Autostop refers to the automatic engine stop. When the engine stops automatically, the tachometer needle will point to the autostop position. Below are the relevant details: Function of auto start-stop: The auto start-stop system has become increasingly popular in recent years, helping to reduce exhaust emissions and save fuel. When the engine auto start-stop function is enabled, the engine will automatically shut off when the vehicle is moving at low speeds or is stationary. How to use it: Press the start-stop button in the car to turn the function on or off. When the vehicle speed is low or the vehicle is stationary, shift the gear lever from D to neutral and press the brake pedal, and the engine will stop automatically. The tachometer needle will point to the AUTOSTOP position.
I usually drive to and from work, and the auto-stop function automatically turns off the engine when the car is stopped at a red light or in traffic, avoiding unnecessary fuel consumption. It starts up immediately when I press the accelerator, and it feels very smooth. After driving for a while, I found that it saves a lot on fuel costs, around 100 to 200 yuan per month, especially in the city. It’s also good for the environment, reducing exhaust emissions. At first, I was a bit unaccustomed to the slight vibration when starting, but I got used to it. I recommend turning it on in areas with frequent stops, and if you want to turn it off, you can find the button near the steering wheel. Overall, it’s convenient and practical, and now most new cars come equipped with it.
