The new Sylphy's engine mainly comes in two versions: one is the conventional gasoline-powered HR16 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, and the other is the e-POWER hybrid system engine. I often work on this HR16 engine during repairs. It features continuous variable valve timing technology, delivering 126 horsepower and 154 Nm of torque. The power output is smooth, providing brisk acceleration in city driving without being overly aggressive. Engine noise is well-controlled, making the cabin quiet and comfortable, especially during long drives without causing fatigue. In terms of fuel consumption, it's quite economical, averaging around 7L/100km in urban areas and dropping below 6L/100km on highways. Maintenance is straightforward, requiring only regular oil and filter changes. The e-POWER version uses a 1.2L three-cylinder engine solely for generating electricity to power the electric motor, offering an EV-like driving experience without the need for charging. Its fuel consumption is even lower, at just 4.5L/100km in city driving. Overall, these engines are designed for reliability and durability, making them ideal for daily commuting. They rarely have major issues, but it's advisable to avoid frequent hard acceleration to prolong their lifespan. Positioned as economical and practical, these engines prioritize stability and peace of mind over high performance. Buyers can choose between the gasoline or hybrid version based on their needs and budget.

As a new owner of the Nissan Sylphy, I've been driving this car for over a year and the engine performance has been truly worry-free. The 1.6L gasoline engine I use provides adequate power for daily commuting in the city, with smooth acceleration, no struggle when climbing hills, and effortless overtaking on highways. Fuel efficiency is key - I save over 200 yuan monthly on gas compared to my colleagues' cars. The quiet engine makes the cabin relaxing, allowing me to enjoy music without disturbance. Cold starts are quick in winter without long warm-up waits, while summer AC use causes only slight power reduction that's acceptable. Maintenance is simple with periodic servicing costing just a few hundred yuan for oil changes or filter replacements. I've also tried the e-POWER version - the engine acts solely as a generator, delivering instant response with near-silent operation that feels like an EV, plus unbelievable fuel economy. The engine has proven reliable with no major repairs needed, perfectly suiting practical, economy-conscious drivers like me - though the hybrid version offers even better value if budget allows. In urban driving, the engine pairs seamlessly with the CVT transmission for jerk-free operation, proving both fuel-efficient and durable over long-term use.

The e-POWER hybrid engine in the new Sylphy is incredibly cool. The engine acts as a generator, with the motor directly driving the wheels, delivering zero-delay starts and silky-smooth acceleration. The gasoline version features an HR16 1.6L engine, offering sufficient power, smooth performance, and fuel efficiency, but the hybrid version is more advanced. Despite its smaller displacement, it’s more fuel-efficient and eco-friendly, with impressively low urban fuel consumption. The engine technology is highly efficient with minimal emissions, providing an EV-like driving experience without the need for charging stations, and maintenance is simple. The driving experience is quiet and efficient, representing the future trend. While traditional engines are reliable, the hybrid version offers quicker response and a more exhilarating drive.

Does the road adhesion decrease when driving in a tunnel?

Road adhesion does decrease when driving in a tunnel. The decrease in adhesion mainly refers to the impact of airflow within the tunnel on the vehicle, which reduces the friction between the tires and the road surface. Before entering a tunnel, there are traffic signs indicating width and height restrictions. Drivers must adhere to these warning signs. When passing through a culvert, it is necessary to reduce speed appropriately and check whether the vehicle's load height is within the permitted range indicated by the traffic signs. If necessary, get out of the vehicle to inspect and confirm before proceeding slowly. When approaching an uncontrolled single-lane tunnel, carefully observe both the inside of the tunnel and the entrance at the other end. If there are already vehicles inside the tunnel, take the initiative to stop and yield. If vehicles are about to enter from the other end, use high beams to signal. Once the oncoming vehicle enters the tunnel, stop immediately. If the other vehicle yields, proceed promptly. When within 50 meters of the tunnel entrance, turn on the headlights, width lights, and taillights, and check the speedometer to drive at the speed indicated by the tunnel entrance signs. Maintain a safe following distance to ensure sufficient space for avoiding hazards. Generally, a distance of over 100 meters should be kept when driving in a tunnel. For longer tunnels, follow the posted guidelines to maintain the appropriate safe driving distance. Avoid using high beams. Prolonged use of high beams at night can affect oncoming and preceding vehicles, as high beams can cause temporary blindness to drivers. The difference in light levels inside and outside the tunnel already makes it difficult for drivers to see, and the additional glare from high beams increases the risk of accidents. Therefore, high beams should be avoided.

How to Deal with Clear Coat Scratches on Cars?

After being scratched, especially if the scratch reaches the primer, it is advisable to go to a repair shop for touch-up painting as soon as possible, and avoid exposing the car body to rain to prevent rust. It is recommended to keep a touch-up pen of the same color for minor scratches in inconspicuous areas. Although there might be some color difference, it saves a lot of expenses. For scratches, you can cleverly cover them with car stickers or decorative plates, which is both cost-effective and aesthetically pleasing. Many insurance companies now offer zero-deductible policies, which you may consider purchasing. This way, any scratches can be directly taken to the repair shop.

What Causes Severe Vibration When the Air Conditioning is Turned On in a Buick Excelle?

Buick Excelle experiences severe vibration when the air conditioning is turned on due to a dirty throttle body and insufficient engine power. Insufficient engine power: When the engine power is low, high idle speed indicates that the compressor is working. When the compressor is not operating, the idle speed drops, and the steering wheel does not vibrate. When the air conditioning is turned on during normal driving, the increased load from the compressor causes the engine speed to decrease, resulting in noticeable vehicle vibration. To address this issue, manufacturers typically install an engine idle speed boost system for air conditioning. This system increases the engine speed to the required range when the air conditioning compressor is active. Dirty throttle body: A dirty throttle body affects engine performance. Turning on the air conditioning under these conditions further increases the engine idle load, leading to steering wheel vibration. Cleaning the throttle body can prevent this issue. The vibration caused by air conditioning use, based on current vehicle conditions, is likely due to a dirty throttle body. It is recommended to have it cleaned at a repair shop. According to current vehicle control technology and maintenance cases, this is a common issue. Throttle carbon buildup is primarily caused by the engine control unit's characteristics, as well as factors such as low temperatures, low-speed driving, short-distance trips, and frequent starts. The noise from the air conditioning system is normal compressor operation, and no other issues are likely present. The engine drives the air conditioning compressor to provide cooling, which is a heavy load for the engine. When the air conditioning is turned on, the engine must also power the compressor, leading to noticeable power loss and increased vibration. This effect is more pronounced at idle speed. Increasing the idle speed slightly may improve the situation, though it will result in higher fuel consumption.
