Pure Electric Vehicle refers to a passenger vehicle that uses on-board batteries as the power output, drives the wheels with electric motors, and meets all the requirements of road traffic, safety regulations, and national standards. Due to its environmental friendliness and relatively lower energy consumption compared to traditional fuel-powered vehicles, its prospects are widely optimistic, but it is not yet very popular and is in the development stage. The components of a pure electric vehicle include: the electric drive and control system, mechanical systems such as the drive force transmission, and working devices to complete set tasks. The electric drive and control system is the core of an electric vehicle and the biggest difference from internal combustion engine vehicles. The power source of a pure electric vehicle is entirely provided by the on-board battery. If the battery is depleted, the vehicle cannot run and needs to be charged using a charging station.

Is it necessary to use 95 octane gasoline for the CR-V?

According to the official vehicle manual recommendation, the Honda CR-V should use 92 octane gasoline. In addition to checking the suitable gasoline grade in the vehicle manual, the Honda CR-V's recommended fuel type can also be found on the fuel tank cap, which will be clearly marked. Generally, the gasoline grade can also be determined based on the engine's compression ratio. Vehicles with an engine compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should use 92 octane gasoline, while those with a compression ratio between 10.0-11.5 should use 95 octane gasoline. However, with the application of new technologies, the compression ratio alone cannot determine the appropriate gasoline grade, as high compression ratios can also be adjusted to use lower octane gasoline. This is because, besides the compression ratio, other factors such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology also play a role. Generally speaking, the higher the gasoline grade, the higher the octane number and the better the anti-knock performance. 92 octane gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 octane gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. If the Honda CR-V occasionally uses the wrong gasoline grade, simply switching back to the correct grade after consumption is sufficient. However, long-term use of the wrong gasoline grade can have the following effects: For vehicles recommended to use lower octane gasoline, using higher octane gasoline will not cause damage, but the increase in octane number may alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This means both the engine's power output and thermal efficiency will decrease, resulting in poorer performance. For vehicles recommended to use higher octane gasoline, using lower octane gasoline can cause engine knocking. Due to the significantly lower octane number, the fuel's ignition point decreases, causing premature ignition during the compression stroke. If the fuel ignites before the spark plug fires, resistance will occur during the upward stroke. This resistance makes the engine run very unstably. If the knocking is imperceptible, it may only increase noise without obvious damage to the engine. However, noticeable knocking indicates severe engine conditions, affecting not only driving stability but also causing abnormal wear on the pistons and cylinders, and in severe cases, cylinder scoring.

Is it allowed to reverse when making a U-turn?

At traffic lights, if a U-turn is not successfully completed, you are allowed to reverse and adjust your position, as long as it does not interfere with the movement of other vehicles, and it is not considered a traffic violation. Circumstances under which U-turns are permitted: Presence of U-turn signals or signs: When there is a U-turn signal at an intersection, a U-turn is allowed when the U-turn signal is green. If there is a U-turn sign or a U-turn indication on the lane, a U-turn can be made while ensuring the safety of yourself and others. No U-turn sign but left turns are allowed (no prohibition of U-turn signs): Vehicles can make a U-turn at intersections where left turns are permitted and there are no signs or markings prohibiting U-turns. It is important to note that vehicles must proceed according to the left-turn signal without interfering with the normal movement of other vehicles. If making a U-turn at an intersection with a left-turn waiting area, you can first enter the waiting area when the straight signal is green and wait until the left-turn signal turns green to make the U-turn. U-turns are allowed at dashed lines: Whether it is a white or yellow dashed line, U-turns are permitted. For double yellow lines with one solid and one dashed, check if your side is the dashed line; if so, a U-turn is allowed safely. If it is a solid line, U-turns are not permitted. If encountering double yellow lines at an intersection, you can make a U-turn from the dashed side, but you must not cross the stop line ahead. U-turns are allowed at yellow grid lines: Parking is prohibited in yellow grid areas, but as long as there is no central barrier, you can make a U-turn here after yielding to normally moving vehicles. U-turns are allowed on the side with dashed lines near green belts: When the area in front of the green belt is a dashed line, vehicles on that side can make a U-turn from there. If the area in front of the green belt is a solid line, vehicles must follow the traffic signal, cross the pedestrian crossing before making a U-turn, and must not cross the solid line or the pedestrian crossing. Precautions for making U-turns: When making a U-turn, you should activate the left turn signal in advance, and the maximum speed should not exceed 30 kilometers per hour. Do not obstruct other vehicles or pedestrians moving normally.

Why can't the overhead light of the Volkswagen Lavida be turned off?

Lavida's overhead light staying on is due to the reading light switch being activated. Here is some information about the reading light: 1. Introduction: The reading light provides sufficient brightness for passengers when the interior lighting is insufficient, facilitating reading inside the car without affecting the driver's normal operation. Connected to the cigarette lighter socket, it can emit lights of different colors when the switch is pressed. 2. Types: Current car reading lights include ordinary reading lights (single bulb) and LED reading lights (multiple LED lights). They have a long lifespan, generally lasting tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of hours.

What is the engine displacement of the BMW 318?

BMW 318's engine displacement is 2.0L. Here are the details about the BMW 318 engine: 1. In terms of power, the BMW 318 is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, which is a three-cylinder engine. 2. This engine has a maximum power output of 100kW and a maximum torque of 220 Nm. In terms of the transmission system, it is paired with an 8-speed automatic manual transmission. 3. Compared to a four-cylinder engine, the three-cylinder engine has one less cylinder, so the engine displacement is reduced. Additionally, the engine's size is smaller, and the displacement is also reduced, which naturally leads to lower fuel consumption.

What does the Land Cruiser's tank turn mean?

Land Cruiser's tank turn refers to turning in place by locking the rear wheels during the turn, enabling the vehicle to make U-turns in relatively narrow spaces. This design proves highly practical in confined areas, eliminating the need for repeated reversing. The Toyota Land Cruiser is a mid-to-large SUV under FAW Toyota, jointly developed by Toyota Motor Corporation and the Calty Design Research Center. Taking the 2016 Land Cruiser 4.0L Automatic VX-R as an example, its powertrain is equipped with a 4.0L naturally aspirated engine delivering a maximum power of 202kW and maximum torque of 385Nm. The engine block adopts an aluminum alloy structure with multi-point fuel injection, paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission.
