Automotive distance sensors are typically installed at the rear of the vehicle. They consist of components such as ultrasonic sensors, controllers, and displays or buzzers. Below is more information about distance sensors: 1. Distance sensors, also known as displacement sensors, are a type of sensor used to detect the distance between them and an object to perform a preset function. They have a wide range of applications. 2. Automotive distance sensors are used in adaptive cruise systems to detect the distance between the vehicle ahead and the host vehicle, enabling follow-up functionality. This allows the vehicle to accelerate or decelerate based on the speed of the vehicle ahead. 3. If a vehicle is detected ahead while driving at a set speed, the vehicle will reduce its speed to a certain level based on the speed of the vehicle ahead, maintaining a preset distance.

Does the Jetta VS5 require 95 octane gasoline?

According to the official vehicle manual recommendation, the Jetta VS5 should use 95 octane gasoline. In addition to checking the appropriate gasoline grade in the vehicle manual, the Jetta VS5 can also refer to the label on the fuel tank cap. Typically, the gasoline grade can also be determined based on the engine's compression ratio. Vehicles with an engine compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should use 92 octane gasoline, while those with a compression ratio between 10.0-11.5 should use 95 octane gasoline. However, with the application of new technologies, the compression ratio alone cannot determine the required gasoline grade. High compression ratio engines can also be tuned to use lower octane gasoline due to other influencing factors such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology. Generally, the higher the gasoline octane number, the higher the octane value and the better the anti-knock performance. 92 octane gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 octane gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. If the Jetta VS5 occasionally uses the wrong gasoline grade, simply switch back to the correct grade after consumption. However, long-term use of the wrong gasoline grade can have the following effects: For vehicles recommended to use lower octane gasoline, using higher octane gasoline will not cause damage, but the increase in octane value may alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This results in reduced engine power and thermal efficiency, manifesting as poorer performance. For vehicles recommended to use higher octane gasoline, using lower octane gasoline can cause engine knocking. The significantly lower octane value reduces the fuel's ignition point, causing premature ignition during the compression stroke. If combustion occurs before the spark plug ignites, resistance will arise during the upward stroke. This resistance makes the engine run very unstably. Mild knocking only increases noise without obvious engine damage, while noticeable knocking indicates severe engine conditions, affecting not only driving stability but also causing abnormal wear on pistons and cylinders, and even cylinder scoring in severe cases.

Which is more practical, the Bora or the Sagitar?

If considering the practicality of the car, the Bora performs better. The differences between the Bora and the Sagitar are as follows: 1. Body dimensions: The Sagitar's body dimensions are 4753*1800*1462mm, with a wheelbase of 2731mm, while the Bora's body dimensions are 4663*1815*1462mm, with a wheelbase of 2688mm. Comparatively, the Sagitar has larger overall dimensions and a longer wheelbase, offering better presence and passenger space. 2. Powertrain: The Sagitar currently offers two engine options: a 1.2T and a 1.4T, both paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Bora provides a 1.5L and a 1.4T engine, with the former matched to a 6AT transmission and the latter to a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Sagitar's low-power version has slightly higher specifications, and its main sales model is the 1.4T version, while the Bora's main sales model is the 1.5L version.

What is the average fuel consumption per 100 kilometers for a car?

Generally speaking, a 1.0L displacement car consumes about 5 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers; a 1.5-1.6L displacement car consumes about 7 liters; a 1.8L displacement car consumes about 10 liters; and a 2.0L displacement car consumes about 10-12 liters. SUVs with the same displacement tend to have higher fuel consumption than sedans, so these figures are only a reference range. Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers refers to the amount of fuel a vehicle consumes when driving a certain distance at a specific speed. The formula to calculate fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is: Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers = Volume of fuel consumed (liters) ÷ Distance traveled (kilometers) × 100. The fuel consumption of a car is directly influenced by five main factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase fuel consumption include: Driving habits: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because higher displacement usually means greater power output, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier cars also consume more fuel because greater weight demands higher driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on unpaved roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous terrain increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases aerodynamic resistance, leading to higher fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily during cold starts, requiring more fuel for combustion, which increases consumption. Additionally, in cold weather, the engine's computer may control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, further increasing fuel consumption.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Audi A6L in liters?

The fuel tank capacity of the Audi A6L is 73 liters, as officially announced. Owners of the Audi A6L can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The recommended fuel grade for the Audi A6L is 95, with a fuel consumption of 6.8 to 8L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of approximately 913 to 1073 kilometers. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically done by observing the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel mid-journey. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified tank capacity is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, with additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This extra space accommodates fuel expansion due to temperature increases, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount may exceed the marked capacity.
