The difference between Changan Oushang and Changan Automobile is that Changan Automobile is the company, while Changan Oushang is just one of the car models under the Changan Automobile company. Interior of Changan Oushang: The interior design of Changan Oushang is very avant-garde and technological, featuring a combination of black materials and silver decorations. The most notable feature is the fully digital LCD integrated instrument panel, along with a large-sized display for the human-machine interaction system, rearview camera, hill-start assist, traction control system, multifunctional steering wheel, Bluetooth phone, electric sunroof, and other configurations. The new car also performs well in terms of noise reduction, with an interior noise level of only 39 decibels at idle. Space in Changan Oushang: It adopts a 2+3+2 seating layout, with foldable second and third-row seats, allowing for a very flat trunk space when the seats are folded down. Powertrain: Oushang will be equipped with a 1.5L engine.

I've personally experienced the difference between Changan Oushang and Changan. Changan is the general name of the automobile group, like an elder-level old brand, covering various models such as sedans and SUVs, with solid and reliable craftsmanship but relatively conservative design; Changan Oushang, on the other hand, is their sub-brand, targeting young consumers, with more emphasis on SUVs and MPVs, not to mention affordable prices, and a more fashionable and sporty appearance. For example, I have a Changan CS75, which is steady and durable, while my friend's Changan Oushang X7 is light and good-looking, suitable for urban commuting. In the end, Oushang was launched to attract the post-90s and post-00s market, with a more segmented positioning and a lower price range, suitable for groups with limited budgets. If you want to buy a practical and cost-effective car, Oushang is definitely worth a look; if you pursue a classic brand image, Changan's traditional series is more reliable. In short, both are good choices, depending on your needs and preferences.

I've been following automotive news, and the difference between Changan and Changan Oushang can be simply summarized as a difference in brand strategy. Changan Automobile is a long-established state-owned enterprise with a wide product line, ranging from compact sedans to MPVs, and series like the EADO have a good reputation. Changan Oushang, on the other hand, is a new sub-brand launched in 2018, specifically targeting the youth market with trendy designs, such as the stylish interior of the Z6 model, and generally offers lower prices compared to similar Changan models. I've seen many family users choose Changan Oushang because of its high cost-performance ratio and lower maintenance costs. In fact, Oushang can be seen as Changan's younger sibling in a niche market, catering to the economically practical crowd. Don't forget, when buying a car, a test drive can help you feel the difference—Oushang offers more agile handling, while Changan provides a more balanced experience. There's no right or wrong in this distinction; it purely depends on personal style and budget.

From my perspective, the biggest difference between Changan Oushang and Changan lies in their product positioning. Changan is the parent brand, offering a wide range of classic models with strong reliability; Oushang is a sub-series, focusing on SUVs/MPVs with a youthful style and affordable pricing, targeting cost-conscious consumers. In real-world experience, Oushang's designs are more fashionable.

What should not be used to extinguish a motor vehicle fuel fire?

When a motor vehicle fuel fire occurs, water should not be used for extinguishing. Below are relevant details about fuel fires: 1. Reason: Water cannot be used to extinguish a motor vehicle fuel fire because fuel is lighter than water. When water comes into contact with fuel, instead of covering the fuel, it carries the fuel and spreads it around, thereby expanding the fire. Carbon dioxide fire extinguishers are also not suitable for extinguishing the fire because it is not an enclosed space. 2. Precautions: When a car engine catches fire, the driver should quickly stop the vehicle, allow passengers to open the doors and exit, then cut off the power supply, take out the onboard fire extinguisher, and aim directly at the base of the flames to spray vigorously and extinguish the fire.

How to Ensure Safe Driving of Special Vehicles

Here are the introductions for ensuring safe driving of special vehicles: 1. Avoid fatigued driving: During driving, factors such as road conditions, vehicles, pedestrians, and environment often create tension for drivers, leading to psychological or physiological dysfunction and overall decline in physical capabilities. When fatigued, drivers may experience lack of energy, dizziness, reduced judgment, inability to cope, slow or inappropriate responses to environmental changes, which can easily cause traffic accidents. 2. Never drive under the influence: Alcohol primarily anesthetizes the central nervous system, inhibiting higher brain functions, and impairing perception, especially vision, motor skills, and judgment. According to relevant data, drunk driving accounts for a significant proportion of traffic accidents, approximately 6-10%. 3. Avoid driving with negative emotions: Emotions greatly influence driving. Positively, they can mobilize all physical and mental potential, bringing vigor, comfort, and courage to overcome difficulties, thereby improving driving efficiency.

Will Using Air Conditioning in a Car Drain the Battery?

When the engine is not running, using the air conditioning will drain the battery because the car's electrical systems are powered by the battery before the alternator starts. Once the engine is running, the alternator supplies power, and the battery is not used. Summer air conditioning usage tips: 1. Avoid setting the temperature too low: A significant difference between the interior and exterior temperatures can negatively affect your health, leading to headaches, colds, hormonal imbalances, and other illnesses. Additionally, keeping the air conditioning at the lowest setting for extended periods increases the workload on the compressor and raises fuel consumption. 2. Alternate between recirculation and fresh air modes: Prolonged use of recirculation mode reduces oxygen levels inside the car, preventing fresh air from entering and worsening air quality. This can cause hypoxia, leading to headaches and dizziness, which is highly dangerous while driving. The correct approach is to alternate between recirculation and fresh air modes—use fresh air mode in areas with good air quality and recirculation mode in areas with poor air quality.

Which is more fuel-efficient, 1.5T or 2.0L cars?

1.5T models are more fuel-efficient. From a fuel consumption perspective, turbocharged engines (marked with T) increase air intake and correspondingly require more fuel injection compared to naturally aspirated engines of the same displacement (1.5L). Although gasoline burns more completely, the fuel consumption is still lower than that of 2.0L engines. Therefore, 1.5T engines are more fuel-efficient than 2.0L ones. Differences between 1.5T and 2.0L cars: Different engines: T stands for turbocharged engine, 1.5 indicates the displacement, so 1.5T means a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine. 2.0L refers to a naturally aspirated engine with a two-liter displacement. Different performance: The 1.5T engine can increase air intake, providing more power compared to a 1.5L engine. However, during the initial acceleration phase, the vehicle relies on the power output from its own displacement, and the turbocharger's effect is not evident. Generally, the turbocharger only starts to work when the engine speed reaches 1,500 rpm after starting, at which point the vehicle's enhanced power becomes noticeable. The 2.0L engine relies solely on its own displacement for power output. It generates the vehicle's driving force through normal gasoline combustion. These engines experience less wear, are relatively cheaper to maintain, and have a longer service life. However, their power output is comparatively weaker.

What is a Driving School File?

Driving school file refers to the archival materials required when applying for a motor vehicle driver's license. Below are specific details about driving school files: 1. Content: It includes the applicant's ID card copy, medical condition certification information for motor vehicle drivers, as well as study duration and test scores of relevant subjects for the driver's license. The driving school file is kept by the driving school and will later be submitted to the vehicle management office.
