Is it necessary to maintain a car after driving it for half a year?

Yes. Car inspection and maintenance are routine and important tasks. If there are no specific issues or faults, regular inspection and maintenance are sufficient. Car owners are aware that maintenance requirements are based on either mileage or driving time, whichever comes first. The mileage requirement varies by vehicle model, ranging from over 5,000 kilometers to over 10,000 kilometers, while the time requirement is generally the same—around six months. Use compressed air to blow dust out of the air filter; replace the fuel filter and clean the filter screen at the pipeline connection in a timely manner; replace the engine oil and oil filter. For domestic cars, it is also necessary to clean the coarse oil filter, fuel pre-filter, and centrifugal fine filter. Check the battery terminals for signs of corrosion. Rinse the battery surface with hot water to remove any corrosion from the terminals. Measure and adjust the specific gravity of the battery electrolyte. Check and replenish the coolant, and clean the exterior of the radiator. Especially during the cold winter months, antifreeze coolant is essential—not only does it prevent freezing, but it also protects the engine radiator and reduces corrosion. Regularly inspect tire wear and rotate the tires as needed. Check the wheel hub and bearing preload; if there is any play, adjust the preload as soon as possible. Check and adjust the working stroke of the handbrake lever; check and adjust the clearance of the drum-type handbrake shoes; check and adjust the free travel of the foot brake pedal; inspect the wear of the brake shoes—replace them if they reach the wear indicator mark; check and adjust the clearance of the wheel brake shoes; check and replenish the brake fluid, etc.

Can non-vehicle owners apply for ETC?

Non-owners can also apply for ETC. According to the "Implementation Plan for Accelerating the Application Service of Electronic Non-stop Toll Collection on Expressways" issued by the Ministry of Transport, the original valid ID card of the vehicle owner, the original and a copy of the vehicle registration certificate are required. The page of the registration certificate with the most recent annual inspection stamp should be provided. If applying on behalf of someone else, the original valid ID card and a copy of the agent are also required. If applying for ETC through major bank branches, a debit card or credit card from the corresponding bank is also needed. Some banks only support ETC binding with credit cards, while others may require freezing a certain amount as a deposit when binding ETC with a debit card. ETC Deduction Principle: There will be one or more ETC lanes on the expressway. Through the dedicated short-range microwave communication between the on-board electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane of the toll station, and using computer networking technology for back-end settlement with the bank, the purpose of paying tolls without stopping at the toll station is achieved. All of this is based on the principle of passing first and deducting fees later. Benefits of Installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and eco-friendly: Green and low-carbon, vehicles pass through toll stations without stopping, reducing noise and exhaust emissions, and minimizing pollution; Reduced wear and tear: Saves costs, reduces the frequency of vehicle starts and brakes, and lowers wear and fuel consumption; Improved efficiency: The theoretical efficiency of ETC lanes can be increased by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC updates faster and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More policy support: The State Council clearly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Comprehensive Transportation System" that "by 2020, the interoperability of transportation cards in key city clusters will be basically achieved, and the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC will be significantly increased." It also explicitly set the goal in the "13th Five-Year" comprehensive transportation development indicators that "by 2020, the ETC usage rate for road passenger vehicles will reach 50%." More future possibilities: In addition to continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and usage and the ETC usage rate for passenger vehicles, the future will also promote the use of ETC for trucks and explore the deep integration of the ETC system with smart transportation development directions such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-road coordination, providing comprehensive travel services for vehicle owners. This means more application scenarios will support ETC applications. ETC Usage Notes: The ETC transaction sensing area is 8 meters. When encountering a stationary vehicle ahead, to prevent the ETC device of the preceding vehicle from malfunctioning or not having an ETC device at all, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the preceding vehicle to avoid automatic sensing and paying for the preceding vehicle. The recognition speed for ETC lanes is 20 km/h. If the speed is too fast, the vehicle device information cannot be read, which will also lead to deduction failure. Unauthorized disassembly or movement of the OBU device, or detachment or loosening of the ETC electronic tag, will cause the electronic tag to fail. It can be sent to the bank where the ETC card was issued or the expressway service office for testing. If the loosening or detachment is not man-made, it only needs to be reactivated. When using a debit card bound to ETC, insufficient balance will also cause deduction failure. Follow the guidance of on-site staff to use the manual MTC lane and pass by cash or card. Poor sensing due to overly thick car windshields. Especially for vehicles that have had accidents and had their windshields replaced, or those who have modified their front windshields, need to be cautious.

What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the BMW i3?

BMW i3's 0-100 km/h acceleration time is 7.3 seconds. The power output method of pure electric vehicles is different from conventional internal combustion engine vehicles. Typical gasoline and diesel engines need to reach a certain RPM to output maximum torque, but electric motors don't require this - when the accelerator pedal is fully depressed, the electric motor can immediately deliver maximum torque. The BMW i3 uses more compact aluminum alloy wheels. Inside the vehicle, the interior design of the BMW i3 is very similar to the MINI Clubman, emphasizing practicality. To make it appear visually larger, it features a wider front windshield.
