According to official data, the GAC Trumpchi GS8 accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.85 seconds. Factors affecting a vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time are as follows: Torque: Torque, in layman's terms, represents how much force is available. The greater the torque, the more force is available to propel the vehicle, naturally resulting in faster acceleration. For comparison, the Hongqi HS5 has a maximum torque of 340 Nm and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 10 seconds. The GAC Trumpchi GS8 has a torque of 400 Nm and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.85 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission is the medium for power transfer, inevitably involving power loss. The higher the transmission efficiency, the better the acceleration performance. Generally, transmission efficiency ranks as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The GAC Trumpchi GS8 is equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission (AT). Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is called the power-to-weight ratio (unit: Hp/T). The higher the power-to-weight ratio, the faster the acceleration. The Hongqi HS5 has a power-to-weight ratio of 127 Hp/T and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 10 seconds. The GAC Trumpchi GS8 has a power-to-weight ratio of 138.8 Hp/T and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.85 seconds.

Can You Release the Clutch While Pressing the Accelerator?

You can release the clutch while pressing the accelerator when driving, but it's important to follow the correct steps. When the clutch is fully depressed, do not press the accelerator. First, shift gears. When the clutch is lifted to the semi-engagement point and held steady, you can gradually lift the clutch with your left foot while simultaneously pressing the accelerator with your right foot until the clutch is fully released. Then, move your left foot away from the clutch. Additional Information: 1. Clutch Definition: The clutch refers to the separation device between the car engine and the transmission, also known as the clutch. In automatic transmission vehicles, the clutch is integrated into the transmission to enable automatic shifting. 2. Clutch Function: The driving and driven parts of the clutch transmit torque through friction between contact surfaces, using either liquid as a transmission medium (hydraulic coupling) or magnetic force (electromagnetic clutch). This allows temporary separation and gradual engagement, permitting relative rotation between the two parts during transmission. 3. Clutch Working Principle: The torque generated by the engine is transmitted to the driven plate through friction between the flywheel, pressure plate, and the driven plate's contact surfaces. When the driver presses the clutch pedal, the mechanism causes the diaphragm spring's large end to move the pressure plate backward.

What to Do If You Are Nearsighted When Taking the Driving Test?

Nearsighted individuals can wear glasses. During the physical examination, you only need to use glasses that suit you. The same applies during the test. Below is relevant information: 1. Height: To apply for large passenger vehicles, tractors, city buses, large trucks, or trolleybuses, the height must be at least 155 cm. For medium-sized passenger vehicles, the height must be at least 150 cm. 2. Vision: For large passenger vehicles, tractors, city buses, medium-sized passenger vehicles, large trucks, trolleybuses, or trams, the naked or corrected vision of both eyes must reach at least 5.0 on the logarithmic visual acuity chart. For other vehicle types, the naked or corrected vision of both eyes must reach at least 4.9 on the logarithmic visual acuity chart. 3. Color Vision: No red-green color blindness. 4. Hearing: Both ears must be able to distinguish the direction of sound at 50 cm from a tuning fork. Those with hearing impairments who can meet the above conditions with hearing aids can apply for a driver's license for small cars or small automatic transmission vehicles. 5. Upper Limbs: Both thumbs must be intact, and each hand must have at least three other fingers intact with normal movement. However, those with missing fingertip segments or a missing right thumb can apply for a license for small cars, small automatic transmission vehicles, low-speed trucks, or three-wheeled vehicles. 6. Lower Limbs: Both lower limbs must be intact with normal movement, and the length difference must not exceed 5 cm. Those missing a left lower limb or with impaired movement can apply for a license for small automatic transmission vehicles. Those missing a right lower limb or both lower limbs but can sit independently can apply for a license for small automatic transmission vehicles designed for disabled individuals.

How many kilometers should the first maintenance be done?

Generally, vehicles require maintenance every 5,000 km/6 months. The first maintenance is the initial service for a car. Many brand 4S dealerships have shortened the maintenance interval by reminding customers to perform maintenance at 3,000 km/3 months, with whichever milestone comes first being the determining factor. Exceeding the manufacturer's specified mileage or time limit for the first maintenance at the 4S dealership may affect the owner's three-guarantee rights. Additional information: 1. Check the engine's working condition: such as whether all pipe connections are normal, if there are any leakage points, whether the engine sounds normal, and if there are any abnormal noises, etc. 2. Inspect the wear level of brake pads and tires: after lifting the vehicle, check if there is any deformation or damage to the chassis caused by collisions. 3. Change the engine oil: The purpose is to ensure better lubrication for the engine, as the lubricating effect of the oil deteriorates over time, necessitating replacement.

What Are the Techniques for Shifting a Manual Transmission?

Here is an introduction to manual transmission shifting techniques: 1. Memorize the manual transmission gear diagram: The gear layout of a manual transmission car is limited to a few patterns. When sitting in the driver's seat, the first thing you should do is glance at the gear diagram on the shift lever handle. Remember not to look down at the shift lever while driving, especially in urban areas or on highways, as this can cause the vehicle to veer off course, often leading to accidents. 2. Master the clutch pedal operation: Practice more, and press the clutch pedal steadily. Develop good habits—press it all the way down and release it slowly. 3. Understand the timing for shifting gears: Shift gears when the engine speed is around 2000 RPM. First, reduce the throttle, then press the clutch pedal. This prevents the clutch from being forcibly disengaged. Then, shift gears. The upshift sequence should always be first gear → second gear → third gear → fourth gear → fifth gear. Skipping gears is not recommended. The downshift sequence depends on the vehicle speed. Generally, downshift when the engine speed drops below around 1500 RPM, depending on your car's condition. 4. Shift gears frequently while driving: Choose the appropriate gear based on the vehicle speed and road conditions. If you don't shift gears frequently, the car may lug or the engine may rev excessively, increasing wear and fuel consumption. Therefore, develop the habit of shifting gears often. 5. Make shifting movements smooth: Press the clutch pedal all the way down in one motion, and engage the gear in one smooth action. Familiarize yourself with the gear positions and practice the feel. If you encounter difficulty engaging a gear, shift to neutral, release the clutch slightly, then press it again to engage the gear. If the gear doesn't engage properly, do not release the clutch, as this can easily wear out the transmission gears.
