The differences between the total mass and the curb weight on the vehicle license are as follows: 1. Different scope: The total mass of the vehicle = curb weight + driver and passenger mass + luggage mass. The scope of the total mass is larger. 2. Different indicators: The curb weight of the vehicle is closely related to the design level, manufacturing level, and industrialization level of the vehicle, while the total mass represents the sum of all masses. Extended information: 1. The curb weight of the vehicle refers to the weight of the vehicle when it is fully equipped according to the factory technical conditions (such as spare tires, tools, etc.) and all fluids are filled. The total mass (G) of the vehicle refers to the weight when the vehicle is fully equipped and loaded with passengers (including the driver) and cargo as specified. 2. The curb weight of the vehicle, also known as the unladen weight, refers to the fully equipped mass of the vehicle, including lubricants, fuel, onboard tools, spare tires, and all other devices. The curb weight is commonly referred to as the vehicle's own weight, and its standard definition is the dry mass of the vehicle plus the mass of coolant and fuel (not less than 90% of the tank capacity) as well as the spare wheel and onboard accessories.

Where is the start-stop switch located on the Honda Elysion?

The start-stop switch of the Elysion is located on the lower left control panel, marked with an A-OFF symbol. The advantages and disadvantages of the engine auto start-stop function are as follows: Advantages of the auto start-stop function: It can reduce unnecessary fuel consumption, lower emissions, and improve fuel economy. In urban traffic, when waiting for traffic lights or in traffic jams, it can minimize the engine idle time. Additionally, after the engine shuts off, its power supply can replace the pulley to provide operating power for the engine cooling fan and the car's air conditioning system. Disadvantages of the auto start-stop function: It requires more durable starters and batteries. Conventional starter designs allow for high operating currents but are intended for short usage periods. Repeated use of the starter can easily cause overheating and damage, so starters with auto start-stop functionality must be much more durable than regular starters. At the same time, the increased number of battery charge and discharge cycles can also have a certain impact on battery life.

When will the vehicle qualification certificate be issued when buying a car?

The vehicle qualification certificate will be obtained on the day of delivery. The following points should be noted when buying a car: Pay attention to the contract: When signing the car purchase contract and other contract materials, pay attention to every detail of the contract, especially the difference between "deposit" and "down payment". A single word difference may result in the inability to refund the car purchase fee. Note that the down payment must be refunded, while the deposit may not be refundable. Obtain all vehicle documents: Such as the car purchase invoice, qualification certificate, vehicle conformity certificate, motor vehicle registration certificate, three-guarantee certificate, vehicle user manual, etc. These must be checked for completeness before payment when picking up the new car. If any document is missing, it should be requested from the 4S store promptly.

Why do you have to wait ten days if you fail the second subject?

You have to wait ten days if you fail the second subject because of the large number of candidates and limited test sites. Below is an introduction to the second subject test: Subject deduction details: Not wearing a seat belt deducts 100 points, starting with the gear not in neutral deducts 100 points, not using the turn signal or improper use of the turn signal deducts 10 points, stalling once during the test deducts 10 points, wheels pressing the edge line deducts 100 points, stopping for more than two seconds during the test deducts 5 points, not following the prescribed route deducts 100 points, driving out of order deducts 100 points, reversing into the garage deducts 100 points, exiting the car deducts 100 points. Subject test precautions: Before starting, clean the rearview mirrors and window frames on both sides of the car, adjust the rearview mirrors on both sides after getting in, adjust the seat and fix it. Be sure to fasten your seat belt. It is best to choose the last location for the reverse garage test. You can stop and wait a while before entering the garage. After entering the garage, there will be a broadcast in the car, "Reverse garage test begins."

What does 225/55zr17 mean?

225 indicates the width of the tire tread; 55 represents the aspect ratio of the tire, commonly understood as the thickness of the tire sidewall, calculated by multiplying the tread width by the aspect ratio; 17 is the size of the rim that the tire fits, with 17 meaning a 17-inch rim. The ZR in the tire specification 225/55ZR17 is a combined term, indicating that the tire's maximum applicable speed exceeds 240 km/h. Additional information: The wider the tire, the larger the contact area. Given the same tread pattern and material, a wider tire will provide better grip and traction when driving in a straight line.

What are the reasons for the high fuel consumption of the Hyundai Mistra?

Modern Mistra's high fuel consumption is caused by aging spark plugs, aging air filters, and carbon buildup on the oxygen sensor. Below are detailed explanations for the above reasons: Aging spark plugs: Aging spark plugs can cause difficulty in cold starts, and in severe cases, can lead to stalling, resulting in unburned fuel being expelled from the cylinder, thereby increasing fuel consumption. Aging air filter: An aging or clogged air filter can lead to insufficient air intake, which directly results in incomplete fuel combustion, leading to carbon buildup, insufficient power, and increased fuel consumption. Carbon buildup on the oxygen sensor: The oxygen sensor detects exhaust by analyzing the oxygen content in the exhaust gas. Prolonged use of the vehicle can cause carbon buildup on the oxygen sensor, leading to inaccurate data and increased fuel consumption.

What is the difference between pure electric passenger vehicles and pure electric commercial vehicles?

Pure electric passenger vehicles are not included in the vehicle and vessel tax catalog and are not subject to the vehicle and vessel tax, while commercial vehicles in the catalog, regardless of whether they are new energy vehicles, are all subject to taxation, but new energy commercial vehicles are exempt from tax. Thus, pure electric passenger vehicles are not taxed, while commercial vehicles are tax-exempt. The following are the basic principles of pure electric vehicles: 1. Working principle of electric vehicles: Battery—Current—Power regulator—Motor—Power transmission system—Driving the vehicle. 2. Technical principles: (1) Pure electric vehicles replace the internal combustion engine with an electric motor, equivalent to an automatic transmission. (2) Traditional internal combustion engines can only produce efficient torque within a narrow range of speeds, which is why traditional internal combustion engine vehicles require large and complex transmission systems; pure electric vehicles do not need gear-shifting transmissions during operation, making them easier and more convenient to control. (3) Compared to hybrid vehicles, pure electric vehicles use a single electric energy source, and the electronic control system significantly reduces the mechanical transmission system inside the vehicle, also lowering energy loss and noise caused by friction between mechanical parts, saving space and weight inside the vehicle.
