The minimum ground clearance of the Mazda CX-4 is 197mm. Below is some related knowledge about ground clearance: Advantages of larger ground clearance: Good passability and convenient parking. A higher ground clearance not only improves passability on gravel or mountain roads but also prevents water from entering the exhaust pipe when driving through flooded areas. It also makes it easier to park on curbs or other uneven parking spots. Disadvantages of smaller ground clearance: With smaller ground clearance, the center of gravity is lower, leading to extremely poor passability. It becomes difficult to drive on gravel or dirt roads. Ground clearance of ordinary sedans: As long as there are no steep slopes, deep pits, or obstacles on the road, excessively large ground clearance is generally not required. It is sufficient to ensure the comfort and stability of the vehicle. Ground clearance of sports cars: Sports cars usually have a ground clearance of around 100mm. However, the low ground clearance of sports cars is designed to improve tire grip, enhance speed, and stability during high-speed cornering. High-speed cornering stability refers to the absence of skidding or rollovers.

What is the sequence for handbrake, clutch, and gear shifting?

When starting the car, you should first engage the gear and then release the handbrake. Here are the detailed explanations: 1. Reason: The reason for engaging the gear before releasing the handbrake when starting is to prevent the car from rolling backward. If you release the handbrake first, the car will be in neutral for a period before you engage the gear. Moreover, when starting, you may not know if the ground is level. If it is inclined, the car in neutral may roll backward, leading to an accident. 2. Key to a smooth start: Mastering the timing of the clutch's semi-engagement and coordinating it closely with the accelerator pedal. When releasing the clutch pedal, start by lifting it slightly faster. As you approach the point where the engine sound changes and the car body slightly vibrates, pause the clutch pedal at this position. Simultaneously, gradually press the accelerator pedal and then slowly lift your left foot until it is completely released.

How often should private cars undergo annual inspections?

Small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles must undergo an annual inspection every 2 years within the first 6 years, once a year after exceeding 6 years, and every 6 months after exceeding 15 years. Below are the relevant details: 1. Expanded exemption range for motor vehicle inspections: Based on the exemption of non-commercial small and micro passenger vehicles with 6 seats or fewer from inspections within 6 years, the exemption now includes non-commercial small and micro passenger vehicles with 7 to 9 seats (excluding minivans) within 6 years. For non-commercial small and micro passenger vehicles (excluding minivans) over 6 but under 10 years old, the inspection frequency is adjusted from once a year to once every 2 years. Vehicles involved in fatal traffic accidents or illegally modified and penalized by law must still undergo inspections according to the original schedule to ensure safety performance. 2. Notes: Commercial motor vehicles that pass the safety technical inspection within the specified period do not need to repeat the safety technical inspection.

Is it no longer necessary to display the 2021 inspection sticker and compulsory insurance sticker?

First, the compulsory insurance sticker can be omitted in regions where electronic insurance policies have been implemented. As for the inspection sticker, it was fully digitized in 2020 and replaced by electronic inspection qualification certificates, so it is no longer required to display the inspection sticker. Relevant requirements for the digitization of motor vehicle inspection marks stipulate: 1. For vehicles exempt from inspection within 6 months: Vehicles that have already obtained electronic inspection qualification certificates do not need to display paper stickers. Traffic police will verify the inspection status of vehicles through law enforcement terminals during traffic management. 2. Inspection qualification: Motor vehicles must pass regular inspections, including exhaust emissions, vehicle appearance, lights, brakes, chassis, etc., and must have no traffic violation records to receive the inspection qualification mark. All inspection dates are based on the registration date on the vehicle's license, and motor vehicles must undergo safety technical inspections according to the following periods from the date of registration, referred to as 'annual inspection' or 'annual review'.

How to Coordinate the Clutch and Brake?

Methods for coordinating the clutch and brake: 1. Automatic transmission cars do not have a clutch pedal, so simply press the brake directly; 2. When driving at high speed or normal speed, if the intention is only to slow down, there is no need to press the clutch; 3. When approaching a curve, first press the brake to reduce speed. After navigating the curve and confirming there are no obstacles, release the brake and press the accelerator to speed up without pressing the clutch. If there is an obstacle right after the curve, press the clutch and shift to a lower gear; 4. When descending a long or steep slope, do not press the clutch; instead, use the engine's traction for braking; 5. When intending to stop, first press the brake to reduce speed and then press the clutch; 6. In heavy traffic with frequent stops and short following distances, press both the clutch and brake simultaneously each time you brake; 7. In emergency situations, press both the brake and clutch together. ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) only becomes effective when the wheels are about to stop. If only the brake is pressed, the engine might stall, but the vehicle could still skid. In this scenario, ABS would fail completely due to the engine stalling. By pressing the clutch simultaneously, the connection between the engine and wheels is disconnected, allowing the wheels to quickly reach the locking threshold, thereby enabling the ABS system to activate promptly.

Should the Audi A4L use 92 or 95 octane gasoline?

According to the official vehicle manual recommendation, the Audi A4L should use 95 octane gasoline. In addition to checking the appropriate gasoline grade in the vehicle manual, you can also find it on the fuel tank cap, which will be clearly marked. Generally, the gasoline grade can also be determined based on the engine's compression ratio. Vehicles with an engine compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should use 92 octane gasoline, while those with a compression ratio between 10.0-11.5 should use 95 octane gasoline. However, with the application of new technologies, the gasoline grade cannot be solely determined by the compression ratio. A high compression ratio can still be tuned to use lower octane gasoline because, apart from the compression ratio, other factors such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology also play a role. Generally, the higher the gasoline grade, the higher the octane number and the better the anti-knock performance. 92 octane gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 octane gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. If the Audi A4L occasionally uses the wrong gasoline grade, simply switch back to the correct grade after consumption. However, long-term use of the wrong gasoline grade can have the following effects: For vehicles recommended to use lower octane gasoline, using higher octane gasoline will not cause damage, but the increase in octane number will alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This means both the engine's power output and thermal efficiency will decrease, resulting in poorer performance. For vehicles recommended to use higher octane gasoline, using lower octane gasoline can cause engine knocking. Because the octane number is too low, the lowered ignition point may cause premature ignition during the compression stroke. If combustion occurs before the spark plug ignites, resistance will appear during the upward stroke. This resistance makes the engine run very unstably. If the knocking is imperceptible, it only increases noise without significant engine damage. However, noticeable knocking indicates severe engine conditions, affecting not only driving stability but also causing abnormal wear on pistons and cylinders, and in severe cases, cylinder scoring.
