The Touran uses a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, which is particularly well-suited for pairing with small-displacement turbocharged engines. In a dual-clutch transmission, one clutch controls the even-numbered gears while the other manages the odd-numbered gears. The transmission connects to the engine via clutch plates, resulting in high transmission efficiency. The Touran is an MPV under the Volkswagen brand, measuring 4395mm in length, 1795mm in width, and 1634mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2678mm. For safety measures, the Touran is equipped with dual airbags, ABS, EBD, anti-whiplash headrests, and door-mounted anti-collision steel beams.

What is the difference between automatic parking and auto hold?

The differences between automatic parking and auto hold are as follows: 1. Different working principles: The automatic parking system measures the distance and angle between the vehicle and surrounding objects through radar probes installed around the vehicle. Then, the onboard computer calculates the operation process and adjusts the steering wheel rotation in coordination with the vehicle speed. The driver only needs to control the speed. On the other hand, the auto hold system controls the braking of all four wheels through an extended function of the electronic parking brake in the brake management system. In other words, the auto hold system is an extended function of the electronic parking brake, controlled by the ESP component. 2. Different functions: The automatic parking system automatically parks the vehicle into a space, while the auto hold system prevents the vehicle from rolling backward, which is particularly useful on slopes and during frequent starts and stops.

What Gear Should an Automatic Transmission Be in at a Traffic Light?

When waiting at a traffic light in an automatic transmission car, if the expected wait time is within 20 seconds, you can use D gear with foot brake; if the wait time is more than 30 seconds due to traffic congestion, shift to N gear with hand brake; if the expected wait time exceeds 2 minutes, use N gear with hand brake and finally turn off the engine to reduce vehicle wear. Introduction to the automatic transmission gear positions: 1. P gear is the parking gear, also known as the parking position. 2. R is the reverse gear. 3. N is the neutral gear. 4. D is the drive gear, also known as the forward gear. 5. S or 2 gear represents sport mode. 6. L or 1 is the low gear, also known as 1st gear.

What are the benefits of an automatic transmission?

Benefits of automatic transmission: 1. Simple and effortless operation, reducing driver fatigue, improving driving safety, and providing smooth and comfortable driving. 2. Effectively dampens torsional vibrations in the drivetrain and prevents drivetrain overload. 3. Extends the lifespan of the engine and drivetrain components, improving and enhancing the vehicle's performance. 4. Reduces fuel consumption and lowers emission pollution. Introduction to automatic transmission gears: 1. P stands for Park, also known as Parking gear. 2. R stands for Reverse. 3. N stands for Neutral. 4. D stands for Drive, also known as Driving gear. 5. S or 2 indicates Sport mode. 6. L or 1 stands for Low gear, also known as 1st gear.

What's the difference between double solid lines and single solid lines?

The differences between double solid lines and single solid lines: 1. A single solid line indicates there is only one lane in the same direction; double solid lines indicate there are two or more lanes in the same direction. 2. Roads with single solid lines are generally not very wide; roads with double yellow solid lines are usually wider. 3. Some sections of single yellow lines may have dashed lines, indicating that vehicles are allowed to make left turns or U-turns in these areas; however, double yellow lines are different—some sections may have a dashed line on one side and a solid line on the other. Introduction to road markings: 1. Yellow dashed lines can serve as dividing lines or centerlines; when used as dividing lines, lane changes are permitted. 2. Lane dividing lines are white dashed lines, used to separate traffic flows moving in the same direction, and are marked on the dividing lines of lanes moving in the same direction.

Are Diesel Cars More Fuel-Efficient?

Fuel efficiency in cars mainly depends on the engine displacement. Diesel cars with the same displacement are more fuel-efficient than gasoline cars. Advantages of diesel SUVs: 1. Power. Generally, diesel engines are more powerful than gasoline engines of the same displacement, especially at low speeds where the torque difference is more noticeable. Therefore, with the same displacement, drivers can clearly feel that diesel cars have stronger power than gasoline cars when starting and climbing hills. 2. Fuel efficiency. Compared to gasoline cars of the same displacement and model, diesel cars can generally save 30%-35% more fuel. 3. Maintenance. Diesel engines have a simpler structure and higher reliability compared to gasoline engines. They emit 45% fewer greenhouse gases than gasoline engines and are less likely to damage components.

What does the exclamation mark on the car indicate?

There are approximately three types of exclamation mark warning lights that may appear on the car dashboard: 1. A triangle with an exclamation mark in the middle, which is a general fault indicator light. 2. A circle with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle, which is the brake system warning light. 3. A horizontal line with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle. This is the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which illuminates when the air pressure in one of the vehicle's tires is too low. Reasons why the brake system warning light may illuminate: 1. In some cars, it lights up for a few seconds after turning on the ignition and turns off after starting the engine. 2. It lights up when the handbrake is engaged and turns off when released. 3. Low brake fluid level, which may illuminate while driving. 4. A malfunction in the brake system causes it to light up.
