Southeast DX5's three major components: the engine is produced by Shenyang Aerospace Mitsubishi; the transmission comes from Japan's Aisin; and the chassis is sourced from Hyundai of South Korea. Below is relevant information about the Southeast DX5: 1. Powertrain: The Southeast DX5 is equipped with Mitsubishi's all-aluminum 4A91 MIVEC engine and the 4A91T MIVEC turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 115/5600 kW/rpm and a maximum torque of 225/2000-4000 N·m/rpm. It is paired with Belgium's PUNCH third-generation 8-speed CVT automatic transmission, Aisin's 6-speed manual transmission, and a 5-speed manual transmission. 2. Dimensions: The Southeast DX5 is not very large in size, with a length of only 4406mm, a width of 1840mm, a height of 1654mm, and a wheelbase of 2615mm. The height can reach 1680mm when equipped with a roof rack.

Speaking of the production locations of the three major components of the Southeast DX5, I recall from a technical perspective that they are all manufactured in China, particularly concentrated in the Fuzhou factory. The engine is a 1.5-liter turbocharged unit, primarily independently developed and produced by Southeast, completed at the Fuzhou base, with reliable craftsmanship and some early technology inspired by Mitsubishi. In terms of the transmission, there are both manual and CVT options, with CVT components possibly sourced from Germany but assembled locally in Fuzhou, ensuring smooth gear shifts. The chassis is an original design by Southeast, produced in the Fuzhou workshop, with good support and a stable driving feel. One of the reasons for choosing the DX5 is its high localization rate, which reduces costs without sacrificing performance, making maintenance simple and cost-effective—a wise choice for buyers seeking value for money.

What does the term 'Type II chassis' mean?

Type II chassis refers to an automotive chassis that comes with a cab. There are two key points to consider during chassis inspection: 1. Check for rust: The chassis operates under extremely harsh conditions, making it highly susceptible to damage and corrosion. During rainy weather, the chassis is directly exposed to water; in snowy conditions, it comes into contact with freezing snow; and on rough mountain roads, it endures the torment of gravel and other harsh elements. These specific road conditions can cause significant damage to the chassis. Therefore, regularly inspecting the chassis for rust is one of the essential steps to effectively protect it. 2. Inspection of chassis-mounted equipment: The chassis carries many critical vehicle components, with the exhaust assembly being one of the key inspection items. Although part of the exhaust assembly is located in the engine compartment, most of it is mounted on the chassis. Hence, during a chassis inspection, it's also important to assess the safety of related components. The inspection of the exhaust pipe primarily involves checking for any signs of leaks.

Is 180,000 kilometers considered high mileage for a used car?

For a used car, 180,000 kilometers may be considered relatively high mileage if it's a private vehicle, but it might be considered relatively low if it's a taxi. Below is relevant information about used car transactions: 1. Content: The main aspects of used car transactions include pre-evaluation work, technical condition assessment, consignment sales, exchange services, price evaluation, and transaction procedures; 2. Procedures: Vehicle-related procedures, maintenance and repair records, and tax payment documents. Among the vehicle-related procedures, there are three main certificates, the most common being the "People's Republic of China Motor Vehicle Driving License" issued by the vehicle management authority, as well as the vehicle ownership certificate issued by the vehicle management office, similar to a property deed, known as the "People's Republic of China Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate"; Maintenance and repair records refer to the documentation of the vehicle's maintenance and repair history once it enters the usage phase; Tax payment documents refer to the various taxes and fees paid after the vehicle is registered and starts being used, including vehicle insurance purchases.

How many kilometers can a 100-liter gas tank run?

100-liter gas tank can run 50,000 kilometers. The following is relevant information about natural gas vehicles: 1. Introduction: Natural gas vehicles are cars that use natural gas as fuel to provide power. Natural gas contains more than 90% methane, making it an excellent fuel for car engines. Natural gas vehicles have been widely promoted and applied in the automotive field; 2. Features: Vehicles that can burn compressed natural gas or gasoline are called compressed natural gas-gasoline dual-fuel vehicles, abbreviated as CNG vehicles. The pressure of compressed natural gas for vehicles is generally around 20MPa. Natural gas can be obtained through dehydration, desulfurization purification, and multi-stage compression. It is used in a gaseous state. It burns stably without causing knocking, and allows for easy cold and hot starts. Additionally, the storage, transportation, decompression, and combustion of compressed natural gas are carried out under strict sealing conditions, making leaks unlikely. Furthermore, the gas cylinders undergo various special destructive tests, ensuring safety and reliability.

Is 10L/100km Considered High Fuel Consumption?

Whether 10L/100km is considered high fuel consumption depends on the situation. For a compact family car with a small-displacement naturally aspirated engine, this fuel consumption would be considered high. However, for a mid-to-large-sized SUV equipped with a large-displacement naturally aspirated or turbocharged engine, this fuel consumption would not be considered high. There are three methods to reduce a vehicle's fuel consumption: 1. Minimize the vehicle's weight: Keep the interior as simple as possible and avoid carrying unnecessary items, as every additional kilogram increases fuel consumption by 1%; 2. Avoid excessive modifications: Adding spoilers, protective covers, or wings can disrupt the original aerodynamic design, increasing wind resistance and consuming extra fuel. Modifying lighting systems can increase electrical load and lead to unnecessary fuel consumption; 3. Develop good driving habits: Avoid sudden acceleration, driving at high speeds in low gears, prolonged idling, frequent lane changes, or braking. Aim for smooth starts, steady-speed driving, and reduced braking.

What does 101y tire mean?

101y tire refers to the tire load capacity and speed rating parameters. Below is relevant information about automotive tires: 1. Introduction: A tire is a circular elastic rubber product mounted on metal rims that rolls on the ground and is assembled on various vehicles or machinery. It supports the vehicle body, cushions external impacts, achieves contact with the road surface, and ensures the vehicle's driving performance. Tires are often used under complex and harsh conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and high/low-temperature effects during operation. Therefore, they must possess high load-bearing performance, traction performance, and cushioning performance. 2. Basic functions: Tires are one of the most important components of a vehicle. Their main functions include supporting the entire weight of the vehicle and bearing the vehicle's load; transmitting traction and braking torque to ensure adhesion between the wheels and the road surface; reducing and absorbing vibrations and impacts during driving to prevent severe vibrations and early damage to vehicle components; adapting to the vehicle's high-speed performance while reducing driving noise; and ensuring driving safety, handling stability, comfort, and energy efficiency.

How Long Can the Oxygen in a Car Last for One Person?

In a car, the oxygen can last for about ten hours for one person. Below is a detailed introduction: 1. Introduction One: A normal adult (weighing approximately 60 kg) breathes about 15~20 times per minute at rest, with each breath involving about 250 milliliters of air. Body weight and activity level can affect the volume of air per breath. 2. Introduction Two: Generally, the interior volume of a car is about 3 cubic meters (3000 liters). Based on the normal oxygen content in air, 3000 liters of air contain approximately 630 liters of oxygen. Under safe conditions, the actual usable oxygen for normal breathing in the car is only 150 liters. If an adult breathes 20 times per minute, they consume 250 milliliters (0.25 liters) of oxygen per minute.
