The Elantra is equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission and a 6-speed automatic transmission with manual mode. The currently available Hyundai Elantra in terms of power is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power output of 93.8kW/6300rpm, maximum torque of 156N·m/4850rpm, and maximum horsepower of 128PS. More details are as follows: 1. In terms of appearance, the Hyundai Elantra features a mesh-style front grille. Although not large in area, its simple design gives it a more sporty look. 2. The headlight cluster maintains the same design as the 15 model, but the internal structure of the light housing has been optimized, equipped with lenses and integrated light guide daytime running lights, paired with round fog lights featuring L-shaped chrome trim, giving an overall youthful and fashionable feel. 3. For the interior, the Beijing Hyundai Elantra incorporates the X-shaped design concept in multiple areas, using black or beige interiors with silver trim accents, adding a sense of fashion and three-dimensionality. The overall interior draws heavily from the design of the eighth-generation Sonata, especially the dynamic and visually striking lines of the center console, reflecting a strong sporty style. 4. In terms of seat design, both the shape and the feel when seated are excellent, with good support and wrapping for the back and legs.

I drive the old Elantra, remember back then the 1.6L automatic version came with a 6AT transmission, Hyundai's own Mobis product. This transmission is quite smooth for city driving, with minimal shift shock. The manual version has a 5MT, and the gearshift feels relatively light. The 1.8L high-end model also used the same 6AT, the salesperson at the time said it had a manual mode and could rev-match on downshifts. After eight years of driving, I've changed the transmission fluid twice, and now occasionally there's a slight hesitation when shifting from second to third gear when the car is cold. The mechanic said it's a common issue with the valve body. As an old owner, I'd advise against aggressive driving—this transmission's durability is about average.

What is the speed of an Audi?

Audi has a top speed of 250 kilometers per hour, but the maximum speed limit on domestic highways is 120 kilometers per hour, so the maximum design speed of a vehicle is only an indicator of its performance. Definition of vehicle speed: Vehicle speed refers to the distance a vehicle travels in a unit of time, commonly measured in kilometers per hour or meters per second. Regulations on vehicle speed: Motor vehicles must not exceed the speed limit signs on the road. On roads without a centerline, the speed limit is 30 km/h for urban roads and 40 km/h for highways. On roads with only one lane in the same direction, the speed limit is 50 km/h for urban roads and 70 km/h for highways. When turning, the maximum speed of a motor vehicle must not exceed 30 km/h.

Is the Lavida rolling backward when exiting an underground parking lot a transmission issue?

The Lavida rolling backward when exiting an underground parking lot is not a transmission issue. The reason is that the clutch contact point was not lifted sufficiently (the clutch was lifted too low), or no throttle was applied (the car's idle speed is inherently low and insufficient to initiate movement) before releasing the handbrake. Solution after rolling backward: Restart the car, press the clutch and brake, keep the clutch at the semi-engaged state, and then press the throttle while releasing the clutch. Key points to avoid stalling or rolling backward on a slope: Press the foot brake as firmly as possible to ensure sufficient braking force; once the clutch reaches the semi-engagement point, hold it steady without excessive shaking, then slowly release the brake.

What are the causes of Audi S4 transmission failure?

Audi S4 transmission failure can be attributed to the following reasons: Internal contamination of the transmission: When an automatic transmission malfunctions, in many cases, it is not due to damage to the internal valve body, but rather the presence of stubborn dirt and impurities inside. Especially when these contaminants accumulate in the valve body, they can cause blockages, preventing effective regulation of oil pressure, leading to issues such as jerking, impact, and slippage. High temperatures damaging the transmission: High temperatures can degrade the quality and frictional properties of automatic transmission fluid, increasing friction and wear, which in turn leads to transmission noise. Additionally, sludge can form inside the transmission, causing jerking and impact. If the temperature exceeds 120 degrees Celsius, rubber sealing materials will begin to harden, eventually leading to leaks and reduced hydraulic pressure. At even higher temperatures, the transmission may start to slip, and this slippage can further raise the temperature, exacerbating the problem.

Why does the Corolla shake when in neutral?

The reasons why the Corolla shakes when in neutral are as follows: Dirty throttle body and excessive carbon deposits in the fuel injectors: After driving for a certain mileage, a dirty throttle body can cause the throttle to not close properly or the idle stepper motor to get stuck, both of which can result in excessively high engine idle speed. Additionally, carbon deposits generated during engine operation can also cause the vehicle to shake, especially when starting the engine. The engine may shake more than usual, and in some cases, it may not start on the first attempt. Aged engine mounts: Sometimes, car shaking is related to aging engine mounts. Engine mounts are essentially the shock absorption system of the engine, responsible for absorbing minor vibrations during operation. If the engine mounts are faulty, these vibrations can transfer to the steering wheel and the interior of the car, causing shaking at idle. The car engine is most prone to shaking when the electrical system is turned on while the engine is idling. Aged, deformed, or bulging tires: Shaking during vehicle movement is mostly related to the drivetrain, with tire issues being the most basic cause. If the owner suspects that the shaking during driving is due to tire problems, the simplest method is to carefully feel the tire tread with their hand. If the tread appears jagged, it indicates that the tires have aged or deformed.

Will Traffic Police Stop You for Installing Four Small Yellow Lights on the Grille?

Installing four small yellow lights on the grille will definitely attract the attention of traffic police. Small yellow lights are classified as special lighting, similar to police lights or other emergency lighting, and are prohibited for non-special vehicles. Moreover, they pose safety hazards. Therefore, if spotted by the police, you will likely face penalties and be required to remove them immediately. Legal car modifications include the following: 1. Replacing wheels of the same size: You can change the wheels as long as the vehicle's length, width, and main structure remain unaltered. However, the wheel size must match the original factory specifications and must not extend beyond the fenders. 2. Changing the car's color: National laws permit individuals to change their vehicle's color. However, if the color change covers more than 30% of the body, you must visit the vehicle management office within 10 days to take new photos and apply for a modification. Additionally, you cannot use colors reserved for official vehicles (e.g., police cars, fire trucks, ambulances) or opt for reflective mirror finishes or "chameleon" colors. 3. Installing roof racks: The installed roof rack must not alter the vehicle's length, width, or main structure. The height of the rack should not exceed 30 cm, and it must be securely fixed. 4. Adding side steps: Side steps can be installed, but they must not change the vehicle's length, width, or main structure. 5. Replacing the grille or bumper: You are allowed to replace the grille or bumper as long as the vehicle's length and width remain unchanged. 6. Interior modifications: Compared to exterior modifications, interior modifications are more lenient. Examples include installing carbon fiber trim, an Alcantara steering wheel, upgrading the audio system, or adding leather seats. 7. Headlight modifications: As long as the color remains unchanged, the color temperature is below 6000K, and the lights are equipped with bi-xenon projectors to prevent glare (ensuring they do not affect oncoming drivers), the modifications are legal and will pass annual inspections. 8. Brake system upgrades: This includes replacing performance brake pads, rotors, or even calipers. Upgrading the brake system within reasonable limits not only enhances aesthetics but also significantly reduces braking distance and improves pedal feel.
