Shelby is a Ford Mustang sports car series, also known as Shelby Cobra. Mustang refers to the standard model with a horse emblem on the front, while Shelby models feature a cobra emblem as they are modified versions. 1. Powertrain: The engine utilizes a Roots-type supercharger to provide 0.6 kg/cm² of boost pressure for forced induction. The Shelby GT500 features a cast iron cylinder block. It incorporates four-valve aluminum cylinder heads, piston rings, and bearings from the Ford GT project, giving the powertrain high-level performance durability. 2. Exterior and Interior: The aggressive front-end design includes large upper and lower grille openings with a functional air splitter. The famous cobra emblem floats in the center of the upper intake, replacing the small horse emblem found on other Mustang models. The angled headlight openings on both sides further enhance the stunning appearance of the front end.

Is Bluetooth Required for ETC Driving?

When using ETC on highways, there is no need to turn on the car's Bluetooth or mobile phone Bluetooth. The ETC junction box installed in the car has a short-range communication response system inside, which automatically communicates with sensors on the road, and neither the car nor the phone needs to turn on Bluetooth. ETC is currently provided by 8 domestic manufacturers, and some ETC terminals can only be installed via mobile Bluetooth during installation, but Bluetooth does not need to be turned on during use. ETC is the abbreviation of Electronic-Toll-Collection, meaning electronic toll collection system. To apply for ETC, the owner needs to provide valid ID and vehicle license in original and copy. If the application is not made by the owner, the agent's valid ID is also required. The copy of the vehicle license needs to include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp; a bank card for deducting highway tolls; the applicant must be between 18 and 60 years old; and the vehicle must be registered under a personal name. Documents required for company vehicles: Introduction letter from the vehicle owner (with official seal); copy of the organization code certificate or business license (with official seal); original ID of the agent; original vehicle license; vehicle that needs ETC. How ETC works: Through the on-board electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield, it communicates with the microwave antenna in the ETC lane of the toll station, and uses computer networking technology to settle with the bank in the background, allowing the vehicle to pay the highway or bridge toll without stopping when passing through the toll station. Benefits of installing ETC: Save time: Avoid the hassle of queuing and waiting; Green and environmentally friendly: Green and low-carbon, vehicles passing through the toll station without stopping can reduce noise and exhaust emissions and pollution; Save wear and tear: Save costs, reduce the frequency of vehicle starting and braking, reduce wear and fuel consumption, users can enjoy toll discounts; Improve efficiency: The ETC lane passing efficiency can theoretically be increased by 2-3 times or more, making traditional ETC updated, faster, and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous.

Can a motorcycle still undergo inspection after being overdue for one year?

Motorcycles overdue for inspection for one year can still undergo annual inspection. As long as it is within three years, the vehicle can normally participate in the annual inspection. However, overdue inspection needs to be handled promptly. Failure to conduct the annual inspection on time is considered overdue inspection. Below is a detailed introduction about overdue vehicle inspection: Overview: If the vehicle is overdue for inspection for less than 3 months, you only need to go directly to make up for it, and generally, a verbal warning will be given. If the overdue period is more than 3 months but less than two years, a certain fine will usually be imposed when making up for it. If the vehicle has not been inspected for more than two years, the vehicle file will be directly canceled. If you want to restore the file, you generally need to pay a fine before it can be restored. Once the vehicle is overdue for inspection, it will bear full responsibility in case of any accident. Others: The required documents for vehicle annual inspection (individual) mainly include the original driving license and road and bridge card, copy of compulsory traffic insurance, road and bridge ticket, copy of the owner's ID card, vehicle, etc.

Can a New Car Involved in an Accident Be Replaced with a New One?

