It refers to U.S.-spec vehicles. Many imported cars in China are U.S.-spec models, typically imported and sold by large import-export companies from the United States. Specific details are as follows: 1. Lower price: Since U.S.-spec vehicles are much cheaper than their Chinese-spec counterparts, many people opt for them. In the market, imported cars come in various versions such as U.S.-spec, Chinese-spec, Middle East version, and European version. For example, Porsche's U.S.-spec models are adjusted by Porsche according to U.S. market demands and actual conditions before being exported to the U.S. for sale. 2. Legitimate procedures: These vehicles also come with proper documentation. The presence of U.S.-spec cars in China is often due to the absence of brand car dealers in the country, making U.S.-spec or Middle East versions the only options for purchase.

How to Determine if ETC is Usable?

Methods to check if ETC is functioning normally: Manually insert and remove the card; if there is a sound, it indicates that the ETC is in normal working condition. How ETC works: Through dedicated short-range communication between the on-board electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station, computer networking technology is used to perform background settlement processing with the bank. This allows vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping while still paying the toll. Where ETC can be installed: For small vehicles such as cars and vans, the OBU device is installed in the upper middle part of the front windshield. For large vehicles like trucks and buses, the installation position is in the lower middle part. ETC installation position requirements: The height should not be less than 1.2 meters or more than 2.5 meters; the installation angle N should be between 30º and 90º (the angle between the surface of the electronic tag and the horizontal plane).

What is a DOHC engine?

DOHC engine stands for Double Overhead Camshaft engine, where the intake and exhaust valves are arranged on two separate camshafts. Advantages include: higher performance, better stability, lower noise levels. Due to the complex manufacturing process, the cost is higher. Multi-valve engines allow for more complete combustion, enabling more fresh air to enter the engine, resulting in better emission efficiency. Additional information: 1. DOHC engines generally have higher torque and power compared to regular engines. The pistons are also different from those in conventional engines, as they need to be stronger to maintain normal engine operation. 2. The function of the camshaft is to mechanically coordinate the opening and closing actions of the intake and exhaust valves. SOHC refers to the situation where a single camshaft completes the opening and closing actions for both intake and exhaust valves, while DOHC uses two separate camshafts to independently control the intake and exhaust valves for their respective opening and closing actions.
