1.5 and 1.6 refer to the engine displacement, which is the difference in the size of the engine displacement. Below is an introduction related to car engine displacement: 1. Displacement is the total working volume of all cylinders in the engine, calculated by multiplying the volume swept by the piston from top dead center to bottom dead center by the number of cylinders. Displacement is a crucial structural parameter that comprehensively measures the size of the engine. The performance indicators of the engine are closely related to its displacement. Generally, the larger the displacement of a car, the higher its power output. Unit displacement is commonly used as a basis for evaluating the size of different engines. 2. According to the standards in mainland China, cars are classified as follows: mini cars (displacement below 1L), compact cars (displacement between 1.0~1.6L), mid-size cars (displacement between 2.5~4.0L), and full-size cars (displacement above 4L). 3. In the past, China was a country dominated by a planned economy, with weak market awareness and low price sensitivity. At that time, cars were sold under a planned distribution model, and the classification of cars was based on engine displacement, dividing them into mini cars, compact cars, mid-size cars, mid-full-size cars, and full-size cars.

What are the reasons for difficult car starting in winter?

Car starting difficulties in winter are caused by: 1. High viscosity and poor fluidity of lubricating oil, which increases the rotational resistance of the engine crankshaft, reduces starting speed, and slows down gas flow velocity in the intake pipe; 2. Reduced battery output power due to increased electrolyte viscosity, decreased penetration capability, and heightened resistance in low temperatures; 3. Increased mixture density leading to greater resistance between electrodes. Winter car starting precautions: 1. Turn on electrical equipment like headlights and radios only after the engine is running; 2. Turn off power-consuming electrical devices before shutting down the engine; 3. Wait 30 seconds before attempting a second start if the first attempt fails; 4. Avoid high-speed driving immediately after starting; allow the vehicle sufficient warm-up time.

What is an H Engine?

H engine, also known as a horizontally opposed engine, is a type of V engine where the angle of the V is set to 180 degrees. The adjacent cylinders are arranged opposite each other, forming a horizontally opposed engine, typically with 4 or 6 cylinders. Its advantages include: low center of gravity and reduced vibration. The pistons of an H engine are evenly distributed on either side of the crankshaft, moving left and right in a horizontal plane. This design lowers the overall height and length of the engine, reduces the vehicle's center of gravity, and enhances driving stability. When the engine is mounted along the vehicle's central axis, the torque generated by the pistons on both sides cancels each other out, significantly reducing vibrations during driving. This allows for higher engine speeds and decreased noise levels.

What to Do When a Car Horn Gets Waterlogged?

Methods to deal with a waterlogged car horn: Open the horn to let it air dry, allowing the water inside to evaporate naturally, or use a dryer to dry the horn. Otherwise, prolonged exposure may cause a short circuit in the wiring. When washing the car, always remember to prevent high-pressure water jets from wetting the car horn. Methods to prevent water from entering the car horn: 1. Try to install the horn in a higher position, ensuring it is angled downward at sixty degrees; 2. Find a waterproof board and fix it in the gap between the bumper below the horn and the front of the left front wheel to effectively block water splashed up by the wheels.

Is it necessary to pay the compulsory traffic insurance and vehicle and vessel tax?

Yes, it is mandatory to purchase and pay. The vehicle and vessel tax is included in the compulsory traffic insurance as a tax fee. Compulsory traffic insurance is a mandatory insurance required by the state. Without it, you cannot drive on the road. Otherwise, according to the "Road Traffic Safety Law," you will be warned or fined between 20 and 200 yuan. Article 95 stipulates: If a motor vehicle driven on the road does not display an inspection compliance mark or insurance mark, or does not carry the vehicle license or driver's license, the traffic management department of the public security organ shall detain the motor vehicle and notify the party to provide the corresponding license, mark, or complete the required procedures. Compulsory traffic insurance for vehicles:

How to Use the Car Child Lock?

How to use the car child lock: 1. Open the rear door of the car and locate the child safety lock (rotary-type child safety lock); 2. Turn the knob of the rotary-type child safety lock towards the end with the child icon; 3. Close the door. Some passengers may find that the rear door cannot be opened from the inside but can be opened from the outside—this is actually because the child safety lock is engaged. The car child lock, also known as the door lock child safety feature, is a configuration specifically designed for child safety. When locked, children seated in the rear cannot open the door from the inside, while parents can open the door from the outside, preventing children from opening the door and falling out of the car during the ride.
