According to official information, the maximum wading depth of the Elysion is 135mm. Common tire specifications are 225/50R18, with a body length of 4951mm, a vehicle weight of 1941-1987kg, and it is a 5-door, 7-seat MPV. The maximum wading depth refers to the deepest water level a vehicle can safely pass through. Generally, the maximum wading depth for sedans does not exceed 30cm, while SUVs have a higher maximum wading depth, but it is still best not to exceed 50cm. Among common models, the GAC Trumpchi GS8 has a maximum wading depth of 30cm, the Audi A4 has 32cm, the Volkswagen Sagitar has 30cm, the Land Rover Range Rover has 90cm, the Jeep Compass has 48cm, and the Highlander has 45cm. The maximum wading depth of SUVs is significantly higher than that of sedans. Generally, when driving through water, vehicle owners should take different measures depending on the water depth and the vehicle's characteristics, as follows: If the wading depth reaches the height of the exhaust pipe, it is relatively safe. Even if water enters the exhaust pipe, the pressure inside is sufficient to expel the water. As long as the engine is not turned off in the water, water will not flow back into the vehicle. If the wading depth reaches the height of the door frame, it becomes more dangerous. The vehicle's circuits, electronic components, and sensors are mostly located at the bottom of the vehicle, which could lead to circuit failures and damage to critical electrical components, preventing the vehicle from starting normally. If the wading depth reaches the height of the intake pipe, it is extremely dangerous. Driving directly into such conditions could cause the vehicle to stall immediately, leading to permanent engine damage or rendering the engine unusable.

Should You Engage P Gear or Apply the Handbrake First in an Automatic Transmission?

When parking an automatic transmission car, you can either engage the P gear or apply the handbrake first. However, before shifting into P gear, you must ensure that the car has come to a complete stop to avoid damaging the locking mechanism of the automatic transmission. Never shift into P gear while the car is in motion. Automatic transmissions have a P gear, which stands for Parking gear. They also have an N gear, which stands for Neutral gear. Both N and P gears can be used when parking. Generally, vehicles have five gears: P, R, N, D, and S. Below is an introduction to these gears: 1. P (Parking) gear, also known as the starting gear: When the car is parked and not in use, the gear should be in this position. At this time, the wheels are mechanically locked to prevent rolling. The vehicle must be completely stopped before using P gear; otherwise, the mechanical parts of the automatic transmission may be damaged. 2. R (Reverse) gear: Used for reversing. Never force the gear into R position before the vehicle has come to a complete stop, as this can cause severe damage to the transmission. 3. N (Neutral) gear: Used for temporary stops (e.g., at a red light). This gear indicates neutral. To prevent the car from rolling on a slope, always keep the brake pedal pressed. 4. D (Drive) gear: Used for normal driving on regular roads. 5. S (Sport) mode: When this gear is engaged, the gears can shift freely, but the shifting timing is delayed to keep the engine at high RPM for a period, thereby increasing the car's power. Using this gear will result in higher fuel consumption.

Which manufacturer produces Gunite tires?

Gaomi Gunite Rubber Co., Ltd. Precautions for tire usage: 1. Regularly check the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects: The tread grooves gradually wear down with driving, and if they become smooth, they will lose their functions such as drainage and anti-skid, significantly reducing the vehicle's performance. Small cracks may also pose a risk of tire blowouts during high-speed driving. Additionally, promptly remove small stones stuck in the grooves. 2. Park on level ground: Avoid parking on surfaces with large, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acidic substances, or other materials that may deteriorate rubber. Drivers should avoid turning the steering wheel after parking, as this accelerates tire wear. 3. Do not splash water to cool down: Tires are prone to overheating during prolonged or high-speed driving in summer, with increased air pressure. In such cases, park to allow the tires to cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool down, as this may cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. 4. Avoid sudden braking: When turning, overtaking, passing intersections, narrow roads, or railway crossings, maintain an appropriate speed and pay attention to road conditions, pedestrians, and other vehicles. Prepare for braking to reduce frequent or emergency stops. 5. Choose good road surfaces: When driving through road construction or repair zones, proceed slowly at low speed and carefully select the path to avoid excessive impacts that may puncture or scratch the tires. On uneven roads, first choose the best path to minimize tire impacts and prevent damage to both the tires and vehicle components; second, drive slowly to avoid tire bouncing and strong vibrations.

What is the difference between smart entry and keyless start?

The difference between smart entry and keyless start lies in their principles: smart entry is an entry system; keyless start can only start the vehicle but cannot enter the system. The keyless start system allows the vehicle to be started without taking out or turning a key. Simply keep the key in a bag or pocket, and press the button inside the car or turn the ignition knob to start the engine. The keyless start system uses advanced radio frequency identification (RFID) technology, automatically locking and unlocking the doors through the chip in the smart card carried by the owner. When the driver approaches the vehicle within a certain distance, the door locks will automatically open and disable the anti-theft system. When the driver leaves the vehicle, the door locks will automatically lock and activate the anti-theft system.

What does violation code 7027 mean?

Violation code 7027 means: A motor vehicle makes a U-turn at a location where U-turns or left turns are prohibited by signs or markings. According to the relevant provisions of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," the penalty is: Demerit points (deduction): 0; Fine amount: 100 yuan; Other penalties: Warning. Traffic violation codes consist of four to five digits, classified according to the principles of the traffic law. The order from left to right is: the first digit is the behavior classification code, the second digit is the demerit point classification code, the third and fourth digits are the sequential code, and the fifth digit is the item number. First digit: Behavior classification code, indicating the category in the Road Traffic Law; Second digit: Demerit point classification code, indicating the category of demerit points for the traffic violation; Third, fourth, and fifth digits: Sequential code, indicating the order of the violation within the same behavior category. For example: 13035—"1" indicates a motor vehicle behavior, the second digit "3" indicates 3 demerit points, and "035" indicates the fifth item under the third category of 3-point deductions. Behavior classification code violation descriptions: Codes starting with "1" indicate motor vehicle traffic, e.g., 1003. Codes starting with "2" indicate non-motor vehicle traffic, e.g., 2002. Codes starting with "3" indicate pedestrian or passenger traffic, e.g., 3030. Codes starting with "4" indicate highway traffic, e.g., 4002. Codes starting with "5" indicate other regulations, e.g., 5005. Codes starting with "7" indicate implementation rules of provinces, autonomous regions, or municipalities, e.g., 7008. Codes starting with "8" indicate local regulations of cities (regions, autonomous prefectures, or leagues), e.g., 8606. There are four common ways to check motor vehicle violations: Visit the office halls of traffic branches in various districts and counties to query through touch-screen terminals; Log in to the external service website of the Public Security Traffic Management Bureau of each city, find the vehicle violation query section, enter the license plate number and vehicle engine number, and click to query; Call the inquiry hotline (area code + 114); Use the Traffic Management 12123 app (V2.8.1B437 for iOS 15 and above or V2.8.1B274 for Android 12 and above) to query. The violation of making a U-turn at a location where U-turns or left turns are prohibited by signs or markings can be handled through this Traffic Management app. After logging in, enter the violation processing business process, handle the violation, and make the payment.
