As an enthusiast who frequently analyzes vehicle specifications, I recall that the weight of the 2021 BMW 5 Series indeed varies depending on the configuration. The standard 530i has a curb weight of approximately 1,720 kg, while the long-wheelbase version or higher-end models like the 540i can exceed 1,800 kg. The weight is primarily influenced by engine size and body structure—larger engines, such as the six-cylinder variants, naturally add more heft, impacting acceleration and fuel efficiency. BMW partially offsets this weight increase by using lightweight materials like aluminum alloys in the body construction and optimizing aerodynamic design. Heavier versions excel in high-speed stability, reducing the effects of wind resistance, but they can feel slightly cumbersome in urban traffic and require more careful parking. Overall, weight management is aimed at balancing luxury and performance, and I recommend checking the specific model's specifications before purchasing.

From practical driving experience, the 2021 BMW 5 Series typically weighs between 1,700 to 1,800 kilograms. For instance, my 530i standard wheelbase version was measured at approximately 1,750 kilograms. This directly impacts daily handling—the weight provides a comfortable ride, with minimal vibration over speed bumps and a secure, grounded feel at high speeds. However, it slightly affects fuel consumption, averaging around 7-9 liters per 100 kilometers, with higher consumption in urban driving. Opting for a lighter version, such as the entry-level model, can help reduce the load, while BMW's intelligent chassis tuning ensures driving pleasure remains uncompromised. Considering weight when purchasing can also help estimate maintenance costs, ensuring you choose the right configuration for your needs.

What is the number of teeth on a gear?

Generally, the number of teeth on a gear is taken as m≥2. Within the same gear group, gears with the same modulus should be used as much as possible; gears with different moduli are only used under special circumstances, such as the final expansion group or back gear group, but generally no more than two types. The principle for determining the number of gear teeth is: compact gear structure size and small spindle speed error. The following is a related introduction about gears: 1. Composition: Generally, it consists of teeth, tooth grooves, end faces, normal faces, addendum circles, dedendum circles, base circles, and pitch circles. 2. Introduction to components: Each protruding part used for meshing, these protruding parts are generally arranged radially, and the teeth on the paired gears contact each other, enabling the gears to continue meshing and operating; the tooth groove is the space between two adjacent teeth on the gear; the end face is the plane perpendicular to the axis of the cylindrical gear or cylindrical worm; the normal face refers to the plane perpendicular to the tooth line of the gear; the addendum circle refers to the circle where the top of the tooth is located; the dedendum circle refers to the circle where the bottom of the groove is located.

Is the Internet of Vehicles the built-in network of a car?

Internet of Vehicles does not mean being able to access the internet inside a car. It is a massive interactive network. According to the definition by the China IoT Industry Alliance, the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) is a huge interactive network composed of information such as vehicle location, speed, and route. Through devices like GPS, RFID, sensors, and camera image processing, vehicles can collect environmental and status data about themselves. Using internet technology, all vehicles can transmit and aggregate their various information to a central processor. Through computer technology, this vast amount of vehicle information can be analyzed and processed to calculate the optimal routes for different vehicles, report road conditions in real-time, and adjust traffic signal cycles. The built-in 4G network in a car operates using a bound SIM card. The principle of using the built-in 4G network in a car is the same as that of a mobile phone SIM card. Although both the car's 4G network and mobile phone networks use bound SIM cards, the SIM card for cars is specially designed and built into multifunctional vehicles. Even if a mobile phone SIM card could be inserted into a multifunctional vehicle, the system would not recognize it, so the two are not interchangeable.

Can You Stop During the Second Driving Test?

You can stop during the second driving test. During the second driving test, stopping is allowed as long as it is not an illegal parking. Here is some relevant information about the second driving test: Overview: The second driving test, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment and is referred to as the field driving skills test. For small vehicles C1 and C2, the test items include five mandatory components: reversing into a parking space, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving through curves (commonly known as S-curves). Some regions may also include a sixth item: high-speed toll card collection. Teaching Assistance: Teaching Software: Students can learn traffic regulations through driver simulation test software on mobile phones or computers. Teaching Books: "Safe Driving Starts Here," compiled by the Ministry of Transport of the People's Republic of China. Driving schools can uniformly purchase and distribute driving study materials, or students can purchase the materials at their own expense.

Can You Still Drive a Car with a Flat Tire?

You should not continue driving with a flat tire. Here are the relevant details: Hazards of a flat tire: Continuing to drive with a flat tire can cause significant damage to the vehicle's suspension, transmission, and other systems, and may also deform the wheel rim. Most importantly, it endangers personal safety. As the tire loses its support, the stability of the vehicle body severely decreases, making it highly prone to traffic accidents. Therefore, the immediate priority is to slow down gradually and park the car in a relatively safe place to replace the spare tire or call for assistance. Run-flat tires in case of a flat: Of course, run-flat tires offer relatively higher safety. Even after a flat, they do not lose pressure instantly like regular tires. Their sturdy sidewalls can support the car to drive at speeds below 80km/h for about 80 kilometers. However, it's important to note that if the damage area of the run-flat tire is too large, you should not continue driving as it still poses certain safety risks.

Can You Still Drive When the Exhaust Malfunction Light Is On?

When the exhaust malfunction light is on, you can still continue driving. Not all exhaust malfunction lights indicate that the vehicle cannot be driven. If the engine malfunction light is on, there are no abnormal noises in the engine compartment, no other abnormal warnings on the dashboard, the vehicle's power is unaffected, and the transmission shifts normally, you can continue driving to a 4S shop for further diagnosis. Issues such as intake or exhaust problems may trigger the engine malfunction light. Introduction: This commonly referred to exhaust malfunction light is also known as the fuel injection system malfunction light. As long as there are no unusual changes in engine power or sound, you can continue driving. This is because the ECU (Engine Control Unit) has a fault substitution program. If any sensor among the many sensors fails, the ECU will use pre-set backup parameters to replace the faulty sensor's data to prevent the vehicle from stalling. For example, if the coolant temperature sensor fails, the ECU will use a backup value of 80 degrees Celsius as the control parameter for fuel injection and ignition. Therefore, while driving is possible, timely repairs are still necessary. If not addressed promptly, the following issues may arise: Deterioration in exhaust gas quality, leading to environmental pollution; increased fuel consumption; elevated combustion chamber temperature and accelerated wear, causing faster engine deterioration; increased engine noise, affecting driving and passenger comfort.
