second maintenance of a new car?

The items required for the second maintenance of a new car include: Engine oil and oil filter: If using mineral oil, semi-synthetic oil, or full synthetic technology oil, the maintenance interval is generally 5,000 kilometers or six months. If using full synthetic oil, the maintenance interval is 10,000 kilometers or one year. Replace the engine oil and oil filter, check the cleanliness of the air filter and cabin air filter, and then decide whether to blow them clean or replace them directly based on the actual condition. Air filter: At every 20,000 kilometers, generally replace the air filter, cabin air filter, brake fluid, coolant, spark plugs, and other components. Additionally, rotate the four tires based on their wear condition. Various fluids: At every 40,000 kilometers, it is necessary to replace all types of vehicle fluids, replace the timing belt/chain, clean the throttle body, fuel injectors, and other components, and check the condition of wear items such as brake pads and tires for replacement as needed.

What is the issue when four-wheel drive is turned off?

The indication of four-wheel drive being turned off is not a malfunction, but rather means that the current driving conditions do not require four-wheel drive mode, and two-wheel drive is sufficient. How four-wheel drive works: The four-wheel drive system, also known as the all-wheel drive system, refers to a setup where both the front and rear wheels receive power. It can distribute the engine's torque in varying proportions to all wheels based on road conditions to enhance the vehicle's driving capability. It is commonly denoted as 4X4 or 4WD. Categories of four-wheel drive: Four-wheel drive systems are mainly divided into two types: part-time four-wheel drive (PartTime4WD) and full-time four-wheel drive (FullTime4WD).
