I used to be a frequent tester of various sports cars. The BMW i8 has a range of about 37 kilometers in pure electric mode, which is completely sufficient for urban commuting if you drive in pure electric mode. However, as a hybrid, it also comes with a gasoline engine, and the combined total range can easily reach 550 to 600 kilometers, depending on your driving habits and road conditions. For example, driving fast on the highway consumes more fuel, while smooth driving can extend the range. I also noticed the convenience of charging—the i8 supports fast charging, taking about two hours to fully charge, which is an advantage for those who prefer green travel. If you don’t drive for a long time, remember to check the battery health to avoid a decline in range.

I often discuss car topics in forums, and the BMW i8's range is quite interesting. It can run over 30 kilometers on pure electric power, which is suitable for daily short trips, while the total range including hybrid mode can reach around 600 kilometers. While driving, you can freely switch modes—the eDrive pure electric mode is fuel-efficient and eco-friendly, but the hybrid mode is more practical for long distances. In practical use, like when I drove it on a business trip, I didn't need to frequently charge or refuel, which was quite hassle-free. However, it's important to note that battery efficiency may decrease in low temperatures, slightly reducing the range. Regular maintenance is recommended to keep the electric motor system running smoothly.

Detailed Explanation of the Mercedes-Benz S350 Power Closing Door?

Power closing door refers to the automatic closing of the door when it is not properly shut. Advantages of power closing doors: The door can close automatically, which means there's no need to repeatedly open and close the door to confirm if it's properly shut. If you don't have the strength to close the door, simply push it lightly, and the system will take over the remaining work—just gently close the door. With a power closing door, you only need to lightly push it, and it will automatically close completely without the need to slam it shut, saving effort and protecting the car. Disadvantages of power closing doors: High cost. The power closing door system is only sold as an accessory to large feature packages (mainly depending on the market), so the total cost is much higher than the system's intrinsic value. However, blindly installing this system in the secondary market may cause the car to lose its warranty. The power closing door system is prone to malfunction and instability, and there's also an important safety hazard—it can easily pinch fingers.

Do I need to sign after passing the written test for driver's license?

You need to sign after passing the written test for driver's license. However, if you pass the written test, the system will automatically record your passing status. If you don't sign to confirm after passing the written test, your score won't be canceled, but it may affect the issuance of your driver's license. According to Article 46 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses": The score sheet for each subject test must be signed by the applicant and the examiner. Without signatures, the motor vehicle driver's license cannot be issued. It is best to sign to confirm after the test to avoid any impact on the issuance of your driver's license. The written test, also known as the theoretical test for drivers, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license examination. The test papers are randomly selected and combined by the computer driver examination system according to the proportion specified in the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Work Regulations". Content of the written test: Basic knowledge of motor vehicles; laws, regulations, and road traffic signals; basic knowledge of safe driving and civilized driving; basic knowledge related to motor vehicle driving operations. Below are the precautions for the written test: Candidates must enter the examination room with their ID card and admission ticket to take the test. Generally, driving schools will distribute the admission ticket before the test. Students should bring their ID cards to avoid missing any required documents during the test. Before the test, the relevant staff will input the candidate's information into the computer. After entering the examination room, candidates should find their assigned seats, check their information, and start the test after confirming the information is correct. After the test, click "Submit". If you answer 11 questions incorrectly during the test, the system will automatically submit the test, and the test will end. Follow the staff's arrangements and receive your driving training file in order in the waiting area. Mobile phones must be turned off when entering the examination area. No loud noise is allowed in the examination area. Regulation textbooks are not allowed in the examination room (or should be placed in a bag). After the test, keep your ID card safe and submit the file to the "Submission Window" at the front of the examination room. Candidates who pass the test should sign under the guidance of the staff at the exit of the examination room before leaving. Candidates who fail the test can leave the examination room and wait for the driving school staff to notify them of the retake time. Tips for the written test: Anything that ensures basic safety is correct. Generally, anything that prohibits the driver from doing something is correct (should not, cannot, must not, are not allowed, prohibited, strictly prohibited). Active yielding is correct (stop and yield, slow down and yield, give way, slow down and pull over to avoid). Slow passing is correct (pass slowly, decelerate, pass at a slow speed, steady, reduce speed). Observing carefully is correct (slow down and observe, observe left and right, stop and observe, pass after looking). Confirming safety is correct (ensure safety, pass safely, confirm safety, lightly press the brake pedal). Overly strong or overreacting keywords are wrong. Arbitrary decisions are wrong (only, just, simply, is enough). Quick passing is wrong (accelerate to pass, steer sharply, turn sharply).

How often should fuel additives be added?

Fuel additives should be added every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers. Fuel additives are functional substances added to fuel to compensate for certain deficiencies and impart new beneficial properties. They can enhance engine performance, remove carbon deposits, clean the fuel system, save fuel, and prevent rust, among other benefits. Fuel additives are categorized into cleaning, maintenance, and fuel-saving types. Using genuine fuel additives can provide certain benefits for your vehicle. Fuel additives can improve octane and cetane values, enhancing power output, promoting combustion efficiency, offering oxidation and wear resistance, as well as cleaning, dispersing, demulsifying, anti-corrosion, and lubrication effects.

What are the types of superchargers?

Types of superchargers: Centrifugal supercharger, Screw-type supercharger, Roots-type supercharger. Like turbocharging systems, supercharging systems are forced induction systems. Both superchargers and turbochargers can increase engine air intake, but there are some differences between them. These two forced induction systems operate on different principles. Compared to turbocharging technology, supercharging completely eliminates throttle response lag, turbo lag, and sudden power output phenomena, achieving instant throttle response and linear power output that increases with RPM, thereby enhancing driving performance. Additionally, supercharging technology outperforms turbocharging in terms of low-speed high-torque and instant acceleration scenarios.

What is the purpose of an engine cover?

Engine cover functions: It serves as a spoiler, beautifies the engine compartment to some extent, and also isolates noise generated by the engine during operation, thereby improving driving comfort. When engine covers were first invented, their primary purpose was to maintain engine compartment tidiness, but in reality, they offer many additional benefits. During operation, engines produce noise, and the engine cover helps reduce this noise while keeping the engine compartment clean. Nowadays, many domestic vehicles are equipped with engine covers in their compartments, whereas they are less commonly seen in some joint-venture or imported cars.

What does 'how much fuel per 100 kilometers' mean?

This term refers to the fuel consumption of a vehicle traveling 100 kilometers at a certain speed on the road. Below is an introduction to fuel consumption per 100 kilometers: 1. Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is a theoretical indicator of a vehicle. It is a value measured by manufacturers under objective conditions using a dynamometer installed on the vehicle's chassis, converted into speed parameters, and then calculated as the theoretical experimental fuel consumption data for the vehicle model when traveling at specified speeds. 2. The power source of a car is an internal combustion engine, which converts petroleum fuel into power, that is, chemical energy into kinetic energy. Therefore, there must be a standardized measurement, which is the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers.
