When the coolant warning light on the dashboard comes on, you should promptly add coolant. Here is some relevant information about coolant: 1. If you continue driving with insufficient coolant, it will affect the engine's heat dissipation and potentially damage the engine. 2. Most cars use water-cooled engines, which rely on the continuous circulation of coolant within the engine to dissipate heat. 3. Coolant follows two circulation paths within the engine: one is the major cycle, and the other is the minor cycle. 4. When replacing coolant, always go to a professional shop and use specialized equipment for the replacement.

Does driving experience refer to the age of driving or the age of holding a driver's license?

Driving experience refers to the age of holding a driver's license. The new regulations on the upper age limit for drivers, as part of the deepening of the "delegation, management, and service" reform, have made certain adjustments to the application age and usage age for some driver's licenses. The most notable changes involve the C1, B1, B2, A1, and A2 driver's licenses, as detailed below: 1. Large vehicles: The upper age limit for applying for medium and large passenger and cargo vehicles (i.e., B1, B2, A1) has been adjusted from 50 to 60 years old. 2. Physical condition: The upper age limit for applying for a C1 driver's license has been removed, allowing lifelong application as long as physical conditions are met. 3. Driver's licenses: The lower age limits for applying for A1 and A2 driver's licenses have also been adjusted, both reduced from 26 and 24 years old to 22 years old.

What does ESS engine mean?

ESP is a further extension of the functions of the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Traction Control System (TCS) in automobiles, and it is also part of the vehicle's active safety system. Relevant information is as follows: 1. Composition: ESP mainly consists of three major components: sensors, actuators, and the Electronic Control Unit (ECU). Sensors generally include wheel speed sensors, steering wheel angle sensors, lateral acceleration sensors, yaw rate sensors, and brake master cylinder pressure sensors. Actuators typically include the traditional braking system (vacuum booster, pipelines, and brakes), hydraulic regulators, etc. The Electronic Control Unit works in conjunction with the engine management system to intervene and adjust the engine's power output. 2. Function: ESP is primarily used to address the risk of tailspin loss of control caused by continuous steering during emergency obstacle avoidance. When emergency avoidance is required, ESP intervenes to increase the driving wheel's rotational force; when a tailspin tendency is detected, ESP applies braking to the opposite wheel to reduce rotation, thereby helping the vehicle follow the driver's steering intentions.

What Level is 163 Horsepower?

163 horsepower = 119.8862963 kilowatts, which provides sufficient power but consumes energy quickly. Below is an introduction to horsepower: 1. Introduction to horsepower: Horsepower is a commonly used unit of power measurement in engineering technology, proposed by James Watt. 1 horsepower is approximately equal to 735 watts. It generally refers to metric horsepower rather than imperial horsepower. 1 horsepower equals the work of 75 kilogram-force meters completed in 1 second, also equal to 0.735 kilowatts, or metric horsepower. 1 imperial horsepower equals 550 foot-pounds per second, equal to 76 kilogram-force meters per second, or 0.746 kilowatts. 2. Metric horsepower: Metric horsepower, also known as metric horsepower, is entirely man-made and set to a value very close to imperial horsepower. It is defined as 1 metric horsepower being the work of 75 kilogram-force meters completed in 1 second. That is: 1 metric horsepower = 75 kilogram-force meters/second = 735 watts.

What speed corresponds to which gear in a manual transmission?

Manual transmission first gear usually corresponds to speeds below 20 km/h. Second gear is between 20 km/h and 35 km/h. Third gear is between 35 km/h and 45 km/h. Fourth gear is between 45 km/h and 60 km/h. Fifth gear is for speeds above 60 km/h, and if the vehicle has a sixth gear, you can shift to 6th gear at 80 km/h. Here are some additional tips: 1. Manual transmission shifting techniques: If you notice the vehicle shaking while driving, it indicates the engine is operating at low speed with high load. Immediately downshift one or two gears according to the actual situation. When shifting gears, coordinate the clutch and throttle properly - press the clutch pedal all the way down while simultaneously releasing the accelerator pedal, then quickly shift to the appropriate gear. Release your hand immediately after shifting - don't keep it on the gear lever for too long as this can easily damage the transmission. 2. Shift completely: After driving for long periods, some drivers become casual about shifting and release the clutch before the gear is fully engaged, which can cause significant damage to the transmission. Therefore, always ensure complete gear engagement and fully depress the clutch pedal when shifting.

How Many Kilometers Can a Tesla Battery Last?

Tesla battery lifespan, according to official data, ranges from 450,000 to 600,000 kilometers. In reality, electric vehicle batteries are not that fragile. Domestic policies stipulate that electric vehicles must provide an 8-year or 150,000-kilometer warranty for the battery. During the warranty period, battery degradation should not exceed 30%, meaning that within the manufacturer's specified warranty period, owners do not need to worry about the battery lifespan of their electric vehicles. More details are as follows: 1. Currently, electric vehicle batteries include nickel-metal hydride batteries (mainly used in Toyota's non-plug-in hybrid vehicles), lead-acid batteries (lifespan under three years), and lithium batteries (including lithium iron phosphate batteries and ternary lithium batteries). 2. Pure electric vehicles mostly use lithium batteries, with BYD and Tesla as examples. BYD uses lithium iron phosphate batteries, which have a long lifespan, good safety, and high charge-discharge rates, but relatively lower energy density. This means the same range requires more battery cells, increasing the vehicle's weight and cost. Tesla uses ternary lithium batteries, which have better consistency, more mature production technology, and higher energy density, allowing the same number of battery cells to store more energy. 3. In terms of battery lifespan, lithium iron phosphate batteries can achieve over 2,000 charge cycles. Even with one cycle per day, they can last 5-6 years. However, it's important to note that one cycle refers to fully charging the battery and then completely discharging it. In daily use, people often don't wait for the battery to fully discharge before recharging. For example, if daily usage depletes the battery from full charge to 75%, and it's recharged fully at night, it would take four days to complete one cycle. 4. Ternary lithium batteries can achieve over 800 full charge-discharge cycles in practical use. If calculated at four days per cycle, they can last at least ten years. In terms of range, a ternary lithium battery-powered electric vehicle can generally travel 180 kilometers per full cycle. With 800 cycles, the total range can exceed 140,000 kilometers.
