Car rain deflectors serve the following purposes: 1. Rain deflectors are installed above car rearview mirrors and windows to block rain. 2. The deflectors mounted above rearview mirrors protect them from getting blurred by rain. 3. During challenging rainy driving conditions, they provide certain protection for the driver's rear visibility, making driving easier and safer. 4. Another type installed on car windows protects both the driver and passengers. 5. In rainy weather, windows can be slightly lowered to form a "canopy" with the deflectors, allowing ventilation while keeping occupants dry.

Does Leaving Windows Open While Locking the Car Consume a Lot of Power?

Leaving windows open while locking the car does consume power, but the amount is not significant. After the car is turned off, the power supply is not completely disconnected. For example, the anti-theft alarm and warning lights continue to operate. Additionally, many sensors in the car are powered by the battery. If the windows are left open, the car will not enter sleep mode, causing more sensors to remain active and consume additional power. Hazards of leaving windows or doors open after parking and turning off the engine: 1. Draining the battery: Before parking and turning off the engine, ensure all electrical devices are turned off. Once the engine is off, it stops generating electricity, and closing windows or other electrical devices at this point can overload the battery. Always close the doors properly when locking the car; otherwise, it will increase power consumption. In severe cases, the battery could be completely drained overnight. 2. Accelerating battery discharge: The battery naturally discharges about 1% per day. If the car is left unlocked or windows and doors are left open for an extended period after turning off the engine, it not only speeds up power consumption but also worsens the battery's discharge, affecting the car's ability to start.

What is the fuel consumption of a scooter?

Currently, most scooters on the market are mainly 125cc in displacement. Under economical driving conditions, the fuel consumption of a 125cc scooter ranges between 1.5L-2.2L per 100 kilometers. However, the fuel consumption performance of a scooter is influenced by various factors such as the model's displacement, engine performance, fuel supply system, driving habits, and current road conditions. Here are some ways to reduce fuel consumption for scooters: 1. Purchase a motorcycle with good engine performance: Scooters with good engine performance (such as electronic fuel injection types) are very fuel-efficient. Although they may be more expensive, they are cost-effective in the long run. Some low-quality scooters, while cheap, consume a lot of fuel. 2. Pay attention to daily maintenance (frequent oil changes and air filter replacements): In the daily maintenance of scooters, frequent oil changes and air filter replacements are crucial. Change the oil approximately every 1,500 kilometers (use high-quality oil) and replace the air filter every 2,000 kilometers. 3. Choose high-quality tires: Scooters have a low chassis, making tires very important. When selecting tires, consider the brand and quality, and it is recommended to follow the advice of a maintenance technician.

Ground Clearance of Model Y?

The minimum ground clearance of Model Y is 150mm. The minimum ground clearance of Model Y refers to the distance between the lowest point (excluding the wheels) and the supporting plane, which indicates the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as stones and stumps without collision. The higher the ground clearance of Model Y, the better its off-road capability. However, if the ground clearance is too high, the stability at high speeds may decrease. Model Y is the fifth vehicle launched by Tesla since its establishment in 2003. Its body dimensions are: length 4750mm, width 1921mm, height 1624mm, with a wheelbase of 2890mm. Generally, the ground clearance of sedans ranges between 110mm and 150mm, while SUVs have a ground clearance between 200mm and 250mm. However, the ground clearance of Model Y is not static; it also depends on the load condition. Therefore, changes in ground clearance should be considered based on the load variations of the Model Y. When selecting a vehicle, ground clearance can be one of the reference factors. The choice should depend on the vehicle's intended use and the road conditions. For urban areas with good road surfaces, vehicles with lower ground clearance can enhance stability and comfort. For long-distance travel or regions with poor road conditions, vehicles with higher ground clearance are preferable to avoid scraping or damaging the chassis, considering the vehicle's off-road performance.

When the rear of the car veers to the right while reversing, which way should the steering wheel be turned?

When the rear of the car veers to the right while reversing, the steering wheel should be turned to the left. This is because the rear veering to the right indicates an oversteer to the right, and timely adjustment of the steering wheel is necessary. Below are some key points to note when steering while reversing: 1. Master the basic technique: Simply put, reversing requires staying calm, observing the surroundings carefully, and determining whether the rear should go left or right. Turning the steering wheel to the left makes the rear go left, and turning it to the right makes the rear go right. 2. Pay attention to correcting the car's position: When correcting the car's position, if the rear veers to one side, you should steer in the opposite direction to correct it (if the car is veering left, steer right to correct it, and vice versa). If the rear continues to veer in the same direction, don't assume you're correcting it wrong—you're not. Only after the steering wheel is fully corrected can continuing to steer in the opposite direction change the rear's direction. Before full correction, steering only reduces the degree of veering. 3. Overcome fear and hesitation: Don't think this is an insurmountable problem. As long as the driver remains calm, thinks carefully, observes and analyzes correctly, practices more, and plans before acting, it can be mastered.

What is the structure of a tire?

Tire structure is detailed into the following aspects: 1. Tread: The contact surface between the tire and the road, featuring excellent wear resistance, high-temperature heat dissipation, good resistance to road and tire pressure, and puncture resistance. 2. Carcass: The cord ply in the tire, also the main stress layer between the tire and the ground, with good flex resistance. 3. Belt layer: The steel cord ply between the tread and the carcass, protecting the carcass, restraining tread deformation, maintaining the tread's contact surface, and improving wear resistance and tire stability. 4. Cap ply: A special cord layer on the belt layer, restraining the movement of the belt layer during tire operation, preventing the belt layer from separating from the tire, and maintaining tire stability at high speeds. 5. Bead: Made of rubber-coated steel wires wound in a specific shape, its role is to mount the tire onto the rim and secure the tire. 6. Apex strip: Filling material on the steel wire ring in the tire, preventing the bead from dispersing too much, cushioning bead impact, protecting the bead, and preventing air ingress. 7. Inner liner: A component of tubeless tires that maintains airtightness, made of special rubber, serving the function of an inner tube.
