Here is a detailed introduction to automotive safety systems: 1. Types: There are two categories—active safety systems and passive safety systems. 2. Active Safety Systems: Include electronic devices such as ABS and ESP. 3. Passive Safety Systems: Involve vehicle body energy-absorbing structures, seat belts, airbags, etc. Below is additional information on safety systems: 1. Assisted Deceleration: When the vehicle ahead brakes, stops, or encounters other obstacles, the active safety system automatically applies additional force to the braking system, helping the driver reduce braking distance. It can also adjust the steering wheel to alter the vehicle's path and avoid obstacles. 2. Risk Reduction: The active braking technology system can achieve active deceleration and also reduce losses and risks in emergency situations, which reflects the maturity of automotive safety.

I remember the first time I used this active braking active safety system, it made driving much more worry-free. Simply put, it's an intelligent feature in cars that uses radar and cameras to scan ahead, detecting pedestrians, vehicles, or other obstacles. If the system thinks you're about to collide and you don't react by braking, it will automatically apply the brakes to slow down or stop the car. This technology is installed in many new cars, with some brands calling it Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB). It not only helps avoid collisions but also reduces the risk of accidents, especially in high-traffic areas or during nighttime fatigue driving. However, it's important to note that sensors can occasionally be affected by dirt or weather, so checking the probes during car washes is crucial. I've experienced its intervention on the highway, preventing a rear-end collision, and it felt like an extra layer of protection.

Let's talk about the active braking system, which is essentially part of the autonomous driving assistant. I've used this system in many car models, such as Toyota's Pre-Collision System. The core principle involves real-time road condition monitoring via sensors, where algorithms process the data and automatically trigger braking when a high collision probability is predicted. The key benefit is reducing risks caused by delayed driver reaction—statistics show it can decrease accidents by 30%. This feature often works in conjunction with blind spot monitoring and lane-keeping assist to enhance overall safety. One drawback might be false alarms, like branches triggering warnings. I recommend beginners prioritize models equipped with this system and perform regular maintenance to ensure accuracy. Personally, I see it as representing the advancement of automotive intelligence—both practical and reassuring.

The Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) system, as I understand it, is the core of a vehicle's active safety. It operates using multiple sensors such as radars to detect the distance and speed of objects ahead. After assessing the risk, the system automatically applies the brakes if the driver takes no action. This effectively prevents rear-end collisions, especially in urban traffic jams or when pedestrians cross unexpectedly. I've noticed it can also adjust braking intensity to reduce the impact of sudden stops. Most brands integrate this feature, and maintenance is straightforward.

Are the Cayenne and Touareg equipped with the same three major components?

Cayenne and Touareg share the same three major components, as both vehicles are built on Volkswagen Group's latest MLB Evo platform, featuring identical engines, transmissions, and chassis. In terms of power, both models are equipped with a 3.0T turbocharged engine delivering a maximum power of 250kW and peak torque of 450Nm. The transmission system pairs an 8-speed automatic manual gearbox with the engine. Regarding the chassis, both adopt a front-four-wheel-drive layout with permanent all-wheel drive. They feature multi-link independent suspensions at both front and rear. The Touareg utilizes a Torsen differential for its central differential structure, while the Cayenne employs a multi-plate clutch. The Touareg is positioned as a balanced offering, with Volkswagen intending it to lead as the brand's premium SUV flagship.

How to Turn Off Auto Hold?

Auto Hold can be turned off by pressing the autohold switch again when the Auto Hold function is activated. Auto Hold is an automatic braking feature that eliminates the need to use the handbrake or electronic handbrake when stopping at traffic lights, simplifying operations. For automatic transmission models, it also avoids frequent shifting between D to N or D to P gears. The automatic braking function is an extension of the vehicle stability control system, which controls the four-wheel brakes through ESP. During this process, the ECU computer uses sensors installed on the vehicle to monitor the vehicle's level and wheel torque, determining whether braking is necessary to prevent rolling. The braking force applied to the wheels is moderate, just enough to stop the vehicle from moving, ensuring a smooth start when pressing the accelerator again without significant jerking.

At what position should the engine oil be on the dipstick?

Engine oil should be slightly above the middle position of the dipstick, not exceeding the upper limit and not below the lower limit, which is considered normal. The oil dipstick has two marks. Checking the oil dipstick is simple: park the car on a flat surface, turn off the engine, wait for more than an hour, then pull out the dipstick to check the oil level. When the engine is cold, it shows the total capacity of the engine oil; when the engine is hot, it shows the amount needed for proper engine lubrication. Most vehicle models require checking the oil when the engine is cold, but some specify checking it when the engine is hot. However, it is recommended to check the oil dipstick when the engine is cold to avoid starting the engine without sufficient oil.
