The Volkswagen Tiguan is a compact SUV that has been popular since its first generation launched in 2007. The current second generation, including the Tiguan L, offers even more spaciousness. Built on the Golf platform, it comes with either a 1.5T or 2.0T engine, delivering decent fuel efficiency and a smooth, comfortable ride in urban settings. The flexible space design includes a large trunk and foldable rear seats for cargo, making it ideal for family trips. With strong German build quality, it boasts high safety standards including standard ESC and multiple airbags, and moderate maintenance costs. Competitors like the Honda CR-V exist, but the Tiguan offers sharper handling and good resale value. Downsides include a slightly higher price tag, and the pure gasoline version may feel a bit outdated in the era of electric vehicles. However, its practicality and reliability make it a solid choice. If your budget allows, opting for a higher trim level offers better value.

Is the 48V Mild Hybrid System Fuel-Efficient?

48V mild hybrid systems are fuel-efficient, as vehicles equipped with this system consume less fuel than pure gasoline-powered cars. The electric motor in a mild hybrid system has relatively lower power and torque, and most of the time, this motor functions to regulate speed or recover kinetic energy. The greatest advantage of the 48V mild hybrid system lies in its optimization of engine start-stop, acceleration, braking, and other driving conditions, leading to significant fuel savings. Firstly, the higher voltage enables a more powerful start-stop motor to drive the engine crankshaft more easily, resulting in shorter system response times and reduced jerky sensations. With a larger-capacity battery and a higher-power motor, the 48V mild hybrid system can perform more functions compared to conventional start-stop systems. For example, during vehicle acceleration or brief stops, the powertrain with a 48V system can operate in pure electric mode, avoiding the fuel-intensive idle phase typical of gasoline-powered cars during startup. Additionally, during braking or coasting, some kinetic energy can be recovered through engine braking, minimizing energy dissipation. Some 48V systems can even temporarily power the air conditioning compressor when the engine is off, preventing the AC from shutting down altogether.

What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the Changan CS85 COUPE?

The Changan CS85 COUPE's 0-100 km/h acceleration time is 8.3 seconds. The 0-100 km/h acceleration refers to the time it takes to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h, which is the most intuitive reflection of a car's power. Generally, a 1.6L compact sedan achieves a 0-100 km/h acceleration time between 11 to 13 seconds, while a 2.0T midsize sedan ranges between 7 to 8 seconds. Supercars typically have acceleration times under 3.8 seconds. The Changan CS85 COUPE is equipped with a 2.0L inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. This model is also the first domestic brand vehicle to feature the Aisin 8AT transmission. The Changan CS85 COUPE is a coupe-style SUV from Changan's SUV family, launched in March 2019 in Sanya, with four variants: Type, Dynamic, Premium, and Intelligent.

Is it a traffic violation if I go straight in a tidal flow left-turn lane?

This situation constitutes a traffic violation. All vehicles entering a tidal flow lane must drive according to the traffic light signals. If the lane shows a green light for going straight, you must proceed straight ahead, even if you intended to turn left. Otherwise, it will be considered a violation. Below is more information about tidal flow lanes: 1. A tidal flow lane is a variable lane. Based on different traffic flow conditions during morning and evening rush hours, cities set up one or more lanes where the permitted direction of vehicle travel changes according to the time of day on suitable roads. 2. Specifically, during the morning rush hour when there is more traffic entering the city, the number of lanes for inbound traffic is increased while the number for outbound traffic is decreased. Conversely, during the evening rush hour when there is more traffic leaving the city, the number of outbound lanes is increased while the number of inbound lanes is decreased. 3. Not all vehicles are allowed to use tidal flow lanes. It is reported that large and medium-sized trucks mistakenly entering a tidal flow lane will be fined 1,000 yuan and penalized with 3 demerit points.

What does the '4S' in a 4S store represent?

4S store '4S' respectively refers to Sale (sales), Sparepart (spare parts), Service (after-sales service), and Survey (information feedback). The full name of a 4S store is Automobile Sales Service 4S store (Automobile-Sales-Servicshop-4S). Sale (sales), it represents the ability to provide consumers with services such as viewing cars, test driving, and purchasing cars, which is the most basic service item that a 4S store must have. Service (after-sales service), it represents that after the vehicle is sold, it can also provide consumers with after-sales warranty and maintenance services. This is also one of the essential service items of a 4S store. Sparepart (spare parts), it represents that in addition to providing consumers with vehicle sales and after-sales services, the 4S store can also provide consumers with vehicle spare parts supply services. Survey (information feedback), as the final terminal of automobile sales for car manufacturers, 4S stores have the closest relationship with consumers and can provide information feedback to car manufacturers.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Volvo V90?

Volvo V90 has a fuel tank capacity of 67L, which is the officially announced data. The recommended fuel grade for Volvo V90 is 95, with a fuel consumption of 7.9L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 848km. During daily driving, it is necessary to pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. The fuel level is usually observed through the fuel gauge in the car. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when there are only 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the car manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, and there is still some space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This space is designed to allow for fuel expansion when the temperature rises, preventing overflow from the tank. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may exceed the calibrated tank capacity.

Does a car that has been used for 3 years need to be serviced at a 4S shop?

It is not necessarily required to service a car that has been used for 3 years at a 4S shop. The decision mainly depends on the usage condition of the car, and servicing does not always have to be done at a 4S shop. Locations for car servicing: After 3 years of use, you may choose not to service your car at a 4S shop. You can select a servicing location based on your needs, such as opting for a third-party professional automotive service provider. If you can ensure that the vehicle will not encounter quality issues requiring warranty claims during the warranty period, you may skip 4S shop servicing. Otherwise, it is advisable to go. Standards for car servicing: A car that has been driven for three years does not necessarily require a major service. If the vehicle has been used infrequently during these three years, with a total mileage of less than 60,000 kilometers, the major service can be slightly delayed. However, basic minor maintenance should still be performed regularly. Generally, 60,000 kilometers is the standard interval for major servicing for most vehicles, and you can use this as a benchmark for judgment.
