BYD DM-i uses a green license plate. BYD DM-i: Essentially, DM-i is a combination of range extension and direct drive. At medium and low speeds, the generator first converts fuel into electricity, which is then used to power the electric motor. Any excess electricity is stored in the battery. Benefits of electric motor drive: The internal combustion engine always operates at high-efficiency RPM, maintaining thermal efficiency at its theoretical peak. Generating electricity first and then using it to drive the electric motor results in a transmission efficiency (based on BYD's hardware setup) that is higher than most transmissions, except for dry dual-clutch transmissions. This includes AT transmissions, CVT transmissions, and some wet dual-clutch transmissions. The energy loss in automatic transmissions is much greater than commonly perceived.

What is the platform in front of the steering wheel called?

The platform in front of the steering wheel is called the center console. Areas of the center console: The leftmost part in front of the steering wheel is the instrument panel, the area between the driver and front passenger is mostly the multimedia control zone, and below the multimedia control zone is the air conditioning control area. The instrument panel can display a lot of useful information, the multimedia control area can be used for navigation, listening to music, playing videos, etc., and the air conditioning control area below can adjust the air conditioning temperature, regulate the air flow, and switch between internal and external circulation. Design of the center console: The design of the center console is very important. Some cars have center consoles designed with a strong sense of technology. Designers need to consider many factors when designing the center console. There are many functional buttons on the center console that need to be operated while driving. Good design allows the driver to operate without compromising driving safety, while poor design can reduce the driver's operational convenience and may even affect driving safety.

What is the driving method for automatic transmission cars?

Driving method for automatic transmission cars: 1. When the gear lever is in the P or N position, start the car with the key; 2. When shifting to D (drive) or R (reverse), you must press the brake pedal, otherwise the gear cannot be shifted; 3. After shifting to the desired gear, release the brake pedal, and the car will start moving forward or backward, then accelerate to drive; 4. To stop, simply press the brake pedal, and the car will come to a halt. For short stops, you can press the brake pedal directly. For longer stops exceeding 2 minutes, shift to N (neutral), release the brake pedal, and use the handbrake to park. The letters on the gear lever represent: P for Park; R for Reverse; N for Neutral; D for Drive. For cars with a manual-automatic transmission, '+' means upshift and '-' means downshift. Use the D gear for both downhill and uphill driving, controlling the speed with the brake and accelerator pedals.

What Causes a Motorcycle Engine to Overheat and Fail to Start?

Motorcycle engine overheating and failure to start can be caused by: high-temperature ignition interruption or weak spark, rich fuel mixture, and insufficient oil circulation lubrication. Rich Fuel Mixture: If the motorcycle fails to start when hot, check if the air filter is clogged or oil-soaked, whether the carburetor's mixture ratio is set too rich, if the choke has a malfunction or is improperly used and remains in the enrichment state, whether the carburetor float level is too high, or if the carburetor itself is aged or of poor quality. These issues causing a rich fuel mixture can make it difficult or impossible to start when the engine is hot. Oil Circulation Lubrication: Check the engine oil and whether the oil circulation lubrication is normal, and if there are any cylinder scoring or sticking faults. These issues can also prevent the engine from starting when it is overheated. High-Temperature Ignition Interruption: Inspect the magneto coil, ignition unit, and ignition coil for high-temperature ignition interruption or weak spark faults. These ignition system components may sometimes experience ignition interruption when hot, which can also result in normal starting when cold but failure to start when hot.

Do You Need to Press the Clutch and Brake When Starting the Car?

Starting the car requires pressing the clutch and brake. The role of the clutch: The clutch has the function of controlling the disconnection and connection between the engine and the transmission. Starting without pressing the clutch is equivalent to starting with the transmission engaged, which increases the resistance and load during startup, slows down the engine speed at startup, makes it harder to start instantly, and also increases the load on the starter and battery, affecting their lifespan. Possible consequences: Starting the vehicle without pressing the clutch can lead to the car lurching forward due to starting in gear, which can easily cause accidents. Therefore, whether from a safety perspective or for the sake of your car, it is recommended to develop the good habit of pressing the clutch when starting the vehicle.
