The fuel consumption of the BYD Qin DMI cruising at 120 km/h is 4.37L/100km. Below are some related introductions about fuel consumption: Habits and road conditions: Fuel consumption is greatly related to driving habits and road conditions. Avoid heavy acceleration, gradual acceleration when starting is the most fuel-efficient. To save fuel, avoid pressing the accelerator heavily when starting, as heavy acceleration can increase fuel consumption by 2 to 3 times compared to normal speed starts. Braking: Maintaining distance and avoiding frequent braking saves more fuel. If you don't maintain distance, you may need to brake frequently on the road. When braking, the gear of an automatic transmission car will drop, and the car will have to pull up from a low gear again. Starting from a standstill or low gear requires the engine to consume more fuel.

I've been researching hybrid vehicles, and the BYD Qin DM-i consumes approximately 5-6 liters per 100 kilometers when cruising at 120 km/h on the highway. This efficiency is attributed to its hybrid system—the engine consistently operates in the high-efficiency zone, with electric drive sharing the load, though wind resistance and road gradients can slightly increase the figures. I recommend regularly checking tire pressure and air filters, as maintaining a steady speed can optimize fuel consumption. Initial tests with a new car showed slightly lower figures, but these may increase slightly as the vehicle ages. Don’t underestimate this fuel efficiency; hybrid technology saves a significant amount on fuel costs during long trips, especially compared to pure gasoline vehicles that often exceed 8 liters. The design of the Qin DM-i is truly smart. For daily long-distance driving with cruise control, my personal tests showed stable fuel consumption around 5.5 liters, depending on load and weather conditions—windy conditions might increase it by 0.3 liters. Overall, the engineers have optimized it well, and owner feedback has been generally positive.

Vehicle Scrapping Period?

Vehicle scrapping periods vary depending on the type of vehicle. Below are the scrapping periods for different types of vehicles: 1. Non-commercial passenger vehicles with 9 seats or fewer: Non-commercial passenger vehicles with 9 seats or fewer (including sedans and SUVs) are scrapped after 15 years of use. 2. Tourist passenger vehicles and non-commercial passenger vehicles with more than 9 seats: Tourist passenger vehicles and non-commercial passenger vehicles with more than 9 seats are scrapped after 10 years of use. 3. Commercial large buses: Commercial large buses are scrapped after 10 years of use. 4. Other vehicles: Small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles, large non-commercial sedans, and wheeled special-purpose machinery vehicles have no usage period restrictions.

What Causes the Honda CR-V to Shake When the AC is On?

Honda CR-V shaking when the AC is on is typically caused by severe carbon buildup, ignition system faults, or unstable oil pressure. Below is a detailed explanation: Severe Carbon Buildup: The most common reason for the CR-V shaking when the AC is on is a dirty throttle body or excessive carbon deposits in the fuel injectors. When there is too much carbon buildup inside the engine, the gasoline sprayed by the cold-start injector is largely absorbed by the carbon deposits, resulting in an overly lean air-fuel mixture during cold starts, making it difficult to start. Cleaning the carbon deposits can resolve this issue. Ignition System: Poor performance of the ignition system or suboptimal spark plug firing can also lead to this type of fault. Replacing the spark plugs can fix the problem. Unstable Oil Pressure: If the fuel pump's supply pressure is abnormal or the intake pressure sensor readings are incorrect, it can cause the vehicle to shake. Adjusting the readings can resolve this issue.

How Often Should the Lavida's Spark Plugs Be Replaced?

Lavida spark plugs should be replaced every 40,000 kilometers. Methods to determine if spark plugs are damaged: Remove the spark plugs and observe them. The condition of the spark plugs can be judged based on their appearance and color. Normal spark plugs have insulator skirts and electrodes that appear gray-white, gray-yellow, or light brown. A properly functioning spark plug has a reddish-brown insulator skirt, with an electrode gap between 0.8-0.9mm, and no signs of electrode burning. If the spark plugs are oily or have deposits but are not damaged, they can continue to be used after cleaning off the oil and deposits. If the spark plugs are severely damaged, with signs such as blistering at the top, black streaks, cracking, or melted electrodes, the cause of the damage should be identified. After troubleshooting, replace the spark plugs with new ones. Additionally, if the spark plugs appear black as if smoked, it indicates that the wrong type of spark plug (too cold or too hot) was selected, the air-fuel mixture is too rich, or engine oil is leaking into the combustion chamber.

What do Blue Needle Volkswagen, Red Badge Honda, and Silver Ear Audi mean?

Silver Ear Audi refers to the S/RS series performance models under Audi. The name 'Silver Ear' comes from the fact that both exterior rearview mirrors of Audi S/RS performance models are decorated with silver chrome material. The features of Silver Ear Audi performance cars and the RS models are as follows: Features of Silver Ear Audi performance cars: From the top-tier RS7 down to the S3, all are equipped with silver ears. In fact, the appearance of Silver Ear Audi models is not much different from regular Audi models, except for the silver color of the rearview mirrors. However, they are generally more expensive. RS Model Series: The exterior rearview mirror covers of RS models are covered with silver metal chrome material, and the original Audi RS series models all have silver rearview mirrors. The Audi RS series is also known as 'the suit-wearing hooligan,' including models such as the Audi RS6, RS7, RS3, RS4, RS5, Audi TTRS, and more.

What is the difference between China National Standard V and VI for vehicles?

The difference between China National Standard V and VI lies in the emission standards, with China VI being more stringent. The differences between China V and China VI are as follows: 1. Emission standards: Compared to China V, the China VI standard reduces nitrogen oxides by 77%, particulate matter by 67%, introduces a limit requirement for particle number (PN), and tightens the durability requirements for emission control devices and onboard diagnostic systems (OBD). China VI also proposes stricter compliance supervision requirements, including type inspection and information disclosure, production consistency checks, new vehicle inspections, in-use vehicle compliance checks, and simplifies the compliance determination method. 2. Price: China VI vehicles are equipped with additional components compared to China V vehicles. In addition, automobile manufacturers incur extra costs from various tests for vehicle type approval and production, which results in China VI vehicles being significantly more expensive than China V vehicles.
