The Elantra's fuel tank requires a total of 55 liters of gasoline when fully filled. Fuel tanks can be divided into two types: open tanks and closed tanks. An automobile fuel tank must have a sufficiently large capacity. The suction pipe and return pipe should be inserted below the lowest liquid level to prevent air suction and splashing of return oil, which can cause bubbles. The distance between the suction pipe and return pipe of the fuel tank should be kept as far apart as possible, and a partition is best placed between them. Definition of fuel tank capacity: Generally, small cars have a fuel tank capacity of 35-45 liters, while mid-sized cars have a fuel tank capacity of around 55-75 liters. A full tank usually allows for a driving range of approximately 500 kilometers. Impact of vehicle model on fuel tank capacity: The design of an automobile fuel tank's capacity generally allows for a driving range of 400-600 kilometers. Lighter vehicles with smaller displacements have correspondingly smaller fuel tank capacities, while heavier vehicles with larger displacements naturally have larger fuel tank capacities.

I remember the 2011 Elantra had a fuel tank capacity of 53 liters as standard equipment. I drove this car for several years, and a full tank could usually cover over 600 kilometers, depending on road conditions and driving habits. It was more fuel-efficient on highways, costing less than 0.5 yuan per kilometer, while slightly higher in the city. I enjoy long-distance trips, so I always make sure to refuel when the remaining fuel drops to a quarter to protect the fuel pump and extend its lifespan. This capacity was quite worry-free when the car was new, with a reasonable design and simple maintenance—just cleaning the fuel cap regularly was enough.

Where is the engine number located on the Geely Freedom Cruiser?

Geely Freedom Cruiser engine number is located on the side wall of the engine block. The engine number, also known as the engine model, is an identification code assigned by the engine manufacturer in accordance with relevant regulations, industry practices, and engine attributes to a batch of identical products. It represents information such as the manufacturer, specifications, performance, characteristics, technology, purpose, and production batch of the engine. Methods to check the engine number include: 1. Using the owner's name, contact information, vehicle license, and license plate number to inquire on the traffic management bureau's website; 2. Checking through documents such as the vehicle license, vehicle registration certificate, purchase invoice, factory certificate, operating license for commercial vehicles, and vehicle insurance card; 3. The engine number is located near the left spark plug of the car engine, and it can be viewed by opening the car's hood.

What are the hazards of prolonged warm-up?

Prolonged warm-up can exacerbate carbon buildup. The correct warm-up method is: after starting the vehicle, let it idle for 2 to 3 minutes until the engine coolant reaches normal operating temperature, then you can drive. Not warming up the car can cause engine wear, as the engine oil settles at the bottom when the engine is cold, leaving the internal components in a state of dry friction. The purposes of warming up are: 1. After prolonged parking, the engine oil flows back into the oil pan, leaving the upper part of the engine without proper lubrication—warming up helps lubricate these parts; 2. When the engine hasn't reached operating temperature, the fuel system cannot effectively vaporize gasoline due to low temperatures—warming up improves efficiency; 3. It helps distribute transmission fluid to lubricate the upper part of the transmission.

Why are ventilated discs not used for rear wheels?

Reasons why rear wheels do not use ventilated discs: The braking force of the rear wheels is smaller, and the heat generated is less compared to the front wheels. The brake disc is a crucial component in the braking system, which can be categorized into disc brakes, drum brakes, and air brakes. Structurally, they are divided into solid brake discs and ventilated discs, while material-wise, they include carbon fiber ceramic brake discs and metal brake discs. Methods for maintaining brake discs include: 1. Developing good driving habits; 2. Avoiding emergency braking; 3. Regularly inspecting brake pads and discs; 4. Checking the thickness of the friction pads; 5. Having professionals inspect the brake shoes; 6. Using original equipment manufacturer (OEM) brake pads and discs for replacements.

How to Display the Tire Pressure on a Camry?

Method to display the tire pressure on a Camry: 1. Press the up or down arrow button; 2. Select tire pressure; 3. Press the OK button. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire, which is the blood pressure of the car. The level of tire pressure plays a crucial role in the car's performance and power. Tire pressure is an indicator of the car's load capacity, and the size of the load depends on the level of tire pressure. Hazards of abnormal tire pressure: 1. Reduced friction and adhesion of the tire, affecting braking performance; 2. Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; 3. Accelerates localized wear of the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; 4. Increases body vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; 5. Causes excessive stretching and deformation of the tire cords, reducing tire elasticity and increasing the load on the car during driving.
