The following are the differences between unleaded gasoline and ethanol gasoline: 1. Different additives: Gasoline is a fraction collected from petroleum, which is a hydrocarbon (mainly alkanes, with a small amount of olefins). It does not contain lead by itself. However, because gasoline is unstable and prone to explosion, lead-containing anti-knock agents were originally added to gasoline. 2. Different levels of pollution: After gasoline is burned, it is discharged from the exhaust pipe, causing certain pollution. Nowadays, gasoline mostly uses unleaded anti-knock agents, which means it is unleaded gasoline. (Most of the 90#, 93#, and 97# gasoline on the market is lead-free). Ethanol gasoline is gasoline mixed with a certain amount of ethanol, approximately 15%. The purpose of this is that ethanol is a renewable energy source and is relatively inexpensive, making its use more economical. This type of gasoline is called ethanol gasoline. (It should be emphasized here that the essence of ethanol gasoline is still gasoline, just containing ethanol).

What does the 'A' on a car mean?

The 'A' on a car refers to the vehicle's Auto Hold function. Vehicles equipped with an electronic parking brake typically come with the Auto Hold feature, which is not enabled by default and requires the driver to manually activate it. Once the Auto Hold function is activated, it eliminates the need for frequent operation of the handbrake or electronic parking brake. For automatic transmission models, it also reduces the need to frequently switch between D to N or D to P. When the vehicle brakes during driving and comes to a complete stop, even if the brake pedal is released, the vehicle will not necessarily continue moving. It will only proceed forward when the accelerator pedal is pressed again. The English name for Auto Hold is AUTOHOLD, and this button is usually located next to the electronic parking brake.

How Long Can Temporary License Plates Be Used in Beijing?

In Beijing, most temporary license plates are valid for 7 days and can be issued up to three times, meaning the maximum duration for temporary plates is 21 days. Temporary license plates are paper-based permits that allow vehicles to be driven on roads before official registration. They are issued by the vehicle management department of the public security bureau. There are four types of temporary license plates: temporary plates for administrative districts, temporary plates for cross-administrative districts, temporary plates for testing purposes, and temporary plates for special vehicles. The use of temporary plates is time-limited and region-specific. Temporary plates are made of paper and do not need to be fixed to the front or rear of the vehicle body. However, they must be properly affixed to the inside of the front and rear windshields as per regulations. Failure to do so is equivalent to driving without a license plate.
