I've been driving a Geely Free Cruiser for almost two years, equipped with a 1.5-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, which is said to be based on Mitsubishi's 4G15 series technology. The power output is moderate. It performs well in city driving with decent acceleration from a standstill, but requires more throttle input when overtaking on highways, with slightly sluggish response. The average fuel consumption is around 7 liters per 100 km, neither particularly fuel-efficient nor excessively thirsty, though it increases a bit when using air conditioning in summer. There's noticeable noise during cold starts, but it quiets down after the engine warms up. I'd remind everyone not to neglect maintenance – I change the engine oil every 5,000 kilometers using regular mineral oil, which is cost-effective. This engine has proven durable; my friend's has run for five years without major issues. Earlier models might have offered a 1.3-liter option with weaker power, but the 1.5-liter is definitely the better choice. Overall, it's quite suitable for novice drivers or budget-conscious owners, with affordable repair costs for engine components.

Over the years, I've encountered many Geely Free Cruisers, most equipped with 1.5L or 1.6L gasoline engines. The first-generation models might have used 1.3L Mitsubishi engines, while later facelifts adopted Geely's in-house MR479Q series. The power delivery is smooth, adequate for city commuting, though highway acceleration feels mediocre. In terms of durability, regular maintenance can prevent common issues like carbon buildup – I personally make it a habit to check the air filter every six months. Engine noise is noticeable at idle but remains acceptable while driving. Maintenance costs are low with readily available parts; for instance, replacing spark plugs won't cost much. Fuel consumption averages around 7.5L/100km. I'd advise against overloading during long trips to avoid overheating risks. The engine's affordability is this car's main draw, offering practical overall performance for family use – even repair shops consider it a top entry-level choice.

In my experience with cars, I've come across quite a few Geely Freedom models, typically equipped with 1.5L or 1.6L gasoline engines. Early versions used Mitsubishi technology, while later models featured Geely's in-house production. Common issues include aging ignition coils and carbon buildup in fuel injectors, leading to starting difficulties or increased fuel consumption. Key maintenance points involve regular oil changes and belt inspections, with semi-synthetic oil recommended to extend engine life. The engine outputs around 70-80 kilowatts, providing adequate power for daily use but struggling slightly at high speeds. Its simple design results in low repair costs, and most minor issues I've encountered were fixed with small repairs. Owners are advised to pay attention to unusual engine noises and get them checked early to avoid major overhauls. Overall, it's a reliable car that can last several years with proper maintenance.

What time is the highway free during National Day?

Free access starts at 00:00 on the first day of the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival holiday and ends at 24:00 on the last day of the holiday. Here are the relevant regulations for free highway access: 1. The exit time from the highway is used as the criterion for determining whether it is free: If you enter the highway during the free period but exit outside the free period, it does not count as free passage; conversely, if you enter the highway outside the free period but exit during the free period, it still counts as free. 2. Requirements for the scope of vehicles eligible for free passage: The highway only provides free passage for passenger vehicles with 7 seats or fewer (including 7 seats), including motorcycles allowed to drive on the highway.

Does the Heater Consume Fuel?

Heater does not consume fuel. The following are specific instructions for using the car heater: 1. How to turn it on: First, start the engine to warm it up. Wait until the engine temperature gauge needle reaches the middle position, then turn on the heater air conditioning. Set the air circulation to external circulation to expel the cold air inside the car. After waiting for 2-3 minutes, switch the air circulation to internal circulation. 2. Opening the window is necessary when using the heater for a long time: The heater should not blow directly at the head, as prolonged exposure can cause driver fatigue and affect driving safety. Therefore, it is recommended to open the window slightly to allow air circulation when using the heater for an extended period. This ensures the oxygen level inside the car and keeps the driver alert.

How to Distinguish Between the Accelerator and Brake Pedals?

Here are the specific methods to distinguish between the accelerator and brake pedals: 1. Automatic transmission models: The leftmost pedal is the brake, and the rightmost is the accelerator. Automatic transmission models do not require manual gear shifting, as the car shifts gears automatically, so there is no clutch pedal—only the accelerator and brake, both controlled by the right foot. During driving, the left foot should not rest on the brake pedal. 2. Manual transmission models: The middle pedal is the brake, and the rightmost is the accelerator. Manual transmission models have three pedals, arranged from left to right as follows: clutch pedal, brake pedal, and accelerator pedal. In manual transmission models, the clutch pedal should only be pressed with the left foot when shifting gears; during normal driving, the left foot should not rest on any pedal. Both the brake and accelerator are controlled by the right foot.

Why was the Zhonghua V7 discontinued?

Poor owner feedback: After exceeding 20,000 kilometers, problems emerged continuously. The engine vibrated noticeably, even more severe than a three-cylinder engine, and jerking was also very pronounced. Within just a few months, numerous quality issues appeared. Initially, there was abnormal noise when braking, followed by abnormal noise from the rear suspension. The window seals also lifted, and the windows would rebound when closing, requiring multiple attempts to shut properly. The headlights would sometimes suddenly stop working. Here are the specific details of the Zhonghua V7: 1. Vehicle Positioning: The Zhonghua V7 is the flagship SUV model under the Zhonghua brand, with dimensions of 4702mm × 1932mm × 1753mm and a wheelbase of 2770mm. 2. Powertrain: The Zhonghua V7 is equipped with a 1.6T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 204 horsepower and a maximum torque of 280 Nm. The transmission system includes a 6-speed manual or a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. 3. Features: Standard features across all trims include front seatbelt reminder, ESP, ABS, electronic brake-force distribution, traction control, brake assist, hill-start assist, hill descent control, electronic parking brake, AutoHold automatic parking, collision emergency system, engine immobilizer, rear parking sensors, 360° panoramic camera, power windows for all doors, and automatic door locking while driving. Mid-range models and above add multiple driving modes (Normal/Economy/Sport), front parking sensors, pre-collision safety system, and automatic emergency braking. The flagship model also includes lane departure warning, auto-dimming rearview mirror, and blind-spot monitoring.

What does simulated 10-speed mean?

Simulated 10-speed refers to a transmission that has 10 forward gears during operation, typically found in CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) systems. Here's a detailed introduction to the advantages and disadvantages of CVT transmissions: 1. Advantages: CVT transmissions are compact, structurally simple, easy to maintain, and provide smooth operation. They are primarily used in Japanese, Korean, and some domestic vehicles. CVT transmissions allow the engine to consistently operate within an optimal RPM range, making vehicles equipped with them generally more fuel-efficient. 2. Disadvantages: The drawbacks of CVT transmissions include lower torque capacity and susceptibility to slippage. As a result, CVT transmissions are usually paired with small-displacement engines. High-displacement engines with greater torque output typically require AT (Automatic Transmission) systems instead.
