7-seater and 6-seater cars do not differ much in terms of space performance; it is merely a matter of the number of seats. Additionally, it is rare for a family to have 7 members traveling together—6 members are already considered a very uncommon travel size. Therefore, when purchasing a car, there is no need to insist on buying a model with an excessively large interior space. The differences between 6-seaters and 7-seaters are as follows: 1. Different insurance premiums: Insurance companies generally classify small passenger vehicles into categories such as 6-seaters and below, and 6-10 seaters. Different vehicle categories are subject to different rate standards. Thus, for insurance purposes, 5-seaters and 6-seaters/7-seaters fall into two different categories, using different base rates. The difference between 6-seaters and 7-seaters lies only in whether one more or one less seat insurance is purchased. 2. Differences in annual inspections: According to annual inspection regulations, 6-seater cars (and below) enjoy exemption from inspection for the first 6 years, while 7-seater cars with more than 6 seats do not qualify for this exemption and must undergo inspections on time—once every two years within the first 6 years. After 6 years, all vehicle types are subject to annual inspections. Of course, not all 5-seater and 6-seater cars can enjoy the 6-year exemption; the vehicle must not have been involved in any personal injury accidents in the previous year. The so-called exemption mainly refers to exemption from the inspection line, but the biennial review is still required. One must bring a valid compulsory insurance policy and the original vehicle license to the vehicle management department to complete the annual inspection. Therefore, in terms of annual inspection matters, only 5-seater and 6-seater cars within 6 years of age that have not been involved in personal injury accidents can be exempted from on-site inspections; in all other cases, the requirements are the same.

Is it necessary to clean the car engine compartment? How to clean it?

Cleaning the car engine compartment is necessary. Reasons for cleaning the engine compartment: 1. Too much oil and dirt accumulated in the engine compartment can cause spontaneous combustion under high temperatures; 2. It affects the heat dissipation of the engine, leading to excessively high temperatures in the engine compartment. On one hand, this affects the engine's lifespan, and on the other hand, it accelerates the aging of internal components such as wiring harnesses, posing safety hazards. Methods for cleaning the engine compartment: Use a brush to simply clean surface dust, especially in the gaps. If dust cannot be brushed off, wipe it with a damp cloth. For stubborn oil stains that cannot be removed with a damp cloth, spray engine cleaner and scrub with a brush, avoiding spraying on wire connections as much as possible. Finally, rinse with water and wipe clean with a towel.
