Geely GS body weight ranges between 1320 kg to 1398 kg depending on configuration. Introduction to vehicle weight: A heavier vehicle provides better driving stability, especially during sharp turns and emergency braking. Additionally, it offers greater structural integrity during collisions with less deformation, resulting in relatively higher safety. Lighter vehicles tend to have relatively poorer driving stability, particularly noticeable in curves and at high speeds where they may feel floaty. In collisions, lighter vehicles are generally more fragile (excluding high-end body materials like carbon fiber), with more severe steel plate deformation, though they do offer better fuel efficiency. Higher curb weight leads to increased fuel consumption: Curb weight is a significant parameter affecting a vehicle's fuel consumption. There's a proportional relationship between fuel consumption and curb weight—the heavier the vehicle, the higher the fuel consumption. For instance, in a compact car, every 40 kg increase in curb weight leads to approximately 1% more fuel consumption.

What is the minimum ground clearance of the Orlando?

The minimum ground clearance of the Orlando when unloaded is 180 mm; when fully loaded, it is 150 mm. The minimum ground clearance refers to the distance between the lowest point of the vehicle (excluding the wheels) and the supporting surface when the car is fully loaded and stationary. This measurement is used to indicate the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as rocks and tree stumps without collision. The Orlando is a compact hatchback introduced by Chevrolet, equipped with a 1.3-liter turbocharged engine (code-named L16) that delivers a maximum power of 120 kW and a maximum torque of 230 Nm. The Orlando features a large body typical of long-wheelbase models, a distinctive floating roof design, and an eye-catching long rear spoiler. In terms of configuration, it includes practical features such as LED automatic headlights, multi-faceted LED taillights, LED daytime running lights, a panoramic sunroof, and roof rails.

Is the Volkswagen Sagitar equipped with a dry or wet dual-clutch transmission?

Volkswagen Sagitar is equipped with a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission. Differences in cooling: The dry dual-clutch transmission uses air cooling for heat dissipation, relying on airflow to remove heat; the wet dual-clutch transmission is immersed in oil, providing higher cooling efficiency. Differences in operation: The dry clutch is a manual transmission friction plate clutch, featuring high mechanical transmission efficiency, relatively complex operation, and a higher failure rate; the wet clutch is an automatic transmission oil-immersed friction plate clutch, with lower mechanical transmission efficiency, easier operation, and a lower failure rate. Dual-clutch transmissions are not suitable for frequent starts, prolonged low-speed driving, or stop-and-go traffic, as they are prone to overheating, which can lead to malfunctions. Once the vehicle's computer issues a warning, it is essential to stop immediately to cool down the transmission.

What Are the Causes of Abnormal Noises When a Car Turns?

Abnormal noises when a vehicle turns may be caused by aging of the steering tie rod ball joint, which requires timely replacement of the steering tie rod ball joint, followed by a four-wheel alignment. It could also be due to loose or aging power steering belts, necessitating corresponding maintenance for the vehicle. Below are detailed explanations regarding car maintenance: 1. Overview: Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain components of the vehicle, also known as vehicle servicing. Currently, car maintenance mainly includes the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, among others. 2. Purpose: The goal of car maintenance is to maintain the vehicle's appearance and technical condition, eliminate potential hazards, prevent faults, slow down the deterioration process, and extend the service life.

Is the BMW Z4 an automatic or manual transmission?

BMW Z4 is equipped with an automatic transmission. Differences between automatic and manual transmissions: Different driving methods: automatic transmissions shift gears based on the car's own RPM, while manual transmissions require manual gear shifting; Different clutch pedals: automatic transmission cars do not have a clutch pedal, making them simpler to operate and more beginner-friendly, whereas manual transmission cars require mastering the use of the clutch pedal; Different car prices: for the same model and configuration, automatic transmission cars are more expensive. Automatic transmissions are simpler to operate: Automatic transmission vehicles do not have a clutch pedal, so they do not require coordination with the left foot. Basically, mastering the brake, accelerator, and gear shifting is enough to try driving, making them more suitable for beginners. However, it is important to note that due to the lower technical requirements and driving difficulty of automatic transmissions, only a C2 driver's license can be obtained during the test, and a C2 license does not permit driving manual transmission vehicles.

What causes the Changhe Furuida to shake and stall when cold?

Changhe Furuida shaking and stalling when cold can be caused by a dirty throttle body or severe carbon buildup on the intake valves. Dirty throttle body: When starting a cold engine, insufficient air intake leads to incomplete combustion, but the issue usually resolves itself after a few seconds as the ECU automatically adjusts. Severe carbon buildup on intake valves: Fuel sprayed onto the intake valves during cold starts is mostly absorbed by the carbon deposits, resulting in excessively lean fuel mixture in the cylinders and causing shaking. These two issues are very common. The solution is cleaning. For the first issue, have the throttle body and intake tract cleaned at a 4S shop. For the second issue, use high-quality fuel additives to clean the carbon deposits on the intake valves. These measures should basically solve the problem.

What is the RPM of the Passat at 120 km/h on the highway?

When the Passat reaches a speed of 120 km/h on the highway, the RPM is generally around 3400. At a speed of 110 km/h, the RPM is typically around 3200. Indicators of a good engine: During high-speed driving, lower engine RPM does result in reduced fuel consumption, but this is not the sole indicator of engine quality. A car's fuel economy cannot be judged solely based on this factor. For instance, a good engine must be paired with a smooth transmission to ensure that the engine can deliver maximum power and torque at lower RPM, increasing engine load and truly making the vehicle fuel-efficient and easy to drive. Idle RPM: Many modern engines are high-RPM engines, and idle RPM varies depending on the vehicle model and engine type. Generally, an idle RPM between 500 and 850 is considered normal.
