The minimum ground clearance of the Envision S is 190mm. The minimum ground clearance of the Envision S 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 rocks and tree stumps without collision. A higher ground clearance for the Envision S improves off-road capability, but if the ground clearance is too high, the stability at high speeds may decrease. The Chinese name for the Buick ENVISION is 'Angkewei' (Envision), which is a midsize SUV. The Envision S has a wheelbase of 2779mm, with length, width, and height dimensions of 4662mm, 1883mm, and 1631mm, respectively. Generally, the ground clearance for sedans ranges between 110mm and 150mm, while SUVs typically have a ground clearance between 200mm and 250mm. However, the ground clearance of the Envision S is not static; it also depends on the load condition. Therefore, changes in ground clearance should be considered based on variations in the Envision S's load. 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 well-paved urban roads, a vehicle with lower ground clearance may be preferred for increased stability and comfort. For frequent travel to remote areas or driving on poor road conditions, a vehicle with higher ground clearance may be chosen to enhance off-road performance and avoid undercarriage scrapes or damage.

Will the antifreeze overflow if too much is added?

If too much antifreeze is added, it will overflow. It is best to use a syringe to extract the antifreeze that exceeds the maximum water level. Antifreeze prevents the coolant from freezing when the car is parked in cold winter, which can crack the radiator and damage the engine cylinder block. Its full name is antifreeze coolant. Many people think that antifreeze is only used in winter, but in fact, antifreeze is used all year round. There are many types of automotive antifreeze, such as calcium chloride in inorganic substances, methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol, glycerin, lubricating oil in organic substances, as well as common sugar and honey in daily life, which can all be used as the base liquid for antifreeze. After adding an appropriate amount of pure soft water, it becomes antifreeze in the general sense.

Which gear should be used when pushing an automatic transmission car?

Automatic transmission cars should be pushed in the N (Neutral) gear. Below is an introduction to automatic transmissions: Operating principle: The engine's power is transmitted through the gearbox, which is also a key factor affecting fuel consumption. Generally, automatic transmissions consume 10% more fuel than manual transmissions. Whether manual or automatic, more gears mean better fuel efficiency. Driving technique: For manual transmission cars, upshifting should be done at higher RPMs. Engines are designed to operate at higher RPMs, with parameters like dynamic balance and rotational inertia optimized for high-speed operation. Prolonged operation at abnormal RPMs increases internal component stress and wear, often leading to vibration and knocking, which affects engine lifespan. Using 3000 RPM as the upshift point ensures post-shift operation at around 2300 RPM, keeping the engine within its healthy operating range.

What is a position lamp? What is its function?

Position lamps, also known as clearance lamps, serve the purpose of allowing other drivers to judge the size and width of the vehicle ahead during dusk driving. When the light switch is turned to the first position, the small lamps that illuminate at the front and rear are the position lamps (also referred to as dusk driving lamps, which are turned on when it is not completely dark; the next position after the position lamps is the low beam, while the high beam refers to the main headlights). High and low beams are commonly known as headlights, which, as the eyes of the car, are closely related to safe driving at night or under bad weather conditions. The angle of the high beam is too high, easily dazzling the eyes of oncoming vehicles and pedestrians around, and it is considered an impolite driving behavior.

What are the basic structural components of the ABS system?

ABS system mainly consists of 4 components: Wheel speed sensor, electronic control unit ECU, hydraulic unit, ABS warning light. The wheel speed sensor detects the motion state of the wheels and sends sinusoidal electronic pulse AC signals, which are then processed by the modulator to convert the pulses into digital signals and transmit them to the electronic control unit. The electronic central control unit ECU receives input signals from the wheel speed sensors, calculates the wheel speed, vehicle speed, and slip ratio based on these parameters, determines the wheel state according to the slip ratio, and issues control commands to the hydraulic unit. The hydraulic unit adjusts the pressure in the brake lines according to the control commands, with the adjustment process including pressure holding, pressure increase, and pressure decrease. The ABS warning light is used to alert the driver to system malfunctions, displaying a fault indicator light on the dashboard.

What causes a jerk when releasing the brake to start an automatic transmission car?

The reason for the jerk when releasing the brake to start an automatic transmission car is the presence of stubborn dirt and impurities inside. Especially when dirt and impurities accumulate inside the valve body, forming blockages that prevent effective regulation of oil pressure, leading to jerking, impact, and slipping issues. Here are some precautions when starting: Gear lever position: Shift gears after pressing the brake pedal and check if the gear lever position is correct. Preventing severe vehicle shaking: When starting over bumps or steps, it's best to press the brake pedal with your right foot, slightly release the right foot while the car is stationary, and gently press the accelerator pedal. The moment you pass the step, immediately lift your right foot and lightly press the brake pedal to prevent severe vehicle shaking. Engine speed: Do not let the engine speed be too high when starting; wait for the engine speed to drop before starting.
