This is due to the activation of the engine anti-theft function and loss of computer system data. Reprogramming the PCM for the engine computer can restore functionality. If the issue persists, it is necessary to check the circuit, and it is recommended to seek professional inspection at a 4S shop. The engine electronic anti-theft system includes a transponder embedded in each key. Relevant information about the Focus is as follows: 1. Body dimensions: length is 4534mm, width is 1823mm, height is 1483mm, and wheelbase is 2648mm. 2. Exterior design: The model is designed with a sporty style, featuring more streamlined body lines. The interior also fully embodies a fashionable and sporty style, with an 8-inch navigation touchscreen and button layout that enhances driver convenience. 3. Configuration system: The Focus adopts intelligent automotive technology, equipped with an automatic parking system and vertical parking assist system, providing drivers with a more comfortable and convenient driving experience.

Is the Elysee a Joint Venture Car?

The Dongfeng Citroen Elysee is a joint venture car. It is an entry-level compact sedan jointly produced by the Dongfeng Group and Chevrolet. Here is an introduction to joint venture cars: 1. As the name suggests, a joint venture car is a project jointly established by Chinese and foreign investors. The Chinese side contributes by providing land and factory usage rights, as well as capital, while the foreign investor provides the brand, technology, capital, talent, etc. Joint venture cars are the result of such collaborations. Foreign parties provide technology, talent, and brands for domestic assembly, but the core technology is still controlled by the foreign side. 2. Joint venture cars are expensive due to intellectual property issues. The level of cooperation and dependence between China and foreign automobile manufacturers is relatively low. Generally, China learns more about assembly technology, corporate culture, and internal management from foreign automobile manufacturers. However, the core technologies of automobile engines and transmissions, which are truly needed, are often imported from abroad, and the technologies sold to China are usually 10 to 20 years behind.
