Taking the Borgward BX5 as an example, its engine model is BWE418A, which is a 1.8L turbocharged engine equipped with technologies such as variable intake manifold, direct fuel injection, and dual VVT. The Borgward BX5 is built based on the European ENCAP 5-star safety standard, with body dimensions of 4483mm in length, 1876mm in width, and 1677mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2685mm. In terms of appearance, the Borgward BX5 follows the family design style of Borgward, featuring a youthful and handsome front face. The rear of the vehicle is very full, with exquisite tail lights on both sides, and the black lower trim gives the entire rear of the vehicle a strong sense of sportiness.

While learning about cars, I found Borgward's engine models quite interesting, mainly designed according to different vehicle models. For example, the Borgward BX5 commonly uses a 1.4T turbocharged engine, model 4G14TI, which is developed based on Foton's technology, with an output power of around 150 horsepower. It's quite suitable for city driving because it's fuel-efficient at low RPMs, making it ideal for daily commuting. The BX7 is even more powerful, equipped with a 2.0T engine, model BWE420B, capable of reaching 224 horsepower, providing great stability during highway driving or when carrying heavy loads. Although Borgward has German origins, after its revival, it's produced in China, and these engines have been locally adjusted to match automatic transmissions, offering reliable overall performance. Regarding oil changes and maintenance, I recommend regular check-ups and not overlooking cooling issues, especially during high-temperature summer operations, as carbon buildup can accumulate and affect lifespan. However, overall maintenance costs are not high, making it quite practical for family use.

I've used the Borgward BX7, equipped with a BWE420B 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. It has ample horsepower, delivering a thrilling drive and effortless hill climbing. City fuel consumption is around 9 liters, which isn't too high, and it's even more economical on long trips. The BX5's 1.4T model, named 4G14TI, is suitable for small families and is quite economical. My friend who drives this model finds it quick off the mark and quiet. Borgward's engine technology comes from a collaboration with Foton, with a focus on durability during development. This means it can start quickly even in sub-zero temperatures, which should reassure drivers in northern regions. For regular maintenance, remember to choose the right oil grade to avoid gear-shifting issues. I noticed a significant power boost after replacing the spark plugs once. Also, don't overlook the cooling fan—it helps cool the engine promptly in high temperatures, extending its lifespan. Paying attention to these small details can help the car last longer and improve safety significantly.

I'm quite interested in automotive technology. The commonly seen Borgward engine models include the 1.4T named 4G14TI for BX5 and the 2.0T BWE420B for BX7, both featuring direct injection turbocharged designs with output power ranging between 140 to 220 horsepower, paired with a smooth-performing 6-speed automatic transmission. During development, optimizations were made considering Chinese road conditions, such as quick response at low torque and reduced stuttering in traffic jams. It's recommended to use 5W-30 specification engine oil, and regular maintenance can prevent carbon buildup issues and extend service life.

What is the Difference Between Magnetic Ride Suspension and Air Suspension?

Magnetic ride suspension and air suspension differ in the following aspects: 1. Medium: Air suspension replaces physical springs with airbags, controlling the height and damping of the springs by adjusting the air pressure inside the bags. In contrast, magnetic ride suspension retains traditional springs but replaces conventional hydraulic oil with magnetorheological fluid inside the shock absorbers. 2. Focus: Magnetic ride suspension is designed more for handling and is commonly found in sports models, while air suspension emphasizes comfort and is more prevalent in luxury vehicles. In terms of technological sophistication, magnetic ride suspension is more advanced.

What is the reason why the car does not move after shifting gears?

When a car does not move after shifting gears, it is a comprehensive functional failure of the vehicle. The issue may involve the clutch, transmission, and drive axle. During inspection, it is necessary to first check whether the car's drive wheels are functioning properly, followed by examining the clutch. Gear shifting refers to the transmission, which is used to change the torque and speed of the engine crankshaft to meet the varying requirements of traction and speed for the drive wheels under different driving conditions, such as starting, accelerating, driving, and overcoming various road obstacles. The car's transmission allows the vehicle to maintain very low engine speeds and relatively low driving speeds, and it also enables the car to reverse, among other functions, making driving more convenient and efficient.