No. Only direct economic losses are compensated, and there is no right to demand a replacement with a new car. Below is the insurance claim process for a motor vehicle accident where the driver is fully at fault: Reporting the Accident: After a traffic accident occurs, the first thing to do is to report it promptly. Generally, insurance companies require the policyholder to report the incident within 48 hours, or within 24 hours in cases of theft. If there are casualties, immediately call 120 for emergency medical assistance. Inspection: After reporting the accident, the insurance company will send personnel to inspect the scene to determine if it falls within the coverage of the insurance policy. Therefore, before the insurance company personnel arrive, the vehicle owner must protect the accident scene. If the accident causes traffic congestion, the owner can negotiate with traffic police to move the vehicle to the side while waiting for further handling. Damage Assessment: In most cases, if the vehicle damage is not severe, the insurance company's surveyor can conduct the damage assessment on-site, and the customer can drive the car directly to the repair shop. However, if the vehicle is significantly damaged, the assessment must be conducted at a designated damage assessment center.

Where is the air conditioning switch located in a car?

Introduction to the location of the air conditioning switch in a car: The car air conditioning is generally located in the middle-lower part of the center console. The A/C button is the air conditioning switch. The first button above is for temperature adjustment. The second button is for adjusting the fan speed, and turning it to 0 turns it off. The third button is for adjusting the air outlet direction, which includes the head, hands, and feet. Below is an introduction to car air conditioning maintenance: 1. Do not randomly adjust the air outlet direction: When using the air conditioning, not paying attention to the direction of the air flow will affect the performance of the air conditioning. According to the principle that cold air sinks and hot air rises, the correct approach is to point the air outlet upward when using the cooling function and downward when using the heating function. 2. Regularly start the air conditioning in winter: In some regions where winters are relatively warm, some car owners do not use the air conditioning at all during the winter. Prolonged disuse can cause the rubber seals to age, and the lubricating oil on the internal components of the air conditioning can dry out. Regularly starting the air conditioning allows the components to be lubricated, maintaining good condition. Therefore, it is best to start the air conditioning at least once a week during winter. 3. Avoid using the air conditioning for too long each time: Some drivers turn on the air conditioning as soon as they get in the car and keep it running for extended periods. Prolonged use can increase the pressure on the condenser, causing wear and tear on the cooling system. Therefore, it is advisable not to use the air conditioning for too long each time. If the temperature inside the car has reached a comfortable level, you can turn off the air conditioning and turn it back on after a while. 4. In summer, ventilate and cool down before driving, then switch to internal circulation: In hot summers, many drivers habitually turn on the internal circulation of the air conditioning as soon as they get in the car, thinking it will cool the interior faster. However, since the temperature inside the car is higher than outside, this approach is ineffective. Upon entering the car, you should first open the windows for ventilation and turn on the external circulation to expel the hot air. After the interior temperature has dropped, you can then switch to internal circulation.

Is it necessary to clean the radiator when replacing antifreeze?

Replacing antifreeze requires cleaning the radiator. When changing antifreeze, the old antifreeze should be completely drained, the cooling system thoroughly cleaned, and then new antifreeze should be added. Method for replacing antifreeze: Before completely replacing the antifreeze, conduct a comprehensive inspection first to check for any signs of leakage or cracks in all pipes, with a focus on inspecting the five-way hose. The five-way hose gets its name from having five connecting interfaces to various parts. Antifreeze flows through the five-way hose and is then distributed to different parts of the car to function. If there is any leakage of antifreeze in this part, the hose should be replaced or the interface re-secured as needed. Drain the old antifreeze, then flush the liquid channels with clean water. Add clean water to the antifreeze reservoir, then continuously inject water into the reservoir to allow clean water to flow through the engine cooling system. Start the engine and let it idle for 3 to 5 minutes to circulate the water. Initially, the water flowing out of the reservoir will be slightly pinkish. Continue adding clean water until clear water flows out. Note: Don't forget to remove the heater hose and drain the water from the heater core. After draining for about an hour, add the new antifreeze through the radiator hose, which allows the antifreeze to flow quickly into the radiator. Then add another container of antifreeze to the antifreeze reservoir until it is nearly full. Start the engine and let it run for about 10 minutes. At this point, the coolant level will drop slightly as some air is expelled from the cooling system. Add more antifreeze until it reaches the "MAXT" mark on the reservoir.
