The Volkswagen Jetta VS5 was officially launched on September 5, 2019. The 2022 Jetta VS5 offers a total of five models, including two manual and three automatic transmissions. The vehicle's exterior design does not incorporate many trendy elements, featuring a front grille with a dot-matrix pattern, the new Jetta logo in the center, and matching LED headlights on both sides with daytime running lights below, giving it an overall stable appearance. The Jetta VS5 is positioned as a compact SUV, with body dimensions of 4419mm in length, 1841mm in width, and 1616mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2630mm. In terms of power, the Jetta VS5 is equipped with a Volkswagen EA211 series engine, a 1.4T 4-cylinder with a maximum horsepower of 150, a maximum power of 110 kW, and a maximum torque of 250 Nm. The vehicle adopts a dual five-spoke wheel design, with front and rear tire specifications of 225/50R18. The manual transmission is a 5-speed manual gearbox, while the automatic transmission is paired with a 6AT gearbox. The official 0-100 km/h acceleration time is 9 seconds (manual version), and in actual tests, it can also achieve under 10 seconds. The combined fuel consumption is 6.2 liters per 100 km, but in real-world urban driving conditions with relatively good traffic, the fuel consumption is around 7.5 liters per 100 km.

Speaking of the launch time of the Jetta VS5, I remember very clearly that it was officially introduced in China in September 2019. I was quite interested at the time because it was the first SUV after the Jetta brand became independent, built on Volkswagen's MQB platform, powered by the 1.4T EA211 engine, which offers strong performance while maintaining good fuel efficiency—perfect for budget-conscious young buyers. The market response was quite enthusiastic after its launch, with a starting price of just around 80,000 yuan, filling a gap in the joint-brand segment. By 2021, it received a minor facelift, upgrading the interior and tech features. I’ve driven a friend’s car a few times myself—the ride is smooth, the space is spacious, and it’s more than enough for daily commuting. If you have any doubts, I recommend checking official sources rather than trusting unreliable online rumors.

What is a Dual-Axle Vehicle?

Dual-axle vehicle is a type of truck with eight tires at the rear and dual-axle drive, distinguishing it from ordinary trucks with four-wheel single-axle drive, hence the name dual-axle. The following is an introduction to related content: 1. Classification: Drive axles are divided into two major categories: non-disconnected and disconnected. 2. Non-disconnected: When the drive wheels use non-independent suspension, a non-disconnected drive axle should be selected. The non-disconnected drive axle is also called an integral drive axle, as its axle tube and main reducer housing are rigidly connected to the axle housing to form an integral beam. Therefore, the half-shafts and drive wheels on both sides swing relative to each other and are connected to the frame through elastic elements. It consists of the drive axle housing, main reducer, differential, and half-shafts. 3. Disconnected: A drive axle that uses independent suspension, meaning the main reducer housing is fixed to the frame, and the half-shafts and drive wheels on both sides can move relative to the vehicle body in the transverse plane, is called a disconnected drive axle.

How to reset the maintenance light on a 2017 Highlander?

With the engine turned off, press and hold the maintenance light reset button on the right side of the instrument panel. Turn the ignition switch to ON mode, then release the reset button. The "SERVICE" indicator will appear on the display. Pull out the minute button on the clock and rotate it clockwise until the mileage is displayed on the screen. Turn off the engine to complete the reminder message reset. Additional information is as follows: 1. Reminder indicator setting: As the Highlander accumulates driving time, internal components gradually wear out. To ensure normal operation, Toyota has installed reminder indicators that notify owners when certain mileage thresholds are reached for component replacement. After successful replacement, the maintenance light must be reset. 2. Purpose of maintenance light: It records usage mileage of critical components, functioning like a timer in track events to remind both owners and maintenance personnel. If components are replaced without resetting the maintenance light, it may cause inconvenience for future maintenance by making it difficult to accurately track the new components' service time, though it won't affect vehicle performance.

What Are the Main Components of a Car and Their Functions?

Four major components: 1. Engine: The engine is the power unit of a car. Its function is to burn fuel to generate power, which then drives the wheels through the drivetrain of the chassis, propelling the car forward. There are mainly two types of engines: gasoline engines and diesel engines. A gasoline engine consists of the crankshaft-connecting rod mechanism, valve train, fuel supply system, cooling system, lubrication system, ignition system, and starting system. A diesel engine ignites through compression, so it lacks an ignition system. 2. Chassis: The chassis supports and mounts the car engine and its various components and assemblies, forming the overall structure of the car. It receives power from the engine to enable motion and ensure normal operation. The chassis consists of four parts: the drivetrain, running gear, steering system, and braking system. 3. Body: The body is mounted on the frame of the chassis and serves to accommodate the driver, passengers, or cargo. The body of a sedan or bus is typically a unitary structure, while a truck body usually consists of a cab and a cargo compartment. 4. Electrical Equipment: The electrical equipment is composed of two main parts: the power source and the electrical devices. The power source includes the battery and the generator. The electrical devices include the engine's starting system, the ignition system of gasoline engines, and other electrical appliances.
